[PATCH] amdgpu: implement context priority for amdgpu_cs_ctx_create2 v2

Andres Rodriguez andresx7 at gmail.com
Wed Jan 4 01:56:28 UTC 2017


Add a new context creation function that allows specifying the context
priority.

A high priority context has the potential of starving lower priority
contexts. The current kernel driver implementation only allows only the
root user to allocate high priority contexts.
