I just came across an interesting looking errata... From the Sandybridge PRM, Volume 2 Part 1, Section 5.5.1 "Partial Object Removal": "An object is considered ‘partial’ if the last vertex of the primitive topology is encountered (i.e., PrimEnd is set) before a complete set of vertices for that object have been received. Given that only LINESTRIP and TRISTRIP primitive types are subject to CLIP unit partial object removal, the only supported cases of partial objects are 1-vertex LINESTRIPs and 1 or 2-vertex TRISTRIPs. [errata DevSNB]: Possible hang if final output from GS kernel is 2 vertex triangle. If it is possible for the final output from GS kernel to be a 2 vertex triangle, then have the GS kernel always output an extra single vertex triangle as the final output." Do you think this could be related? It's a SNB specific hang closely tied to triangle strips, which sounds promising, but the symptoms don't sound quite right either... --Ken
