dGPU firmware flashing

=======================

IFWI
|
||
|
----
|
||
|
Flashing the dGPU integrated firmware image (IFWI) is supported by GPUs that
|
||
|
use the PSP to orchestrate the update (Navi3x or newer GPUs).
|
||
|
For supported GPUs, `amdgpu` will export a series of sysfs files that can be
|
||
|
used for the flash process.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The IFWI flash process is:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Ensure the IFWI image is intended for the dGPU on the system.
|
||
|
2. "Write" the IFWI image to the sysfs file `psp_vbflash`. This will stage the IFWI in memory.
|
||
|
3. "Read" from the `psp_vbflash` sysfs file to initiate the flash process.
|
||
|
4. Poll the `psp_vbflash_status` sysfs file to determine when the flash process completes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
USB-C PD F/W
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
On GPUs that support flashing an updated USB-C PD firmware image, the process
|
||
|
is done using the `usbc_pd_fw` sysfs file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Reading the file will provide the current firmware version.
|
||
|
* Writing the name of a firmware payload stored in `/lib/firmware/amdgpu` to the sysfs file will initiate the flash process.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The firmware payload stored in `/lib/firmware/amdgpu` can be named any name
|
||
|
as long as it doesn't conflict with other existing binaries that are used by
|
||
|
`amdgpu`.
