Hi,

Ping? This is actually a regression.
If there is no one available to work this, maybe I can have a look in
my spare time, in accordance with your suggestion.

Regards,
Luís

Sorry for the inconvenience.

The proposed patch fixes the issue and allows amdgpu to work again on
armhf with a AMD RX 550 card, however it may not be the best solution
for the issue, as detailed below.

include/log2.h defined macros rounddown_pow_of_two(...) and
roundup_pow_of_two(...) do not handle 64-bit values on 32-bit
architectures (tested on armv9 armhf machine) causing
drm_buddy_init(...) to fail on BUG_ON with an underflow on the order
value, thus impeding amdgpu to load properly (no GUI).

One option is to modify rounddown_pow_of_two(...) to detect if the
variable takes 32 bits or less and call __rounddown_pow_of_two_u32(u32
n) or if the variable takes more space than 32 bits, then call
__rounddown_pow_of_two_u64(u64 n). This would imply renaming
__rounddown_pow_of_two(unsigne
d long n) to
__rounddown_pow_of_two_u32(u32 n) and add a new function
__rounddown_pow_of_two_u64(u64 n). This would be the most transparent
solution, however there a few complications, and they are:
- that the mm subsystem will fail to link on armhf with an undefined
reference on __aeabi_uldivmod
- there a few drivers that directly call __rounddown_pow_of_two(...)
- that other drivers and subsystems generate warnings

So this alternate solution was devised which avoids touching existing
code paths, and just updates drm_buddy which seems to be the only
driver that is failing, however I am not sure if this is the proper
way to go. So I would like to get a second opinion on this, by those
who know.

order = ilog2(root_size) - ilog2(chunk_size);
I think this can be handled much easier if keep around the root_order
instead of the root_size in the first place.

Cause ilog2() does the right thing even for non power of two values and
so we just need the order for the offset subtraction below.
Could you try with ilog2() and see if you are getting the right value for size as suggested
by Christian.

Thanks,
Arun

Arun can you take a closer look at this?

Christian.
