Testcase: igt/drv_hangman As it turns out, that is pretty much the only way we can observe this bug. (At least not without drinking more than one cup of tea.) You could construct something to try and overwrite the reader on another engine, tricky to observe though. However, it is the goal of selftests/live_coherency and gem_exec_flush to try and catch this type of error, so should try harder. -Chris _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
