Almost from the outset for execlists, we used deferred allocation of the logical context and rings. Then we ported the infrastructure for pinning contexts back to legacy, and so now we are able to also implement deferred allocation for context objects prior to first use on the legacy submission. v2: We still need to differentiate between legacy engines, Joonas is fixing that but I want this first ;) (Joonas) Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Cc: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20170427104651.22394-1-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk Reviewed-by: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com>
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.
