Subject: [PATCH v5 08/11] gpu: nova-core: add Falcon HAL method supports_dma()
Date: Fri, 2 Jan 2026 22:59:31 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260103045934.64521-9-ttabi@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260103045934.64521-1-ttabi@nvidia.com>

Some GPUs do not support using DMA to transfer code/data from system
memory to Falcon memory, and instead must use programmed I/O (PIO).
Add a function to the Falcon HAL to indicate whether a given GPU's
Falcons support DMA for this purpose.
