What exactly does 'silently drop all commands' mean?
It means that when I look at the transactions on the bus (using the PCIe
analyzer instrument), I see that the GPU pulls the stuff from the ring
(read transactions come from GPU and completions come from the host), but
I see no posted writes in the upstream that correspond to GPU writing to
host memory.
Did you notice the following in i2f():
fraction = (input & 0x3fff) << 10; /* cheat and only
handle numbers below 2^^15
*/
I suspect that should say 2^14, as 16384 == 0x4000, which results in 0
for the above assignment.
Thanks for pointing this out. This could be the possible root cause. I'll
see if i2f can be easily extended to support up to 2^15 range (I am not
good at doing floating point representation in my head, so I need to write
out things on paper to make sure, first). If yes, I'll fix i2f. If not,
the existing patch will still be the reasonable fix.
