Inspired by the recent ppgtt regression report, where switching of dmar only for the gpu seems to fix things completely, I've looked again at the semaphores+vt-d situation. Contrary to my earlier testing a few months back my system is now stable with dmar disabled for the igd, and not only when disabling dmar completely. So I'm rather hopeful that all our recent fixes for snb have changed things for code and it's time to try enabling semaphores again. We've also had issues with enabling semaphores which are not vt-d related, but I guess these are all fixed by the autoreport-disabling and lazy request fix. And there's only one way to find out whether there are still other issues ... When I've tried to apply this patch I've noticed that semaphores on gen6 have already silently been enabled in commit 2911a35b Author: Ben Widawsky <ben@bwidawsk.net> Date: Thu Apr 5 14:47:36 2012 -0700 drm/i915: use semaphores for the display plane Fix this up by only checking whether dmar is enabled on the gfx (not on the entire system).
