This defines a new pre-RA scheduling mode similar to BRW_SCHEDULE_PRE
but more aggressive at optimizing for minimum latency rather than
minimum register usage. The main motivation is that on recent xe3
platforms we use a register allocation heuristic that packs variables
more tightly at the bottom of the register file instead of the
round-robin heuristic we used on previous platforms, since as a result
of VRT there is a parallelism penalty when a program uses more GRF
registers than necessary. Unfortunately the xe3 tight-packing
heuristic severely constrains the work of the post-RA scheduler due to
the false dependencies introduced during register allocation, so we
can do a better job by making the scheduler aware of instruction
latencies before the register allocator introduces any false
dependencies.
This can lead to higher register pressure, but only when the scheduler
decides it could save cycles by extending a live range. It makes
sense to preserve the preexisting BRW_SCHEDULE_PRE as a separate mode
since some workloads can still benefit from neglecting latencies
pre-RA due to the trade-off mentioned between parallelism and GRF use,
a future commit will introduce a more accurate estimate of the
expected relative performance of BRW_SCHEDULE_PRE
vs. BRW_SCHEDULE_PRE_LATENCY taking into account this trade-off.
In theory this could also be helpful on earlier pre-xe3 platforms, but
the benefit should be significantly smaller due to the different RA
heuristic so it hasn't been tested extensively pre-xe3.

`Mesa <https://mesa3d.org>`_ - The 3D Graphics Library ====================================================== Source ------ This repository lives at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa. Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported. Build & install --------------- You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.rst <https://docs.mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use Meson (`docs/meson.rst <https://docs.mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_): .. code-block:: sh $ meson setup build $ ninja -C build/ $ sudo ninja -C build/ install Support ------- Many Mesa devs hang on IRC; if you're not sure which channel is appropriate, you should ask your question on `OFTC's #dri-devel <irc://irc.oftc.net/dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if necessary. Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might take a while before someone qualified sees your question. To figure out who you're talking to, or which nick to ping for your question, check out `Who's Who on IRC <https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/WhosWho/>`_. The next best option is to ask your question in an email to the mailing lists: `mesa-dev\@lists.freedesktop.org <https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev>`_ Bug reports ----------- If you think something isn't working properly, please file a bug report (`docs/bugs.rst <https://docs.mesa3d.org/bugs.html>`_).
