The GDS and GWS blocks default to allowing all VMIDs to access all entries. Graphics VMIDs can handle setting these limits when the driver launches work. However, compute workloads under HWS control don't go through the kernel driver. Instead, HWS firmware should set these limits when a process is put into a VMID slot. Disable access to these devices by default by turning off all mask bits (for OA) and setting BASE=SIZE=0 (for GDS and GWS) for all compute VMIDs. If a process wants to use these resources, they can request this from the HWS firmware (when such capabilities are enabled). HWS will then handle setting the base and limit for the process when it is assigned to a VMID. This will also prevent user kernels from getting 'stuck' in GWS by accident if they write GWS-using code but HWS firmware is not set up to handle GWS reset. Until HWS is enabled to handle GWS properly, all GWS accesses will MEM_VIOL fault the kernel. v2: Move initialization outside of SRBM mutex Signed-off-by: Joseph Greathouse <Joseph.Greathouse@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.
