Subject: [PATCH v2 23/32] gpu: nova-core: vgpu: add GSP plugin communication buffers
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 10:48:58 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260914074907.1399629-24-zhiw@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260914074907.1399629-1-zhiw@nvidia.com>
The GSP plugin uses a communication region in its management heap for
control data and logs. The vGPU manager reads its boot-ready marker through
BAR1.
Map this region with BarMapping and expose the firmware-defined control
and log regions. Keep the mapping's BarUser borrow until explicit teardown.
