Subject: [PATCH v2 02/13] gpu: nova-core: add ImemNonSecure section infrastructure
Date: Mon, 1 Dec 2025 17:39:11 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251201233922.27218-3-ttabi@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251201233922.27218-1-ttabi@nvidia.com>
The GSP booter firmware in Turing and GA100 includes a third memory
section called ImemNonSecure, which is non-secure IMEM. This section
must be loaded separately from DMEM and secure IMEM, but only if it
actually exists.
