Add A Comment This week a final batch of DRM-Misc-Next feature material was submitted for DRM-Next to queue ahead of the Linux 7.3 merge window opening later in the month. Most notable is the TTM memory management code is now being more agressive when allocating below protection limits. This is an improvement coming thanks to Valve's open-source Linux graphics team. Since last year Natalie Vock of Valve's Linux graphics team has been exploring cases where device memory protection fails to prevent allocations from ending up in the GTT whe nvRAM is scarce and applications/games begin competing for video memory space.
