[PATCH 0/5] NVKM GSP RPC message handling policy

Ben reported an issue that the patch [1] breaks the suspend/resume.

After digging for a while, I noticed that this problem had been there
before introducing that patch, but not exposed because r535_gsp_rpc_push()
doesn't repsect the caller's requirement when handling the large RPC
command: It won't wait for the reply even the caller requires. (Small
RPCs are fine.)

After that patch series is introduced, r535_gsp_rpc_push() really waits
for the reply and receives the entire GSP message, which is required
by the large vGPU RPC command.

There are currently two GSP RPC message handling policy:

- a. dont care. discard the message before returning to the caller.
- b. receive the entire message. wait and receive the entire message before
  returning to the caller.

On the path of suspend/resume, there is a large GSP command
NV_VGPU_MSG_FUNCTION_ALLOC_MEMORY, which returns only a GSP RPC message
header to tell the driver that the request is handled. The policy in the
driver is to receive the entrie message, which ends up with a timeout
and error when r535_gsp_rpc_push() tries to receive the message. That
breaks the suspend/resume path.

This series factors out the current GSP RPC message handling policy and
introduces a new policy for NV_VGPU_MSG_FUNCTION_ALLOC_MEMORY and a
kernel doc to illustrate the policies.

With this patchset, the problem can't be reproduced and suspend/resume
works on my L40.

[PATCH 1/5] drm/nouveau/nvkm: factor out r535_gsp_rpc_handle_reply()

There can be multiple cases of handling the GSP RPC messages, which are
the reply of GSP RPC commands according to the requirement of the
callers and the nature of the GSP RPC commands.

To support all cases, first, centralize the handling of the reply in a
single function. Factor out r535_gsp_rpc_handle_reply().

No functional change is intended for small GSP RPC commands. For large GSP
commands, the caller decides the policy of how to handle the returned GSP
RPC message.

[PATCH 2/5] drm/nouveau/nvkm: factor out the current RPC command reply policies

There can be multiple cases of handling the GSP RPC messages, which are
the reply of GSP RPC commands according to the requirement of the callers
and the nature of the GSP RPC commands.

The current supported reply policies are "callers don't care" or
"receive
the entire message" according to the requirement of the caller. For
introducing a new policy, factor out the current RPC command reply
polices.

Factor out NVKM_GSP_RPC_REPLY_RECV as "receive the entire message". If
none is specified, the default is "callers don't care".

No functional change is intended.

[PATCH 3/5] drm/nouveau/nvkm: introduce new GSP reply policy NVKM_GSP_RPC_REPLY_POLL

There can be multiple cases of handling the GSP RPC messages, which
are the reply of GSP RPC commands according to the requirement of the
callers and the nature of the GSP RPC commands.

Some GSP RPC command needs a new reply policy: "caller don't care about
the message content but want to make sure a reply is received". To
support this case, a new reply policy is introduced.

Introduce new reply policy NVKM_GSP_RPC_REPLY_POLL, which waits for the
returned GSP message but discards it for the caller.

No functional change is intended.

[PATCH 4/5] drm/nouveau/nvkm: use the new policy for NV_VGPU_MSG_FUNCTION_ALLOC_MEMORY

NV_VGPU_MSG_FUNCTION_ALLOC_MEMORY is a large GSP RPC command. The actual
required policy is NVKM_GSP_RPC_REPLY_POLL. This can be observed from the
dump of the GSP message queue. After the large GSP RPC command is issued,
GSP will write only an empty RPC header in the queue as the reply.

Without this change, the policy "receiving the entire message" is used
for NV_VGPU_MSG_FUNCTION_ALLOC_MEMORY. This causes the timeout of receiving
the returned GSP message in the suspend/resume path:
