+/**
+ * DOC: AMDGPU XGMI Support
+ *
+ * XGMI is a high speed interconnect that joins multiple GPU cards
+ * into a homogeneous memory space that is organized by a collective
+ * hive ID and individual node IDs, both of which are 64-bit numbers.
+ *
+ * The file xgmi_device_id contains the unique per GPU device ID and
+ * is stored in the /sys/class/drm/card${cardno}/device/ directory.
+ *
+ * Inside the device directory a sub-directory 'xgmi_hive_info' is
+ * created which contains the hive ID and the list of nodes.
+ *
+ * The hive ID is stored in:
+ * /sys/class/drm/card${cardno}/device/xgmi_hive_info/xgmi_hive_id
+ *
+ * The node information is stored in numbered directories:
+ * /sys/class/drm/card${cardno}/device/xgmi_hive_info/node${nodeno}/xgmi_device_id
+ *
+ * Each device has their own xgmi_hive_info direction with a mirror
+ * set of node sub-directories.
+ *
+ * The XGMI memory space is built by contiguously adding the power of
+ * two padded VRAM space from each node to each other.
