[PATCH v3 2/5] drm/nouveau/uvmm: Allow larger pages
Posted by Mohamed Ahmed 3 months, 1 week ago
From: Mary Guillemard <mary@mary.zone>

Now that everything in UVMM knows about the variable page shift, we can
select larger values.

The proposed approach relies on nouveau_bo::page unless if it would cause
alignment issues (in which case we fall back to searching for an
appropriate shift)

There's already a v4 on the list that fixes the parenthesis.

Anyway, if I'm keeping track of things correctly this series is now
fully reviewed (v4 on the kernel side by Lyude and James, and on the
userspace side by me) which means I think we're ready to start
landing.

Do I have to make a v5 with Lyude's and James' review tags or does
this get added when it lands?

As discussed on irc/discord, this is buggy because it needs more
parenthesis 🤦‍♀️
