Subject: Re: [PATCH] drm/ttm: check if free mem space is under the
lower limit
Am 22.02.2018 um 11:10 schrieb Roger He:
the free mem space and the lower limit both include two parts:
system memory and swap space.
For the OOM triggered by TTM, that is the case as below:
first swap space is full of swapped out pages and soon system memory
also is filled up with ttm pages. and then any memory allocation
request will run into OOM.
to cover two cases:
a. if no swap disk at all or free swap space is under swap mem
limit but available system mem is bigger than sys mem limit,
allow TTM allocation;
b. if the available system mem is less than sys mem limit but
free swap space is bigger than swap mem limit, allow TTM
allocation.
v2: merge two memory limit(swap and system) into one
v3: keep original behavior except ttm_opt_ctx->flags with
TTM_OPT_FLAG_FORCE_ALLOC
v4: always set force_alloc as tx->flags & TTM_OPT_FLAG_FORCE_ALLOC
v5: add an attribute for lower_mem_limit

What is that shift good for?
Because the unit of lower_mem_limit is 4KB, so (val << 2) can get KB for consistent with other parameters as below(all are showed with KB bytes.):

Dito?
Covert from KB to 4K page size here.

Mhm, I fear we need to set this to zero by default.
Do you mean: glob->lower_mem_limit = 0 ?
I don't get your point here. Then how amdgpu set it with above value to prevent OOM?
We can't activate that by default because most use cases actually need the OOM behavior.
So this should only be active for the customers especially requesting it.
We have another option: only enable this feature for AMDGPU.
By default we set glob->lower_mem_limit as above rather than zero, but we add extra condition check as below in ttm_dma_populate/ttm_pool_populate:
if ((ttm->page_flags & TTM_PAGE_FLAG_NO_RETRY) &&
ttm_check_under_lowerlimit(mem_glob, ttm->num_pages, ctx))
return -ENOMEM;
because only AMDGPU set TTM_PAGE_FLAG_NO_RETRY by default.
Which options do you prefer?
Yeah, thought about that as well but I don't think we can do this.
Going a step further I actually think we should make the
TTM_PAGE_FLAG_NO_RETRY depend on the limit and not set it by amdgpu any
more.
But that can come later on.

Christian.
