# tuned-amdgpu
|
|
|
|
Hacky solution to integrate AMDGPU power profile control in `tuned` with Ansible
|
|
|
|
Takes a list of existing `tuned` profiles and creates new ones based on them. These new profiles include AMDGPU power/clock parameters
|
|
|
|
_Warning_: Only tested with RX6000 series GPUs, Navi or older may not work properly.
|
|
|
|
## Profiles
|
|
|
|
An example of the output/provided profiles follow
|
|
|
|
| Output profile | Description |
|
|
|:---|---|
|
|
| `balanced-amdgpu-default` | Includes the (assumed) existing `balanced` tuned profile.<br/><br/>Only adjusts the GPU power limit (typically lower). Clocks/voltage curve remain the default. |
|
|
| `desktop-amdgpu-VR` | Includes the (assumed) existing `desktop` tuned profile.<br/><br/>Adjusts the GPU power limit, clocks, _and_ the voltage curve.<br/><br/>Uses the predefined `VR` profile in the driver. See `/sys/class/drm/card*/device/pp_power_profile_mode` |
|
|
| `latency-performance-amdgpu-custom` | Includes the existing `latency-performance` tuned profile.<br/><br/>Like the existing GPU profiles (eg: _VR)), this also adjusts the GPU power limit, clocks, _and_ the voltage curve.<br/><br/>This differs by using the `custom` profile in the driver. This opens up further tweaking of the power/clock heuristics through the driver (currently manual). see: [pp-dpm](https://docs.kernel.org/gpu/amdgpu/thermal.html#pp-dpm) |
|
|
|
|
**Note**: This is non-exhaustive, see the variables `base_profiles` and `amdgpu_profiles` below for the (default) sources of the merged profile mapping
|
|
|
|
## Notable variables
|
|
- Power control: (float) multipliers to determine power _limits_ from board power _capability_
|
|
- `power_max_default_multi`: Controls power for the generated `default` GPU profile. Provided: `0.75` for 75% board power capability.
|
|
- `power_max_custom_multi`: Controls power for the generated `custom` GPU profile. Provided: `1.0` for 100% board power capability.
|
|
- `card`: Sets the `card#` to use in the qualified `sysfs` path `/sys/class/drm/{{ card }}/device/pp_power_profile_mode`. Default: `card0`
|
|
- `gpu_mv_offset`: optional, applies offset to GPU voltage, eg: `+100` = to boost GPU core voltage `100mV` or `0.1V`. Can undervolt.
|
|
- `base_profiles`: List of base tuned profiles to clone in the new AMDGPU profiles. Defaults (based on `Fedora`):
|
|
- `balanced`
|
|
- `desktop`
|
|
- `latency-performance`
|
|
- `network-latency`
|
|
- `network-throughput`
|
|
- `powersave`
|
|
- `virtual-host`
|
|
- `amdgpu_profiles`: Dictionary mapping the AMDGPU power profiles found in `/sys/class/drm/card*/device/pp_power_profile_mode`.
|
|
- Allows adjustment to the automatic power/clock handling in the GPU using either predefined profiles or `custom`
|
|
- More may be added, only three GPU power profiles are provided:
|
|
- default
|
|
- VR
|
|
- custom
|
|
- May vary by GPU/generation, sample (defaults, below) are from a 6900XT:
|
|
```
|
|
amdgpu_profiles:
|
|
default:
|
|
pwrmode: 0
|
|
VR:
|
|
pwrmode: 4
|
|
custom:
|
|
pwrmode: 6
|
|
```
