From 7ac7d19f808697abe6658c64c96868f728273f9c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Wilson Date: Sun, 17 Apr 2016 20:42:46 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Avoid stalling on pending flips for legacy cursor updates MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The legacy cursor ioctl expects to be asynchronous with respect to other screen updates, in particular page flips. As X updates the cursor from a signal context, if the cursor blocks then it will stall both the input and output chains causing bad stuttering and horrible UX.
