The default case leaves the buffer object mapped in error.
Add amdgpu_bo_kunmap() to that case to ensure the mapping is cleaned up.
Mhm, good catch. But why do you want to do this in the first place?
I'm not sure I understand the question.
Any mapping of memory should be paired with an unmapping when no longer needed.
And this is supported by the call to amdgpu_bo_kunmap() in the other
non-default cases.
Do you believe the mapping is not needed?
No, the unmapping is not needed here. See the function amdgpu_bo_kmap(), it
either creates the mapping or return the cached pointer.
Ah I missed that. Thanks.
A call to amdgpu_bo_kunmap() is only done in a few places where we know that
the created mapping most likely won't be needed any more. If that's not done
the mapping is automatically destroyed when the BO is moved or freed up.
I mean good bug fix, but you seem to see this as some kind of prerequisite
to some follow up work converting TTM to use kmap_local() which most likely
won't work in the first place.
Sure. I see now that it is more complicated than I thought but I never thought
of this as a strict prerequisite. Just something I found while trying to
figure out how this works.
How much of a speed up is it to maintain the ttm_bo_map_kmap map type?
Good question. I don't really know.
This used to be pretty important for older drivers since there the
kernel needs to kmap individual pages and patch them up before sending
the command stream to the hardware.
It most likely doesn't matter for modern hardware.
Could this all be done with vmap and just remove the kmap stuff?
Maybe, but I wouldn't bet on it and I don't really want to touch any of
the old drivers to figure that out.

NOTE: It seems like this function could use a fair bit of refactoring
but this is the easiest way to fix the actual bug.
