The current somewhat strange logic is in place because certain
GL unit tests for large textures can cause problems with the
OOM killer since there is no way to link this memory to a
process. The problem is this limit is often too low for many
modern games on systems with more memory so limit the logic to
systems with less than 8GB of main memory. For systems with 8
or more GB of system memory, set the GTT size to 3/4 of system
memory.
Well, I've been railing against this limit for years, and was always
told it's unchangeable for reasons. So we found other ways to use more
system memory in ROCm. Good to see that I'm no longer the only one who
thinks this GTT limit is a problem.
