[PATCH v2 00/11] gpu: nova-core: Boot GSP to RISC-V active

[PATCH v2 00/11] gpu: nova-core: Boot GSP to RISC-V active

[Alistair Popple]

Changes since v1:

 - Based on feed back from Alex the GSP command queue logic was reworked
   extensively. This involved creating a new data struct (DmaGspMem) to
   manage the shared memory areas between CPU and GSP.

 - This data structure helps ensure the safety constraints are meet when
   the CPU is reading/writing the shared memory queues.

 - Several other minor comments were addressed, as noted in the individual
   patches.

This series builds on top of Alex's series[1], most of which has been
merged into drm-rust-next, to continue initialising the GSP into a state
where it becomes active and it starts communicating with the host. A tree
including these patches with the prerequisite patches is available at [2].

It includes patches to initialise several important data structures
required to boot the GSP. The biggest change is the implementation of the
command/message circular queue used to establish communication between GSP
and host in patch 6. Admittedly this patch is rather large - if necessary
it could be split into send and receive patches if people prefer.

This is required to configure and boot the GSP. However this series does
not get the GSP to a fully active state. Instead it gets it to a state
where the GSP sends a message to the host with a sequence of instructions
which need running to get to the active state. A subsequent series will
implement processing of this message and allow the GSP to get to the fully
active state.

A full tree including the prerequisites for this patch series is available
at https://github.com/apopple-nvidia/linux/tree/nova-core-for-upstream.

Any chance you give it this a const name? Otherwise 6 months later it
becomes a magic number ;-)

It's not really about DMA allocations that have been made previously, there is
no unsafe behavior in that.

It's about the method must not be called concurrently with any DMA allocation or
mapping primitives.

Can you please adjust the comment correspondingly?

> +        unsafe { pdev.dma_set_mask_and_coherent(DmaMask::new::<47>())? };

As Boqun mentioned, we shouldn't have a magic number for this. I don't know if
it will change for future chips, but maybe we should move this to gpu::Spec to
be safe.

At least, create a constant for it (also in gpu::Spec?); in Nouveau I named this
NOUVEAU_VA_SPACE_BITS back then. Not a great name, if you have a better idea,
please go for it. :)

It changes to 52 bits for GH100+ (Hopper/Blackwell+). When I post those
patches, I'll use a HAL to select the value.

Well it's certainly not the VA_SPACE width ... that's a different address space :-)

I thought from the context that the magic number was pretty obviously the
supported DMA address width in bits, especially given the extra decoration
of the DmaMask type. Certainly that's been the accepted practice for the rest
of the kernel where pretty much all drivers just use something of the form
dma_set_mask(drm_dev->dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(44)) or whatever DMA address widths
they support.

I mean, sure. But isn't the limitation of 47 bits coming from the MMU and hence
defines the VA space width and the DMA bit width we can support?

Not at all. The 47 bit limitation comes from what the DMA engines can physically
address, whilst the MMU converts virtual addresses to physical DMA addresses.
So the two address spaces are different and can have different widths. Indeed
most of our current GPUs have a virtual address space of 49 bits whilst only
supporting 47 bits of DMA address space.

I'm well aware -- what I'm saying is that the number given to
dma_set_mask_and_coherent() does not necessarily only depend on the physical bus
and DMA controller capabilities.

It may also depend on the MMU, since we still need to be able to map DMA memory
in the GPU's virtual address space.

Now, it seems that in this case the DMA engine is the actual limiting factor,
but is this the case for all architectures or may we have cases where the MMU
(or something else) becomes the limiting factor, e.g. in future architectures?

Sure, I'm probably being a bit loose with terminology - I'm not saying it
doesn't depend on the MMU capabilities just that the physical addressing limits
are independent of the virtual addressing limits so setting the DMA mask based
on VA_SPACE_BITS (ie. virtual addressing limits) seems incorrect.

Hmm. I'm not sure I follow - the virtual addressing capabilities of the GPU MMU
are entirely indepedent of the DMA addressing capabilities of the GPU and bus.
For example you can still use 49-bit GPU virtual addresses with 47-bits of DMA
bits or less and vice-versa.

So the DMA address mask has nothing to do with the virtual address (ie.
VA_SPACE) width AFAICT? But maybe we've got slightly different terminology?

I think no one said that physical addressing limits depend on virtual addressing
limits.

What I'm saying is that the DMA mask may depend on more than the physical
addressing limits or the DMA controller limits -- that's a different statement.

Again, no one said it has anything to do with virtual address space width, but
it has something to do with the physical addresses the MMU can handle.

Otherwise, let me answer with a question: What do we set the DMA mask to if the
DMA controller supports wider addresses than the MMU does? We still want to be
able to map DMA buffers in the GPU's virtual address space, no?

In other words, the value for the DMA mask may depend on multiple device
capabilities, i.e. physical bus, DMA controller, MMU, etc.

Hence, the DMA mask should be the minimum of all of those.

Whether we define all of them and compute the minimum, or just create a global
constant is a different question. But should at least document it cleanly.

Huh? I'm confused - this started with the name for a constant and the suggestion
was this constant was called `NOUVEAU_VA_SPACE_BITS` in Nouveau. That very much
implies to me at least it has something to do with virtual address width? I was
just trying to point out (maybe poorly) that it doesn't.

Lets be explicit with terminology - which MMU are you referring to here? The GPU
MMU (GMMU) or the CPU MMU or the CPU IOMMU?

Not that it matters because the device driver needs to set the DMA mask to the
maximum width DMA address that the device HW is capable of producing, which in
this case is 47-bits. Theoretically I suppose it's possible for someone to build
a GPU which could generate DMA addresses greater than what it's own GMMU could
address after translation, but that seems pretty strange and not something I'm
aware of or expect to happen in any of our devices.

But that doesn't impact what the GPU device should set it's DMA mask
to be. If the GPU can generate 47-bits of DMA addresses it should call
dma_set_mask(DmaMask::new::<47>).

IOW it's not up to the GPU device driver to decide what other devices in the
chain are capable of, that's what the kernel DMA API is for. For example if
the physical bus the GPU is plugged into is limited to 32-bits for some reason
the DMA API will ensure dma_map_page(), etc. wont return addresses greater than
32 bits.

> Hence, the DMA mask should be the minimum of all of those.

Right, but I don't think that impacts the GPU device driver in anyi way. The
GPU supports 47-bits of DMA addresses, so we set it to that. Obviously different
models of GPUs may have different capabilities, so some kind of HAL will be
needed to look that up, but I don't see a need for any kind of computation in
the driver.

[PATCH v2 02/10] gpu: nova-core: Create initial Gsp

[Alistair Popple]

The GSP requires several areas of memory to operate. Each of these have
their own simple embedded page tables. Set these up and map them for DMA
to/from GSP using CoherentAllocation's. Return the DMA handle describing
where each of these regions are for future use when booting GSP.

Changes for v2:

 - Renamed GspMemOjbects to Gsp as that is what they are
 - Rebased on Alex's latest series

I think we also need to provide the same guarantees as
`CoherentAllocation::as_slice_mut`: 

* Callers must ensure that the device does not read/write to/from memory
  while the returned slice is live.
* Callers must ensure that this call does not race with a read or write
  to the same region while the returned slice is live.

Unfortunately I don't think these are covered by this function alone -
it could perfectly be called on an allocation that is currently in use
by the hardware. So technically `create_pte_arrays` in its present form
should be unsafe, but that also would be overkill here since it is a
local function and we control the conditions into which it is called.

This PTE business, where we are taking any coherent allocation and
reinterpreting its bytes to create a page table, does not look very
clean to me anyway, so maybe we can solve this with a redesign. I'd
rather have that part of the object explicitly laid out, as it is for
`GspMem` later in this series (albeit with `u8` instead of `u64`):

    struct GspMem {
        ptes: [u8; GSP_PAGE_SIZE],
        ...

What would work best here IMHO would be to have a dedicated type for the
array of PTEs, which is placed at the beginning of each object
requesting one. Then we could have an init generic method for it that
takes a reference to any object and `dma_write!`s its entries, avoiding
the slice and having a guarantee that we have exclusive access to the
object since we just created it one line above. I need to think a bit
more about this but this should be a solid basis.

As it happens, loginit, logintr and logrm all have the same size, so we
should be able to declare a new type for these 3.

Once we have a dedicated type for DMA objects with PTEs, I suggest to
move this `dma_write` outside of this function. It doesn't bring any
value to have it here, and that way we can remove
`create_coherent_dma_object` altogether. Let me clarify below.

So with the proper PTE-prefixed type, this code would become:

    let loginit = PteDmaObject::new(dev)?;
    let logintr = PteDmaObject::new(dev)?;
    let logrm = PteDmaObject::new(dev)?;

    dma_write!(libos[0] = LibosMemoryRegionInitArgument::new("LOGINIT", &loginit))?;
    dma_write!(libos[1] = LibosMemoryRegionInitArgument::new("LOGINTR", &logintr))?;
    dma_write!(libos[2] = LibosMemoryRegionInitArgument::new("LOGRM", &logrm))?;

Note how loginit and friends now don't need to be mutable anymore.

It's getting late here so let me continue the review tomorrow. :)

Unfortunately there's a bit of a gotcha here - we can't actually use functions
like div_ceil as-is, because a number of 32 bit architectures do not support
u64 / u64 natively. The problem is we don't have __aeabi_uldivmod implemented
because we also don't want people to be defaulting to 64 bit division. Since
GSP_PAGE_SIZE can be 32 bits here, normally in C you would want to use
DIV_U64_ROUND_UP.

FWIW: I bumped the conversation thread on fixing this again ("General" → "64-
bit division" in the rust for linux zulip) since we've had 64 bit division
come up a couple of times now for rust in a few different places, so it's
probably good we come up with a solution for this so people don't keep having
to do workarounds :P.

I recall that we agreed that nova will depend upon CONFIG_64BIT.

Does that make this point N/A?

Oh! I apologize, I must have actually missed that memo :). If we're defending

I do enjoy the "defending" stance, that somehow does feel quite

[PATCH v2 03/10] gpu: nova-core: gsp: Create wpr metadata

[Alistair Popple]

The GSP requires some pieces of metadata to boot. These are passed in a
struct which the GSP transfers via DMA. Create this struct and get a
handle to it for future use when booting the GSP.

Signed-off-by: Alistair Popple <apopple@nvidia.com>

Changes for v2:
 - Rebased on Alex's latest version

Not something I think we need to block this series on, but this line does make
me wonder if we should have a variant of dma_write!() that uses
CoherentAllocation::write(), since I think that would actually be faster then
calling dma_write!() here.

JFYI ^ you can use .into() here instead of the full u64::from(…)

Can you elaborate a bit on this idea? Would it be faster because it uses
a non-volatile write in this case?

On a related note, I wish we could make all these accesses to
single-instance coherent allocations non-fallible, as this is a pattern
we use often in Nova and the only thing that can fail is
`item_from_index`, which we know at build-time is valid as we are
accessing the first element.

So if we enforced a rule that `count` must be >= 0 in
`CoherentAllocation::alloc_attrs` (which is not currently enforced but
would make sense imho), we could maybe add a new variant to
`dma_read/write` that matches a non-indexed expression, and makes a
non-fallible access to the first element of the allocation? How does
that sound?

Or we could also introduce a new type for single-instance allocations if
that makes more sense.

Would this have to be limited to the first element though? I assume we could
make a CoherentAllocation variant where the number of elements is a compile time
constant and therefore dma_read/write on those would be infallible except at
build time.

Oh yeah, we would have to try and write such a variant but AFAICT this
should work nicely.

Why do these need to be re-exported? I don't think we are using them
outside of fw.rs.

Thanks, they don't now that the structs are constructed in fw.rs. Will remove
them.

[PATCH v2 04/10] gpu: nova-core: Add a slice-buffer (sbuffer) datastructure

[Alistair Popple]

From: Joel Fernandes <joelagnelf@nvidia.com>

A data structure that can be used to write across multiple slices which
may be out of order in memory. This lets SBuffer user correctly and
safely write out of memory order, without error-prone tracking of
pointers/offsets.

 let mut buf1 = [0u8; 3];
 let mut buf2 = [0u8; 5];
 let mut sbuffer = SBuffer::new([&mut buf1[..], &mut buf2[..]]);

 let data = b"hellowo";
 let result = sbuffer.write(data);

An internal conversion of gsp.rs to use this resulted in a nice -ve delta:

Do we actually need deref() here? I would have assumed !s.is_empty() would be
enough (and if not, we could just do *s instead of calling deref().

Nope. !s.is_empty() appears to build just fine. Have fixed.

[PATCH v2 05/10] gpu: nova-core: gsp: Add GSP command queue handling

[Alistair Popple]

This commit introduces core infrastructure for handling GSP command and
message queues in the nova-core driver. The command queue system enables
bidirectional communication between the host driver and GSP firmware
through a remote message passing interface.

The interface is based on passing serialised data structures over a ring
buffer with separate transmit and receive queues. Commands are sent by
writing to the CPU transmit queue and waiting for completion via the
receive queue.

To ensure safety mutable or immutable (depending on whether it is a send
or receive operation) references are taken on the command queue when
allocating the message to write/read to. This ensures message memory
remains valid and the command queue can't be mutated whilst an operation
is in progress.

Currently this is only used by the probe() routine and therefore can
only used by a single thread of execution. Locking to enable safe access
from multiple threads will be introduced in a future series when that
becomes necessary.

This is a bit confusing - why are we calculating last here? It seems like you
should be able to just do this instead:

(&mut after_tx, &mut before_tx[0..0]) // (..0 also works)

Because if rx == 0 we need to remove one unit at the end of the ring buffer. Ie.
we can't take all of after_tx, just up until one from the end.

Alex actually just pointed out to me offline that the logic here is actually
completely wrong. So this will get rewritten for v3 - basically I didn't think
carefully enough when copying the write logic.

Hmm. I can't get it build without that syntax, I think because it needs to be a
slice. Naively just removing it doesn't work:

281 |         let sbuffer = SBuffer::new_writer([&mut payload_1, &mut payload_2]);
    |                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected `&mut [u8]`, found `&mut &mut [u8]`

And anything else needs the Copy trait. But I'm pretty new to Rust so please if
I'm missing something obvious let me know! Thanks.

Because whilst my assertions about the code are currently correct if it ever
changes I figured it would be better to explicitly panic than end up with
undefined behaviour. Is there some other advantage to using unwrap_unchecked()?
I can't imagine there'd be much of a performance difference.

Actually this snuck in from some of Alex's suggested code improvements (I had
intended to credit him in the commit message! Will fix that) so maybe he can
answer what he had in mind? I assumed arith overflow but maybe he meant ring
buffer overflow or something.

Here I think we should just use the `?` operator. The function already
returns a `Result` so it would fit.

I'd be willing to consider unwrapping is this can prevent an
obviously-unfallible method from having to return a `Result` - but here
this is not the case, and handling the error doesn't cost us more
than the `unwrap`, so let's do that.

I was thinking about arithmetic overflow, but maybe that was just
overthinking. :) We're probably not going to send a 4 GB payload anytime
soon...

Actually note quite true - this is in a closure that must return `Option<_>`
so returning `Result` doesn't fit. However it still fits because I just noticed
`::from_bytes()` returns an `Option` so `?` will still work.

Agreed. I assumed from_bytes() returned `Result<_>` which would not have worked
rather than `Option<_>` which will though.

Lets hope not :) I guess we might want `checked_add()` to panic if we've gone
insane though so have done that.

More in general, as by now, unwrap() panics the kernel, which is an absolute
last resort, that should only be considered if there's really no other option.
Please also see [1] and [2].

As I mentioned in v1, let's turn these into two enums to avoid this big
import and make sure we can never mix up the values.

This can be something like this in `fw.rs`:

#[repr(u32)]
pub(crate) enum VgpuMsgEvent {
    GspInitDone = bindings::NV_VGPU_MSG_EVENT_GSP_INIT_DONE,
    GspLockDownNotice = bindings::NV_VGPU_MSG_EVENT_GSP_LOCKDOWN_NOTICE,
    ...
}

Then you just need to import `VgpuMsgEvent`, and can use that type where
appropriate, e.g. for the `FUNCTION` associated type of
`GspMessageFromGsp`.

Do we need to repeat `Gsp` in these trait names? `CommandToGsp` and
`MessageFromGsp` should be fine.

(I am also guilty of prefixing type names to avoid name collisions - a
habit inherited from years of C programming, but since we are already in
the `gsp` module we can forgo this habit as users can just import the
module and refer to the type as `gsp::MessageFromGsp` if there is any
ambiguity).

These ARE used outside the kernel, since they are shared with the GSP.
:) I'd say the reason these are safe is just because we satisfy the
requirements of AsBytes and FromBytes:

- No initialized bytes,
- No interior mutability,
- All bytes patterns are valid (for some generous definition of
  "valid" limited to not triggering UB).

Since these two methods are only called once each from
`driver_write/read_area`, let's inline them there and reduce our
`unsafe` keyword counter.

As we discussed offline, this method is incorrect (amongst other things,
it returns the whole ring buffer when it should be empty). Posting my

Maybe add one line of documentation for these. Generally I think we want
a bit more high-level documentation explaining how the ring buffers are
operating.

Similar to my previous comment, we can just name this `Cmdq` since we
are already in the `gsp` module.

As a general comment, let's also document our types/methods a bit more,
explaining at least what they are for.

This works pretty well for in-place initialization.

There a couple of small drawbacks though: `M` must implement `FromBytes`
even though we only send it, and (more serious) there is no guarantee
that `init` will fully initialize the command - a forgetful caller can
omit some of its fields, or even the whole structure, and in that case
we will send a command with what happened to be at that position of the
queue at that time.

I think this is a good case for using the `Init` trait: it's like
`PinInit`, but without the `Pin`, and it ensures that the whole argument
is initialized. So this method would change into something like:

    pub(crate) fn send_gsp_command<M: GspCommandToGsp>(
        &mut self,
        bar: &Bar0,
        payload_size: usize,
        init: impl Init<M, Error>,
        init_sbuf: impl FnOnce(SBuffer<core::array::IntoIter<&mut [u8], 2>>) -> Result,

This also allows us to drop the `FromBytes` requirement on
`GspCommandToGsp`! But also requires us to use `unsafe` to call
`Init::__init` on the pointer to the command. I think it's worth it
though, as this removes the risk of sending partially-uninitialized
commands.

Then there is what to do with the `SBuffer`. I'd like to think a bit
more about this, as not all commands require it, and those that do
typically send arrays of particular types. I think we should be able to
use the type system to have more control over this, but let's keep that
for the next revision.

I think we can use it if we enable the "slice_flatten" feature (stable
since 1.80, introduced in 1.67).

We will want (either you or I) to address these TODOs for the next

I'm a bit surprised that we always write `0` here, can we document this
behavior, maybe in the definition of `NV_PGSP_QUEUE_HEAD`?

Beware that `split_at` will panic if the slice is shorter than the
passed argument. So we must check here that the driver area is larger
than `GspMsgElement`.

If we have a message in the queue and this condition doesn't hold, I
don't think we can hope that it will in a further iteration - this
should be an error.

There is an issue here - payload_1 and payload_2 cover the *whole* area
that is readable by the driver, not just the first message in the queue.

If there is more than one message pending when this method is called, we
will get a wrong checksum and skip all the following messages. We need
to truncate payload_1/payload_2 to cover the exact area of the first
message only.

This should be done way earlier. At this point we have already converted
the command bytes slices into M, which is invalid if it happens that
this condition doesn't hold.

(on a related note, the checksum verification should also be done before
we interpret the message, as a corrupted message could make us cast
`cmd` into something that it is not)

There is a landmine here. `msg_header.rpc.length` contains the length of
the payload, INCLUDING the RPC header itself, but NOT INCLUDING the
remainder of `msg_header`. Therefore the correct statement should be:

    self.gsp_mem.advance_cpu_read_ptr(
        (size_of_val(msg_header) as u32 - size_of_val(&msg_header.rpc) as u32
            + msg_header.rpc.length)
            .div_ceil(GSP_PAGE_SIZE as u32),
    );

Of course, it looks horrible, so we want to hide this member altogether
and provide a nice, well-documented method that returns something that
is immediately useful for us. More on that in `fw.rs`.

(the previous use of `length` in this method is also incorrect).

Once we have proper enums for the function and events, this can be an

I guess the number of pages in the message queue is firmware-dependent,
so would it make sense to move its declaration to this module?

This should be wrapped into a newtype that provides the exact set of
features required by the gsp module, like what is done for
`LibosMemoryRegionInitArgument`. For this type we just need two things:
return the `writePtr`, and advance it by a given value. That's all
the parent module needs to see.

By just aliasing this type, we make all its members visible to the `gsp`
module. This increases its dependency on a given firmware version,
carries a risk that the GSP module will mess with what it is not
supposed to, and introduces inconsistency in how we abstract the
firmware types - some are wrapped, others are not. Let's be consistent
and make all bindings completely opaque outside of `fw.rs`.

This type too is another good illustration of why we should make our
bindings opaque. In `cmdq.rs` we access `GspRpcHeader::length` multiple
times, ignoring the fact that it also includes the size of the RPC
header itself - not just what comes after it! Since it doesn't come with
any documentation, we can be forgiven for assuming the obvious - that it
is just the size of what follows, but it is not.

What we actually want is a method on `GspMsgElement` that returns what
we actually want (and is documented as such): the actual size of the
payload following the whole header. That way there can be no room for
mistake.

Hammering my previous argument a bit more: in `cmdq.rs`, we do the
following:

    let msg_header = GspMsgElement::from_bytes(msg_header_slice).unwrap();

Even though we explicitly used `GspMsgElement`, `msg_header` appears as
being of type `GSP_MSG_QUEUE_ELEMENT` in LSP. That's super confusing and
can be avoided by using the newtype pattern.

Lastly, the bindings generated from C headers are supposed to be temporary, and
we eventually want to replace them with direct IDL-to-Rust bindings. Not
leaking the C types let us design `fw.rs` as a blueprint for the ideal
interface we would want to generate - so the limited extra labor that
comes with wrapping these types would also pay off in that respect.

Nah, and actually they're quite confusing really. Gsp sending a message from the
Gsp. Will fix them up.

Indeed. Old habits die hard and all that.

Yes, and they're actually old safety comments that I missed updating to be the
same as the rest.

I was under the impression that that's all `unsafe` is really marking - code
the compiler can't prove won't trigger UB. So I'd assume that's all we'd have to
prove in safety comments anyway.

Thanks, similar to what I had. Although I also had this to avoid the panic later
when no message is present:

Yeah, good idea. Something I've been meaning to do (document the ring buffer a
bit better).

Good timing as I was just looking to see if there wasn't some way of ensuring
this happened, or at least was much more explicit than what we currently do.

Agree on it being worth the unsafe call, especially because it is unsafe if the
caller doesn't do what it's supposed to regardless. But how does this contrast
with `MaybeUninit`? I was wondering if something like this would work:

    pub(crate) fn send_gsp_command<M: GspCommandToGsp>(
        &mut self,
        bar: &Bar0,
        payload_size: usize,
        init: impl FnOnce(MaybeUninit<&mut M>, SBuffer<core::array::IntoIter<&mut [u8], 2>>) -> Result<&M>,

Note I'm not sure we could actually make that work as I haven't tried it yet. I
suspect I've missed something with lifetimes there :-)

Sure. You are correct that not all (most?) commands don't need it, and it's a
shame we don't have proper bindings for them anyway. Although in some cases that
still wouldn't work anyway (eg. for registry keys) where it really is just a
packed variable number of variable length strings. Not sure what a Rust native
representation of that would be.

Ok, will try that. Hopefully explicitly using the feature also makes clippy
happy but if not I guess we can leave the over-rides below.

I was also suprised the value doesn't matter but this is what both Nouveau and
OpenRM do. I guess it just triggers some kind of notification on the GSP and the
actual queue head is read from the shared memory pointers.

I was thinking messages may get partially written and we'd see this state, but
you're right - the shared pointers shouldn't be updated until the entire message
is written so this should be an error.

That will require the `wait_on_result()` function, because `wait_on()` doesn't
allow the closure to return a failure. We could just return Option<Result<_>>
from the closure but that's a bit gross, because wait_on() would then return
Result<Option<Result<_>>>.

It's not firmware dependent - it appears we can set it to whatever we reasonably
want (for some value of "reasonable) so long as we allocate the right buffer
sizes, etc. I noticed and tested this a while back when removing some magic
numbers.

That said 0x3f is what I chose because that's what Nouveau and I think OpenRM
use.

Except that doesn't actually work, because we need to use DMA access methods on
bindings::msgqTxHeader which we can't do from an accessor.

I can't see how accessors in `fw.rs` for every firmware binding we use is useful
though[1]? In what way does that reduce dependency on a given firmware version?
I can't see how it isn't just adding boiler plate for every struct field we want
to access.

We already have higher level abstractions (eg. DmaGspMem) to ensure the GSP
won't mess with what it isn't supposed to, and these higher level abstractions
also provide more options to reduce dependency on a given firmware version as
the logic isn't as tightly coupled to the binding representation. It also allows
us to access the fields using the proper DMA access methods.

This has nothing to do with the bindings being opaque or not though. I can
almost gurantee that after writing ten brain dead accessor functions that the
eleventh would have looked pretty similar and included the same bug!

The length calculation can just be a method on GspRpcHeader without requiring
the rest of the fields to need accessor functions as welli though.

Take for example a structure that we will need in future, GspStaticConfigInfo_t.
This currently has 53 fields, although to be fair maybe we only care about half
of them.

My proposal[2] is to convert them into an abstract nova-core specific type,
GspConfigInfo, that contains the specific details Nova users care about.
Following the implied rule that no field accessors shall leak from fw.rs would
require accessors for all fields. That's at least another 78 lines (assuming a
minimal 3 line accessor function) of boiler plate for one FW structure. Multiply
that by many structures and you now have a lot of boiler plate for no real gain
and a very large fw.rs (note my example[2] only contains one field, but I expect
we will need a lot more if not most of them).

That's surprising. I would have hoped the LSP would be more helpful than that.

I agree with this - `fw.rs` should be the blueprint for the ideal bindings
that we could conceivably generate directly from IDL. But this is also why
I'm pushing back against the idea of putting any kind of logic (in the form of
accessors/constructors) into `fw.rs` - I doubt you will ever be able to generate
those from IDL.

For example I doubt it would be possible to generate the length logic, and I'm
even more doubtful we could figure out how to generate the constructors based on
Rust type.

So to summarise where I think we're at we have two proposals for how to
treat/use the generated bindings:

1) Make them all a newtype[3] using a transparent wrapper to make the fields
opaque and accessor functions to implement the logic. This would all be in fw.rs
to stop the C types leaking out.

2) Build a completely new type based on the underlying bindings plus whatever
other logic is needed. The C types could be used within the `gsp` module to
implement the new types but would not leak further than that.

Using GspStaticConfigInfo_t as a concrete example I think option (1) looks like
this:

In fw.rs:

#[repr(transparent)]
pub(crate) struct GspStaticConfigInfo(bindings::GspStaticConfigInfo_t);

impl GspStaticConfigInfo {
    pub(crate) fn new(gsp: &mut Gsp) -> Result<Self> {
        // Create GspStaticConfigInfo sending whatever messages needed to the Gsp.
    }
    
    pub(crate) fn gpu_name(self) -> String {
        ...
    }    

    pub(crate) fn sriov_max_gfid(self) -> u32 {
        self.0.sriovMaxGfid
    }

    pub(crate) fn fb_length(self) -> u64 {
       self.0.fb_length
    }

    pub(crate) fn ats_supported(self> -> bool {
        self.0.bAtsSupported != 0
    }

    // More for every field we need
    ...
}

And Option (2) could look more like this:

In commands.rs:

pub(crate) struct GspStaticConfigInfo {
    pub gpu_name: String,
    pub sriov_max_gfid: u32,
    pub fb_length: u64,
    pub ats_supported: bool,
}

impl GspStaticConfigInfo {
    pub(crate) fn new(gsp: &mut Gsp) -> Result<Self> {
        // Create GspStaticConfigInfo sending whatever messages needed to the Gsp.
    }
}

Peronally I favour option (2) because it is more concise and allows us to
split the code up more. It is also more resilient to FW changes as it doesn't
depend on the underlying representation at all. However based on your feedback
I think you favour option (1) more so I want to make sure I'm understanding
it correctly.

A good rule of thumb for writing `SAFETY` statements is to look at the
`Safety` section of the unsafe code we call (here `FromBytes`), and
justify why our calling code satisfies each of these.

The difference with using `MaybeUninit` is that the unsafe code would
need to be *within* each `init` argument - IOW, within each caller. It
also does not provide any guarantee that the whole `M` is initialized,
we have to trust each caller for doing that properly.

I've tried implementing using `Init` and it works even better than I
thought. Each type actually automatically implement `Init` on itself,
which means that instead of implicitly calling init!() as in

  cmdq.send_gsp_command(bar, init!(MyCommand {
    foo: ...,
  }), ...);

You can just pass an object as a stack argument and it will also work!

  cmdq.send_gsp_command(bar, MyCommand {
    foo: ...,
  }, ...);

Of course in this case the `MyCommand` instance is first passed on the
stack before being copied into the command-queue, but for small commands
this is pretty convenient. Larger ones can use the `init!` syntax for
full in-place initialization.

For now the best I could think of is to have not one but two traits for
GSP commands: one for commands with payload and another one for commands
without payload. And two variants of `send_gsp_command` for each case.
That way we can at least guarantee that we won't pass a payload where we
shouldn't, or forget one where we should.

I got a prototype of this working and along with the `Init` thing it
feels pretty right.

I think you will also need to explicitly enable the feature somewhere -
for the kernel crate it is in `rust/kernel/lib.rs`, but Nova being a
different crate I am not sure where we are supposed to do it...

In that case I think we should definitely document this - or even
better, if it nevers makes sense to write anything else than 0 to
`NV_PGSP_QUEUE_HEAD`, to add an explicit method (e.g. `kick`?) that does
this for us. Can you try and go to the bottom of this?

We can now use `read_poll_timeout` (from `kernel::io::poll`) which
separates the acquisition of the state and the test of the condition
into two separate closures - the first one returns a `Result`, and its
error is propagated as-is, which is what we want in this case.

Actually this reminded me that I should send a patch to remove `wait_on`
altogether now that we have a better alternative! :)

Ah, that's great and makes perfect sense! So I suppose the
`pageTableEntryCount` member of the `MESSAGE_QUEUE_INIT_ARGUMENT` is to
pass the total size of the message queue. I'm starting to think about a
version of the command queue where its size would be a generic argument,
but let's keep that for a later patch, if we ever want it at all. :)

If the accessor uses `read_volatile` and `write_volatile` then I guess
it should work? These are unsafe though, so this is not ideal, but at
least they would be contained into the `fw` module and limited to one
getter and one setter.

While the main point of this remains hiding stuff other modules don't
need to see, it also allows us to choose stable method names that are
independent from the firmware.

`DmaGspMem` is a special case - it is in shared memory and requires
volatile reads and writes at runtime. And yes it also provides a
higher-level abstraction to access the driver's readable and writable
areas of the ring buffer - I think these are at the right place in
`cmdq.rs`.

But we also have other types that we build on the stack, even if we move
them to a DmaObject afterwards. `fw.rs` should provide constructors and
simple primitives for these, on top of which the command queue logic can
be built. Right now we are initializing their fields in `cmdq` and I
think we can agree this is not very portable.

To clarify further, our sole business with half of the bindings types is
initializing them to some value that makes sense and put it somewhere.
For this we only need a constructor. We don't need to know the names of
their fields, and we don't want to know.

Other bindings types are message-related, and we need to access their
contents. You discuss these in more detail below so let's address them
there.

Then the last kind are the types related to the command queue runtime
operation - namely the Rx/Tx headers and their read/write pointers, and
the message headers that we need to read and write. For the former we
only need to poke at their pointers using volatile accesses, which is
two methods that I propose to have for that purpose. For the latter we
only need to access a handful of fields, some of which can be tricky
(like `length`). In any case, we are talking about a handful of methods
here to keep the abstraction opaque.

More on messages below as you make an interesting point on them.

It does very much have to do with making the binding opaque. If it is
not opaque, and the original `length` is accessible, what is preventing
code from using it and repeating the same mistake again?

I don't quite get where the "ten brain dead accessor functions" would
come from. I propose we write one, that returns a value that makes sense
(contrary to the original member), and most importantly is documented so
users can know exactly what it does. Tell me what is brain-dead about
that? This very patch misused the `length` member on at least two
different occasions, isn't the benefit clear?

I am not opposed to having a nova-core specific type, and in the case of
GspStaticConfigInfo_t is certainly seems to make sense. Actually it even
does what we want here, since with that design this type should not be
visible outside of the `fw` module, right?

Now to be fair, one needs to also consider that this new
GspStaticConfigInfo type will also need its own boilerplate-y code to
initialize itself from the original GspStaticConfigInfo_t, field by
field. But in the end we would have a type that provides us with the
abstraction that we need for the GSP module, while making the bindings
type invisible - this fits the bill, and looks arguably nicer than
having too many accessors so why not!

One can even argue that the wrapping pattern is just a simpler version
of this - we create a new type to hide the bindings' internals and
provide us with the right interface. It is just that for many
commands/messages the payload is so small that it is actually less code
to just wrap it and provide a few utility methods. GspStaticConfigInfo_t
is certainly an exception.

`fw.rs` should contain the minimum required to build the logic on top of
it, agreed. Doing so might require having another type on top of the one
defined in `fw` to implement said logic - if you remember I did
something like that for MsgqTxHeader and you thought that was too
convulated. :)

Where to put the length logic depends on how our firmware interface is
defined. If we agree that `length` is "The size of the RPC header, the
following command, and its payload but oh wait we don't include the rest
of the message element which includes the RPC header so don't forget to
add it" then we can just return or use the member as-is. But it's a bad
and error-prone interface. We can document it, and that in itself would
be an improvement, but it would still require some mental gymnastic to
use and is just a giant footgun.

What is safe and useful is the length of the entire message, header,
command and payload included, because that's how we use it in the code.
It's also trivial to produce, and if we do it here we only do that
operation on one place instead of at each calling site. So yes, it
belongs here, as part of the firmware abstraction, and if we have to
write it by hand then so be it.

The same goes for the constructor. Of course there will be some manual
work needed to include a new incompatible firmware version. But if you
don't do it here, you will have to do that work somewhere else anyway -
probably `gsp` or `cmdq`, except without the elegance of a method
containing that code. How is that better?

To make a fair comparison your Option (2) should include this:

impl TryFrom<GspStaticConfigInfo_t> for GspStaticConfigInfo {
  type Error = kernel::Error;

  fn try_from(value: GspStaticConfigInfo_t) -> Result<Self, Self::Error>
  {
    let gpu_name = // extract gpu string from `value`.
    ...

    Ok(Self {
      gpu_name,
      sriov_max_fgid: value.sriovMaxGid,
      fb_length: value.fb_length,
      ats_supported: value.bAtsSupported != 0,
      // More for every field we need
    })
  }
}

Because you are not only going to create this type from the `Gsp`, but
also from a message you have received as per the code.

My constraints are that I want the binding types to be opaque and
abstracted in a way that is portable and makes sense for the higher
levels. If Option (2) satisfies these constraints (and in the case of
GspStaticConfigInfo_t I believe it does), then I'm fine with it where is
makes sense, and for large types with many fields I think we can make
the case that it does.

I also think this really only applies to messages received from the GSP,
as commands NEED to be laid out in-place in the format that the firmware
expects, so there is little room for using a temporary type where we can
have an in-place constructor that is just as convenient and will use
less stack space. Still, in theory we could also use that technique for
e.g. very complex commands that would benefit from the constructor
pattern.

But for messages from the GSP, why not. There is an additional cost to
consider related to the conversion from one type to the other, and that
will require extra complexity like an associated type in the
MessageFromGsp trait, so for very simple messages a wrapper might be a
better fit, but otherwise, I think it's fair game.

Thanks. Is it still expected that `#[allow(clippy::incompatible_msrv)]` is
required? Just adding it to `rust_allowed_features` doesn't make the warning go

The warning is independent of the allowed features, and yeah, it is
expected that the Clippy may trigger (at this moment when we dance
with these features), so you can just allow it locally.

If it is too cumbersome, I may disable it globally.

I hope that helps!

Thanks! That does help, it's not too cumbersome as we only use it in a few
places. I was just wondering if it was expected or not. A nice future quality
of life improvement might be to automatically disable clippy warnings for
everything in `rust_allowed_features` but I think that's pretty low priority.

Oh that's usually where I get my inspiration for them from. This was more a
statement of my understanding of the language design, that unsafe is mostly
about UB rather than overall struct validity. After all I think it is still
possible to have safe code initialise fields of a struct in "invalid" ways
(depending on the struct).

I suggested it because I was actually thinking that would be a feature :-) After
all callers are the ones doing the initialisation and so have to be trusted to
do that, and the unsafe call to `assume_init()` would be the indication they
have to do something right.

But I'm not particularly tied to using that, it was an idle thought/question. I
do wonder how Init gets around callers having to guarantee the whole of `M` is
initialised, so will have to go study it a bit more closely.

Nice!

Yeah I think that's fine. Most commands are small and should fit on the stack
anyway.

We can't guarantee that (at least with the current bindings) because we
still need to manually mark up the types with the correct traits. But if the
majority of commands don't have a payload I agree it would provide some nice
simplifications for callers.

Sure, I'll put a kick method on the command queue and some documentation
covering that.

Oh nice. That looks like it should do the job.

I guess the implies we shouldn't add new callers of `wait_on` ... not sure
if there are others in this series but will take a look and convert them to
read_poll_timeout.

Sure, `read_volatile()` and `write_volatile` would work but then we're adding
more unsafe calls and going around the DMA subsystem which has special
exceptions for justifying the SAFETY comments.

I agree but I also can't see where we are doing that in `cmdq`? I already added
constructors for those after the last round of review but maybe I missed one?

So an example of that would be GspSystemInfo right? I can see why a constructor
would be helpful for that, but does it have to go in fw.rs? What is wrong with
having the constructor implementation in eg. commands.rs where it is
currently[1]? That would help us split up fw.rs so it doesn't become unwieldy.

[1] - Admittedly there isn't an explicit constructor at the moment, because
initialisation needs to happen in place in the closure, but conceptually it
could have one and serves as an example.

It's largely the whole concept of keeping the details of the command queue
opaque from the thing implementing the command queue (the cmdq module) that
seems strange to me. If anything in the firmware command queue changes it's
unlikely the command queue implementation will remain the same.

Nothing, and nothing is preventing someone writing an accessor to access the
length or some other field and using it incorrectly if that's what they think
they need. Making the fields opaque just means more code and more code generally
means more bugs and more maintenance when things inevitably change.

To be clear I'm not disagreeing with the need for a method to get the length
of a message - I'm disagreeing with the requirement to make the binding fields
opaque to the rest of the Gsp module that needs them (as distinct from the rest
of nova-core - bindings should definitely not leak outside the Gsp abstraction).

The "ten brain dead accessor functions" comes from an assumption that eventually
we will need to access most fields in these structs (otherwise why would they
exist?) which would require many accessor functions to simply read/write the
fields. This is still an early implementation and I imagine as we grow to
support more features most of the fields will be needed.

I feel like this is largely where the confusion/disagreement lies - what the
`gsp` module provides versus what the `fw` module provides. My thinking is that
the types don't leak outside the `gsp` module, the `fw` is really just providing
raw binding information that the `gsp` module turns into something nice/abstract
for the rest of nova-core in the form of functions (or types) to do whatever
is needed.

Exactly! Although it would be nice if we could wrap without needing all the
accessors, hence the suggestion of a type alias which could easily be turned
into a separate struct. If say the firmware binding type changed we could easily
construct the old struct from whatever the new type(s) are (which could even
involve extra GSP RPC calls or something else for example).

Types (plural) yes, but a type I have no problem with :-)

My thinking is DmaGspMem is that type. In other words things like the
read/writePtr accessors (which if I recall correctly you had spread across 3
types) can just live there - we don't need to hide them behind some opaque type
in fw.rs (and indeed doing so introduces more unsafe code as discussed above).

Oh yeah, for sure. I'm not arguing against a method to calculate the length
we want. I'm just thinking it lives on the binding type as a method. Eg:

impl bindings::GSP_MSG_QUEUE_ELEMENT {
    pub(crate) fn message_length(self) -> u32 {
        (size_of::<Self>() as u32 - size_of::<GspRpcHeader>() as u32 + self.rpc.length)
    }
}

And that probably lives in the cmdq code in order to keep any non-generatable
logic out of fw.rs (but I could be convinced otherwise). And yes the name is
horrible, but we can fix that easily enough in the binding generation.

Just to re-iterate, I am not insane enough to want that mistake spread
everywhere. I just don't understand the advantage of putting this in fw.rs
rather than in the code using it and providing the abstraction (cmdq.rs),
nor the need to hide the rest of the rpc message header fields from the thing
implementing the abstraction.

IOW the rpc header shouldn't be used outside the cmdq.rs code anyway so why jump
through hoops in fw.rs to hide the fields.

Again, not against the methods at all. Just that we should add them as needed
rather than force them for every single field that will probably never change
anyway.

Hmm. I hadn't thought of TryFrom! I like this idea - but if I'm understanding
your previous comments correctly this would also have to live fw.rs rather than
commands.rs?

I suppose what I'm looking for (and maybe I've read too much into previous
comments) is a design for how we want to deal with all of this and I was
extrapolating it from the comments on "bindings shall not leak out of fw.rs".

It seems this may be being done in a piece meal manner as we're merging patches,
so maybe it would be helpful to get a design or some guidelines written up here?

The goal is that firmware specific structures (and the majority of their
implementation details) don't leak into the business logic of the driver code.

Of course, due to its nature the `gsp` module can't be entirely independent from
firmware specifics. However, think of it in different layers:

If we encapsulate the layout of firmware specific structures in new types (i.e.
wrap firmware structures into new types in the `fw` module), all changes to the
layout of a structure, new features, etc. are local to and can be handled
transparently by this abstraction layer.

Once we actually introduce a second firmware version, we will also introduce the
corresponding proc macros to annotate those structures accordingly with
`#[versions(GSP)]` and let the proc macro generate the version specific
structures, which subsequently allows us to treat the new types in the `fw`
module as if they'd be existing only once (and not per firmware version).

Hence, all the other code in the GSP module can be left untouched unless a new
firmware version introduces semantical changes (which should be rare).

This is not only a major advantage when it comes to maintainability (which is
one of the major motivations for the Nova project to begin with), but also leads
to a much cleaner structure and naturally separates the layout of data from its
semantics.

Yes, it does require a bit more code to set it up to begin with, but it avoids a
horrible mess leaking trivial firmware changes into the semantic layers of the
GSP implementation.

But even if that would never happen and the firmware interface would never
change (which I think will not and should not happen), the separation of how to
lay out data and the implementation of the semantics by itself adds clarity and
helps with maintainability.

The feedback Alex gave in this context looks pretty in line with the above.

I hope this helps.

No you are correct, unsafe blocks are blocks of code where the
responsibility for preventing UB shifts from the compiler to the
developer. The statements in `FromBytes` are here to prevent UB.

For instance, if you have the following:

#[repr(u8, C)]
enum Switch {
  Off = 0,
  On = 1,
}

#[repr(C)]
struct Light {
  switch: Switch,
  intensity: u8,
}

Then the compiler can make the assumption that `switch` will only ever
be 0 or 1, and allow UB when it is not. `FromBytes` cannot be
implemented for that structure. So in that sense, struct validity must
be withheld.

What does not need to be withheld, is e.g. GSP messages that are
structurally sound from a type point of view, but don't make any sense
semantically. For these the code should produce a runtime error while
validating them - but this is not a source of UB as long as the types
they contain indeed satisfy the requirement that any bit pattern is
valid for them.

(tbh I am not sure myself why interior mutability is not allowed)

The only reason for `MaybeUninit` to be `unsafe` is because the user
might leave fields uninitialized or set to values that are invalid for
their type. The unsafe operation is here to shift the blame on the
developer who forget to set their fields properly.

With `Init`, such mistake cannot happen, as all fields must be
initialized (like a regular initialization) or you get a build error. So
we know for sure that the structure is properly initialized, and UB
cannot occur, hence no need for unsafe.

Of course the command thus initialized can still be invalid in the
semantic sense - but in this case the GSP will detect that upon
reception, and send us an error. As far as the compiler is concerned,
this is working as intended.

Yes, the idea would be that each command implements one trait or the
other depending on whether it needs an extra payload. This needs to be
done manually, but we are already manually implementing `CommandToGsp`
so this is not much different.

Note that this won't be usable in drm-rust-next until -rc1 is tagged,
but we can assume it will be usable for us.

There are a few - if we could use read_poll_timeout proactively that
would be great.

Honestly I myself don't understand why we can call `dma_write!` safely
wherever we want - technically there is nothing that guarantees that
what we access is not concurrently accessed by the device.

The volatile accesses are unsafe because they operate on pointers. I'd
rather do without but we will need them if we want to keep the bindings
opaque.

That's one of the funny things the firmware can do, amongst others. :)

And yes, I agree that if the firmware changes too much this can
invalidate the whole of the GSP module, no abstraction will ever protect
us completely against that. But `fw` can be our first line of defense,
and also a logical break similar to the role `rust/kernel` fulfills
for the larger kernel [1]: the `kernel` crate is allowed to call the
C bindings, but not the drivers. Similarly, to access our GSP bindings,
we need to go through the `fw` sanitization layer.

[1] https://docs.kernel.org/next/rust/general-information.html#abstractions-vs-bindings

So to conclude on this topic (since we also synced offline and I see you
already have a v3 in which the bindings don't leak `fw`: yes, we need a
thin shim on top of the bindings to make them opaque, and yes this
results in a bit more code overall, but it also makes the upper layer
(gsp, cmdq) more concise and easier to read. No design is set in stone,
and as we get more visibility into what we need things can perfectly
evolve, but I think this is a reasonable state for now that requires
only a very modest amount of labor.

[PATCH v2 06/10] gpu: nova-core: gsp: Create rmargs

[Alistair Popple]

Initialise the GSP resource manager arguments (rmargs) which provide
initialisation parameters to the GSP firmware during boot. The rmargs
structure contains arguments to configure the GSP message/command queue
location.

These are mapped for coherent DMA and added to the libos data structure
for access when booting GSP.

Wrapping our bindings is going to help clean up this code as well.

First, types named in CAPITALS_SNAKE_CASE are not idiomatic Rust and
look like constants. And it's not even like the bindings types are
consistently named that way, since we also have e.g. `GspFwWprMeta` - so
let's give them a proper public name and bring some consistency at the
same time.

This will make all the fields from `GSP_ARGUMENTS_CACHED` invisible to
this module as they should be, so the wrapping `GspArgumentsCached` type
should then have a constructor that receives a referene to the command
queue and takes the information is needs from it, similarly to
`GspFwWprMeta`. This will reduce the 3 `dma_write!` into a single one.

Then we should remove `get_cmdq_offsets`, which is super confusing. I am
also not fond of `cmdq.nr_ptes`. More on them below.

So this thing returns 3 u64s, one of which is actually a DMA handle,
while the two others are technically constants. The only thing that
needs to be inferred at runtime is the DMA handle - all the rest is
static.

So we can make the two last returned values associated constants of
`GspCmdq`:

  impl GspCmdq {
      /// Offset of the data after the PTEs.
      const POST_PTE_OFFSET: usize = core::mem::offset_of!(GspMem, cpuq);

      /// Offset of command queue ring buffer.
      pub(crate) const CMDQ_OFFSET: usize = core::mem::offset_of!(GspMem, cpuq)
          + core::mem::offset_of!(Msgq, msgq)
          - Self::POST_PTE_OFFSET;

      /// Offset of message queue ring buffer.
      pub(crate) const STATQ_OFFSET: usize = core::mem::offset_of!(GspMem, gspq)
          + core::mem::offset_of!(Msgq, msgq)
          - Self::POST_PTE_OFFSET;

`GspArgumentsCached::new` can then import `GspCmdq` and use these to
initialize its corresponding members.

Remains `nr_ptes`. It was introduced in the previous patch as follows:

    let nr_ptes = size_of::<GspMem>() >> GSP_PAGE_SHIFT;

Which turns out to also be a constant! So let's add it next to the others:

impl GspCmdq {
    ...
    /// Number of page table entries for the GSP shared region.
    pub(crate) const NUM_PTES: usize = size_of::<GspMem>() >> GSP_PAGE_SHIFT;

And you can remove `GspCmdq::nr_ptes` altogether.

With this, `GspArgumentsCached::new` can take a reference to the
`GspCmdq` to initialize from, grab its DMA handle, and initialize
everything else using the constants we defined above. We remove a bunch
of inconsistently-named imports from `gsp.rs`, and replace
firmware-dependent incantations to initialize our GSP arguments with a
single constructor call that tells exactly what it does in a single
line.

I think there are two aspects to the bindings - one which was addressed in
the comments for patch 5 is how to abstract them. The other is that the way we
currently generate them results in some  ugly name.

Given we want to generate these from our internal IDL eventually I would favour
fixing this naming ugliness by touching up the currently generated bindings. So
maybe I will do that for the next revision.

I will admit that was a bit of a hack.

Thanks! That is a useful observation for cleaning these up.

So this would also live in `fw.rs`? What I'm really concerned about is that if
we're not allowed access the C bindings outside of `fw.rs` then everything ends
up in `fw.rs`, and worse still `fw.rs` basically ends up importing everything as
well, tightly coupling everything into one big blob.

So ugly naming aside, I really can't see the advantage of this. It would seem
much cleaner to have to have gsp.rs import the C bindings it needs and tie that
togeather with the other higher level Gsp abstractions.

Although I agree with the overall sentiment - the code could be better here -
we could still create GspArgumentsCached::new() as you suggest just there's no
reason for it to be in `fw.rs`. The type aliases I had were just to hide the
ugly names really.

It's not about fixing the name of the generated C bindings, it's about not
leaking firmware specific structures into core code of the driver.

Please hide it in an abstraction that can deal with differences between firmware
version internally; see also [1].

Please also make sure to use the DmaAddress type instead of a raw u64 for DMA
addresses.

You can (and probably should) extend the module structure, i.e. add a
sub-directory ./gsp/fw/ and structure things accordingly.

I don't disagree. Please see my comments on patch 5, which deals more with the

This is what I thought the gsp directory was for, providing abstractions for the
Gsp. IMHO another layer of abstraction below this seems unnecessary, although
this is discussed in a bit more detail at the end of my comments on patch 5.

[PATCH v2 07/10] gpu: nova-core: gsp: Create RM registry and sysinfo commands

[Alistair Popple]

Add the RM registry and system information commands that enable the host
driver to configure GSP firmware parameters during initialization.

The RM registry is serialized into a packed format and sent via the
command queue. For now only two parameters which are required to boot
GSP are hardcoded. In future a kernel module parameter will be added to
enable other parameters to be added.

Also add the system info command, which provides required hardware
information to the GSP. These commands use the GSP command queue
infrastructure to issue commands to the GSP which is read during GSP
boot.

Probably should add a comment saying that although GSP-RM technically supports strings as values, we
don't intend to use that feature.  You just have REGISTRY_TABLE_ENTRY_TYPE_DWORD defined without any
explanation that there are other entry types.  

Maybe REGISTRY_TABLE_ENTRY_TYPE_DWORD should be an enum instead of a const.

You might want to add another field to RegistryEntry that adds documentation for each of these
files?  Nouveau documents them as comments.

Also, you're missing RMDevidCheckIgnore.  See

I think at some point we will want to extend this to support setting arbitrary registry values.

> Maybe REGISTRY_TABLE_ENTRY_TYPE_DWORD should be an enum instead of a const.

Yeah, although in this case it comes from the bindings so it's not really
possible until we can get some richer generation of them.

Yeah, good idea. In general the comments in this series are probably lacking so
will update for v3.

Yes, I added that feature to Nouveau, so I was planning on adding it to Nova if someone else
didn't get around to it.

[PATCH v2 08/10] nova-core: falcon: Add support to check if RISC-V is active

[Alistair Popple]

From: Joel Fernandes <joelagnelf@nvidia.com>

Add definition for RISCV_CPUCTL register and use it in a new falcon API
to check if the RISC-V core of a Falcon is active. It is required by
the sequencer to know if the GSP's RISCV processor is active.

This should be part of the HAL, because a different register is used on Turing.

You can leave it here if you want, and I'll move into a HAL when I post Turing support.  Your
choice.

Yes, it's similar to the DMA mask patch in that regard (Hopper/Blackwell needs
a different value).

In the spirit of the current "soul" of patchsets, which is "get
GPU firmware running on Ampere/Ada"), I think let's defer the HALs
until the first patchset that needs them.

Fair enough, but maybe this patchset should make it clear that it uses Ampere-specific
registers?  All of the patches have descriptions that imply that they support all GSP-capable
GPUs.

Agreed, lets fix that when we add/need the HALs as that's outside the scope of
what this patch series is trying to achieve.

Silly nit: can we please delete the above comment? (And if you'd
like to keep the note, then it can go in the commit log instead.)

I might be the one who actually added that comment at some point,
but have since realized the error of my ways. haha

Much of Nova is informed by Nouveau or Open RM or both, but I'd
like to leave it out of the code proper unless it's really somehow
key to have it there (and I can't think of any cases yet).


thanks,

You should add something like this:

        if mbox0 != 0 {
            dev_err!(pdev.as_ref(), "Booter-load failed with error {:#x}\n", mbox0);
            return Err(ENODEV);
        }

Booter returns an error code in MBOX0, and it's very handy to display that code if it's non-zero.
