From f15345a377c6ea9c7cc74f079616af8856aff37f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Deucher Date: Thu, 19 May 2022 10:21:08 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: Adjust logic around GTT size (v3) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Certain GL unit tests for large textures can cause problems with the OOM killer since there is no way to link this memory to a process. This was originally mitigated (but not necessarily eliminated) by limiting the GTT size. The problem is this limit is often too low for many modern games so just make the limit 1/2 of system memory. The OOM accounting needs to be addressed, but we shouldn't prevent common 3D applications from being usable just to potentially mitigate that corner case. Set default GTT size to max(3G, 1/2 of system ram) by default. v2: drop previous logic and default to 3/4 of ram v3: default to half of ram to align with ttm v4: fix spelling in comment (Kent) Bug: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1942 Reviewed-by: Marek Olšák Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher --- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c | 20 ++++++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c index be6f76a30ac6..3b4c19412625 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c @@ -1798,18 +1798,26 @@ int amdgpu_ttm_init(struct amdgpu_device *adev) DRM_INFO("amdgpu: %uM of VRAM memory ready\n", (unsigned) (adev->gmc.real_vram_size / (1024 * 1024))); - /* Compute GTT size, either bsaed on 3/4th the size of RAM size + /* Compute GTT size, either based on 1/2 the size of RAM size * or whatever the user passed on module init */ if (amdgpu_gtt_size == -1) { struct sysinfo si; si_meminfo(&si); - gtt_size = min(max((AMDGPU_DEFAULT_GTT_SIZE_MB << 20), - adev->gmc.mc_vram_size), - ((uint64_t)si.totalram * si.mem_unit * 3/4)); - } - else + /* Certain GL unit tests for large textures can cause problems + * with the OOM killer since there is no way to link this memory + * to a process.
