No, that are alternative approaches.<br>
<br>
Updating the VMID asynchronously sounds a bit cleaner to me, but
feel free to pick whatever is easier for you to implement.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">See the SPM buffer address is set using

<br>
When we now synchronously update the SPM VMID we risk that
we switch from one process to another while the new process
is not ready yet with its setup.<br>
<br>
That could have quite a bunch of unforeseen consequences,
including accidentally writing SPM data into the new process
address space at whatever buffer address was used before.<br>
<br>
This is something we at least should try to avoid.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"><br>
You pass the ring from amdgpu_vm_flush() to the
*_update_spm_vmid() functions.<br>
<br>
And then instead of using WREG32() you call
amdgpu_ring_emit_wreg() to make the write
asynchronously on the ring buffer using a CP command.<br>
<br>
This way we avoid a bunch of trouble when one process
drops the VMID reservation and another one grabs it.<br>

It would be better if we could do that
asynchronously with a register <br>
write on the ring.<br>
<br>
The alternative is that we block for the VM to be
idle in <br>
amdgpu_vm_ioctl() before unreserving the VMID.<br>
<br>
In other words lock the reservation object of the
root PD and call <br>
amdgpu_vm_wait_idle() before calling
amdgpu_vmid_free_reserved().<br>
<br>

Christian.<br>
