This update adds explanations to key functions that manage how the Kernel Fusion Driver (KFD) and Kernel Graphics Driver (KGD) share the GPU. amdgpu_gfx_enforce_isolation_wait_for_kfd: Controls the waiting period for KFD to ensure it takes turns with KGD in using the GPU. It uses a mutex to safely manage shared data, like timing and state, and tracks when KFD starts and stops waiting. amdgpu_gfx_enforce_isolation_ring_begin_use: Ensures KFD has enough time to run before new tasks are submitted to the GPU ring. It uses a mutex to synchronize access and may adjust the KFD scheduler. amdgpu_gfx_enforce_isolation_ring_end_use: Handles cleanup and state updates when finishing the use of a GPU ring. It may also adjust the KFD scheduler, using a mutex to manage shared data access.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
