That's the sacrifice, we have to stop sending commands to the GPU and wait for it complete those in flight (quite frequently).

Not really, you have to predict when a VUE being used by the end of the pipeline will be overwritten by a new rectangle at the start of the pipeline. This is completely internal state - the primitive command we want to feed to the GPU can contains thousands of rectangles. Instead of counting rectangles, you want to start counting fragments (actually texel reads since that will be the ratelimiting factor) and flush if we queue up too much work for the GPU. If you also model how fast the gpu is retiring fragments so that you can predict how much work is in flight, you could further reduce flushes... We still need to stop the gpu and wait for it to complete. No matter how finely you do it, it will sacrifice throughput and latency. It's a workaround. I still live in hope that after all these years we missed some configuration detail required for gen4. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098489 Title: [gen4] Corruption in Chrome omni bar results using Intel SNA To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1098489/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
