It only depends on the CPU access pattern, not what > radeonsi sees. What I mean is keeping track of the total size of resources which have RADEON_DOMAIN_VRAM and RADEON_FLAG_CPU_ACCESS set, and if it exceeds a threshold, create new ones having those flags in GTT instead. Even though this might not be strictly necessary with amdgpu in the long run, it probably is for radeon anyway, and in the short term it might help even with amdgpu. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer
