Subject: [PATCH 02/24] drm/xe/eudebug: Add documentation
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2026 13:50:58 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260430105121.712843-3-mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260430105121.712843-1-mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com>
Add a core documentation for connection setup and events.
Followup patches can then incrementally add their workings.

+===================================
+Xe EU Debug (eudebug)
+===================================
+
+Overview
+========
+
+The EU Debug (eudebug) subsystem provides an interface for debugging
+Execution Unit (EU) workloads on Intel Xe GPUs, independently from
+CPU process debugging. This enables tools like GDB (via gdbserver-intelgt)
+to debug GPU compute workloads through the Level-Zero Debug API.
+In practice, this means that SYCL/DPC++ workloads submitted by the
+compute-runtime can be debugged interactively at this time.
+
+
+Connection Establishment
+========================

+
+Events
+======
+
+.. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_eudebug.c
+ :doc: Events
+
+
+Base Event Header
+-----------------
+
+The debugger receives events by reading from the eudebug file descriptor
+using an read_event ioctl. Every event has :c:type:`drm_xe_eudebug_event`
+as a header
+
+.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/drm/xe_drm_eudebug.h
+ :identifiers: drm_xe_eudebug_event
+
+Resource Event Types
+--------------------
+
+.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/drm/xe_drm_eudebug.h
+ :identifiers: drm_xe_eudebug_event_vm
