Yes, and exactly that is intended here.

See for programming the MC and filling the page tables you handle this 
as if there isn't a hole in the address space.

Only when you start to use the address from userspace you will find that 
you need to sign extend bit 47 into bits 48-63.

Applying the AMDGPU_VA_HOLE_MASK to and address masks out the upper 16 
bits and so removes the sign extension again.

The masking just removes the sign extension which created the hole in 
the first place.

The VM and MC is programmed as if there isn't a hole.

We check above if vm_size is larger than AMDGPU_VA_HOLE_START, in other 
words larger than 0x8000000000.

Since vm_size is once more in the value range the MC expects it (without 
the hole) that should give us the right result to sign extend bit 47 
into bits 48-63, e.g. 0xffff800000000.


And yes that initially confused me as well. Especially that you need to 
program the MC and fill the page tables as if there wouldn't be a hole 
in the address space.

Applying "& AMDGPU_VA_HOLE_MASK" and "| AMDGPU_VA_HOLE_END" just 
converts between the representation with and without the hole in it.

Christian.
