    Why need this driver parameter? kfd has KFD_IOCTL_SVM_ATTR_GRANULARITY api that allows user space to set migration granularity per prange. If both got set which will take precedence?

    Ramesh: Use of Kfd Ioctl is available to users of registered memory. It allows users to control GOBM per buffer level, including overwriting default value. For ranges that do not specify GOBM, the default value will be found.

If user space use KFD_IOCTL_SVM_ATTR_GRANULARITY it will overwrite this parameter value for a prange, then how to know which granularity take effect? That is decided when user set this parameter and when the api got used.

Ramesh: The value bound by Kfd ioctl will take effect. In the life cycle of a prange it can go from the default value to one that is set by user via set_attr() call. However, it is generally understood that that users of set_attr() will not call it directly i.e. the rely on higher level apis from ROCr or HIP.

driver parameter can be set at run time, not only at boot time. It is not predictable  when user set this driver parameter and when the api got called.

I don't think this is a problem. The module parameter determines the granularity if the application doesn't set the virtual address range attribute. The default is captured in the per-process svms structure. So all mappings of the same process will use the same default, even if the module parameter is changed after the process is started. The get_attr ioctl will always return the actual granularity, no matter whether it comes from the default or was overridden by user mode for the virtual address range.

My concern is there are two ways to set pragne's granularity, both can be used at run time. It can make confusion to know which one take effect as user can use driver parameter and api to change granularity with any timing.

Ramesh: Users of this capability are expected to understand as to how this parameter works. Having said a brief documentation of how this param works could be written and attached to documentation. Hopefully users will find this additional  documentation helpful

        The param GOBM refers to granularity of buffer migration, and is

        specified in terms of log(numPages(buffer)). It facilitates users of

        unregistered memory to control GOBM, albeit at a coarse level
