NVIDIA is building systems which allows the CPU to coherently access
GPU memory. This GPU device memory can be added and managed by the
kernel memory manager. The patch holds the required changes in QEMU
to expose this memory to the device assigned VMs.

The GPU device memory region is exposed as device BAR1 and QEMU mmaps to
it. It then adds new proximity domains to represent the memory in the
VM ACPI SRAT. This allows the device memory to be added as separate NUMA
nodes inside the VM. The proximity domains (PXM) are passed to the VM
using ACPI DSD properties to help VM kernel modules add the memory.

Current Linux cannot create NUMA nodes on the fly, hence creating enough
NUMA nodes in ACPI is needed so that they are available at the VM bootup
time. The physical platform firwmare provides 8 NUMA nodes, which QEMU
is emulating here.

A new vfio-pci variant driver is added to manage the device memory and
report as a BAR. Ongoing review of the corresponding kernel side changes
along with the new vfio-pci variant driver.

Applied over v8.0.2.

  qemu: add GPU memory information as object

  qemu: patch guest DSDT for GPU memory
  qemu: adjust queried bar size to power-of-2

Please use "vfio:" subject prefix when modifying the hw/vfio files.
If you are not sure and want to know what is the current practice,
simply run :
    
   git log --pretty=oneline  <files>

Also, to know who to send the series, please use :

   ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl <patches>

Thanks,

C.
