Subject: [PATCH 10/18] drm/i915: Forgo last_fence active request tracking
Date: Mon, 12 Aug 2019 14:39:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190812133915.18824-10-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190812133915.18824-1-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>

We were using the last_fence to track the last request that used this
vma that might be interpreted by a fence register and forced ourselves
to wait for this request before modifying any fence register that
overlapped our vma. Due to requirement that we need to track any XY_BLT
command, linear or tiled, this in effect meant that we have to track the
vma for its active lifespan anyway, so we can forgo the explicit
last_fence tracking and just use the whole vma->active.

Another solution would be to pipeline the register updates, and would
help resolve some long running stalls for gen3 (but only gen 2 and 3!)
