If N is infinite (or not known) then how do you know that 96 MiB > will be enough? s5p_mfc pre-allocating the default 8MiB at the moment with CMA size of 64 Mbytes H.264 1080p video use0case fails. Works with CMA size = 96 Mbytes. N in this log meant to cover the deualt case of 8 MiB or any user override with s5p_mfc.mem=UserSpecifiedM. If this leads to confusion, we can amend it to say "pre-allocate CMA memory" Would you like me to amend the changelog with the above change and resend the patch? thanks, -- Shuah > > Best regards, > Krzysztof > > >> to decode a H.264 1080p video, then there won't be enough CMA memory left >> for other drivers, such as the exynos-drm driver that may need to allocate >> GEM buffers for the display manager. >> >> Increasing CMA size to 96 Mbytes in exynos_defconfig addresses use-cases >> such as these. >> >> Suggested-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx> >> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <shuahkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >> Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >> --- >> >> Changes since v1: >> Fix short and long commit log. >> >> Reason for this patch: >> With the proposed s5p_mfc patch series that pre-allocate buffers, when >> display manager starts, it fails to get GEM buffers.
