Hi Monk,
this patch doesn't prevents PD/PT eviction.
The intention of the code here was that per VM BOs can evict other per
VM BOs during allocation.
The problem my patch fixes is that this unfortunately also meant that
allocation PDs/PTs could evict other PDs/PTs from the same process.
Regards,
Christian.

Hi Christian
Theoretically the vm pt/pd should be allowed to be evicted like other BOs ..
If you encountered page fault and could be avoided by this patch, that means
there is bug in the VM/ttm system , and your patch simply
w/a the root cause.

Subject: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: fix potential VM faults
When we allocate new page tables under memory pressure we should not evict old
ones.
