As Ville points out, it's possible/probable we don't actually need this. Potentially, this validates the letter of the spec, and not the spirit. Ville: > I discussed this on irc w/ Ben, and I was suggesting we don't need to > poll. Polling apparently can be used as a workaround for certain > hardware issues, but it looks like those issues shouldn't affect us, > for the momemnt at least. So my suggestion was to try w/o polling > first (since there could be some power cost to polling) and add the > poll bit if problems arise. Rodrigo: Spec suggests this as an W/A for GT3. However semaphores didn't worked in my BDW GT2 on Signal Mode. So pool mode is definitely needed.

************************************************************ * For the very latest on DRI development, please see: * * http://dri.freedesktop.org/ * ************************************************************ The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI). The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major ways: 1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via the use of an optimized two-tiered lock. 2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to restricted regions of memory. 3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context switch. 4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module. Documentation on the DRI is available from: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=387 http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/ For specific information about kernel-level support, see: The Direct Rendering Manager, Kernel Support for the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/drm_low_level.html Hardware Locking for the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/hardware_locking_low_level.html A Security Analysis of the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/security_low_level.html
