IVC is an inter-processor communication protocol that uses shared memory
to exchange data between processors. The BPMP driver makes use of this
to communicate with the Boot and Power Management Processor (BPMP) and
uses an additional hardware synchronization primitive from the HSP block
to signal availability of new data (doorbell).
Firmware running on the BPMP implements a number of services such as the
control of clocks and resets within the system, or the ability to ungate
or gate power partitions.
