[PATCH v8 17/25] gpu: nova-core: mm: Add Virtual Memory Manager

From: Joel Fernandes <joelagnelf@nvidia.com>
Date: 2026-02-24 22:54:09
Also in: amd-gfx, dri-devel, intel-gfx, intel-xe, linux-doc, lkml, nouveau, rust-for-linux
Subsystem: core driver for nvidia gpus [rust], drm drivers, drm drivers and common infrastructure [rust], the rest · Maintainers: Danilo Krummrich, Alexandre Courbot, David Airlie, Simona Vetter, Alice Ryhl, Linus Torvalds

Add the Virtual Memory Manager (VMM) infrastructure for GPU address
space management. Each Vmm instance manages a single address space
identified by its Page Directory Base (PDB) address, used for Channel,
BAR1 and BAR2 mappings.

Mapping APIs and virtual address range tracking are added in later
commits.
