Add a new KFD ioctl to return the largest possible memory size that can be allocated as a buffer object using kfd_ioctl_alloc_memory_of_gpu. It attempts to use exactly the same accept/reject criteria as that function so that allocating a new buffer object of the size returned by this new ioctl is guaranteed to succeed, barring races with other allocating tasks. This IOCTL will be used by libhsakmt: https://www.mail-archive.com/amd-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org/msg75743.html Signed-off-by: Daniel Phillips <Daniel.Phillips@amd.com> Signed-off-by: David Yat Sin <David.YatSin@amd.com> Reviewed-by: Felix Kuehling <Felix.Kuehling@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com>
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 Restructured Text 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.
