I don't want to kick a dead horse here, but aren't the architecture details
already in boot42
for Turing? I thought the whole point was that we don't need boot0 any more,
and only Nouveau
has to worry about boot0 vs boot42.
Yes, but someone can still plug in a pre-Turing GPU and try to
boot up with nova-core.ko on the system.
So it's important to avoid getting into trouble in that case.
