There is a problem with kbl up to rev E0 where a heavy memory/fabric traffic from adjacent engine(s) can cause an engine reset to fail. This traffic can be from normal memory accesses or it can be from heavy polling on a semaphore wait. For engine hogging causing a fail, we already fallback to full reset. Which effectively stops all engines and thus we only add a workaround documentation. For the semaphore wait loop poll case, we add one microsecond poll interval to semaphore wait to guarantee bandwidth for the reset preration. The side effect is that we make semaphore completion latencies also 1us longer. v2: Let full reset handle the adjacent engine idling (Chris) v3: Skip render engine (Joonas), please checkpatch on define (Mika) References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106684 References: VTHSD#2227190, HSDES#1604216706, BSID#0917 Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Reviewed-by: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20180607172444.17080-1-mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
