With softpin we allow the userspace to take control over the GPU virtual address space. The new capability is relected by a bump of the minor DRM version. There are a few restrictions for userspace to take into account: 1. The kernel reserves a bit of the address space to implement zero page faulting and mapping of the kernel internal ring buffer. Userspace can query the kernel for the first usable GPU VM address via ETNAVIV_PARAM_SOFTPIN_START_ADDR. 2. We only allow softpin on GPUs, which implement proper process separation via PPAS. If softpin is not available the softpin start address will be set to ~0. 3. Softpin is all or nothing. A submit using softpin must not use any address fixups via relocs.
