[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 0/3] GEM BO padding to find OOB buffer writes

2017-12-13 Thread kevin . rogovin
From: Kevin Rogovin This patch series adds a new debug option to pad each GEM BO allocated by the brw_bufmgr with pseudo-(weak) random noise values which are then checked after each batchbuffer dispatch to the kernel. This can be quite valuable to find diffucult to track down heisenberg style bug
