Workstation application ANSA/META get this error dmesg:
[drm:amdgpu_gem_va_ioctl [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Couldn't update BO_VA (-16)

This is caused by:
1. create a 256MB buffer in invisible VRAM
2. CPU map the buffer and access it causes vm_fault and try to move
       it to visible VRAM
3. force visible VRAM space and traverse all VRAM bos to check if
       evicting this bo is valuable
4. when checking a VM bo (in invisible VRAM), amdgpu_vm_evictable()
       will set amdgpu_vm->evicting, but latter due to not in visible
       VRAM, won't really evict it so not add it to amdgpu_vm->evicted
5. before next CS to clear the amdgpu_vm->evicting, user VM ops
       ioctl will pass amdgpu_vm_ready() (check amdgpu_vm->evicted)
       but fail in amdgpu_vm_bo_update_mapping() (check
       amdgpu_vm->evicting) and get this error log

This error won't affect functionality as next CS will finish the
waiting VM ops. But we'd better make the amdgpu_vm->evicting
correctly reflact the vm status and clear the error log.
Well NAK, that is intentional behavior.

The VM page tables where considered for eviction, so setting the flag is
correct even when the page tables later on are not actually evicted.

But this will unnecessarily stop latter user VM ops in ioctl before CS
even when the VM bos are not evicted.
Won't this have any negative effect when could do better?
No, this will have a positive effect. See the VM was already considered
for eviction because it is idle.

Updating it immediately doesn't necessarily make sense, we should wait
with that until its next usage.

Additional to that this patch doesn't really fix the problem, it just
mitigates it.

Eviction can fail later on for a couple of reasons and we absolutely
need to check the flag instead of the list in amdgpu_vm_ready().
The flag only for both flag and list? Looks like should be both as
the list indicate some vm page table need to be updated and could
delay the user update with the same logic as you described above.
I think checking the flag should be enough. The issue is that the list
was there initially, but to avoid race conditions we added the flag with
separate lock protection later on.

But list and flag does not align always, there are cases like
list-empty/flag-set (this problem) and list-non-empty/flag-unset (non-vm bo
eviction). If only check flag list-non-empty/flag-unset change behavior.

Yeah, but I think that the flag unset list-non-empty case would be correctly handled if we only test the flag.

In other words we can update the page tables as long as they are not partially or fully evicted and that's not the case when non-vm BOs are evicted.

What we should rather do is to fix amdgpu_vm_ready() to take a look at
the flag instead of the linked list.
