[PATCH 0/7] gpu: nova-core: gsp: add continuation record support
From: Eliot Courtney
Date: Thu Feb 12 2026 - 01:29:41 EST
GSP commands over 16 pages need to be sent using "continuation records"
which essentially means splitting the payload over multiple commands.
This series adds a command type `ContinuationRecord` which just writes
its header and whatever payload it is given. It also adds a type
`WrappingCommand` which supports splitting a large RPC into smaller
ones.
The send pathway uses `WrappingCommand` to send all commands, but if
the command fits into 16 pages, it still writes directly into the
command queue. If it is larger than 16 pages and needs continuation
records, it writes into a staging buffer, so there is one copy.
This patch series uses EIO for mis-sized commands to be consistent with
the rest of the code.
Patch 6 introduces a single helper send_continuation_record. This is
because the compiler can't properly infer the types without this.
