Re: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: only use kernel zone if need_dma32 is not required

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

 



TTM itself has some logic for need_dma32 and TTM_PAGE_FLAG_DMA32. I 
believe that should already handle this. need_dma32 is passed from 
amdgpu to ttm_bo_device_init to bdev->need_dma32. ttm_tt_create 
translates that to page_flags |= TTM_PAGE_FLAG_DMA32 and passes that to 
bdev->driver->ttm_tt_create. The two page allocators in ttm_page_alloc.c 
and ttm_page_alloc_dma.c check ttm->page_flags. Is that chain broken 
somewhere? Overriding glob->mem_glob->num_zones from amdgpu seems to be 
a bit of a hack.
