From b52b89da097896ac265d1f875aeb0bfd92a9dd38 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Wilson Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2013 11:43:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Add a tracepoint for using a semaphore MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit So that we can find the callers who introduce a ring stall. A single ring stall is not too unwelcome, the right issue becomes when they start to interlock and prevent any concurrent work. That, however, is a little tricker to detect with a mere tracepoint! v2: Rebrand it as a ring event, rather than an object event. v3: Include the seqno in the tracepoint for posterity or something.
