Re: [PATCH] drm/amdkfd: ignore userptr NUMA auto balancing event

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

 



MMU_NOTIFY_PROTECTION_VMA is not specific to NUMA auto-balancing. It can
also be the result of an mprotect system call which actually makes the
VMA read-only. I don't think it's OK to ignore that notifier in the
general case.
