This patch sequence adds the ability to retry pinning in execbuffer when one of the pin operations returns -ENOMEM. We unpin all of the buffers and then clear the GTT before trying again, with the hope that we'll eliminate any fragmentation this way.
Along the way, there are patches which finish the work of splitting the various domain setting functions apart. This sequence renames set_domain to set_to_gpu_domain reflecting its new limited role. There is also a patch which eliminates any potential interruption between the new domain computation and the flush operations needed to effect those new domain changes. With this sequence in place, I can (occasionally) run virtual forbidden city, an application which routinely uses 100MB+ of aperture space for a single operation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list Dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
