For now, disable THP, which is our only practical source of 2M pages until we have a W/A for the issue. v2: - Be explicit that we talk about GPU bandwidths (Eero) - s/deny/never/ because that's why (Chris) Reported-by: Valtteri Rantala Fixes: b901bb89324a ("drm/i915/gemfs: enable THP") Signed-off-by: Joonas Lahtinen Cc: Matthew Auld Cc: Chris Wilson Cc: Jani Nikula Cc: Rodrigo Vivi Cc: Valtteri Rantala Cc: Eero Tamminen Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson Reviewed-by: Matthew Auld Tested-by: Valtteri Rantala Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20171127091233.7001-1-joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com (cherry picked from commit 9987da4b5dcfc8b94b702d4bb94b30955eb73c75) Signed-off-by: Joonas Lahtinen --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gemfs.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gemfs.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gemfs.c index e2993857df37..888b7d3f04c3 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gemfs.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gemfs.c @@ -52,7 +52,8 @@ int i915_gemfs_init(struct drm_i915_private *i915) if (has_transparent_hugepage()) { struct super_block *sb = gemfs->mnt_sb; - char options[] = "huge=within_size"; + /* FIXME: Disabled until we get W/A for read BW issue. */ + char options[] = "huge=never"; int flags = 0; int err; -- GitLab
