Subject: [PATCH 23/27] gpu: nova-core: gsp: send GSP_INIT and decode its reply
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2026 20:52:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260819035221.336390-24-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260819035221.336390-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com>

GSP-RM answers a GSP_INIT request with the static GPU configuration, and
that reply is also what signals it has finished starting. It raises
load-and-execute events in the meantime, so a caller must handle them
rather than wait through them.

Nova-core can build the request but cannot send it: the GMC sender is
private, and the receive path drops the field carrying the reply status.

Add the sender and the receive-side status field it needs, and decode
the reply into the static-info type the RPC path already produces.
