The specs are a bit unclear whether the per-plane trickle feed disable control exists on VLV. There is another trickle feed disable control in the MI_ARB register. After some experimentation it turns out both the DSPCNTR trickle feed bits and the MI_ARB bit can be toggled. However the DSPCNTR bits don't seem to have any effect. The MI_ARB bit, on the other hand, has a noticable effect. I performed an experiment where I reduced the FIFO size via DSPARB and observed the effect of the MI_ARB trickle feed bit on the display. Using a 1920x1080-60 mode, with MI_ARB=0x4 the display started to have problems with DSPARB=0x42424242, whereas with MI_ARB=0x0 the problems didn't start until DSPARB=0x09090909. This seems to confirm that the MI_ARB trickle feed bit actually does work. So replace the use of the DSPCNTR trickle feed bits with MI_ARB on VLV. v2: Amend commit message with results from experimentation Signed-off-by: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> |

************************************************************ * 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
