![]() If the GSC was loaded, the only way to stop it during the driver unload flow is to do a driver-FLR. The driver-initiated FLR is not the same as PCI config space FLR in that it doesn't reset the SGUnit and doesn't modify the PCI config space. Thus, it doesn't require a re-enumeration of the PCI BARs. However, the driver-FLR does cause a memory wipe of graphics memory on all discrete GPU platforms or a wipe limited to stolen memory on the integrated GPU platforms. We perform the FLR as the last action before releasing the MMIO bar, so that we don't have to care about the consequences of the reset on the unload flow. v2: rename FLR function, add comment to explain FLR impact (Rodrigo), better explain why GSC needs FLR (Alan) Signed-off-by: Daniele Ceraolo Spurio <daniele.ceraolospurio@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Alan Previn <alan.previn.teres.alexis@intel.com> Cc: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20221208200521.2928378-5-daniele.ceraolospurio@intel.com |

README
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
