The GRBM register interface is now capable of bursting 1 cycle per register wr->wr, wr->rd much faster than previous muticycle per transaction done interface. This has caused a problem where status registers requiring HW to update have a 1 cycle delay, due to the register update having to go through GRBM. For cp ucode, it has realized dummy read in cp firmware.It covers the use of WAIT_REG_MEM operation 1 case only.So it needs to call gfx_v10_0_wait_reg_mem in gfx10. Besides it also needs to add warning to update firmware in case firmware is too old to have function to realize dummy read in cp firmware. For sdma ucode, it hasn't realized dummy read in sdma firmware. sdma is moved to gfxhub in gfx10. So it needs to add dummy read in driver between amdgpu_ring_emit_wreg and amdgpu_ring_emit_reg_wait for sdma_v5_0.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
