SubjectRe: [PATCH v7 0/6] Proposal for a GPU cgroup controller
From

Hi,

Le mardi 10 mai 2022 à 23:56 +0000, T.J. Mercier a écrit :

I'm sorry, since I'm not in-depth technically involve. But from reading the
topic I don't understand the bound this creates between DMABuf Heaps and GPU. Is
this an attempt to really track the DMABuf allocated by userland, or just
something for GPU ? What about V4L2 devices ? Any way this can be clarified,
specially what would other subsystem needs to have cgroup DMABuf allocation
controller support ?

> History of the GPU cgroup controller
> ====================================
> The GPU/DRM cgroup controller came into being when a consensus[1]
