Running a shader for 10s and monopolizing the gpu might be ok in a stress tests, but it's definitely not ok by default on a normal system. -Daniel

Point was to decay faster than 'loop detection' (-2) but slower than kicking (+5) to keep the score decaying even if there is one 'loop detection' per batch. The criticism about pipe control (patch 1/4) is warranted as it just happens to help now when the synchronization happens on ring, and thus only helps with batches that follow this pattern wrt pipe control. I will post a patch that tries to achieve more generic way by inspecting subunit states if head seems to be stuck, so that substitutes 1/4. And also makes 4/4 even more moot. There is not much to salvage in this series so please ignore. Thanks, -Mika > -Chris > > -- > Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre

We decay hangcheck score, instead of setting it to zero, when seqno moves forward. This was added as mechanism to detect batches full of invalid waits. But with multiple runs of very intensive batches (shader tests), the score accumulates even without wait/kick pairs only by engine being active inside shader loops multiple times in succession. Prevent this mechanism to falsely trigger on loops by decaying faster than we accumulate during active looping.
