+*******************************************************************
+Oversubscription of hardware resources in AMD Instinct accelerators
+*******************************************************************
+
+When an AMD Instinct™ MI series accelerator enters an oversubscribed state, the ``amdgpu`` driver outputs the following
+message.
+
+``amdgpu: Runlist is getting oversubscribed. Expect reduced ROCm performance.``
+
+Oversubscription occurs when application demands exceed the available hardware resources. In an oversubscribed
+state, the hardware scheduler tries to manage resource usage in a round-robin fashion. However,
+this can result in reduced performance, as resources might be occupied by applications or queues not actively
+submitting work. The granularity of hardware resources occupied by an inactive queue can be in the order of
+milliseconds, during which the accelerator or GPU is effectively blocked and unable to process work submitted by other
+queues.
+
+What triggers oversubscription?
+===============================
+
+The system enters an oversubscribed state when one of the following conditions is met:
+
+* **Hardware queue limit exceeded**: The number of user-mode compute queues requested by applications exceeds the
+  hardware limit of 24 queues for current Instinct accelerators.
+
+* **Virtual memory context slots exceeded**: The number of user processes exceeds the number of available virtual memory
+  context slots, which is 11 for current Instinct accelerators.
+
+* **Multiple processes using cooperative workgroups**: More than one process attempts to use the cooperative workgroup
+  feature, leading to resource contention.
