[Bug 1839750] Re: 40% performance loss in Mesa with Linux 5.0

2019-08-15 Thread Kon
Tested additional mainline kernels installed via UKUU. 4.19.66 LTS
worked great. So did 4.20.17, the last in its series. The performance
regression appeared when I tested 5.0.3, and as noted above, still
persists in 5.2.8.

This may be a mainline kernel bug, but I'll leave it open here for
further input. I'm a complete layman in this area.

** Description changed:

  Mesa's RADV performance has dropped nearly 40% across multiple
  applications since upgrading my HWE kernel to 5.0.0-23.
  
  Reverting to the 4.18 kernel fixed the issue. The problem was still
- present when testing kernel 5.2.8 from the Ubuntu mainline PPA.

This issue persisted with the 5.0.0-25 kernel update. I later tested
again after updating Mesa to 19.0.8. No change.
