[PATCH v2 5/5] drm: nova: Use nova-core to read VRAM_BAR_SIZE parameter
From: Alistair Popple
Date: Thu Jul 09 2026 - 05:09:37 EST
Currently nova-drm reads the VRAM BAR size directly from the PCIe device
which requires trying to cast the parent device into a PCIe device. This
obviously requires the parent device to actually be a PCIe bus device.
Whilst that is true today it may not always be the case, and there
is no reason to make this assumption now that NovaCoreApi can hold a
reference to the bound PCIe device.
So convert nova-drm to using nova-core to obtain the VRAM_BAR_SIZE
parameter.
