[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: Make request's wait-for-space explicit

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk
Fri Nov 10 22:09:52 UTC 2017


At the start of building a request, we would wait for roughly enough
space to fit the average request (to reduce the likelihood of having to
wait and abort partway through request construction). To achieve we
would try to begin a 0-length command packet, this just adds extra
confusion so make the wait-for-space explicit, as in the next patch we
want to move it from the backend to the i915_gem_request_alloc() so it
can ensure that the wait-for-space is the first operation in building a
new request.
