John Brooks 00f06b246a drm/amdgpu: Throttle visible VRAM moves separately
The BO move throttling code is designed to allow VRAM to fill quickly if it
is relatively empty. However, this does not take into account situations
where the visible VRAM is smaller than total VRAM, and total VRAM may not
be close to full but the visible VRAM segment is under pressure. In such
situations, visible VRAM would experience unrestricted swapping and
performance would drop.

Add a separate counter specifically for moves involving visible VRAM, and
check it before moving BOs there.

v2: Only perform calculations for separate counter if visible VRAM is
    smaller than total VRAM. (Michel Dänzer)
v3: [Michel Dänzer]
* Use BO's location rather than the AMDGPU_GEM_CREATE_CPU_ACCESS_REQUIRED
  flag to determine whether to account a move for visible VRAM in most
  cases.
* Use a single

	if (adev->mc.visible_vram_size < adev->mc.real_vram_size) {

  block in amdgpu_cs_get_threshold_for_moves.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
