Yeah sounds good to me.

Could we make a global ttm function returning how much system memory can be 
used at the same time?

This way we could make those values depend on each other, e.g. when somebody 
modifies the TTM value we automatically change the GART size as well.

Regards,
Christian.

thanks Felix,

   I see that logci in TTM as well, so choose 1/2 of system memory as up limit 
seems good enough here? if no object I will fix the overflow issue and send the 
review again.

TTM limits system memory allocations to 1/2 system memory for regular 
processes, or 3/4 for privileged processes.


For compute we opted to make the GART bigger than system memory to allow for 
fragmentation. However, we argued that you don't really need GART for most 
buffers anyways, since they are never accessed in VMID 0. They need to be 
mapped in some VM page table, but never in the GART table. So I think the 
long-term goal should be to remove the need to allocate GART addresses for 
system memory BOs. Then you could get away with a quite small GART size.


Regards,

  Felix

Well that is at least something that makes sense.

Previous discussions where always settled around making GART bigger than VRAM 
and not the other way around.

Anyway I think a prerequisite to this is actually allowing half of system 
memory to be allocated for GART and I'm not sure if that is currently the case. 
TTM has a limitation for that as well, but I off hand don't remember how high 
much it was.

I think we should use the same value which TTM uses for the upper limit here.

Regards,
Christian.

-there is a thread for this topic yesterday, some people are not in amd-gfx 
mail list, we'd better discuss in the internal thread.

No, exactly for this reason we have the public mailing list. I for example 
wasn't part of the internal thread either.

-- can you be more specific, how could the overflow happen?

Both values are 32bit on a 32bit system, so as soon as you have more than 4GB 
installed this will overflow.

You need to cast the long to a 64bit value to avoid that.



Additional if I remember correctly we didn't ended the discussion on
what to do here with a conclusion.

This doesn't work on 32bit systems since totalram is a long (IIRC) and
so this will certainly overflow.
