The GRU is a hardware resource located in the system chipset. The GRU
contains memory that can be mmapped into the user address space.
This memory is used to communicate with the GRU to perform functions
such as load/store, scatter/gather, bcopy, AMOs, etc. The GRU is
directly accessed by user instructions using user virtual addresses.
GRU instructions (ex., bcopy) use user virtual addresses for operands.
If you are not running on a SGI UV system, say N.
