Good catch, but I'm not sure if this is enough to make it work.

Additional to that I don't think we have an use case for BOs > 4GiB.

>4GB buffer is normal for compute applications, the issue is reported by "Maelstrom generated exerciser detects micompares when GPU accesses larger remote GPU memory." on GFX 9.4.3 APU, which uses GTT domain to allocate VRAM, and trigger the bug in this drm prime helper. With this fix, the test passed.


Why is the application allocating all the data as a single BO?

Usually you have a single texture, image, array etc... in a single BO but this here looks a bit like the application tries to allocate all their memory in a single BO (could of course be that this isn't the case and that's really just one giant data structure).

Swapping such large BOs out at once is quite impractical, so should we ever have an use case like suspend/resume or checkpoint/restore with this it will most likely fail.
