Comes up every few years, gets somewhat tedious to discuss, let's write this down once and for all. What I'm not sure about is whether the text should be more explicit in flat out mandating the amdkfd eviction fences for long running compute workloads or workloads where userspace fencing is allowed. v2: Now with dot graph! v3: Typo (Dave Airlie) Reviewed-by: Thomas Hellstrom <thomas.hellstrom@intel.com> Acked-by: Jason Ekstrand <jason@jlekstrand.net> Acked-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Acked-by: Daniel Stone <daniels@collabora.com> Acked-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Maarten Lankhorst <maarten.lankhorst@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jesse Natalie <jenatali@microsoft.com> Cc: Steve Pronovost <spronovo@microsoft.com> Cc: Jason Ekstrand <jason@jlekstrand.net> Cc: Felix Kuehling <Felix.Kuehling@amd.com> Cc: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@intel.com> Cc: Thomas Hellstrom <thomas.hellstrom@intel.com> Cc: linux-media@vger.kernel.org Cc: linaro-mm-sig@lists.linaro.org Cc: linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org Cc: amd-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org Cc: intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Maarten Lankhorst <maarten.lankhorst@linux.intel.com> Cc: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20200709123339.547390-1-daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
