(patch: 0009-Install-passive-default.patch) 82609c7) Separate Adaptive engine and GDDV [Test Plan] Test1, * Run game on the target machine. * the FPS must not be significantly reduced. Test2, * Run on others platform, ADL/TGL/CML/CFL/KBL. * Use monitoring tool(e.g. s-tui) and stress-ng to verify if the machine runs normally. [Where problems could occur] * better support for Passive Policy. currently passive policy 1 is supported and it should have a bug if the machine only enable pssive policy 2. ~~~ I got a new game and started playing it It would run at over 100 FPS solidly some of the time and then cyclically dip down to below 20 FPS for a few minutes I determined that it was thermald trying to keep my GPU below 70°C to determine this I sudo systemctl stop thermald The game ran solidly and consistently with the GPU at 75°C This is well below the specs set by the manufacturer and perhaps unreasonably low for a laptop But more importantly I was given no indication this was happening. I had to sleuth it out myself. Perhaps it is impossible to determine good defaults for all hardware, I don't know. However without an indication that this is happening there will be a lot of people with a mysteriously broken experience. This was extremely difficult for me to find and I had several friend who are experts on linux gaming and video drivers trying to track this down. I discovered it by luck and perseverance. This absolutely needs some sort of indication and hopefully a way to remedy it from the GUI. ideally it would set thermal limits that are more in line with what the device is designed for and not a conservative default if at all possible.
