Re: [Intel-gfx] [PATCH] agp/intel: Reinforce the barrier after GTT updates

[Andi Shyti <andi@etezian.org>]

Hi Chris,

> After changing the timing between GTT updates and execution on the GPU,
> we started seeing sporadic failures on Ironlake. These were narrowed
> down to being an insufficiently strong enough barrier/delay after
> updating the GTT and scheduling execution on the GPU. By forcing the
> uncached read, and adding the missing barrier for the singular
> insert_page (relocation paths), the sporadic failures go away.
