Execlists uses a scheduling quantum (a timeslice) to alternate execution between ready-to-run contexts of equal priority. This ensures that all users (though only if they of equal importance) have the opportunity to run and prevents livelocks where contexts may have implicit ordering due to userspace semaphores. The timeslicing mechanism can be compiled out with ./scripts/config --set-val DRM_I915_TIMESLICE_DURATION 0 The timeslice duration can be adjusted per-engine using, /sys/class/drm/card?/engine/*/timeslice_duration_ms Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Steve Carbonari <steven.carbonari@intel.com> Tested-by: Steve Carbonari <steven.carbonari@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20200228131716.3243616-3-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk |
