Currently drivers get called to move a buffer, but if they have to move it temporarily through another space (SYSTEM->VRAM via TT) then they can end up with a lot of ttm->driver->ttm call stacks, if the temprorary space moves requires eviction. Instead of letting the driver do all the placement/space for the temporary, allow it to report back (-EMULTIHOP) and a placement (hop) to the move code, which will then do the temporary move, and the correct placement move afterwards. This removes a lot of code from drivers, at the expense of adding some midlayering. I've some further ideas on how to turn it inside out, but I think this is a good solution to the call stack problems. v2: separate out the driver patches, add WARN for getting MULTHOP in paths we shouldn't (Daniel) v3: use memset (Christian) Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Reviewed-by: hristian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20201109005432.861936-2-airlied@gmail.com |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
