An absence of critical technical documentation has historically slowed growth and adoption of developer ecosystems for GPU virtualization.

This CC-BY-4.0 licensed content can either be used with attribution, or used as inspiration for new documentation, created by GPU vendors for public commercial distribution as developer documentation.

Where possible, this documentation will clearly label dates and versions of observed-but-not-guaranteed behaviour vs. vendor-documented stable interfaces/behaviour with guarantees of forward or backward compatibility.

GSP Error Codes

Historical document — superseded. The GSP-specific POSIX-style names in this page are historical labels from early reverse engineering, not wire statuses. The emulation uses NVIDIA NV_STATUS values: NV_OK 0, NV_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED 0x56, NV_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER 0x3B. Canonical reference: ../docs/09-reference/glossary-and-faq.md and the kernel's NV_STATUS usage (../kernel/).

Debugging Error Codes

GSP Log Format

GSP_ERROR: rpc_type=0x0A seq=0x1234 err=0x31 (EBARPERM) vf=2 addr=0x7F000000

Common Error Scenarios

Scenario Error Code Resolution
VF writes to unmapped BAR 0x31 (EBARPERM) Check VF BAR config
Migration verify fails 0x54 (EMIGVERIFY) Check memory integrity
WPR timeout on page fault 0x44 (EWPRTIMEOUT) Increase timeout
RPC sequence mismatch 0x21 (EBADSEQ) Reset RPC client
Allocator exhausted 0x51 (ENOMEM) Free unused VF memory
BAR aperture too small 0x32 (EBARSIZE) Increase aperture

Error Injection (Testing)

// Inject errors for testing
#define GSP_INJECT_ERROR(rpc_type, err_code) \
    gsp_test_inject_error(gsp, rpc_type, err_code)

void gsp_test_inject_error(struct gsp_device *gsp, 
                           uint32_t rpc_type, int err_code) {
    struct inject_payload p = {
        .rpc_type = rpc_type,
        .error_code = err_code,
        .enable = 1,
    };
    gsp_rpc_send_sync(gsp->rpc, RPC_DEBUG, &p, sizeof(p), NULL, NULL);
