Yeah, exactly that won't work here. Most of the locations are not CPU accessible.

You could use AMDGPU_GEM_DOMAIN_GTT, that should most likely work in all cases but isn't necessarily the most optimal solution.

No problem about that, but why not a bit more flexibility? When udl copies from the buffer, it is likely pinned to VRAM.

A bit mask of _CPU, _GTT, and _VRAM should work fine. The other domains are probably irrelevant for our use case.

Best regards
