[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/6] drm/i915: Retire requests along rings

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk
Mon Apr 23 10:13:56 UTC 2018


In the next patch, rings are the central timeline as requests may jump
between engines. Therefore in the future as we retire in order along the
engine timeline, we may retire out-of-order within a ring (as the ring now
occurs along multiple engines), leading to much hilarity in miscomputing
the position of ring->head.

As an added bonus, retiring along the ring reduces the penalty of having
one execlists client do cleanup for another (old legacy submission
shares a ring between all clients). The downside is that slow and
irregular (off the critical path) process of cleaning up stale requests
after userspace becomes a modicum less efficient.

In the long run, it will become apparent that the ordered
ring->request_list matches the ring->timeline, a fun challenge for the
future will be unifying the two lists to avoid duplication!
