If the IH ring buffer overflows, it's possible that fence signal events were lost. Check each ring for progress to prevent job timeouts/GPU hangs due to the fences staying unsignaled despite the work being done.
That's completely unnecessary and in some cases even harmful.
How is it harmful? The only effect it can have is prevent unnecessary GPU hangs, no? It's not like it hides any legitimate errors that you'd otherwise see.
We have no guarantee that all ring buffers are actually fully initialized to allow fence processing.
Apart from that fence processing is the least of your problems when an IV overflow occurs. Other interrupt source which are not repeated are usually for more worse.
We already have a timeout handler for that and overflows point to severe system problem so they should never occur in a production system.
IH ring buffer overflows are pretty reliably reproducible if you trigger a lot of page faults, at least on Deck. Why shouldn't enough page faults in quick succession be able to overflow the IH ring buffer?
At least not on recent hw generations. Since gfx9 we have a rate limit on the number of page faults generated.
What could maybe do as well is to change the default of vm_fault_stop, but for your case that would be even worse in production.
The fence fallback timer as it is now is useless for this because it only gets triggered once after 0.5s. I guess an alternative approach would be to make a timer trigger for each work item in flight every 0.5s, but why should that be better than just handling overflow errors as they occur?
That is intentional. As I said an IH overflow just points out that there is something massively wrong in the HW programming.
After gfx9 the IH should never produce overflow any more, otherwise either the ratelimit doesn't work or isn't enabled for some reason or the IH ring buffer is just to small.
