Chris Wilson 0d90ccb702 drm/i915: Delay semaphore submission until the start of the signaler
Currently we submit the semaphore busywait as soon as the signaler is
submitted to HW. However, we may submit the signaler as the tail of a
batch of requests, and even not as the first context in the HW list,
i.e. the busywait may start spinning far in advance of the signaler even
starting.

If we wait until the request before the signaler is completed before
submitting the busywait, we prevent the busywait from starting too
early, if the signaler is not first in submission port.

To handle the case where the signaler is at the start of the second (or
later) submission port, we will need to delay the execution callback
until we know the context is promoted to port0. A challenge for later.

sation on gen8+")

README

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.
