Host methods exist to do at least some of what we need, but we are not currently pushing replay/cancels through a channel like UVM does as it's not clear whether it's necessary in our case (UVM also updates PTEs with the GPU). UVM also pushes a software method for fault cancels on Pascal, seemingly because the host methods don't appear to be sufficient. If/when we want to push the replay/cancel on the GPU, we can re-purpose the cancellation code here to implement that swmthd. Keep it simple for now, until we figure out exactly what we need here.

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 Restructured Text 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.
