Pipes and Queues are two common vocabulary that pervades discussions around amdgpu core features. The definition and explanation of those components are spread around multiple places in the code, mailing list, and Gitlab, which sometimes leads to the wrong interpretation of these concepts. This commit attempts to centralize the definition and explanation of Pipe and Queue from amdgpu perspective in a kernel doc. Most of the information in this doc was derived from: - https://lore.kernel.org/amd-gfx/CADnq5_Pcz2x4aJzKbVrN3jsZhD6sTydtDw=6PaN4O3m4t+Grtg@mail.gmail.com/T/#m9a670b55ab20e0f7c46c80f802a0a4be255a719d - https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/11759 Reviewed-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Siqueira <siqueira@igalia.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com>
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 reStructuredText 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.
