Linux 6.17 To Fix AMDGPU Hibernation So It Doesn't Take ~50 Minutes On Large GPU Servers
While late in the Linux 6.16 cycle and hitting the cut-off for when the period to queue new DRM driver feature material for Linux 6.17 ends, an additional drm-misc-next pull request was sent out today with some last minute kernel graphics driver changes for this next kernel cycle
While late in the Linux 6.16 cycle and hitting the cut-off for when the period to queue new DRM driver feature material for Linux 6.17 ends, an additional drm-misc-next pull request was sent out today with some last minute kernel graphics driver changes for this next kernel cycle. In some cases it's causing issues for not enough free system memory when creating the hibernation image and when it does succeed it's taking a long time due to all the archiving and then restoring of the buffer objects. Nearly one hour can be saved with these patches on a maxed out AMD Instinct accelerator server.
