kernel: Present physical TU104 to guest + emulate GSP boot (FWSEC/Booter) + VBIOS serving
Guest driver probe fixes (unmodified 570.144 open driver on physical path):
- kernel/main.c: add show_description to the mdev driver. Userspace mdev
management tools parse 'framebuffer=<n>M' from every mdev type's
description sysfs file before creating an mdev; the missing file made
such tools fail to create the vGPU. Also fix create_mdev.sh for the real
type dir name pci-nvidia-vgpu-* (mdev core names dirs
dev_driver_string(parent)-<sysfs_name>; the parent registers before
nvidia.ko binds so dev_driver_string == 'pci').
- kernel/bar_emulation.c: seed BAR0 shadow so guest sees a REAL, PHYSICAL,
non-virtual TU104 (user directive: no PV/VF vGPU paths, unmodified driver):
* PMC_BOOT_0/1/42 = physical TU104 values captured from host hardware
(0x164000a1 / 0x0 / 0x164a1000). Without these, halmgrGetHalForGpu()
fails and probe aborts with 'does not include the required GSP'.
* Serve a valid VBIOS at the PROM window (BAR0+0x300000) loaded from
/lib/firmware/tu104_vbios.bin (dump of host TU104 ROM). Guest's
kgspExtractVbiosFromRom_TU102 needs it for the mandatory FWSEC ucode
(kgspGetFrtsSize is hardwired to 1MB on Turing).
* Pre-set GSP secure-boot (GFW) completion state: PGC6 PLM (0x118128)=1,
GFW_BOOT progress (0x118234)=0xFF, GSP falcon CPUCTL HALTED (0x110100).
The driver's post-FLR GFW wait only *waits* (never kicks), so the
pre-set state satisfies it immediately.
- kernel/gsp_emulation.c/h: physical GSP boot emulation.
* Falcon boot-watch: poll GSP falcon/PGC6/WPR2/scratch registers and log
changes (guest BAR0 is mmap-based, otherwise invisible to host).
* gsp_emu_poll_boot: STARTCPU auto-complete state machine. Guest kicks
FWSEC then Booter Load via GSP falcon CPUCTL; detect each kick and
complete the stage (HALTED + FRTS err NONE + WPR2 + mailbox +
RISCV-active) so the guest believes its ucodes ran.
Diagnosis that led here (documented in Handoff-vGPU-IO.md):
- Open nvidia.ko can never be an SR-IOV VF vGPU guest: os_is_grid_supported()
is a stub returning FALSE in the open build (disassembled). PV path also
rejected per user directive. Only the physical path with a fully emulated
local GSP boot remains.
