Hi, It's Power results on IVB mobile. With the patches, workloads would cost more power. mobile IVB workloads git-53749d3 git-53749d3 with four patches Patches VS no Patch Average watt Watt-hour Time Average watt Watt-hour Time Average watt Watt-hour idle 25.6 3.7 9′ 25.7 3.8 9

[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: Boost RPS frequency for CPU stalls

2013-08-26 Thread Chris Wilson
If we encounter a situation where the CPU blocks waiting for results from the GPU, give the GPU a kick to boost its the frequency. This should work to reduce user interface stalls and to quickly promote mesa to high frequencies - but the cost is that our requested frequency stalls high (as we do n
