Greeting,
FYI, we noticed a -36.0% regression of phoronix-test-suite.supertuxkart.1024x768.Windowed.Basic.1.OldMine.frames_per_second due to commit:
commit: 98479ada421a8fd2123b98efd398a6f1379307ab ("drm/i915/gt: Treat idling as a RPS downclock event")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master
in testcase: phoronix-test-suite
on test machine: 4 threads Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7567U CPU @ 3.50GHz with 32G memory
with following parameters:
need_x: true
test: supertuxkart-1.5.2
option_a: Windowed
option_b: Basic
option_c: 1
option_d: Old Mine [Approximately 90k triangles]
cpufreq_governor: performance
ucode: 0xd6
test-description: The Phoronix Test Suite is the most comprehensive testing and benchmarking platform available that provides an extensible framework for which new tests can be easily added.

Where's the power consumption graph? You have a benchmark that although
is running faster than the display is failing to keep the GPU busy. That
alone says there is a latency issue along the GL paths. Is papering over
an issue in command submission worth the power cost?
