[TTM] Out of kernel memory The direct reason is GTT BO swap out failure which results from more Bo allocation. And along with that need more acc_size. But why swap out failure I am not sure that is expected here for this case, maybe need to investigate.

Before, I had [drm] amdgpu: 3072M of GTT memory ready. now it's [drm] amdgpu: 10473M of GTT memory ready. While running piglit, there's lots of [TTM] Out of kernel memory messages, followed by more badness, and eventually the machine becomes inaccessible via SSH and has to be hard rebooted. It occurred to me one thing not being taken into account here is that system memory is also needed for storing the contents of BOs evicted from VRAM. So I tried subtracting the VRAM size, resulting in [drm] amdgpu: 8425M of GTT memory ready. but the problem still happened. So I tried 1/2 instead of 3/4 of RAM, resulting in [drm] amdgpu: 6982M of GTT memory ready. and was able to finish a piglit run with that. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer
