commit ee33b9b175fde7ff8bd3f144ffe651fe347da71b Author: Arunpravin Paneer Selvam <[email protected]> gpu/buddy: add range-restricted contiguous allocation fallback This patch extends __alloc_contig_try_harder() to support range-restricted contiguous allocations by confining candidate placements to [range_start, range_end), descending through lower free-tree orders, and sweeping min_block_size-aligned offsets across the window as a last resort. > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/buddy.c b/drivers/gpu/buddy.c > index 91935c71c5255..ffa63ecaf235c 100644 > --- a/drivers/gpu/buddy.c > +++ b/drivers/gpu/buddy.c > @@ -1682,43 +1682,32 @@ static int __gpu_buddy_alloc_range(struct gpu_buddy > *mm, > blocks, total_allocated_on_err); > } > [ ... ] > static int __alloc_contig_try_harder(struct gpu_buddy *mm, > + u64 range_start, u64 range_end, > u64 size, > u64 min_block_size, > unsigned long flags, > struct list_head *blocks) > { > - u64 rhs_offset, lhs_offset, filled; > + u64 rhs_offset, lhs_offset, filled, aligned; > struct gpu_buddy_block *block; > + unsigned int min_order, order; > struct rb_root *root; > struct rb_node *iter; > unsigned long pages; > - unsigned int order; > u64 modify_size; > int err; > > + min_order = ilog2(min_block_size) - ilog2(mm->chunk_size); > + > modify_size = rounddown_pow_of_two(size); > pages = modify_size >> ilog2(mm->chunk_size); > order = fls(pages) - 1; > - if (order == 0) > - return -ENOSPC; > > +retry_order: > root = &mm->free_tree[order]; > if (RB_EMPTY_ROOT(root)) > - return -ENOSPC; > + goto next_order; > > iter = rb_last(root); > while (iter) { > @@ -1726,25 +1715,42 @@ static int __alloc_contig_try_harder(struct gpu_buddy > *mm, > > rhs_offset = gpu_buddy_block_offset(block); > > + if (rhs_offset >= range_end) { > + iter = rb_prev(iter); > + continue; > + } > + if (rhs_offset < range_start) > + break; > + > /* Allocate blocks traversing RHS */ > err = __gpu_buddy_alloc_range(mm, rhs_offset, size, > flags, &filled, blocks); > if (err && err != -ENOSPC) > return err; > - if (!err && IS_ALIGNED(rhs_offset, min_block_size)) > + if (!err && rhs_offset + size > range_end) { > + gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, blocks); > + filled = range_end - rhs_offset; > + err = -ENOSPC; > + } [Severity: Medium] What happens if __gpu_buddy_alloc_range() returns -ENOSPC on a partial fill that still crosses range_end (so rhs_offset + filled > range_end)? Because the clamp only triggers when !err, a partial fill that extends past range_end before hitting an allocated block before rhs_offset + size leaves filled > range_end - rhs_offset. When the leftward shift is then computed below: lhs_offset = rhs_offset - (size - filled); ... aligned = round_down(lhs_offset, min_block_size); if (aligned >= range_start && aligned + size <= range_end) lhs_offset + size equals rhs_offset + filled, which remains greater than range_end. For example, with range_start = 4K, range_end = 20K, size = 12K, min_block_size = 4K, [0, 24K) free, and [24K, 32K) allocated, the order-1 anchor at rhs_offset = 16K fills 8K before hitting 24K and returns -ENOSPC with filled = 8K. That yields lhs_offset = 12K and aligned + size = 24K > 20K, causing the window check to reject the candidate instead of clamping filled to 4K and testing the valid placement at [8K, 20K). Should the clamp check rhs_offset + filled > range_end on -ENOSPC as well (with filled initialized to size when !err)? > + if (!err && IS_ALIGNED(rhs_offset, min_block_size) && > + rhs_offset >= range_start && rhs_offset + size <= range_end) > return 0; > + > if (!err) { > /* Allocate the unaligned RHS offset using round_down */ > gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, blocks); > - err = __alloc_contig_aligned_retry(mm, rhs_offset, > - size, > - min_block_size, > - flags, blocks); > - if (!err) > - return 0; > - if (err != -ENOSPC) { > - gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, blocks); > - return err; > + > + aligned = round_down(rhs_offset, min_block_size); > + if (aligned >= range_start && > + aligned + size <= range_end) { > + err = __gpu_buddy_alloc_range(mm, aligned, size, > + flags, NULL, > blocks); > + if (!err) > + return 0; > + if (err != -ENOSPC) { > + gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, > blocks); > + return err; > + } > } > goto next; > } > @@ -1756,21 +1762,44 @@ static int __alloc_contig_try_harder(struct gpu_buddy > *mm, > > /* Allocate the unaligned LHS offset using round_down */ > gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, blocks); > - err = __alloc_contig_aligned_retry(mm, lhs_offset, > - size, > - min_block_size, > - flags, blocks); > - if (!err) > - return 0; > - if (err != -ENOSPC) { > - gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, blocks); > - return err; > + > + aligned = round_down(lhs_offset, min_block_size); > + if (aligned >= range_start && aligned + size <= range_end) { > + err = __gpu_buddy_alloc_range(mm, aligned, size, > + flags, NULL, blocks); > + if (!err) > + return 0; > + if (err != -ENOSPC) { > + gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, blocks); > + return err; > + } > } > next: > gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, blocks); > iter = rb_prev(iter); > } > > +next_order: > + if (order > min_order) { > + order--; > + goto retry_order; > + } > + > + /* > + * Last resort: sweep every aligned offset in the window and let > + * __gpu_buddy_alloc_range() carve the span from a larger covering > block. > + */\n> + for (aligned = round_up(range_start, min_block_size); > + aligned + size <= range_end; > + aligned += min_block_size) { > + err = __gpu_buddy_alloc_range(mm, aligned, size, flags, NULL, > blocks); > + if (!err) > + return 0; > + gpu_buddy_free_list_internal(mm, blocks); > + if (err != -ENOSPC) > + return err; > + } [Severity: High] Won't this linear sweep cause severe latency regressions or soft lockups when a contiguous allocation fails with -ENOSPC on a large VRAM manager? In gpu_buddy_alloc_blocks(), all GPU_BUDDY_CONTIGUOUS_ALLOCATION requests enter __alloc_contig_try_harder() with [0, mm->size) for non-range callers or [start, end) for range callers, and original_min_size is frequently SZ_4K: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_vram_mgr.c:amdgpu_vram_mgr_new() -> gpu_buddy_alloc_blocks(..., min_block_size = 4K, GPU_BUDDY_CONTIGUOUS_ALLOCATION) -> __alloc_contig_try_harder(mm, 0, mm->size, ..., 4K, ...) Callers like amdgpu_vram_mgr_new(), xe_ttm_vram_mgr_new(), and i915_ttm_buddy_man_alloc() hold their manager lock and rely on a fast -ENOSPC return when contiguous space is unavailable so they can fall back to non-contiguous allocation or trigger eviction. When no contiguous span of the requested size exists, __alloc_contig_try_harder() now descends through every free_tree order down to min_order and then sweeps every min_block_size-aligned offset across [range_start, range_end) (which also changes the non-range path despite the commit message noting that non-range behaviour is unchanged). On a 16 GiB VRAM manager (or larger on modern GPUs) with min_block_size == 4K, a single -ENOSPC return will run over 4 million iterations of __gpu_buddy_alloc_range() while holding mgr->lock (and 65,536 iterations even for a 256 MiB range). When a free run smaller than size precedes an allocated block, stepping by min_block_size repeatedly splits higher-order free blocks and frees/coalesces them back on each step. When aligned lands on an already-allocated block, __alloc_range() aborts with an empty list, so gpu_buddy_free_list_internal() performs zero iterations and never calls cond_resched(). If the goal of the last-resort loop is to carve a span out of a larger coalesced free block when GPU_BUDDY_RANGE_ALLOCATION is set, why not walk the higher-order free trees (from order + 1 up to mm->max_order) and check blocks that overlap [range_start, range_end) instead of scanning every aligned address? > + > return -ENOSPC; > } [ ... ] ওয়াও!
