NAK to the whole approach. This belongs into the GEM or driver layer,
but not into TTM.

Sorry for responding late.

GEM layer seems not a proper place to handle this as:
1. it is not aware of the back storage (system mem or device mem) unless
we add this information up to GEM which I think is not appropriate
2. system memory allocated by GEM with drm_gem_get_pages() is already
charged to memcg, it's only the ttm system memory not charged to memcg

The key point is that we already discussed this on the mailing list and GEM was agreed on to be the right place for this.

That's the reason why the Intel developers already proposed a way to expose the buffer location in GEM.

Please sync up with Kenny who is leading the development efforts and with the Intel developers before warming up an old discussion again.

Adding that to TTM is an absolute no-go from my maintainers perspective.


Implement in driver like amdgpu is an option. But seems the problem is inside
TTM which does not charge pages allocated by itself to memcg, won't it be
better to solve it in TTM so that all drivers using it can benefit? Or you just
think we should not rely on memcg for GPU system memory limitation?

The memory is always charged to the control group of task which
create this buffer object and when it's created. For example,
when a buffer is created by process A and exported to process B,
then process B populate this buffer, the memory is still charged
to process A's memcg; if a buffer is created by process A when in
memcg B, then A is moved to memcg C and populate this buffer, it
will charge memcg B.
This is actually the most common use case for graphics application where
the X server allocates most of the backing store.

So we need a better handling than just accounting the memory to whoever
allocated it first.

You mean the application based on DRI2 and X11 protocol draw? I think this
is still reasonable to charge xserver for the memory, because xserver allocate
the buffer and share to application which is its design and implementation
nature. With DRI3, the buffer is allocated by application, also
suitable for this
approach.

That is a way to simplistic.

Again we already discussed this and the agreed compromise is to charge the application which is using the memory and not who has allocated it.

So you need to add the charge on importing a buffer and not just when it is created.

Christian.
