Re: 回复: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: Increase tlb flush timeout for sriov

Hi Horace,

that is correct, but also completely irrelevant.

What we do here is to wait for the TLB flush to avoid starting 
operations with invalid cache data.

But a parallel FLR clears the cache anyway and also prevents any new 
operation from starting, so it is perfectly valid to timeout and just 
continue with an error message.


On the other hand waiting for 6 seconds in a busy loop will most likely 
trigger the watchdog timer and potentially kill our process.

That is a rather clear no-go, we simply can't increase timeouts infinitely.

Regards,
Christian.
