docs suite + repo reorg
CRITICAL FIXES (guest driver bring-up):
- gsp_emulation.c: emulation engine bound to the WRONG BAR0 - it polled the
host physical BAR0 (bars[0].vaddr ioremap) for the doorbell and read RPCs
from a local dma_alloc_wc buffer, while the guest writes land in the
vzalloc'd bar0_shadow. The RPC path could never work; PBA writes even
corrupted the host GPU's physical BAR0+0x3000. gsp_emu_init now binds
exclusively to bar0_shadow (doorbell/mailbox/PBA aliases;
shared_mem_dma==0 marks the alias so cleanup never dma_free's it).
- main.c SET_IRQS: DATA_EVENTFD eventfds were DISCARDED ('TODO' + kfree) -
the guest never received MSI-X completions. Full wiring now:
eventfd_ctx_fdget per vector, fd -1 clears, dev_close releases refs.
gsp_emu_inject_completion_interrupt looks up vgpu->irqs[0].trigger LIVE
(init-time copy was permanently NULL since QEMU wires after gsp_emu_init).
- gsp_rpc_client.c: BAR_TRAP/MIGRATE in emulation mode called
gsp_rpc_submit_raw which rings the SAME doorbell the thread polls -
self-triggered RPC livelock + multi-second stalls. Now fail fast with
-ENOTSUPP + pr_warn_ratelimited (guest BAR access is direct MMIO).
MORE FIXES:
- main.c: nv_vgpu_config_write returned SIZE_MAX (while(count--) wrap) and
was dead code while the VFIO write handler did unfiltered byte copies
(guest could rewrite vendor ID/BARs). Return fixed; VFIO write handler
now routes through the per-register filter.
- kernel/Makefile: M=$(PWD) used the env var which is stale when invoked
via the top-level make (pointed at repo root -> kbuild silently built
NOTHING; explains every 'stale .ko' incident). Now M=$(CURDIR).
- Warnings sweep: header prototypes for mdev/type functions, format casts
in gsp_comm.c DRY-RUN logs, unused variable.
ROBUSTNESS (harness/tooling):
- vgpu_vm.py: run had no timeout (start could block forever);
guest_shell recv could block forever on a wedged guest. Both now bounded;
guest_shell pre-flights guest-ping and reports wedge diagnostics.
- stack_manager.sh: qemu/qemu-debug now launch via the vgpu_vm.py harness
(workflow rule: never raw QEMU).
REPO REORGANIZATION:
- driver/ (legacy guest-side gsp-vgpu.ko) moved to legacy-driver-guest/
(reference only, not built; README explains). 3 legacy un-buildable test
files moved to legacy-driver-guest/kernel-tests/. Top-level Makefile
cleaned of the dead DRIVER_DIR reference.
DOCUMENTATION SUITE (new):
- docs/GSP_EMULATION_ARCHITECTURE.md - emulator deep-dive: shadow BAR0
model, doorbell protocol, dispatch table, MSI-X path, lifecycle, memory-
model caveats
- docs/DEBUGGING.md - QEMU GDB stub workflow, serial console, QMP NMI,
failure taxonomy, full bring-up validation checklist, EPT-livelock case
study, version-matrix discipline
- docs/ONBOARDING.md - repo tour, coding standards (incl. virt_to_phys /
dma_addr_t / get-put rules), first build & test
- docs/VERSION_UPGRADE.md - end-to-end new-driver-version procedure
(firmware fetch, Ghidra analysis, configs, signatures, validation)
- docs/PERFORMANCE.md - bare-metal A/B methodology + targets
- README.md doc index; STATE.md refreshed; DEVELOPMENT_WORKFLOW.md corrected
(load order: open-iov-vfio BEFORE nvidia; stock-driver blacklist note)
