Subject: [PATCH v7 11/23] nova-core: mm: Add GpuMm centralized memory manager
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2026 16:20:08 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260218212020.800836-12-joelagnelf@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260218212020.800836-1-joelagnelf@nvidia.com>
Introduce GpuMm as the centralized GPU memory manager that owns:
- Buddy allocator for VRAM allocation.
- PRAMIN window for direct VRAM access.
- TLB manager for translation buffer operations.
This provides clean ownership model where GpuMm provides accessor
methods for its components that can be used for memory management
operations.
