[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v3 05/12] drm/i915/guc: Add a second client, to be used for preemption

Michał Winiarski michal.winiarski at intel.com
Wed Oct 25 20:00:13 UTC 2017


From: Dave Gordon <david.s.gordon at intel.com>

This second client is created with priority KMD_HIGH, and marked
as preemptive. This will allow us to request preemption using GuC actions.

v2: Extract clients creation into a helper, debugfs fixups. (Michał)
Recreate doorbell on init. (Daniele)
Move clients into an array.

v3: And move clients back from an array, to get rid of the enum (Michał)
