From: Jérôme Glisse <jglisse@xxxxxxxxxx> (mm is cced just to allow exposure of device driver work without ccing a long list of peoples. I do not think there is anything usefull to discuss from mm point of view but i might be wrong, so just for the curious :)). git://people.freedesktop.org/~glisse/linux branch: nouveau-hmm-v00 https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~glisse/linux/log/?h=nouveau-hmm-v00 This patchset adds SVM (Share Virtual Memory) using HMM (Heterogeneous Memory Management) to the nouveau driver. SVM means that GPU threads spawn by GPU driver for a specific user process can access any valid CPU address in that process. A valid pointer is a pointer inside an area coming from mmap of private, share or regular file. Pointer to a mmap of a device file or special file are not supported. This is an RFC for few reasons technical reasons listed below and also because we are still working on a proper open source userspace (namely a OpenCL 2.0 for nouveau inside mesa). Open source userspace being a requirement for the DRM subsystem. I pushed in [1] a simple standalone program that can be use to test SVM through HMM with nouveau. I expect we will have a somewhat working userspace in the coming weeks, work being well underway and some patches have already been posted on mesa mailing list. They are two aspect that need to sorted before this can be considered ready. First we want to decide how to update GPU page table from HMM. In this patchset i added new methods to vmm to allow GPU page table to be updated without nvkm_memory or nvkm_vma object (see patch 7 and 8 special mapping method for HMM). It just take an array of pages and flags. It allow for both system and device private memory to be interleaved. The second aspect is how to create a HMM enabled channel. Channel is a term use for NVidia GPU command queue, each process using nouveau have at least one channel, it can have multiple channels. They are not created by process directly but rather by device driver backend of common library like OpenGL, OpenCL or Vulkan. They are work underway to revamp nouveau channel creation with a new userspace API. So we might want to delay upstreaming until this lands. We can stil discuss one aspect specific to HMM here namely the issue around GEM objects used for some specific part of the GPU. Some engine inside the GPU (engine are a GPU block like the display block which is responsible of scaning memory to send out a picture through some connector for instance HDMI or DisplayPort) can only access memory with virtual address below (1 << 40). To accomodate those we need to create a "hole" inside the process address space. This patchset have a hack for that (patch 13 HACK FOR HMM AREA), it reserves a range of device file offset so that process can mmap this range with PROT_NONE to create a hole (process must make sure the hole is below 1 << 40). I feel un-easy of doing it this way but maybe it is ok with other folks. Note that this patchset do not show usage of device private memory as it depends on other architectural changes to nouveau. However it is very easy to add it with some gross hack so if people would like to see it i can also post an RFC for that. As a preview it only adds two new ioctl which allow userspace to ask for migration of a range of virtual address, expectation is that the userspace library will know better where to place thing and kernel will try to sastify this (with no guaranty, it is a best effort). As usual comments and questions are welcome.
