I'm testing whether disabling fbc when fb is busy helps on my troublesome SNB. But X can and will still access the scanout through a fence, so we can't simply abolish setting up fences here. The other recourse is to always used a shadow buffer so that we never access the scanout directly, and perhaps restrict that to only use render as well. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
