Subject: [PATCH v2 05/31] gpu: nova-core: add Falcon helpers for r000 LOAD_EXEC events
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2026 18:54:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260822015448.238214-6-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260822015448.238214-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com>
The r000 LOAD_EXEC events provide addresses for images that the driver
must copy into GSP Falcon IMEM and DMEM. The existing Falcon DMA path
creates its source buffer from a FalconFirmware object, so it cannot use
those addresses. The protocol also reports GSP RISC-V suspension through
MAILBOX0 bit 31 rather than CPUCTL.halted.
Add Falcon operations for DMA from event-provided addresses and for the
RISC-V suspend indication.
