See ttm_mem_evict_first() unlocks the BO after evicting it: <blockquote type="cite"> ttm_bo_del_from_lru(bo); spin_unlock(&glob->lru_lock); ret = ttm_bo_evict(bo, ctx); if (locked) { ttm_bo_unreserve(bo); <-------- here } else { spin_lock(&glob->lru_lock); ttm_bo_add_to_lru(bo); spin_unlock(&glob->lru_lock); } kref_put(&bo->list_kref, ttm_bo_release_list); </blockquote> The effect is that in your example process C can not only beat process B once, but many many times because we run into a ping/pong situation where B evicts resources while C moves them back in. For a while now I'm thinking about dropping those reservations only after the original allocation succeeded. The effect would be that process C can still beat process B initially, but sooner or process B would evict some resources from process C as well and then it can succeed with its allocation. The problem is for this approach to work we need to core change to the ww_mutexes to be able to handle this efficiently. Regards, Christian.

You prevent concurrent allocation from happening. What we could do is to pipeline reusing of deleted memory as well, this makes it less likely to cause the problem you are seeing because the evicting processes doesn't need to block for deleted BOs any more. But that other processes can grab memory during eviction is intentional. Otherwise greedy processes would completely dominate command submission. Regards, Christian.

I also reproduced the issue with unit test(bo_eviction_test). They always think our scheduler isn't working as expected. After my investigation, this issue should be detect of TTM design self, which breaks scheduling balance. Further, if we run containers for our gpu, container A could run high score, container B runs low score with same benchmark. So this is bug that we need fix.

Again NAK to the whole approach. At least with amdgpu the problem you described above never occurs because evictions are pipelined operations. We could only block for deleted regions to become free. But independent of that incoming memory requests while we make room for eviction are intended to be served first. Changing that is certainly a no-go cause that would favor memory hungry applications over small clients.
