From c3211ae093751fe1e144a96768dcb12af1a3a613 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Turner Date: Mon, 1 Aug 2016 12:18:45 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] i965: Disable the unlit centroid workaround on Gen7. Once upon a time (commit 8313f44409) Paul added code for the unlit centroid workaround (WaCopyUnlitCentroidBarys). His commit message claims it fixed the EXT_framebuffer_multisample/interpolation {2,4} {centroid-deriv,centroid-deriv-disabled} piglit tests but does not say on which platform, though he cites the IVB PRM. "3DSTATE_WM [DevIVB, DevHSW]" says "[DevIVB]: Workaround: When Centroid Barycentric mode is required, HW may produce incorrect interpolation results when a 2X2 pixels have unlit pixels." I later disabled it for Haswell (commit f6db414f3c) with no known ill effects. The Sandybridge page does not have this text, but the workarounds database (see WaCopyUnlitCentroidBarys) says the issues applies *only* to Sandybridge, and in fact in commit 1a2de7dce8fc I note that disabling the workaround on Sandybridge causes the tests Paul originally mentioned to fail. So this is, and always has been, a huge confusing mess. Disabling the workaround indeed causes the tests Paul originally mentioned to fail on Sandybridge but not on Ivybridge/Baytrail.
