No. The original idea is that the GEM proxy could support madvise as it only invokes unpin/pin. And supporting madivse might benefit userspace. So, do you think we'd better ban GEM proxy in madvise? > not supported on any relevant platforms! > gem_wait: works on local bo (as expected) > > execbuf: works (or should at least work fine on a proxy object as either a batch > or one of the auxiliaries) > > Hmm, use as a batch + cmdparser is broken; should result in ENODEV to > userspace. An admittedly odd result, but not an oops. GEM proxy isn't designed to be used as a batch buffer, only as an auxiliary. So I think here you mean we need to ban GEM proxy in i915_gem_execbuffer/i915_gem_execbuffer2, right? > > display: pin-to-display and fencing will work, I think, and flush_for_display is > irrelevant as no direct cpu access. > > dmabuf: works partially, but what doesn't work is optional.

Hmm, no, we need to make the > GEM_BUG_ON(!struct_page(obj)) in > i915_gem_object_pin_map() a real return. So, as this can benefit all kinds of gem object w/o backing storage, can we split the following part into another patch? Thanks.
