Adds open-iov/debug/risc-v-gsp-rm-vm: a GDB-free instrumentation stack that boots uproc/GSP firmware in qemu-system-riscv64 and provides Frida-like hooks, breakpoints, watchpoints, memory dumps, structure decoding, snapshot diffs, recorded sessions, declarative probes, a plugin API and a Ghidra symbol/hit bridge.
Verified: 25 tests green (including a live QEMU smoke test); the demo uproc boots with correct hook/leave/watch/schema/snapshot/fault evidence; the optional TCG trace plugin builds and recorded 15M trace lines in 3 s; the TU104 570.144 fwimage probe reports its first exception (load access fault at firmware vaddr 0x4009014 reading 0x2000000000000A00).
Documentation: lean tool docs under debug/risc-v-gsp-rm-vm/docs/00-10, a new docs/05-operations/03-risc-v-gsp-rm-vm.md debugging document, and '# TOOL IN DEVELOPMENT - NOT READY YET!' markers in docs/README.md, the onboarding tooling table and the debugging workflows doc.
Vendors qemu-plugin.h from QEMU v8.2.2 (GPL-2.0-or-later), with its license header intact, so the optional TCG plugin builds without a QEMU source tree.

physical-backend guest-wiring design
- STATE-CURRENT snapshot 2026-10-01 21:05: the host RM-client ladder now
allocates VAS+PDB+TSG+channel and executes a real 4 KiB VA-mode CE copy
(semaphore released, dst==src) on the physical engine; next is wiring the
live session into the guest-facing mdev/vfio path.
- docs/03-architecture/11-physical-backend-guest-wiring.md: phased design
(P0-P6) for bridging the physical backend into the guest-facing emulation,
with the seam table, lifecycle changes and static-config flow.
- docs/README.md: reading order updated for the new document; execution
status refreshed.

- remove the superseded flat state page; current state lives in
STATE-CURRENT.md and the docs tree
- update the historical-material note in docs/README and the STATE-CURRENT
header/see-also references

- new 03-architecture/09-full-system-picture.md: end-state map, GSP boot,
guest init, RPC lifecycle, memory model, work path (bridge and end state),
scheduling, isolation levels, KVM/mdev/VFIO, BAR/engine/channel/GMMU,
portability, performance model, implementation/test status
- new 03-architecture/10-interaction-and-scheduling.md: interaction inventory,
control-plane call path, msgq element lifecycle, channel pump, concurrency,
timing budgets, multi-tenant scheduling, teardown ordering, versioning
- README: mermaid system diagram replaces the ASCII block; reading list
extended and renumbered
- component docs: GSP boot sequence, mdev/VFIO lifecycle, end-state
interaction sequence; STATE-CURRENT links

- add docs/03-architecture/08-physical-gpu-integration.md: interfaces that
exist, mechanism options A-E, chosen path (module-owned GPU driven through
its real GSP firmware), sharing policy, decision record
- update 06-host-module-and-hybrid-model, 02-practical-challenges, system
overview, known-knowns, docs/README reading order and CUDA-side docs to
match
- correct stale engine-topology/COPY14 blocker claims across the tree
- add STATE-CURRENT.md as the dated public status snapshot

* Merge and remove the pre-reboot flat documents, preserving their still-useful
material in the structured tree: debugging workflows and the EPT-livelock
case study (05-operations/02), performance microbenchmarks and A/B
methodology (05-operations/01), the version-upgrade runbook
(05-operations/02 section 4, with corrected host/guest framing), kernel-code
pitfalls (07-developers) and the OpenRM build/load order
(03-architecture/06 section 7). The remaining legacy files were verified
redundant and removed.
* docs/README now records where each migrated topic lives.
* Portability: the config YAML files are called out as design targets that no
code reads yet, with what adding support actually requires today.
* Getting started: the OpenRM step is marked optional (native vGPU-management
workflows only; the emulated path uses the distro driver).
* tools docs: rmtool/rmtop marked as planned, pointing at the implemented
tools/rmq subset.
* wiki: new CUDA-Userspace-Driver deep-dive page (public-safe, links the
canonical userspace/cuda analysis) and index update.
* scripts/check-docs-links.py plus a CI step so relative links cannot rot.
* STATE.md references to removed documents repointed.

* Status now matches the live state: guest driver probe and nvidia-smi work;
cuInit/device queries work; cuCtxCreate returns 999 because the emulated
engine list is missing the async copy engine (COPY14). The userspace
libcuda segfault is recorded as solved, with its mechanism (an RM
allocation reply must echo request parameters; zeroing them corrupted the
caller's saved frame pointer).
* Correct the emulation claims: only a subset of RM controls are
special-cased; the rest return a success reply with zeroed parameters whose
consumed fields are still being corrected; allocation replies are coherent
but no server-side object model exists.
* Add the eight-point emulation checklist and reply-fidelity ladder as
explicit gates, documented in userspace/cuda and linked from the
architecture, implementation and operations docs.
* Fix operational errors: build/test commands, module load order, mdev type
names, LFS references, debugfs claims, in-repo firmware claims, CI claims,
portability matrix (guest status, config layout, userspace driver facts).
* Mark historical material: one superseded banner per legacy document with a
pointer to its replacement; STATE.md marked as a 2026-09-21 snapshot.
* Wiki: fix the index, add status banners and in-place factual corrections
(msgq transport vs legacy mailbox, BAR definitions, error statuses,
migration, glossary), and note the archived 2023 imports.

Open-IOV virtualizes NVIDIA GPUs so that unmodified guest drivers run with
real GPU functionality - CUDA first, 3D and video to follow - on unmodified
hosts, without a proprietary vGPU license and without patching any driver,
firmware or hypervisor.
Core principle: emulate the interface, pass through the work.
kernel/ open-iov-vfio.ko - host VFIO mdev driver: virtual GPU device
(PCI config space, BAR shadows, MSI-X), GSP boot emulation,
GSP-RM message-queue/RPC emulation, memory model (GPU-VA to
guest-PA discovery) and the semaphore-completion service that
advances guest UVM progress.
userspace/ libiov.so management API and examples.
tools/ guest diagnostics, firmware analysis wrappers, RM probes.
scripts/ stack manager, VM harness, build/load/test automation.
config/ hardware/version profiles (the portability surface).
docs/ documentation tree - start at docs/README.md.
wiki/ long-form firmware and protocol deep dives.
Status: initialization works end to end for a stock 570.144 Linux guest on
Turing (TU104): driver probe, nvidia-smi, the full GSP-RM control battery,
object creation and the early CUDA/UVM start-up path. GPU work forwarding -
the step that makes CUDA kernels execute on real hardware - is the active
work item; see docs/04-implementation/01-known-knowns-and-unknowns.md.
License: BSD-3-Clause for the project; GPL-2.0 for kernel modules that link
GPL-only kernel interfaces. See LICENSE and docs/09-reference/legal-and-licensing.md.
