Changes to let KFD use render node VMs

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

 



Hi David,

Compute contexts enable the compute power profile, and can use a different VM update mode from graphics contexts (SDMA vs. CPU). These differences are not going away. Not yet, anyway. If we start sharing VM address space between graphics and compute in the future, this will have to change. That is, these features would have to be controlled by other means than by the vm context.

Regards,
  Felix

Hi Felix,

Out of patches, Could I ask what the difference of  AMDGPU_VM_CONTEXT_COMPUTE/GFX is?

After you merge kfd_vm to amdgpu_vm, does the difference still exist?


Thanks,

David Zhou

Hi Christian,

I have a working patch series against amd-kfg-staging that lets KFD use
VMs from render node FDs, as we discussed. There are two patches in that
series that touch amdgpu_vm.[ch] that I'd like your feedback on before I
commit the changes to amd-kfd-staging and include them in my upstream
patch series for KFD GPUVM support. See attached.

Thanks,
  Felix
