[Why] svm ranges can have mixed pages from device or system memory. A good example is, after a prange has been allocated in VRAM and a copy-on-write is triggered by a fork. This invalidates some pages inside the prange. Endding up in mixed pages. [How] By classifying each page inside a prange, based on its type. Device or system memory, during dma mapping call. If page corresponds to VRAM domain, a flag is set to its dma_addr entry for each GPU. Then, at the GPU page table mapping. All group of contiguous pages within the same type are mapped with their proper pte flags. v2: Instead of using ttm_res to calculate vram pfns in the svm_range. It is now done by setting the vram real physical address into drm_addr array. This makes more flexible VRAM management, plus removes the need to have a BO reference in the svm_range. v3: Remove mapping member from svm_range Signed-off-by: Alex Sierra <alex.sierra@amd.com> Reviewed-by: Felix Kuehling <Felix.Kuehling@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com> |

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.
