From a54b1873c0e3ffec3041cf72cb10d986d6bc4fe5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Wilson Date: Fri, 24 Nov 2017 13:00:30 +0000 Subject: drm/i915: Use exponential backoff for wait_for() MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Instead of sleeping for a fixed 1ms (roughly, depending on timer slack), start with a small sleep and exponentially increase the sleep on each cycle. A good example of a beneficiary is the guc mmio communication channel. Typically we expect (and so spin) for 10us for a quick response, but this doesn't cover everything and so sometimes we fallback to the millisecond+ sleep. This incurs a significant delay in time-critical operations like preemption (igt/gem_exec_latency), which can be improved significantly by using a small sleep after the spin fails. We've made this suggestion many times, but had little experimental data to support adding the complexity. v2: Bump the minimum usleep to 10us on advice of Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt (Tvrko) v3: Specify min, max range for usleep intervals -- some code may crucially depend upon and so want to specify the sleep pattern.
