This is the first chunk of the new VMM code that provides the structures needed to describe a GPU virtual address-space layout, as well as common interfaces to handle VMM creation, and connecting instances to a VMM. The constructor now allocates the PD itself, rather than having the user handle that manually. This won't/can't be used until after all backends have been ported to these interfaces, so a little bit of memory will be wasted on Fermi and newer for a couple of commits in the series. Compatibility has been hacked into the old code to allow each GPU backend to be ported individually. Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
