habanalabs/gaudi: add debugfs to DMA from the device
When trying to debug program, the user often needs to
dump large parts of the device's DRAM, which can reach to tens of GBs.
Because reading from the device's internal memory through the PCI BAR
is extremely slow, the debug can take hours.
Instead, we can provide the user to copy data through one of the DMA
engines. This will make the operation much faster.
Currently, only GAUDI is supported.
In GAUDI, we need to find a PCI DMA engine that is IDLE and set the
DMA as secured to be able to bypass our MMU as we currently don't
map the temporary buffer to the MMU.
Example bash one-line to dump entire HBM to file (~2 minutes):
for (( i=0x0; i < 0x800000000; i+=0x8000000 )); do \
printf '0x%x\n' $i | sudo tee /sys/kernel/debug/habanalabs/hl0/addr ; \
echo 0x8000000 | sudo tee /sys/kernel/debug/habanalabs/hl0/dma_size ; \
sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/habanalabs/hl0/data_dma >> hbm.txt ; done
