The engine provides a mirror of the CSB in the HWSP. If we use the cacheable reads from the HWSP, we can shave off a few mmio reads per context-switch interrupt (which are quite frequent!). Just removing a couple of mmio is not enough to actually reduce any latency, but a small reduction in overall cpu usage. Much appreciation for Ben dropping the bombshell that the CSB was in the HWSP and for Michel in digging out the details. v2: Don't be lazy, add the defines for the indices. v3: Include the HWSP in debugfs/i915_engine_info v4: Check for GVT-g, it currently depends on intercepting CSB mmio v5: Fixup GVT-g mmio path v6: Disable HWSP if VT-d is active as the iommu adds unpredictable memory latency. (Mika) v7: Also markup the CSB read with READ_ONCE() as it may still be an mmio read and we want to stop the compiler from issuing a later (v.slow) reload.

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.
