That is what Mika looked at, setting C0 while the GPU is marked busy. Iirc, he was satisfied with the result, I just objected on the grounds that keeping the CPU at max frequency was unlikely to win any friends in HTPC. (Although, maybe my gut feeling here is backwards and killawatt reports differently.) > CPU while gpu is busy, could you, please, clarify what exactly and > point me to the code/key patches?

Basically you do pm_qos_update_request() from i915_request::mark_busy(). -Chris _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
