From: Chris Wilson Date: Wed, 12 Oct 2016 12:48:24 +0000 (+0100) Subject: drm/i915: Treat a framebuffer reference as an active reference whilst shrinking X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=45353ce59b3ec606e0a35386ac04210b1656e829;p=linux-beck.git drm/i915: Treat a framebuffer reference as an active reference whilst shrinking Treat a framebuffer reference with the same priority as an active reference whilst shrinking. Framebuffers are likely to be reused and typically cost more to migrate to and from GPU memory (on LLC architectures we need to clflush), so defer the temptation to purge them during a kswapd run until we have run out of cheap buffers.
