The latest GuC firmware includes a number of interface changes that require driver updates to match. * Starting from Gen11, the ID to be provided to GuC needs to contain the engine class in bits [0..2] and the instance in bits [3..6]. NOTE: this patch breaks pointer dereferences in some existing GuC functions that use the guc_id to dereference arrays but these functions are not used for now as we have GuC submission disabled and we will update these functions in follow up patch which requires new IDs. * The new GuC requires the additional data structure (ADS) and associated 'private_data' pointer to be setup. This is basically a scratch area of memory that the GuC owns. The size is read from the CSS header. * There is now a physical to logical engine mapping table in the ADS which needs to be configured in order for the firmware to load. For now, the table is initialised with a 1 to 1 mapping. * GUC_CTL_CTXINFO has been removed from the initialization params. * reg_state_buffer is maintained internally by the GuC as part of the private data. * The ADS layout has changed significantly. This patch updates the shared structure and also adds better documentation of the layout. * While i915 does not use GuC doorbells, the firmware now requires that some initialisation is done. * The number of engine classes and instances supported in the ADS has been increased.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
