From 5b2d4a169830c10dd5bfc4c72ddd94ef80e658d3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vadim Savchuk Date: Tue, 21 Sep 2010 19:11:40 +0300 Subject: STORM-163 FIXED Intermittent FPS drop related to "audio" (main thread hangs often on openal lock) Submitting a patch made by Aleric Inglewood (See VWR-14914). This bug happens for a lot of people, although it might be needed to have a fast multi core machine. I have seen it on 1.22.10 once, never used 1.23 sorry, and saw it often on snowglobe. I am sure it also affects 1.23 but I'd have to test that. The symptons are that on a viewer with normally a good, high FPS, sometimes it happens that the FPS dramatically drops (as low as 0.3, but it can also be anything higher, as high as 10, say). This particular jira is about a problem where the main thread is slowed down by a mutex lock in libopenal (most calls starting with 'al' in indra/llaudio/audioengine_openal.cpp and one in indra/llaudio/listener_openal.cpp). You can see that this is the case by opening the Frame Console (control-shift-2) and checking that the "audio" (and possibly misc) timings are very large compared to the Render time. --- indra/newview/llviewermessage.cpp | 8 +++----- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) (limited to 'indra/newview/llviewermessage.cpp') diff --git a/indra/newview/llviewermessage.cpp b/indra/newview/llviewermessage.cpp index c35173a7d4..2f3aeec9b3 100644 --- a/indra/newview/llviewermessage.cpp +++ b/indra/newview/llviewermessage.cpp @@ -4213,13 +4213,11 @@ void process_preload_sound(LLMessageSystem *msg, void **user_data) // Don't play sounds from a region with maturity above current agent maturity LLVector3d pos_global = objectp->getPositionGlobal(); - if( !gAgent.canAccessMaturityAtGlobal( pos_global ) ) + if (gAgent.canAccessMaturityAtGlobal(pos_global)) { - return; + // Add audioData starts a transfer internally. + sourcep->addAudioData(datap, FALSE); } - - // Add audioData starts a transfer internally. - sourcep->addAudioData(datap, FALSE); } void process_attached_sound(LLMessageSystem *msg, void **user_data) -- cgit v1.2.3
