Subject: [PATCH v9 28/31] gpu: nova-core: refactor SEC2 booter loading into BooterFirmware::run()
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2026 18:38:59 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326013902.588242-29-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260326013902.588242-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com>
Move the SEC2 reset/load/boot sequence into a BooterFirmware::run()
method, and call it from a thin run_booter() helper on Gsp. This is
almost a pure refactoring with no behavior change, done in preparation
for adding an alternative FSP boot path. The one slight difference is
that an MBOX1 printing typo is fixed:
Previous output:
NovaCore 0000:e1:00.0: SEC2 MBOX0: 0x0, MBOX10x1
Fixed output:
NovaCore 0000:e1:00.0: SEC2 MBOX0: 0x0, MBOX1: 0x1
