High VmPeak when initializing OpenCL platofrm using clGetPlatformIDs on iMX8

[adeesh_kale_bshg]

When initializing platform, just the single call:

error = clGetPlatformIDs(1, &platform_id, nullptr);

causes a VmPeak for my process of 209 MB!

Of course, the running memory is not high, but the initial peak is causing application to get killed by oom_reaper on startup.

Is this a known issue? Is this something that is to be expected?

Yes this is for the MX8M Nano. Kernel 5.10. I can show a simple example that I ran to test:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <CL/cl.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    cl_platform_id pid = NULL;
    cl_int ret = clGetPlatformIDs(1, &pid, NULL);
    while (1)
        sleep(1);
    return 0;
}

So if I run this code and do a

$ cat /proc/<pid>/status

Then I get:

Hello,

Please send the complete log file and your test environment, also is this for MX8Mnano?
