It's a bug in the driver in that it tries to use a GTT mapping on an 8k x 8k object which is the size of the mappable aperture and has no fallback to handle the failure to fault in the page for writing. Either mesa or the kernel needs to provide some form of trampolining for such large bo, or for the kernel to provide a mechanism to only map a rectangular part of the buffer. Alternatively, you can see if you can instruct clutter not to generate such large texture atlases, which is still a heuristic to second guess the driver... -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre
