I don't understand why char is not appropriate for a filename.
Would like to understand why __u8 is correct to use here vs. char.

ioctl VK_IOCTL_LOAD_IMAGE passes in type of image to load and filename.
These are the default names used if the images are autoloaded by the driver.
But if userspace app wishes to load (or reload) the default images then
it needs to know the name of the file to pass in ioctl.
I guess I could change the API at this point to lookup the default
filename if NULL filename passed into ioctl.

Haven't had any issues.

Don't care about 32-bit user space for this driver.
I don't think there isn't even enough memory in such systems for the
number of streams of video buffers needed for transcoding.
This driver is only used in high end 64-bit x86 servers.
But, VK_IOCTL_ACCESS_BAR can go away entirely if standard user space
approach already exists as you imply.

This follows how pci_endpoint_test reads and writes BARS via ioctl.
It also abstracts the accesses all into the device node being opened.
I am not familiar with userspace PCI accesses. Would this be through
some sys entries?

I don't like the bitfields either - structure inherited from firmware code.
Will work on getting these removed.

Works fine. Also in uapi/linux/rtc.h.

There are actually 2 linux user spaces that use this header.
One is the x86 host with the bcm-vk PCI driver.
The x86 host user space could use them to check the firmware status and
find out what state VK is in.
The other user space is a coprocessor inside the VK SOC.
The app running in user space needs to know the state of the FWSTS in
order to proceed.
It includes this header in its user space app (even though it doesn't
user the linux driver, it needs access to the same FWSTS register
directly).
