Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y] drm/amdgpu: skip the VMID 0 flush for VRAM
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:19:19 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916201919.2504540-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026091637-whole-improve-e7e2@gregkh>

From: Arunpravin Paneer Selvam <Arunpravin.PaneerSelvam@amd.com>

[ Upstream commit 87ceb8cba73d0b3c4025ff42495bccd8164acaed ]

Clear-on-release only runs on VRAM, which amdgpu_ttm_map_buffer() reaches
via its direct MC address without programming a GART window, yet the wipe
still forces a VMID 0 flush. On GFX11 (e.g. Navi33) that spurious SDMA
flush can wedge the engine; only flush when a GART window is actually used.

v2: Let amdgpu_ttm_map_buffer() return whether the VMID 0 flush is needed,
    and drive the clear and copy paths from that. (Christian)
v3: Make the vm_needs_flush output parameter mandatory instead of
    allowing NULL. (Christian)

Fixes: a68c7eaa7a8f ("drm/amdgpu: Enable clear page functionality")
