> [Prike] It's fine to protect this dummy info by checking the parameter amdgpu_exp_hw_support, but it may not friendly to end user by adding the parameter and some guys will still report KFD not enabled for this parameter setting problem. The original idea is the end user will not aware the dummy cache info and only alert the warning message to developer.

I thought the intention was to simplify bring-up but make sure that valid cache info is available by the time a chip goes into production.
Therefore, normal end users should never need to set the amdgpu_exp_hw_support option. I think you're saying that we would go to production with dummy info. That seems like a bad idea to me.

[Prike]  Sorry for the confusion. In fact, this dummy cache info only used before production and meanwhile needn't require any parameter setting for CQE do KFD test. Anyway if you still have concern on this solution I will add the condition of checking amdgpu_exp_hw_support.
