2025-05-13Documentation/gpu: Disambiguate SPI termBagas Sanjaya
Documentation/userspace-api/media/glossary.rst:170: WARNING: duplicate term description of SPI, other instance in gpu/amdgpu/amdgpu-glossary That's because SPI of amdgpu (Shader Processor Input) shares the same global glossary term as SPI of media subsystem (which is Serial Peripheral Interface Bus). Disambiguate the former from the latter to fix the warning. Note that adding context qualifiers in the term is strictly necessary in order to make Sphinx happy.

2025-02-25Documentation/gpu: Add acronyms for some firmware componentsRodrigo Siqueira
Users can check the file "/sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/amdgpu_firmware_info" to get information on the firmware loaded in the system. This file has multiple acronyms that are not documented in the glossary. This commit introduces some missing acronyms to the AMD glossary documentation. The meaning of each acronym in this commit was extracted from code documentation available in the following files: - drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/gfx_v7_0.c - drivers/gpu/drm/amd/include/amd_shared.h Changes since v1: - Expand acronym meanings based on Alex Deucher suggestions.

2021-12-13Documentation/gpu: Add amdgpu and dc glossaryRodrigo Siqueira
In the DC driver, we have multiple acronyms that are not obvious most of the time; the same idea is valid for amdgpu. This commit introduces a DC and amdgpu glossary in order to make it easier to navigate through our driver. Changes since V3: - Yann: Add new acronyms to amdgpu glossary - Daniel: Add link between dc and amdgpu glossary Changes since V2: - Add MMHUB Changes since V1: - Yann: Divide glossary based on driver context. - Alex: Make terms more consistent and update CPLIB - Add new acronyms to the glossary Reviewed-by: Yann Dirson <ydirson@free.fr> Reviewed-by: Harry Wentland <harry.wentland@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Siqueira <Rodrigo.Siqueira@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com>
