Author: Michel Dänzer <[email protected]> Date: Fri Oct 2 15:55:05 2020 +0200 loader/dri3: Allocate up to 4 back buffers for page flips With swap interval 0, i.e. sync-to-vblank disabled. This can be necessary for unthrottled drawing with Xwayland: 1) One buffer can be scanned out 2) One buffer can be pending in the kernel for a page flip 3) One buffer can be pending in the Wayland compositor Therefore, with 3 buffers, the frame-rate could be capped much lower than the throughput the GPU is capable of, in the worst case at the Wayland compositor refresh rate. (The native Wayland EGL backend always uses up to 4 buffers) Leave the maximum number of buffers at 3 for swap interval != 0, it's sufficient in that case to always be able to queue one frame ahead of time. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1455 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1462 Cc: mesa-stable Reviewed-by: Eric Anholt <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Adam Jackson <[email protected]> Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/7033> --- src/loader/loader_dri3_helper.c | 25 ++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/loader/loader_dri3_helper.c b/src/loader/loader_dri3_helper.c index 1cb482d674d..82b8cbaaafe 100644 --- a/src/loader/loader_dri3_helper.c +++ b/src/loader/loader_dri3_helper.c @@ -275,10 +275,29 @@ static void dri3_update_max_num_back(struct loader_dri3_drawable *draw) { switch (draw->last_present_mode) { - case XCB_PRESENT_COMPLETE_MODE_FLIP: - /* Leave cur_num_back unchanged, it'll grow as needed */ - draw->max_num_back = 3; + case XCB_PRESENT_COMPLETE_MODE_FLIP: { + int new_max; + + if (draw->swap_interval == 0) + new_max = 4; + else + new_max = 3; + + assert(new_max <= LOADER_DRI3_MAX_BACK); + + if (new_max != draw->max_num_back) { + /* On transition from swap interval == 0 to != 0, start with two + * buffers again.
