At all? Or only on newer hardware? And as a genuine spec change or as a bug / workaround?

If the hardware has re-purposed the bit then it is probably worth at least adding a comment to the bit definition to say that it is only valid up to IP version 12.70.
At this point, this is a bug on MTL since this bit is not related to L3 flushes as per spec. Regarding older platforms, still checking the reason why this was added (i.e if it fixed something and will regress if removed). If not, we can extend the change for others as well in a separate patch. On older platforms, this bit seems to cause an implicit flush at best.

PIPE_CONTROL_DC_FLUSH_ENABLE for that purpose.

Why stop at 12.71? Is the meaning only changed for 12.70 and the old/correct version will be restored in later hardware?

Was trying to keep this limited to MTL for now until the above statements are verified.

If we don't need it for MTL, we are most likely not going to need it after MTL too. It should be fine if you make it >= MTL until

we get more clarity about lower platforms.


With that,  this is
