133
*
134
* Only valid when placing objects in I915_MEMORY_CLASS_DEVICE, and only
135
* strictly required on configurations where some subset of the device
136
* memory is directly visible/mappable through the CPU (which we also
137
* call small BAR), like on some DG2+ systems. Note that this is quite
138
* undesirable, but due to various factors like the client CPU, BIOS etc
139
* it's something we can expect to see in the wild. See
140
* &__drm_i915_memory_region_info.probed_cpu_visible_size for how to
141
* determine if this system applies.
142
*
143
* Note that one of the placements MUST be I915_MEMORY_CLASS_SYSTEM, to
144
* ensure the kernel can always spill the allocation to system memory,
145
* if the object can't be allocated in the mappable part of
146
* I915_MEMORY_CLASS_DEVICE.
147
*
148
* Also note that since the kernel only supports flat-CCS on objects
149
* that can *only* be placed in I915_MEMORY_CLASS_DEVICE, we therefore
150
* don't support I915_GEM_CREATE_EXT_FLAG_NEEDS_CPU_ACCESS together with
151
* flat-CCS.
152
*
153
* Without this hint, the kernel will assume that non-mappable
154
* I915_MEMORY_CLASS_DEVICE is preferred for this object. Note that the
155
* kernel can still migrate the object to the mappable part, as a last
156
* resort, if userspace ever CPU faults this object, but this might be
157
* expensive, and so ideally should be avoided.
158
*
159
* On older kernels which lack the relevant small-bar uAPI support (see
160
* also &__drm_i915_memory_region_info.probed_cpu_visible_size),
161
* usage of the flag will result in an error, but it should NEVER be
162
* possible to end up with a small BAR configuration, assuming we can
163
* also successfully load the i915 kernel module. In such cases the
164
* entire I915_MEMORY_CLASS_DEVICE region will be CPU accessible, and as
165
* such there are zero restrictions on where the object can be placed.
