For local-memory objects we need to align the GTT addresses to 64K, both
for the ppgtt and ggtt.

Do we still need this with relocations removed? Userspace is picking all
the addresses for us, so all we have to check is whether userspace got it
right.

Yeah, for OFFSET_FIXED this just validates that the provided address is
correctly aligned to 64K, while for the in-kernel insertion stuff we still
need to allocate an address that is aligned to 64K. Setting the alignment
here handles both cases.

Can't we just teach any in-kernel allocators to align to 2M and call it a
day? Ofc the code can still validate we don't have bugs (always good to
check your work). Ofc if the benefits is "no code can be removed anyway
since we still need to check" then ofc no point :-)

Yeah, if we want to make it 2M, then we still need to add that here, like with 64K.


Just want to make sure we're not carrying complexity around for nothing,
since this predates the relocation removal.

If we were to just make everything 2M then we can in theory ditch all the colouring stuff. Assuming userspace is happy with 2M or nothing, then it just means potentially terrible utilisation of the ppGTT for the kernel, but maybe that doesn't matter much really? For userspace maybe they will have some kind of sub-allocation scheme?

Well actually I guess it would be 2M alignment + 2M vma padding for anything that can be placed in I915_MEMORY_CLASS_DEVICE, including mixed objects. And then the usual 4K alignment for I915_MEMORY_CLASS_SYSTEM only objects.
