This part should be separate and done only as one rolls a release.
Currently we have more than a dozen of people who can do that, with 3+
from the AMD team.
I'll take this out of the patch.

Please sync this file as described in the README, in the same directory.
Thanks for pointing that out, I totally missed the README

+/* Context priority level */

You really want NORMAL to be 0 here, to preserve the behaviour. In
other words, [sane] old userspace with new kernel will set HIGH prio,
where NORMAL is used with older kernels.
Will fix.

+
  struct drm_amdgpu_ctx_in {
         /** AMDGPU_CTX_OP_* */
         uint32_t        op;
         /** For future use, no flags defined so far */
         uint32_t        flags;
         uint32_t        ctx_id;
-       uint32_t        _pad;
+       uint32_t        priority;
This part is a bit of meh:

Namely things can go crazy in either one of these scenarios:
  - old kernel [validates _pad to be zero/other], new userspace feeds
"invalid" value.
  - new kernel. old [nasty] userspace which leaves the value uninitialised.

Re-using _pad is ok, just make sure things don't explode all over the place.

Emil
