This way, the Vulkan float priority value can easily be converted to the integer priority value, and the actual range of priorities used on the kernel side can be changed arbitrarily without breaking userspace. > So my original purpose is directly use Priority enum defined in PAL, > [...] I don't think it's a good idea to let PAL dictate UAPI. >>> diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_object.c >>> b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_object.c >>> index fd9c4beeaaa4..c85304e03021 100644 >>> --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_object.c >>> +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_object.c >>> @@ -494,8 +494,9 @@ static int amdgpu_bo_do_create(struct >>> amdgpu_device *adev, >>> bo->tbo.bdev = &adev->mman.bdev; >>> amdgpu_bo_placement_from_domain(bo, bp->domain); >>> + bo->tbo.priority = bp->priority; >>> if (bp->type == ttm_bo_type_kernel) >>> - bo->tbo.priority = 1; >>> + bo->tbo.priority = TTM_BO_PRIORITY_VERYHIGH; >> if (bp->type == ttm_bo_type_kernel) >> bo->tbo.priority = TTM_BO_PRIORITY_VERYHIGH; >> else >> bo->tbo.priority = bp->priority; >> >> would be clearer I think. > Agree. Another question is whether userspace should be allowed to set the same priority as the kernel? I'm inclined to say no, there should be a separate priority for the kernel. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | https://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
