[PATCH v2 2/9] drm/vc4: Add a BO cache.
From: Eric Anholt
Date: Tue Dec 08 2015 - 13:31:23 EST
We need to allocate new BOs in the kernel as part of each frame, but
the CMA allocator is way too slow for that. As an optimization, keep
track of recently-freed BOs and reuse them, with a 1 second timeout to
fully free them back to the system.
This improves 3D performance by about 15%.
