[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v6 1/4] drm/i915: Reserve some kernel space per vm

Andrzej Hajda andrzej.hajda at intel.com
Thu Oct 26 18:36:26 UTC 2023


Reserve one page in each vm for kernel space to use for things
such as workarounds.

v2: use real memory, do not decrease vm.total
v4: reserve only one page and explain flag
v5: remove allocated object on ppgtt cleanup
v6: decrease vm->total by reservation size
