Communication with these services goes through IPC, as usual.
+
This is "nns::nvdrv::INvDrvServices".
 +
 
 +
Each service is used by:
 +
* "nvdrv": Applications.
 +
** [[#NvDrvPermission|Permission]] mask is [11.0.0+] 0xA83B ([1.0.0-2.3.0] 0x2B, [3.0.0+] 0xA82B).
 +
* "nvdrv:a": Applets.
 +
** [[#NvDrvPermission|Permission]] mask is [3.0.0+] 0x10A9 ([1.0.0-2.3.0] 0xA9).
 +
* "nvdrv:s": Sysmodules.
 +
** [[#NvDrvPermission|Permission]] mask is [3.0.0+] 0x439E ([1.0.0-2.3.0] 0x39E).
 +
* "nvdrv:t": Factory.
 +
** [[#NvDrvPermission|Permission]] mask is 0xFFFFFFFF.

== Open ==
 +
Takes a type-0x5 input buffer '''Path'''. Returns two output u32s '''FdOut''' and '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
== Ioctl ==
 +
Takes two input u32s '''Fd''' and '''Iocode''', a type-0x21 input buffer and a type-0x22 output buffer. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
The addr/size for send/recv buffers are only set when the associated direction bit is set in the ioctl cmd (addr/size = 0 otherwise).
 +
 
 +
== Close ==
 +
Takes an input u32 '''Fd'''. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
== Initialize ==
 +
Takes an input Process handle, an input TransferMemory handle and an input u32 '''Size'''. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
Webkit applet creates the TransferMemory with perm == 0 and size == 0x300000.
 +
 
 +
== QueryEvent ==
 +
Takes two input u32s '''Fd''' and '''EvtId'''. Returns an output u32 '''Err''' and an output Event handle.
 +
 
 +
QueryEvent is only supported on (and implemented differently on):
 +
* /dev/nvhost-gpu
 +
** EvtId=1: SmException_BptIntReport
 +
** EvtId=2: SmException_BptPauseReport
 +
** EvtId=3: ErrorNotifierEvent
 +
* /dev/nvhost-ctrl: Used to get events for syncpts.
 +
** EvtId=(event_slot | ((syncpt_id & 0xFFF) << 16) | (is_valid << 28)): New format used by [[#NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_SYNCPT_WAIT_EVENT|NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_SYNCPT_WAIT_EVENT]]/[[#NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_SYNCPT_WAIT_EVENT_EX|NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_SYNCPT_WAIT_EVENT_EX]].
 +
** EvtId=(event_slot | (syncpt_id << 4)): Old format used by [[#NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_SYNCPT_WAITEX|NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_SYNCPT_WAITEX]].
 +
* /dev/nvhost-ctrl-gpu
 +
** EvtId=1: Returns error_event_handle.
 +
** EvtId=2: Returns unknown event.
 +
* /dev/nvhost-dbg-gpu
 +
** Ignores EvtId.
 +
 
 +
== MapSharedMem ==
 +
Takes an input TransferMemory handle and two input u32s '''Fd''' and '''HMem'''. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
'''HMem''' is a [[#/dev/nvmap|/dev/nvmap]] memory handle.
 +
 
 +
== GetStatus ==
 +
Takes no input. Returns an output [[#NvDrvStatus]] and an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
== SetAruidWithoutCheck ==
 +
Takes an input u64 '''Aruid'''. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
'''Aruid''' must [[IPC_Marshalling|match]] the current [[Applet_Manager_services#AppletResourceUserId|AppletResourceUserId]].
 +
 
 +
== SetAruid ==
 +
Takes a PID-descriptor and an input [[Applet_Manager_services#AppletResourceUserId|AppletResourceUserId]]. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
== DumpStatus ==
 +
No input/output.
 +
 
 +
== InitializeDevtools ==
 +
Takes an input TransferMemory handle and an input u32 '''Size'''. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
== Ioctl2 ==
 +
Takes two input u32s '''Fd''' and '''Iocode''', two type-0x21 input buffers and a type-0x22 output buffer. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
== Ioctl3 ==
 +
Takes two input u32s '''Fd''' and '''Iocode''', a type-0x21 input buffer and two type-0x22 output buffers. Returns an output u32 '''Err'''.
 +
 
 +
== SetGraphicsFirmwareMemoryMarginEnabled ==
 +
Takes an input u64. No output.
 +
 
 +
This sets a boolean value based on the input u64 and the value of the "nv!nv_graphics_firmware_memory_margin" system configuration, but only for "nvdrv" (the other services default to false).
 +
 
 +
[3.0.0+] Official user-processes now use this at the end of nvdrv service init with value 0x1.
 +
 
 +
= nvmemp =
 +
This is "nv::MemoryProfiler::IMemoryProfiler".
 +
 
 +
/dev/nvhost-ctrl sends the ioctl NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_GET_CONFIG to check the config "nv!NV_MEMORY_PROFILER". If config_str returns "1", the application attempts to use nvmemp.

=== IOCtl commands ===
+
=== NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_SYNCPT_READ ===
Just like any standard build of the NVIDIA graphics' drivers, the nvdrv:a service operates mainly by processing requests and sending them to the kernel (not verified) through IOCtl commands.
+
Identical to Linux driver.
Note that these commands are generated with the following primitive (see Linux kernel):
+
 
  #define _IOC(inout, group, num, len) (inout | ((len & IOCPARM_MASK) << 16) | ((group) << 8) | (num))

Each fd opened to this device creates an address space. An address space is then later bound with a channel.
 +
 
 +
Once a nvgpu channel has been bound to an address space it cannot be unbound. There is no support for allowing an nvgpu channel to change from one address space to another (or from one to none).

 +
In some cases, a panic may occur. NV forces a crash by doing:
 +
(void *)0 = 0xCAFE;
 +
End result is that the system hangs with a white-screen.
 +
 +
When the gpfifo data in the gpu_va buffers specified by the submitted gpfifo entries is invalid(?), eventually the user-process will be force-terminated after using the submit-gpfifo ioctl. It's unknown how exactly this is done.
 +
 +
GPU rendering (GPFIFO) is only used by applets/Applications. All sysmodules doing any gfx-display uses software rendering. During system-boot, GPU GPFIFO is not used until the applets are launched.

Open

Takes a type-0x5 input buffer Path. Returns two output u32s FdOut and Err.

Ioctl

Takes two input u32s Fd and Iocode, a type-0x21 input buffer and a type-0x22 output buffer. Returns an output u32 Err.

The addr/size for send/recv buffers are only set when the associated direction bit is set in the ioctl cmd (addr/size = 0 otherwise).

Close

Takes an input u32 Fd. Returns an output u32 Err.

Initialize

Takes an input Process handle, an input TransferMemory handle and an input u32 Size. Returns an output u32 Err.

Webkit applet creates the TransferMemory with perm == 0 and size == 0x300000.

QueryEvent

Takes two input u32s Fd and EvtId. Returns an output u32 Err and an output Event handle.

QueryEvent is only supported on (and implemented differently on):

  • /dev/nvhost-gpu
    • EvtId=1: SmException_BptIntReport
    • EvtId=2: SmException_BptPauseReport
    • EvtId=3: ErrorNotifierEvent
  • /dev/nvhost-ctrl: Used to get events for syncpts.
  • /dev/nvhost-ctrl-gpu
    • EvtId=1: Returns error_event_handle.
    • EvtId=2: Returns unknown event.
  • /dev/nvhost-dbg-gpu
    • Ignores EvtId.

MapSharedMem

Takes an input TransferMemory handle and two input u32s Fd and HMem. Returns an output u32 Err.

HMem is a /dev/nvmap memory handle.

GetStatus

Takes no input. Returns an output #NvDrvStatus and an output u32 Err.

SetAruidWithoutCheck

Takes an input u64 Aruid. Returns an output u32 Err.

Aruid must match the current AppletResourceUserId.

SetAruid

Takes a PID-descriptor and an input AppletResourceUserId. Returns an output u32 Err.

DumpStatus

No input/output.

InitializeDevtools

Takes an input TransferMemory handle and an input u32 Size. Returns an output u32 Err.

Ioctl2

Takes two input u32s Fd and Iocode, two type-0x21 input buffers and a type-0x22 output buffer. Returns an output u32 Err.

Ioctl3

Takes two input u32s Fd and Iocode, a type-0x21 input buffer and two type-0x22 output buffers. Returns an output u32 Err.

SetGraphicsFirmwareMemoryMarginEnabled

Takes an input u64. No output.

This sets a boolean value based on the input u64 and the value of the "nv!nv_graphics_firmware_memory_margin" system configuration, but only for "nvdrv" (the other services default to false).

[3.0.0+] Official user-processes now use this at the end of nvdrv service init with value 0x1.

nvmemp

This is "nv::MemoryProfiler::IMemoryProfiler".

/dev/nvhost-ctrl sends the ioctl NVHOST_IOCTL_CTRL_GET_CONFIG to check the config "nv!NV_MEMORY_PROFILER". If config_str returns "1", the application attempts to use nvmemp.

Ioctls

The ioctl number is generated with the following primitive (see Linux kernel):

#define _IOC(inout, group, num, len) \
   (inout | ((len & IOCPARM_MASK) << 16) | ((group) << 8) | (num))

The following table contains all known ioctls.

/dev/nvhost-as-gpu

Each fd opened to this device creates an address space. An address space is then later bound with a channel.

Once a nvgpu channel has been bound to an address space it cannot be unbound. There is no support for allowing an nvgpu channel to change from one address space to another (or from one to none).

Notes

In some cases, a panic may occur. NV forces a crash by doing:

(void *)0 = 0xCAFE;

End result is that the system hangs with a white-screen.

When the gpfifo data in the gpu_va buffers specified by the submitted gpfifo entries is invalid(?), eventually the user-process will be force-terminated after using the submit-gpfifo ioctl. It's unknown how exactly this is done.

GPU rendering (GPFIFO) is only used by applets/Applications. All sysmodules doing any gfx-display uses software rendering. During system-boot, GPU GPFIFO is not used until the applets are launched.
