[Bug 1401788] Re: backport BDW/CHV sna BLT fix

 

Timo,

Can you fill out the an SRU justification to make it clear why this fix
needs to be SRUed? In addition I see three patches identified in
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79053#c76) do all three
need to be backported?

** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification:
+ [Impact]
+ Users of hardware with affected Intel graphics can experience graphics issues.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Run affected hardware and ensure it doesn't glitch.
+ 
+ [Fix]

-     sna: gen8 BLT broken when address has bit 4 set
-     
-     With bit 4 set in address, the gen8 blitter fails and blits errorneously
-     into the cacheline preceeding the destination and similarly when reading from
-     the source, corrupting memory.
-     
-     v2: Update the destination base offset pattern as revealed
-         by igt/tests/gem_userptr_blits/destination-bo-align
-     
-     v3: Check base address as well
