Some engines are never user or already sitting idle in the kernel context and for those we can skip flushing the current context for i915_gem_switch_to_kernel_context(). We used to perform this optimisation but that was removed for convenience of converting over to multiple timelines and handling the pending request queues. From the perspective of writing selftests, reducing the number of background operations on the engines makes defining assertions easier.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
