[PATCH 3/9] drm/amdgpu: add amdgpu module parameter for zfb

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Feifei,

mhm, so you're approach is to limit the memory the Linux kernel grab 
using the mem= parameter and then give that memory to amdgpu, correct?

If that's the case then this is most likely a NAK. Cause this sounds 
like a perfect example for the CMA.

Never worked with that subsystem before, but in theory you should be 
able to give the cma=1G parameter to the kernel and by doing so you 
reserve 1GB of contiguous memory for use by device drivers.

Going to dig a bit deeper into that and trying to find to documentation 
about it,
Christian.
