Subject: [PATCH v5 0/6] Add OFS support for DFL driver

This is v5 patchset adding OFS (Open FPGA Stack) support for
DFL driver, based on v5.17-rc7. OFS is a collection of RTL
and open software providing interface to access the instantiated
RTL easily in FPGA. OFS leverages the DFL for the implementation
of the FPGA RTL design.

Patch 1, allows for ports without local bar space for "multiple VFs per
PR slot" model.
Patch 2, uses some lowest bits of flags to track the port status which
the AFU was connected to port device or not.
Patch 3, checks the number of released port match the number of
VFs or not in legacy model.
Patch 4, configures port access mode for afu connected with port.
Patch 5, handles dfl's starting with AFU.
Patch 6, adds architecture description about OFS support for DFL
in documentation.

Changelog v4 -> v5:
- fix documentation with Matthew and Randy's comment.

Changelog v3 -> v4:
- change "features" to "flags" in dfl_fpga_cdev to track the status
of port device.
- use dfl_fpga_cdev->flags to check if it need configure the port access
mode or not.
- add description about access the AFU on "multiple VFs per PR slot"
model.

Changelog v2 -> v3:
- no code change, just change the name from IOFS to OFS.

Changelog v1 -> v2:
- Introducing a new member "features" in dfl_fpga_cdev for feature
control.
- Adding new flag DFL_FEAT_PORT_CONNECTED_AFU for OFS legacy model.
- Updates the documentation for the access models about AFU in OFS.
- Drop the PCI PID patch and will send it later.

Subject: [PATCH v5 4/6] fpga: dfl: configure port access mode for afu connected with port

From: Tianfei zhang <[email protected]>

In legacy model, we should set AfuAccessCtrl (Bit 55) in PORTn_OFFSET
register to switch VF and PF for AFU. But in "multiple VFs per PR slot"
model, the PF/VF mux hardware unit will statically configure the funciton
mapping without set the AfuAccessCtrl by software. This patch check the
port status in dfl_fpga_cdev->flags before configure the port access mode.

In OFS legacy model, there is 1:1 mapping for Port device and VF,
so it need to check the number of released port match the number of

mapping for the Port device and VFs.

In OFS, it allows several PFs and VFs in static region or PR region.
Those PFs and VFs managed by DFL or a specific device, like virtio-net

Subject: [PATCH v5 1/6] fpga: dfl: Allow ports without local bar space.

From: Matthew Gerlach <[email protected]>

In OFS, each PR slot (AFU) has one port device which include Port
control, Port user clock control and Port errors. In legacy model,
the AFU MMIO space was connected with Port device, so from port
device point of view, there is a bar space associated with this
port device. But in "Multiple VFs per PR slot" model, the AFU MMIO
space was not connected with Port device. The BarID (3bits field) in
PORTn_OFFSET register indicates which PCI bar space associated with
this port device, the value 0b111 (FME_HDR_NO_PORT_BAR) means that
no PCI bar for this port device.

---
v3: add PCI bar number checking with PCI_STD_NUM_BARS.
v2: use FME_HDR_NO_PORT_BAR instead of PCI_STD_NUM_BARS.

+Open FPGA Stack
+=====================
+
+Open FPGA Stack (OFS) is a collection of RTL and open source software providing
+interfaces to access the instantiated RTL easily in an FPGA. OFS leverages the
+DFL for the implementation of the FPGA RTL design.
+
+OFS designs allow for the arrangement of software interfaces across multiple
+PCIe endpoints. Some of these interfaces may be PFs defined in the static region
+that connect to interfaces in an IP that is loaded via Partial Reconfiguration (PR).
+And some of these interfaces may be VFs defined in the PR region that can be
+reconfigured by the end-user. Furthermore, these PFs/VFs may use DFLs such that
+features may be discovered and accessed in user space (with the aid of a generic
+kernel driver like vfio-pci). The diagram below depicts an example design with two
+PFs and two VFs. In this example, it will export the management functions via PF0,
+PF1 will bind with virtio-net driver presenting itself as a network interface to
+the OS. The other functions, VF0 and VF1, leverage VFIO to export the MMIO space
+to an application or assign to a VM.

+As accelerators are specialized hardware, they are typically limited in the
+number installed in a given system. Many use cases require them to be shared
+across multiple software contexts or threads of software execution, either
+through partitioning of individual dedicated resources, or virtualization of
+shared resources. OFS provides several models to share the AFU resources via
+PR mechanism and hardware-based virtualization schemes.
+
+1. Legacy model.
+ With legacy model FPGA cards like Intel PAC N3000 or N5000,there is
+ a notion that the boundary between the AFU and the shell is also the unit of
+ PR for those FPGA platforms. This model can only able to handle a
+ single context, because it only has one PR engine, and one PR region which
+ has an associated Port device.
+2. Multiple VFs per PR slot.
+ In this model, available AFU resources may allow instantiation of many of VFs
+ which has a dedicated PCIe function with their own dedicated MMIO space, or
+ partition a region of MMIO space on a single PCIe function. Intel PAC N6000
+ card has implemented this model.
+ In this model, the AFU/PR slot was not connected to port device. For DFL's view,
+ the Next_AFU pointer in FIU feature header of port device points to NULL in this
+ model, so in AFU driver perspective, there are no AFU MMIO region managed by
+ AFU driver. On the other hand, each VF can start with an AFU feature header without
+ connected to a FIU Port feature header.
+
+In multiple VFs per PR slot model, the port device can still be accessed using
+ioctls API which expose by /dev/dfl-port.n device node, like port reset, get
+port info, whose APIs were mentioned in AFU section in this documentation. But
+it cannot access the AFU MMIO space via AFU ioctl APIs like DFL_FPGA_PORT_DMA_MAP
+because no AFU MMIO space managed in AFU driver. Users can access the AFU resource
+by creating VF devices via PCIe SRIOV interface, and then access the VF via VFIO
+driver or assign the VF to VM.
+
+In multiple VFs per PR slot model, the steps enable VFs are compatible with
+legacy mode which mentioned in "FPGA virtualization - PCIe SRIOV" section
+in this documentation.
+
+OFS provides the diversity for access the AFU resource to RTL developer.
+An IP designer may choose to add more than one PF for interfacing with IP
+on the FPGA and choose different model to access the AFU resource.
+
+There is one reference architecture design using the "Multiple VFs per PR slot"
+model for OFS as illustrated below. In this reference design, it exports the
+FPGA management functions via PF0. PF1 will bind with virtio-net driver
+presenting itself as a network interface to the OS. PF2 will bound to the
+vfio-pci driver allowing the user space software to discover and interface
+with the specific workload like diagnostic test. To access the AFU resource,
+it uses SR-IOV to partition workload interfaces across various VFs.
