gpu: nova-core: move lifetime to `Bar0`

2026-06-03T20:10:51+00:00

Currently Nova code uses `&'a Bar0` a lot. This is `&'a Mmio`, where `Mmio` represents an owned MMIO region; this type only exists as a target for `Deref` so `Bar` and `IoMem` can share code and should be avoided to be named directly. The upcoming I/O projection series would make `Io` trait much simpler to implement, and thus the owned MMIO type would be removed in favour of direct `Io` implementation on `Bar` and `IoMem`. Add lifetime parameter to `Bar0<'a>` and change it to be alias of `&'a pci::Bar<'a, ..>`. This also prepares Nova core so that when I/O projection series land, this could be changed to using a MMIO view type directly which avoids double indirection.

gpu: nova-core: set DMA mask width based on GPU architecture

2026-06-02T13:33:15+00:00

Replace the hardcoded 47-bit DMA mask with a GPU HAL method that provides the correct value for the architecture. Set the DMA mask in Gpu::new(). Gpu owns all DMA allocations for the device, so no concurrent allocations can exist while the constructor is still running.

gpu: nova-core: unregister sysmem flush page from Drop

2026-05-29T00:08:03+00:00

Now that SysmemFlush can borrow the Bar via HRT lifetime, store a &'bound Bar0 reference and implement Drop to automatically unregister the sysmem flush page. This removes the need for manual unregister() calls and the Gpu::unbind() method.

gpu: nova-core: use lifetime for Bar

2026-05-29T00:07:58+00:00

Take advantage of the lifetime-parameterized pci::Bar<'bound> to hold the BAR mapping directly in NovaCore<'bound>, and pass a borrowed reference to Gpu<'bound>. This eliminates the Arc> indirection, removes runtime revocation checks for BAR access, and simplifies Gpu::unbind().

rust: auxiliary: generalize Registration over ForLt

2026-05-27T14:27:28+00:00

Generalize Registration to Registration and Device::registration_data() to return Pin<&F::Of<'_>>. The stored 'static lifetime is shortened to the borrow lifetime of &self via ForLt::cast_ref; ForLt's covariance guarantee makes this sound.

gpu: nova-core: separate driver type from driver data

2026-05-27T14:24:48+00:00

Introduce NovaCoreDriver as the driver type implementing pci::Driver, keeping NovaCore as the per-device data type. This prepares for making NovaCore lifetime-parameterized once auxiliary::Registration requires a lifetime for the binding scope.

rust: pci: make Bar lifetime-parameterized

2026-05-27T14:24:23+00:00

Convert pci::Bar to pci::Bar<'a, SIZE>, storing &'a Device to tie the BAR mapping lifetime to the device. iomap_region_sized() now returns Result> directly instead of impl PinInit>, Error>. Since the lifetime ties the mapping to the device's bound state, callers no longer need Devres for the common case where the Bar lives in the driver's private data. Add Bar::into_devres() to consume the bar and register it as a device-managed resource, returning Devres>. The lifetime is erased to 'static because Devres guarantees the bar does not actually outlive the device -- access is revoked on unbind.

rust: pci: make Driver trait lifetime-parameterized

2026-05-27T14:23:10+00:00

Add a 'bound lifetime to the associated Data, changing type Data to type Data<'bound>. This allows the driver's bus device private data to capture the device / driver bound lifetime; device resources can be stored directly by reference rather than requiring Devres. The probe() and unbind() callbacks thus gain a 'bound lifetime parameter on the methods themselves; avoiding a global lifetime on the trait impl. Existing drivers set type Data<'bound> = Self, preserving the current behavior.

rust: driver: decouple driver private data from driver type

2026-05-27T14:22:41+00:00

Add a type Data<'bound> associated type to all bus driver traits, decoupling the driver's bus device private data type from the driver struct itself. In the context of adding a 'bound lifetime, making this an associated type has the advantage that it allows us to avoid a driver trait global lifetime and it avoids the need for ForLt for bus device private data; both of which make the subsequent implementation by buses much simpler. All existing drivers and doc examples set type Data = Self to preserve the current behavior.
