More AMDGPU Driver Code For Linux 6.10 Brings MES Updates, FreeSync Fixes

On top of prior DRM-Next pull requests for the AMD kernel graphics driver working on next-gen GPU support along with fixes and other low-level improvements, on Friday another batch of new feature code was submitted to DRM-Next ahead of the Linux 6.10 merge window opening up in mid-May.

Given we're getting late in the Linux 6.9 cycle, most of this new feature code for Linux 6.10 is rather bug fixes. There are some fixes for some of the newer hardware IP blocks, a notice is now printed for GPUs where OverDrive overclocking is not supported to make that more clear, VPE video fixes, FreeSync fixes, GPU reset fixes, a fix for vRAM memory accounting, and more.

Also notable with this pull are several updates around the Micro-Engine Scheduler (MES) support. There are MES fixes plus initial support for being able to map kernel queues via MES. AMD's MES has been in the news recently with MES documentation followed by code expected to happen starting around late May following recent frustrations around the MES firmware being raised by Tiny Corp.

This latest pull also adds SQ watchpoint support for GFX10 with the AMDKFD compute driver as well as that "Kernel Fusion Driver" seeing an mGPU fix, vRAM accounting for SVM migrations, and more.
