Open-IOV vGPU-IO: host-side GSP emulation for unmodified NVIDIA guest drivers https://git.vgpu.io/open-iov.git/atom?h=gr-forwarding 2026-10-04T20:19:31+00:00 2026-10-04T20:19:31+00:00 Arthur Hanson Rasmusson arthur@vgpu.io 2026-10-04T20:19:31+00:00 urn:sha1:aa3520f252182aaf64ea0b8856a3ac5e4466ce0e The no-claim emulation path now runs a stock CUDA program end to end: device properties, cudaMalloc, a GPU-authored string kernel read back byte-for-byte, two 4 MB host-to-device copies, a 1 M-element vectorAdd executed on the physical GPU through the host bridge, and the device-to-host copy-back verified element by element. Three consecutive supervised cycles report MAIL + VADD bad=0 checksum=392344090.500000 + STATUS OK with identical input/output hashes. Two data-path correctness fixes make the transfers sound: - Once-only op execution per GPFIFO entry. The pump replays recently consumed ring entries when translation batches are injected so missed releases can land; re-executing a CE copy is not idempotent because its source is a client staging buffer that may have been refilled. Slots now record their raw entry words and a replayed entry matching that identity suppresses operations while still processing releases. - Per-page translation of virtual operands. svc_copy resolved only the first page of a VA range and walked the PA linearly; client staging ranges are frequently split (observed 195 + 61 pages), so the tail of alternating chunks was read from unrelated memory. Multi-page copies now re-resolve each 4 KB page through the trusted resolver. Also carries the earlier uncommitted emulation fixes that got the client to the launch (QMD address-window gate, counter registration persistence, 512 MiB emulated FB, bridge slot hygiene) and bounded diagnostics (sema-bigop, sema-bigcopy, bridge-in/out hashes, daemon INCHECK/OUTCHECK/dumps). 2026-10-03T18:05:38+00:00 Arthur Hanson Rasmusson arthur@vgpu.io 2026-10-03T18:05:38+00:00 urn:sha1:cc79b478843f0230fe6aa8ecd822de7ba71c891e - kernel: gsp_cuda_bridge (QMD launch capture, debugfs job/out/done, param+output resolution cached from inline writes), sema drain fixes (never hold/starve a channel), GR ring autopin + counter autoreg, per-page push reads, counter-derive gate; module builds clean - tools/cuda-bridge: CUDA driver-API daemon executing mail/vadd kernels on the physical GPU, CUBB2/CBD2 v2 protocol, layout check + self-tests - tools/guest-diag + tools/cuda-ab: scanner/pin fixes, victory push-only mode - debug/risc-v-gsp-rm-vm: Phase S simulator wave (GSP device model, boot ladder, triage/re-demo harnesses, docs 30-41), GPGPU-sim scaffolding - STATE-CURRENT/docs updates
