Hi all,
Would anyone know that does Adreno 430 support preemption? And what about 530?
So far, what I got is it seems that Adreno 530 supports GPU preemption, but not Adreno 430.
Thanks in advance.

Hi there. If you look at the MSM8994 kernel, it would appear that there is no support for GPU Preemption: https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/kernel/msm-3.10/tree/drivers/gpu/m...
On other kernels such as MSM8976, the Adreno 430 GPU advertises Preemption: https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/kernel/msm-3.10/tree/drivers/gpu/m...
I am unsure if hardware support is there, but Preemption does not seem to be supported in the KGSL driver on MSM8994.
