That's true, but for now we are stuck with the implicit sync for quite
a number of use cases.
My problem is rather that we already tried this and it backfired
immediately.
I do remember that it was your patch who introduced the pipeline sync
flag handling and I warned that this could be problematic. You then
came back with a QA result saying that this is indeed causing a huge
performance drop in one test case and we need to do something else.
Together we then came up with the different handling between implicit
and explicit sync.
Isn't pipeline sync flag to fix some issue because of parralel execution
between jobs in one pipeline? I really don't have this memory in mind
why that's realted to this, Or do you mean extra sync hides many other
potential issues?
Anyway, when I go through Vulkan WSI code, the synchronization isn't so
smooth between OS window system. And when I saw Jason drives explicit
sync through the whole Linux ecosystem like Android window system does,
I feel that's really a good direction.

But I can't find that stupid mail thread any more. I knew that it was
a couple of years ago when we started with the explicit sync for Vulkan.

Not sue if this is right direction, I think usermode wants all
synchronizations to be explicit. Implicit sync often confuses people
who don’t know its history. I remember Jason from Intel is driving
explicit synchronization through the Linux ecosystem, which even
removes implicit sync of shared buffer.

and implicit sync (v2)
Hi,
This enables a full pipeline sync for implicit sync. It's Christian's
patch with the driver version bumped. With this, user mode drivers
don't have to wait for idle at the end of gfx IBs.
Any concerns?
Thanks,
Marek
