(talking about BDW only) For the render ring: HWSP: 4KB Ring context: CTX_SIZE[26:24] 5 cache lines -> offsets (in DW) 0x0 to 0x4f (= 5 * 64 / 4) Render context: CTX_SIZE[23:16] -> 0x65 caches lines -> offets (in DW) 0x50 to 0x69f (= 0x50 + 0x65 * 64 / 4 - 1) VF/VFE context CTX_SIZE[7:0] -> 0x82 cache lines -> offsets (in DW) 0x6A0 to 0xebf (= 0x6a0 + 0x82*64/4 - 1) Atomic storage is the max that you can allocate, 32KB ie 8192 DWords So we're almost there. What's missing here is the RS context size, couldn't find it in the spec :/ Maybe because that is a "well known" value. Note that I don't actually know what we read back from hw. Considering that the BCS context size seems to be 2 pages, I think it's worth digging a bit more to save ~66KB per BCS context (for instance). Even if we have to hardcode the different context sizes. -- Damien _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
