◆ amdsmi_get_gpu_memory_partition()

amdsmi_status_t amdsmi_get_gpu_memory_partition	(	amdsmi_processor_handle	processor_handle,
		char *	memory_partition,
		uint32_t	len
	)

Retrieves the current memory partition for a desired device.

Platform:

gpu_bm_linux

Given a processor handle processor_handle and a string memory_partition , and uint32 len , this function will attempt to obtain the device's memory partition string. Upon successful retreival, the obtained device's memory partition string shall be stored in the passed memory_partition char string variable.

Parameters

[in]	processor_handle	Device which to query
[in,out]	memory_partition	a pointer to a char string variable, which the device's memory partition will be written to.
[in]	len	the length of the caller provided buffer memory_partition , suggested length is 5 or greater.

Return values

AMDSMI_STATUS_SUCCESS	call was successful
AMDSMI_STATUS_INVAL	the provided arguments are not valid
AMDSMI_STATUS_UNEXPECTED_DATA	data provided to function is not valid
AMDSMI_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED	installed software or hardware does not support this function
AMDSMI_STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_SIZE	is returned if len bytes is not large enough to hold the entire memory partition value. In this case, only len bytes will be written.

◆ amdsmi_set_gpu_memory_partition()

amdsmi_status_t amdsmi_set_gpu_memory_partition	(	amdsmi_processor_handle	processor_handle,
		amdsmi_memory_partition_type_t	memory_partition
	)

Modifies a selected device's current memory partition setting.

Platform:

gpu_bm_linux

Given a processor handle processor_handle and a type of memory partition memory_partition, this function will attempt to update the selected device's memory partition setting.

Parameters

[in]	processor_handle	Device which to query
[in]	memory_partition	using enum amdsmi_memory_partition_type_t, define what the selected device's current mode setting should be updated to.

Return values

AMDSMI_STATUS_SUCCESS	call was successful
::AMDSMI_STATUS_PERMISSION	function requires root access
AMDSMI_STATUS_INVAL	the provided arguments are not valid
AMDSMI_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED	installed software or hardware does not support this function
AMDSMI_STATUS_AMDGPU_RESTART_ERR	could not successfully restart the amdgpu driver
