Pinning of VRAM is for peer devices that don't support dynamic attachment and move notifiers. But it requires that all such peer devices are able to access VRAM via PCIe P2P. Any device without P2P access requires migration to GTT, which fails if the memory is already pinned for another peer device. Sharing between GPUs should not require pinning in VRAM. However, if DMABUF_MOVE_NOTIFY is disabled in the kernel build, even DMABufs shared between GPUs must be pinned, which can lead to failures and functional regressions on systems where some peer GPUs are not P2P accessible. Disable VRAM pinning if move notifiers are disabled in the kernel build to fix regressions when sharing BOs between GPUs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
