I do agree with you in that perhaps too many things change across successive patches in the series. I think I can explain this because of the way the series has evolved thorugh successive revisions. In the last one of them, only the first three patches were present, and both Liviu and Boris seemed happy with the shape they had taken, but then Boris suggested adding the sysfs knob and optional profiling support rather than submitting them as part of a different series like I had done in Panfrost. In that spirit, I decided to keep the first three patches intact. The last two patches are a bit more of an afterthought, and because they touch on the drm fdinfo core, I understood they were more likely to be rejected for now, at least until consensus with Tvrtko and other people involved in the development of fdinfo had agreed on a way to report internal bo sizes. However, being also part of fdinfo, I thought this series was a good place to spark a debate about them, even if they don't seem as seamlessly linked with the rest of the work. > Ideally this needs to be reworked into a logical series of patches with > knowledge of what's coming next.

Would you mind sharing what you do in UM to trigger this behaviour and also maybe the debug traces you've written into the driver to confirm this? > Steve > > > Documentation/gpu/drm-usage-stats.rst | 4 + > > drivers/gpu/drm/drm_file.c | 9 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/msm/msm_drv.c | 2 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panfrost/panfrost_drv.c | 2 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_devfreq.c | 10 + > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_device.c | 2 + > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_device.h | 21 ++ > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_drv.c | 83 +++++- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_fw.c | 16 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_fw.h | 5 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_gem.c | 67 ++++- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_gem.h | 16 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_heap.c | 23 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_heap.h | 6 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_mmu.c | 8 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_mmu.h | 3 +- > > drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_sched.c | 304 +++++++++++++++++++--- > > include/drm/drm_file.h | 7 +- > > 18 files changed, 522 insertions(+), 66 deletions(-) > > > > > > base-commit: 310ec03841a36e3f45fb528f0dfdfe5b9e84b037 Adrian Larumbe
