[PATCH v2 6/6] drm/amdgpu: dump job ibs in the devcoredump

From: Pierre-Eric Pelloux-Prayer

Date: Thu Feb 26 2026 - 04:40:32 EST


Now that we have a worker thread, we can try to access the
IBs of the job. The process is:
* get the VM from the PASID
* get the BO from its VA and the VM
* map the BO for CPU access
* copy everything, then add it to the dump
Each step can fail so we have to be cautious.
These operations can be slow so when amdgpu_devcoredump_format
is called only to determine the size of the buffer we skip all
of them and assume they will succeed.
