The addresses to which the object is being pinned is generated as part
of the test. The code is just assuming that the address needs to be 4K
aligned instead of figuring out what the alignment requirement for the
device is.

Shouldn't the test be updated to generate virtual addresses per the
alignment requirements of the test device instead of just assuming 4K
increments are good?

You're perfectly right, and that's what I've been trying to achieve in my
series https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/igt-dev/2019-October/017081.html.

Thanks for providing the context for the changes.

As suggested by Chris (https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/igt-dev/2019-October/016936.html),
I've been trying to add a library function that detects the alignment
requirement of a device.  We haven't agreed yet on necessity of my approach to
distinguish failures caused by incorrect offset alignment from those which are
simply coming from addresses being occupied by other users, and how to do

For a context that has just been created, I would assume that the PPGTTs would be
empty as no object should be mapped by default in it. With this
assumption, is it safe to assume that unaligned addresses would be the
only ones that return an EINVAL error?

I'll take a look at the latest version of the patch series for this.

Thanks,
Vanshi

that distinction.  In my current approach, I'm retrying at different offsets
to conclude possible failure reasons, but maybe error codes can be used for
that.

Back to this patch, skipping over invalid offsets, calculated from incorrectly
assumed or detected alignment requirements still seems wrong to me, anyway.
That's the reason for this patch.

Thanks,
Janusz
