Actually that is not correct. According to the documentation the

Mmm, I checked the doc earlier, didn't find the PRT flag for PDE.
The PDE indeed doesn't have the PRT flag, but it also doesn't have
the fragment
and MTYPE fields and those still work normally when you enable huge
page handling.
The trick is that when you set the huge page flag then the PDE is
handled like a
PTE and so all the extra fields (PRT, fragment size, MTYPE etc...)
should now be
handled correctly.
Could be that there is a hardware bug related to PRT handling and the
huge page
flag, but at least in theory it should work fine.
The doc just skips these fields in PDE, if those fields really works
expectedly, even if it doesn't describe the details(but we could refer
to PTE fields), we may have to confirm that with HW guys.
I've just confirmed that huge pages and PRTs should work together. We
even have an unit test for that.
I mean we could ping Wade as well, but I'm pretty sure that he will tell
you just the same.
I think by disabling huge pages for PRTs we actually hide the real issue
somehow, probably some problem with updating PRTs after they are split up.
Can you check if the problem also vanishes when you disable the
following optimization in amdgpu_vm_update_ptes?
/* We don't need to update PTEs for huge pages */
if (entry->huge)
continue;
Just comment this out for a test.
In my view in current stage, PDE doesn't support PRT and it may not
make much sense to support PRT either.
The huge page always happens when reserving PRT range, but later UMD
is likely to bind a/some tiled bo(s) inside this range, that will
break the huge page mapping and split into several pieces mappings,
representing in PTE instead of huge page.
In this case, just skipping the huge page for PRT may be an acceptable
way.
Well disabling huge pages for PRTs can definitely cause a huge
performance problem because it increases the TLB misses for PRTs by a
factor of 512.
And since PRTs are usually used for large only sparse allocated textures
that is really really important here.
In CTS PRT test, the reserved PRT mapping introduces huge page
mapping, so
later tiled bo mapping cannot make sure the corresponding PTE is set
as PRT.
Then following access triggers VM fault.
Interesting, but that rather sounds like a bug in the handling
instead of a
hardware problem.
On the 2nd thinking, we may handle that for huge page.
e.g.when binding tiled bo in PRT range, we could split the huge page
into pieces PTE mappings.
However, it may just make the code more complex and get the same
results as current fix.
That should already be the case when everything works as expected.
Can you narrow down the CTS test further into a libdrm unit test? Or
in other
words what exactly does the CTS test do?
The issue could be reproduced by below command:
{{{
deqp-vk -n
dEQP-VK.sparse_resources.buffer.ssbo.sparse_residency.buffer_size_2_24
}}}
In KMD view, the main process(with amdgpu mainline driver) is like below:
1) reserve PRT range [0x300400000, 0x300400000 + 0x1000000)
2) bind tiled bos each other page
0x300400000 ~ 0x300401000,
0x300402000 ~ 0x300403000,
0x300404000 ~ 0x300405000,
...
3) access them all, VM fault at 0x300401000
That sounds like something I should be able to reproduce when your quick
test doesn't bring the desired result.

PRT mapping doesn't support huge page, since it's per PTE basis.
