The GRBM register interface is now capable of bursting 1 cycle per
register wr->wr, wr->rd much faster than previous muticycle per
transaction done interface. This has caused a problem where status
registers requiring HW to update have a 1 cycle delay, due to the
register update having to go through GRBM.
SW may operate on an incorrect value if they write a register and
immediately check the corresponding status register.
Registers requiring HW to clear or set fields may be delayed by 1 cycle.
For example,
1. write VM_INVALIDATE_ENG0_REQ mask = 5a
2. read VM_INVALIDATE_ENG0_ACK till the ack is same as the request mask = 5a
a. HW will reset VM_INVALIDATE_ENG0_ACK = 0 until invalidation is complete
3. write VM_INVALIDATE_ENG0_REQ mask = 5a
4. read VM_INVALIDATE_ENG0_ACK till the ack is same as the request mask = 5a
a. First read of VM_INVALIDATE_ENG0_ACK = 5a instead of 0
b. Second read of VM_INVALIDATE_ENG0_ACK = 0 because
the remote GRBM h/w register takes one extra cycle to be cleared
c. In this case, SW will see a false ACK if they exit on first read

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
