2019-02-20drm/nouveau/svm: new ioctl to migrate process memory to GPU memoryJérôme Glisse1-0/+96
This add an ioctl to migrate a range of process address space to the device memory. On platform without cache coherent bus (x86, ARM, ...) this means that CPU can not access that range directly, instead CPU will fault which will migrate the memory back to system memory. This is behind a staging flag so that we can evolve the API. Signed-off-by: Jérôme Glisse <jglisse@redhat.com>
2019-02-20drm/nouveau/dmem: device memory helpers for SVMJérôme Glisse1-0/+2
Device memory can be use in SVM, in which case we do not have any of the existing buffer object. This commit add infrastructure to allow use of device memory without nouveau_bo. Again this is a temporary solution until a rework of GPU memory management. Signed-off-by: Jérôme Glisse <jglisse@redhat.com>
2019-02-20drm/nouveau/svm: initial support for shared virtual memoryBen Skeggs1-0/+737
This uses HMM to mirror a process' CPU page tables into a channel's page tables, and keep them synchronised so that both the CPU and GPU are able to access the same memory at the same virtual address. While this code also supports Volta/Turing, it's only enabled for Pascal GPUs currently due to channel recovery being unreliable right now on the later GPUs.
