Hi Christian,

I don't think there is any constraint implemented to ensure `num_entries %
AMDGPU_GPU_PAGES_IN_CPU_PAGE == 0`.  For example, in `amdgpu_vm_bo_map()`:

         /* validate the parameters */
         if (saddr & AMDGPU_GPU_PAGE_MASK || offset & AMDGPU_GPU_PAGE_MASK
             size == 0 || size & AMDGPU_GPU_PAGE_MASK)
                 return -EINVAL;

/* snip */

         saddr /= AMDGPU_GPU_PAGE_SIZE;
         eaddr /= AMDGPU_GPU_PAGE_SIZE;

/* snip */

         mapping->start = saddr;
         mapping->last = eaddr;


If we really want to ensure (mapping->last - mapping->start + 1) %
AMDGPU_GPU_PAGES_IN_CPU_PAGE == 0, then we should replace
"AMDGPU_GPU_PAGE_MASK"
in "validate the parameters" with "PAGE_MASK".
It should be "~PAGE_MASK", "PAGE_MASK" has an opposite convention of
"AMDGPU_GPU_PAGE_MASK" :(.

Yeah, good point.

I tried it and it broke userspace: Xorg startup fails with EINVAL with
this
change.
Well in theory it is possible that we always fill the GPUVM on a 4k
basis while the native page size of the CPU is larger. Let me double
check the code.
On my platform, there are two issues both causing the VM corruption. One is
fixed by agd5f/linux@fe001e7.
What is fe001e7? A commit id? If yes then that is to short and I can't
find it.
it's a gitlab shortcut for

Ah! Yes I would expect that this patch is fixing something in this use case.

Thanks,
Christian.



Dan
Another is in Mesa from userspace: it uses
`dev_info->gart_page_size` as the alignment, but the kernel AMDGPU driver
expects it to use `dev_info->virtual_address_alignment`.
Mhm, looking at the kernel code I would rather say Mesa is correct and
the kernel driver is broken.

The gart_page_size is limited by the CPU page size, but the
virtual_address_alignment isn't.

If we can make the change to fill the GPUVM on a 4k basis, we can fix this issue
and make virtual_address_alignment = 4K. Otherwise, we should fortify the
parameter validation, changing "AMDGPU_GPU_PAGE_MASK" to "~PAGE_MASK". Then the
userspace will just get an EINVAL, instead of a slient VM corruption. And
someone should tell Mesa developers to fix the code in this case.
I rather see this as a kernel bug. Can you test if this code fragment
fixes your issue:
