AFAICT libdrm doesn't read from the struct drm_amdgpu_gem_va it passes to the ioctl after the latter returns though.

Also, while amdgpu_gem_va_ioctl (the ioctl implementation in the kernel) modifies the struct:

	args->va_address &= AMDGPU_GMC_HOLE_MASK;

that looks like an implementation detail which could be avoided if necessary, and shouldn't be propagated back to user space.


I'd suggest fixing libdrm to use drmCommandWrite instead.
