10  * DOC: GuC MMIO based communication
11  *
12  * The MMIO based communication between Host and GuC relies on special
13  * hardware registers which format could be defined by the software
14  * (so called scratch registers).
15  *
16  * Each MMIO based message, both Host to GuC (H2G) and GuC to Host (G2H)
17  * messages, which maximum length depends on number of available scratch
18  * registers, is directly written into those scratch registers.
19  *
20  * For Gen9+, there are 16 software scratch registers 0xC180-0xC1B8,
21  * but no H2G command takes more than 4 parameters and the GuC firmware
22  * itself uses an 4-element array to store the H2G message.
23  *
24  * For Gen11+, there are additional 4 registers 0x190240-0x19024C, which
25  * are, regardless on lower count, preferred over legacy ones.
26  *
27  * The MMIO based communication is mainly used during driver initialization
28  * phase to setup the `CTB based communication`_ that will be used afterwards.
