The C7 NPU has a full MMU and should be able to work with any buffer Linux allocates from any address, even non-contiguous buffers too. Communication should already happen over the existing RPMSG channels without needing extra buffers. And space for intermediate results should be provided dynamically by the drivers (I believe that would match how GPUs without dedicated memory handle getting intermediate buffers space from system memory these days, but do correct me if I'm wrong about that one).

types: reuse common phys_vec type instead of DMABUF open‑coded variant

by Leon Romanovsky

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro(a)nvidia.com> After commit fcf463b92a08 ("types: move phys_vec definition to common header"), we can use the shared phys_vec type instead of the DMABUF‑specific dma_buf_phys_vec, which duplicated the same structure and semantics.

Good question. For almost all cases we don't want this, but once more the scheduler is special. In the scheduler we have two fences in one, the scheduled one and the finished one. So here it technically makes sense to have this construct to be defensive. But on the other hand it has no practical value because it still doesn't allow us to unload the scheduler module. We would need a much wider rework for being able to do that. So maybe I should just really drop this patch or at least keep it back until we had time to figure out what the next steps are. > As far as I have learned from you and our discussions, that would be a > very bombastic violation of the sacred "dma-fence-rules". Well using the inline fence is "only" a strong recommendation. It's not as heavy as the signaling rules because when you mess up those you can easily kill the whole system. > I believe it's definitely worth sacrificing some bytes so that those > two fences get fully decoupled. Who will have it on their radar that > they are special? Think about future reworks. This doesn't even save any bytes, my thinking was more that this is the more defensive approach should anybody use the spinlock pointer from the scheduler fence to do some locking. > Besides that, no objections from my side.
