From 3984cbbb3506c38458a21bd51015ef32dd2ba7a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jane Alesi Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2026 16:31:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fix(server): use GTT memory for Strix Halo VRAM monitoring On AMD Strix Halo (gfx1105) and Strix Point (gfx1102) APUs, the GPU uses unified GTT memory as its primary pool. The existing VRAM monitor only reads mem_info_vram_* (2GB LPDDR5 buffer), causing false 99% pressure readings and log spam (600+ lines/min). This fix: 1. Detects unified memory GPUs via KFD gfx_target_version 2. On unified GPUs, computes (vram_used + gtt_used) / (vram_total + gtt_total) 3. On discrete GPUs, uses the existing vram_only path 4. Skips nvidia-smi subprocess spawn entirely on AMD (reduces log spam) Tested on: Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 (gfx1105), 126GB unified memory.
