[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 15/18] radeonsi: upload constants into VRAM instead of GTT

Thu Feb 16 12:53:07 UTC 2017


From: Marek Olšák <marek.olsak at amd.com>

This lowers lgkm wait cycles by 30% on VI and normal conditions.
The might be a measurable improvement when CE is disabled (radeon)
or under L2 thrashing.
