* kernel: GR context-promote bisection modes 4-17 and server-managed-ctxbuf ↵Arthur Hanson Rasmusson10 days
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | registry variant; complete vgsp rename; docs/tooling refresh - gsp_phys_booter: GR promote bisection modes 4-17 (two-phase zero-field VA, batched entries, hVirtMemory, bare VA, KMD SKIP_CTXBUFFER_ALLOC channel, old-interface GPU_INITIALIZE_CTX, FBMEM context buffer, UVM-faithful PA-only, PATCH/PM auxiliary promotes, server-managed no-promote path); PATCH/PM geometry queries and buffers; pre-boot SET_REGISTRY profile selection - gsp_phys_gpu: gsp_phys_rmcall_gr_promote clamp 0..17 and gsp_phys_srv_ctxbuf parameter; registry image variant with RMSetClientRMAllocatedCtxBuffer=0 - vgsp rename across kernel, scripts, tools and docs (module vgsp.ko, /sys/kernel/debug/vgsp/, vgsp-<subsystem>: log prefixes) - risc-v-gsp-rm-debugger user-facing rename and docs/CI refresh; guest-diag tool updates; README/SBOM/install/Makefile sync Live status: CE ladder and P6 guest-copy forwarding green; GR engine context commit still open (all promote shapes accepted or cleanly refused; the channel stays CTXNOTVALID) - see Handoff-vGPU-IO.md Addendum 21 (local).
* docs: record physical-GPU integration mechanism and refresh project statusArthur Hanson Rasmusson13 days
| | | | | | | | | | | - 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
* userspace/cuda: add CUDA userspace driver analysis, tooling and name mapsArthur Hanson Rasmusson2026-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the analysis of the NVIDIA CUDA userspace driver used by Open-IOV VMs: * docs/01-08: architecture (layers, object model, threads, sync, memory, channels, launch), build and execution model, the driver/kernel/GPU interface contract, virtualization approaches, the 570.144 decompilation map with the corrected libcuda crash path and the current engine-topology blocker, tooling, and a version-upgrade playbook. * tools/: version-agnostic toolchain - stdlib ELF/interface toolkit (exports, unwind-table function map, wrapper resolution, version delta, crash address decode), callgraph walker, corpus annotator, and Ghidra analysis/decompilation/name-map scripts with resumable parallel drivers. * 570.144/annotations/: our name map (exports + resolved wrappers + verified internals) and subsystem index, tracked so naming work accumulates. * READ-ME-FIRST.md: reading guide with the fast lookup recipes. The full decompiled corpus and annotated corpus stay untracked (vendor- derived, gitignored under the version run/ tree).
* docs: public analysis describes components and behaviour onlyArthur Hanson Rasmusson2026-09-23
| | | | | | Move supporting detail to the adjacent local analysis notes (gitignored; referenced by name from the public analysis) and ignore those notes tree-wide. No behaviour or code changes.
* userspace/cuda: host golden-reference descriptor dump for the crash pathArthur Hanson Rasmusson2026-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | The host libcuda (570.211.01) has the identical engine-registration helper instruction sequence (byte-pattern matched, host vaddr 0x454470 vs guest 0x453ef0). scripts/host_gdb_descriptor.sh runs cdt on the host under gdb and prints the per-engine 6-dword registration record and the dispatch hook target. Host registers a copy engine {3, 0xd, 4, 0xc5b5, 0x3e6, 3} and cuCtxCreate succeeds; the guest registers GR {1, 1, 0, 0xc5c0, 0, 0} and crashes - so the divergence is in the engine records the driver builds from the emulated GSP static info engine table.
* userspace/cuda: engine-list path summarised in the public analysisArthur Hanson Rasmusson2026-09-23
| | | | | | | | Records that libcuda builds an async copy-engine list from per-engine records (engine kind, runlist, class) received with the device information, which is derived from the GSP static info engine table this project emulates, and that the crashing per-engine helper operates on those records. The adjacent local analysis notes (userspace/cuda/570.144/LOCAL-ANALYSIS.md) carry supporting detail.
* userspace/cuda: analysis note for the cuCtxCreate segfault (gdb trace)Arthur Hanson Rasmusson2026-09-23
Documents the exact crash: cuInit/device enumeration now succeed; cuCtxCreate faults in an engine-check/report path at libcuda+0x453f90 with rbp=0. Register trace shows rbp valid at the helper and at the dispatch hook's leave, but 0 immediately after the hook returns; the hook and the dispatch table entries are all valid libcuda code. Adds the ioctl sequence observed before the crash and lists what is still unanalysed.
