Subject: [PATCH v5 09/13] gpu: nova-core: move GSP firmware files decision to GSP HAL
Date: Tue, 07 Jul 2026 16:21:42 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260707-nova-bootcontext-v5-9-ecad9346387f@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260707-nova-bootcontext-v5-0-ecad9346387f@nvidia.com>
From: Eliot Courtney <ecourtney@nvidia.com>
The files to give the `ModInfoBuilder` depend on the chipset; this is
HAL information, so move it there. Doing so lets us remove the
`uses_fsp` and `needs_fwsec_bootloader` ad-hoc methods of `Chipset`.
