[PATCH v5 5/6] gpu: nova-core: set RMSetSriovMode for vGPU

From: Zhi Wang

Date: Wed Jul 22 2026 - 03:41:22 EST


The GSP registry setup needs to advertise SR-IOV mode when nova-core boots
GSP for an enabled vGPU configuration. Without the registry entry, GSP-RM
is not told to initialize in the mode required by NVIDIA vGPU.

Append RMSetSriovMode to the SetRegistry command when the vGPU state
detected before GSP boot is enabled. Keep the existing registry entries
unchanged for non-vGPU boots.
