Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/6] mm/mmu_notifier: Allow multiple struct mmu_interval_notifier passes
Date: Sat, 9 Aug 2025 15:51:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250809135137.259427-2-thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250809135137.259427-1-thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com>
GPU use-cases for mmu_interval_notifiers with hmm often involve
starting a gpu operation and then waiting for it to complete.
These operations are typically context preemption or TLB flushing.
With single-pass notifiers per GPU this doesn't scale in
multi-gpu scenarios. In those scenarios we'd want to first start
preemption- or TLB flushing on all GPUs and as a second pass wait
for them to complete on all gpus.
One can do this on per-driver basis multiplexing per-driver
notifiers but that would mean sharing the notifier "user" lock
across all GPUs and that doesn't scale well either, so adding support
for multi-pass in the core appears like the right choice.
Implement multi-pass capability in the mmu_interval_notifier. Use a
linked list for the additional passes to minimize the impact for
use-cases that don't need the multi-pass functionality.
