That sounds a roughly doable plan to me , although we didn't hit this issue in our virtualization stress test but like a possible issue. >>> So the ring test above got stuck if no ib to alloc. Why there is IB alloc happened in ring test ? I remember there is no IB allocated for ring test, are you referring to IB test ? _____________________________________ Monk Liu|GPU Virtualization Team |AMD -----Original Message----- From: amd-gfx <amd-gfx-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> On Behalf Of xinhui pan Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2020 10:02 AM To: amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Deucher, Alexander <Alexander.Deucher@xxxxxxx>; Kuehling, Felix <Felix.Kuehling@xxxxxxx>; Pan, Xinhui <Xinhui.Pan@xxxxxxx>; Koenig, Christian <Christian.Koenig@xxxxxxx> Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/2] add direct IB pool druing gpu recovery, we alloc ibs for ring tests to test if recovery succeed or not. As gpu recovery parked the gpu scheduler thread, any pending jobs hold the ib resource has no chance to free. So the ring test above got stuck if no ib to alloc. If we schedule IBs directly in job_submit_direct, we can alloc ibs in the new ib pool. It should have less contention. If the IB could be freed in time, IOW, not depending on any scheduler, nor any other blocking code. It is better to alloc ibs in direct pool. xinhui pan (2): drm/amdgpu: add direct ib pool drm/amdgpu: use new job alloc variation if possible drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu.h | 1 + drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_cs.c | 2 +- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ib.c | 12 ++++++++++-- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_job.c | 8 +++++++- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_job.h | 3 ++- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_jpeg.c | 2 +- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c | 2 +- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_uvd.c | 2 +- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_vce.c | 4 ++-- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_vcn.c | 6 +++--- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_vm_sdma.c | 3 ++- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/uvd_v6_0.c | 4 ++-- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/uvd_v7_0.c | 4 ++-- 13 files changed, 35 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) -- 2.17.1 _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flists.freedesktop.org%2Fmailman%2Flistinfo%2Famd-gfx&data=02%7C01%7Cmonk.liu%40amd.com%7C1f5b1a3ba10a452c9de608d7d129b396%7C3dd8961fe4884e608e11a82d994e183d%7C0%7C0%7C637207850237679644&sdata=cS7S7a8gDmIgyJNbr4qXSPMZTLwKz0W429Z%2F2Zo6gek%3D&reserved=0 _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
