Subject: [PATCH v4 07/10] gpu: nova-core: gsp: cmdq: split the transport part of the receive path
Date: Fri, 09 Oct 2026 20:54:03 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261009-cmdq-rpc-v4-7-c9ab8de1d3f2@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261009-cmdq-rpc-v4-0-c9ab8de1d3f2@nvidia.com>
`receive_msg` currently handles both the transport and RPC layers.
Introduce the `MessageElement` trait to define how messages are
processed, independently of their type.
Keep the transport layer in `wait_for_msg`, and introduce
`consume_element`, a transport-level method which reads the message's
contents using an implementation of the `MessageElement` trait before
advancing the CPU read pointer past it. RPC messages are handled by the
`RpcMessageElement` wrapper, and the RPC part of `receive_msg` is moved
to its implementation of `MessageElement`. This sets things up for
moving the RPC code into its own module, leaving the transport agnostic
of the message type.
As a result of the new abstraction layer, RPC messages whose size is
unexpected are consumed instead of remaining on the queue.
