Re: [PATCH 2/2] drm/amdgpu: remove sorting of CS BOs

Hello Christian ,

As per below comment  large buffer eviction is more expensive. So
removing this code will solve the same problem?

-               /* Sort the buffer list from the smallest to largest buffer,
-                * which affects the order of buffers in the LRU list.
-                * This assures that the smallest buffers are added first
-                * to the LRU list, so they are likely to be later evicted
-                * first, instead of large buffers whose eviction is more
-                * expensive.
-                *
-                * This slightly lowers the number of bytes moved by TTM
-                * per frame under memory pressure.
-                */
-               list_sort(NULL, &parser->validated, cmp_size_smaller_first);
-

Thanks,
Ayyappa.
