In libdrm-amdgpu and amdgpu kernel driver, there are only such priority level: AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_VERY_LOW, AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_LOW, AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_NORMAL, AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_HIGH, AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_VERY_HIGH If priority value is not the one of the above data, the kernel will treat it as invalid. If you set prority to HIGH or VERY_HIGH, please make sure the process have CAP_SYS_NICE capability or DRM_MASTER permission.
