Ok, I've looked like a dofus again, but now I've read the spec and we indeed seem to need a synchronous readout of the TIMESTAMP register. I guess a new register will do, together with some fixed-point integer that tells userspace how to convert it to nanoseconds. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Mail: [email protected] Mobile: +41 (0)79 365 57 48 _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
