I may try to test Nouveau later on. > Nouveau+Intel combo doesn't work because of [1] that says: "Refuse to fault imported pages. This should be handled (if at all) by redirecting mmap to the exporter." [1] https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.19/source/drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_bo_vm.c#L154 Interestingly, I noticed that there are IGT tests which check prime mmaping of Nouveau+Intel [2] (added 9 years ago), but they fail as well, as expected. The fact that IGT has such tests is interesting because it suggests that the mapping worked in the past. It's also surprising that nobody cared to fix the failing tests. For the reference, I checked v5.18 and today's linux-next.

Although, it should be risking to map pages using a different caching attributes (WC) from the exporter, which is prohibited on ARM ad then one may try to map imported udmabuf. Apparently, the Intel DG TTM driver should be able to map imported dma-buf because it sets TTM_TT_FLAG_EXTERNAL_MAPPABLE. Overall, it still questionable to me whether it's worthwhile to allow the mmaping of imported GEMs since only Panfrost/Lima can do it out of all drivers and h/w that I tested. Feels like drivers that can do the mapping have it just because they can and not because they need. -- Best regards, Dmitry
