I have changed >to gem_mmap__wc in v3. Hi Ashutosh, All of the gem_mmap (_GTT, _WC, etc) functions map to a faulting routing that will pin all the pages. I think that we need to find out where the ENOMEM is really coming from. Is it possible that the ENOMEM is occurring on the second BO because it can't get enough pages to pin the buffer? I.e. is the shrinker supposed to come into play here and get enough pages from the first buffer, but fails? (or is that an ENOSPC error?)
