[Intel-gfx] [PATCH igt] lib: Force global reset + uevents for hang detector

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk
Mon Jun 5 11:05:09 UTC 2017


The hang detector relies on a uevent for notification and aborting the
test. As proposed, fine-grained resets may not produce a global uevent
and so this hang detection becomes void. As we don't expect any hang, we
can just reduce the reset to only a global + uevent and so maintain
functionality, and switch back to fine-grained resets afterwards.

Note that any test that requires testing fine-grained resets should
ensure that they are enabled first as igt may leave the global
parameters in an inconsistent state.
