I was thinking along the lines of if it was just busy/unavailable for the first 33ms that particular time, it just needed to sleep until ready. Once available, the next request ran in the expected 1ms. Do you not see any value in trying a sleeping loop? Perhaps compromise and have the preempt-disable timeout increase each iteration. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
