Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker. Top-posting for once,
to make this easily accessible to everyone.

What happened to below patch? It looks like there was no progress since
ten days now. Or did I miss something?

Reminder, the patch is fixing a regression, hence it would be good if
this could be fixed rather sooner than later.

Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)

This sounds like "ATS/PRI" is a solution to a problem, but we haven't
stated the problem yet.

Nit: "Add a flag ..." and "Apply this opt-in ..." (below).

What is the underlying failure here? "Black screen" is useful but we
should say *why* that happens, e.g., transactions went the wrong place
or whatever.

I guess PCI_PASID_XLATED_REQ_ONLY is something only the driver knows,
right? We can't deduce from architected config space that the device
will produce PASID prefixes for every Memory Request, can we?

Yes

No, we can't. PASID cap only indicates that the device is capable of
using PASID prefix, not a mandatory requirement on every memory
request.

Similar case is PRI. Having PRI enabled only means the device is
capable of handling I/O page faults, not the indicator that it can
100% tolerate fault in every memory access. That is the main reason
why vfio/iommufd can't simply skip pinning guest memory when
seeing PRI enabled (well, though PRI is not supported yet). It has to
be opted-in via a driver specific way e.g. a vfio variant driver.

All above make sense to me. I post my new commit message at the end of

No, we can't. That's the reason why we need a flag here.

[ Below is an updated commit message. Hope it can describe things
clearly.]

PCI: Add translated request only flag for pci_enable_pasid()

The PCIe fabric routes Memory Requests based on the TLP address, ignoring
the PASID. In order to ensure system integrity, commit 201007ef707a ("PCI:
Enable PASID only when ACS RR & UF enabled on upstream path") requires
some ACS features being supported on device's upstream path when enabling
PCI/PASID.

However, above change causes the Linux kernel boots to black screen on a
system with below graphic device:

00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] Wani [Radeon R5/R6/R7 Graphics] (rev ca)
(prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
DeviceName: ATI EG BROADWAY
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 8332

The kernel trace looks like below:

The AMD iommu driver allocates a new domain (called v2 domain) for the
amdgpu device and enables its PCI PASID/ATS/PRI before attaching the
v2 domain to it. The failure of pci_enable_pasid() due to lack of ACS
causes the domain attaching device to fail. The amdgpu device is unable
to DMA normally, resulting in a black screen of the system.

However, this device is special as it relies on ATS/PRI to resolve the
PASID + addr pair before a memory request is made into a routeable TLB
address through the translation agent. Those resolved addresses are then
cached on the device instead of in the IOMMU TLB and the device always
uses translated memory request for PASID.

ACS is not necessary for the devices that always use translated memory
request for PASID. But this is device specific and only device driver
knows this. We can't deduce this from architected config space.

Add a flag for pci_enable_pasid(), with which the device drivers could
opt-in the fact that device always uses translated memory requests for
PASID hence the ACS is not a necessity. Apply this opt-in for above AMD
graphic device.

At present, it is a common practice to enable/disable PCI PASID in the
iommu drivers. Considering that the device driver knows more about the
specific device, it's better to move pci_enable_pasid() into the specific
device drivers.

Sorry, I'm still confused. PCI_PASID_XLATED_REQ_ONLY is a
device-specific property, and you want to opt-in AMD graphics devices.
Where's the AMD graphics-specific change? The current patch does
this:

pdev_pri_ats_enable
pci_enable_pasid(pdev, 0, PCI_PASID_XLATED_REQ_ONLY)

which looks like it does it for *all* devices below an AMD IOMMU,
without any device or driver input.

PCIe r6.0, sec 6.20.1:

A Function is not permitted to generate Requests using Translated
Addresses and a PASID unless both PASID Enable and Translated
Requests with PASID Enable are Set.

You want AMD graphics devices to do DMA with translated addresses and
PASID, right? pci_enable_pasid() sets PASID Enable
(PCI_PASID_CTRL_ENABLE), but I don't see where "Translated Requests
with PASID Enable" is set. We don't even have a #define for it.

I would think we should check "Translated Requests with PASID
Supported" before setting "Translated Requests with PASID Enable",
too?

We need a PCIe concept-level description of the issue first, i.e., in
terms of DMA, PASID, ACS, etc. Then we can mention the AMD GPU issue
as an instance.

The stack trace doesn't seem like it shows a failure, so I'm not sure
it's useful this time. If it is, we can at least strip out the
irrelevant pieces.

AMD GPU has a private interface to AMD IOMMU to support PASID support
that only it uses.

When AMD's IOMMU driver is cleaned up to use the common PASID API this
will have to be moved into the GPU driver.

But we are not there yet..

This seems to be an ECN for PCIe 5.x:

https://members.pcisig.com/wg/PCI-SIG/document/14929

What I read from this ECN is that,

With this ECN, translated memory requests for PASIDs are not allowed to
carry a PASID prefix if "Translated Requests with PASID Enabled" is not
set. It does not mean whether the device can generate translated memory
requests for PASID, but whether the memory request can carry a PASID
prefix.

How about below description?

PCIe endpoints can use ATS to request DMA remapping hardware to
translate an IOVA to its mapped physical address. If the translation is
missing or the permissions are insufficient, the PRI is used to trigger
an I/O page fault. The IOMMU driver will fill the mapping with desired
permissions and return the translated address to the device.

The translated address is specified by the IOMMU driver. The IOMMU
driver ensures that the address is a DMA buffer address instead of any
P2P address in the PCI fabric. Therefore, any translated memory request
will eventually be routed to IOMMU regardless of whether there is ACS
control in the up-streaming path.

AMD GPU is one of those devices. Furthermore, it always uses translated
memory requests for PASID.

The code reads,

2052 if (iommu_feature(iommu, FEATURE_GT) &&
2053 iommu_feature(iommu, FEATURE_PPR)) {
2054 iommu->is_iommu_v2 = true;

So, how about

What is it that makes this a private interface? It seems like we will
end up enabling PASID on any device below an AMD v2 IOMMU.

I do see the DRM amdgpu_amdkfd_device_init() path that ends up at
domain_enable_v2(). Maybe that's it?

But amd_iommu_domain_alloc() also leads to domain_enable_v2(), and
that's pretty generic, so it looks like we set PD_IOMMUV2_MASK
whenever the IOMMU supports it.

And it seems like we call pci_enable_pasid() for all endpoints below
a v2 IOMMU. Of course, if the endpoint doesn't have a PASID cap,
pci_enable_pasid() fails (and pdev_pri_ats_enable() probably splats
useless warnings when we try to disable PRI and PASID which haven't
been enabled).

I guess I'm trying to convince myself that no harm in enabling PASID
for any device below an AMD v2 IOMMU. But I don't think a device is
*required* to use translated addresses with PASID, and if it uses
untranslated addresses with PASID, don't we need ACS to avoid
misrouting?

Looking up 201007ef707a to see what ensuring system integrity means,
it prevents Memory Requests with PASID, which should always be routed
to the RC, from being mistakenly routed as peer-to-peer requests.

Thanks, this is exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for. But my
understanding of ATS/PRI/PASID is weak, so I'm still working through
this. Tell me when I say something wrong below...

In PCIe spec language, I think you're saying that a PCIe Function may
contain an ATC. If the ATC Capability Enable bit is set, the Function
can issue Translation Requests.

The TA (aka IOMMU) will respond with a Translation Completion. If the
Completion is a CplD, it contains the translated address and the
Function can store the entry in its ATC. I assume the I/O page fault
case corresponds to a Cpl (with no data) meaning that the TA could not
translate the address.

If the TA doesn't have a mapping with the desired permissions, and the
Function's Page Request Capability Enable bit is set, it may issue a
Page Request Message. It's up to the TA/IOMMU to make this message
visible to the OS, which can make the page resident, create an IOMMU
mapping, and enable a PRG Response Message. After the Function
receives the PRG Response Message, it would issue another Translation
Request.

A Memory Request with an address that is not a P2P address, i.e., it
is not contained in any bridge aperture, will *always* be routed
toward the RC, won't it? Isn't that the case regardless of whether
the address is translated or untranslated, and even regardless of ACS?

IIUC, ACS basically causes peer-to-peer requests to be routed upstream
instead of directly to the peer.

OK, reading this again, I realize that I just restated exactly what
you had already written, sorry about that.

> AMD GPU is one of those devices.

I guess you mean the AMD GPU has ATS, PRI, and PASID Capabilities?
And furthermore, that the GPU *always* uses Translated addresses with
PASID?

So I guess what's going on here is that if:

- A device only uses PASID with Translated addresses, and
- those Translated addresses are never P2P addresses, then
- those transactions will always be routed to the RC.

And this applies even if there is no ACS or ACS doesn't support
PCI_ACS_RR and PCI_ACS_UF.

The black screen happens because ... ?

What can we include in the commit log to help people find this fix? I

Where is this special domain allocated? I think the above tests for
*IOMMU* features (I assume "GTSup: Guest translations supported" and
"PPRSup: Peripheral page request support" based on the AMD IOMMU
spec). It doesn't test that this is a GPU.

This change doesn't feel safe for all possible devices that have a
PASID Capability because we don't know whether they *always* use
Translated addresses with PASID TLPs.

A driver should not be using EXPORT_SYMBOL at all, this is all
superseded by the core code that has now been created, but this
has not been cleaned up.

So the troublesome PASID bit is here:

drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_iommu.c: err = amd_iommu_bind_pasid(dev->adev->pdev, p->pasid, p->lead_thread);
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_iommu.c: err = amd_iommu_bind_pasid(kfd->adev->pdev, p->pasid,

And the logic AMD iommu uses to call pci_enable_pasid() is in the
wrong place, it should be in drm/amd someplace not in the iommu
drivers.

This is all more stuff to fix

Yes, it is all sort of messy still.

AMD and ARM have a requirement that the RID page table format be in a
certain way to be able to enable the PASID decoded in the iommu

So the iommu drivers are trying to guess what page table format to use
based on the PCI caps, and wrongly turning on PASID mode at the same
time.

PASID enabling via config space doesn't actually do much - it is
attaching a PASID at the iommu and attempting to operate the device
with a PASID that is the key item.

So right now, the only thing in the kernel which can do that is amdkfd
because of the private interface. AMD says amdkfd HW always issues ATS
with a PASID and never a MemRd/Wr, which is why it works at all.

I'm not versed in the spec lingo, but the GPU issues MemRd/Wrs with
the translated bit set and no PASID header - which is the correct form
for an address that was translated by ATS.

To get to that it issues ATS requests, and only the ATS related
requests will carry the PASID.

ATS related requests always route to the root port, which is why it is
functionally equivalent to ACS RR/UF in these cases.

Translated requests always route where they are supposed to go, even
with P2P and things.

AMD GPU driver bugs blow up if it cannot setup PASID.

IIRC it is a buggy error unwind handling in the AMD GPU driver.

Its coming from below path :
- During system boot IOMMU allocates default domain
- AMD IOMMU v2 module (iommu_v2) created another domain and tried to attach
devices to new domain.
- In device attachment path (amd_iommu_attach_device()) it first detaches
device from current domain and tries to attach device to new domain. Here device
attachment failed as PASID enable check failed.
- We didn't recover from above failure (I have proposed fix for this [1]).
- So device to domain attachment is not in consistent state.
- Device tried to do DMA and hit IO fault. Above NULL pointer derefence is
coming from that path as dev to domain setup is not proper.

They are different. The translated addresses are approved by the Linux
kernel. But untranslated addresses are not. Malicious or buggy userspace
applications could program the device to DMA to addresses locating in
the P2P aperture.

Yes, exactly. I will update above paragraph like below

The PCIe fabric routes Memory Requests based on the TLP address, ignoring
the PASID. In order to prevent Memory Requests with PASID, which should
always be routed to the RC, from being mistakenly routed as peer-to-peer
requests, commit 201007ef707a ("PCI: Enable PASID only when ACS RR & UF
enabled on upstream path") requires some ACS features being supported on
device's upstream path when enabling PCI/PASID.

From the discussion, my understanding is that the IOMMU is a GPU
dedicated IOMMU. The translated-request-only feature is enumerated
through the IOMMU feature bits. However, I am not familiar with AMD
architecture. AMD guys may have a better explanation.

FWIW there is a capability bit and enable bit in the PASID cap/control
registers that says whether a device can/should add a PASID to a
translated request or not. I think the intent is that a host can
sanity check AT requests to make sure the device isn't making them
up. To do that it needs the PASID. Not sure any hosts do this yet
though ;)

Not worth much, but I thought it always sent the PASID so dug out spec
to check (I was wrong as it is both optional and configurable).

This is why we discussed moving the pci_enable_pasid() into drivers

My assumption that "you want AMD graphics devices to do DMA with
translated addresses and PASID" was wrong.

Per Jason [1], it sounds like the AMD GPU generates Translation
Requests (sec 10.2.2) with a PASID. The GPU will cache the translated
address from the Translation Completion in its local ATC, and will do
DMA (MemRd/Wr) with that translated address but *without* PASID
prefixes.

That makes sense because (PASID, IOVA) maps to a translated address,
e.g., a a CPU physical address, and the GPU can DMA to that address
directly without needing the PASID.

Hi Bjorn and Jason,

According to the discussion so far, I refined the commit message like
below. How does it look like?

PCI: Add translated request only flag for pci_enable_pasid()

The PCIe fabric routes Memory Requests based on the TLP address, ignoring
the PASID. In order to prevent Memory Requests for PASID, which should
always be routed to the RC, from being mistakenly routed as peer-to-peer
requests, commit 201007ef707a ("PCI: Enable PASID only when ACS RR & UF
enabled on upstream path") requires some ACS features being supported on
device's upstream path when enabling PCI/PASID.

However, above change causes the Linux kernel boots to black screen on a
system with below graphic device:

00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] Wani [Radeon R5/R6/R7 Graphics] (rev ca)
(prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
DeviceName: ATI EG BROADWAY
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 8332

The AMD iommu driver allocates a special domain for above device and
enables its PCI PASID/ATS/PRI before attaching the domain to it. The
failure of pci_enable_pasid() due to lack of ACS causes the domain
to fail to be attached to the device. The GPU device is unable to DMA
normally, resulting in a black screen of the system.

The PCIe spec defines Address Translation Service in its chapter 10.
A PCIe Function may contain an ATC. If the ATC Capability Enable bit
is set, the Function can issue Translation Requests. The TA (aka IOMMU)
will respond with a Translation Completion. If the Completion is a CplD,
it contains the translated address and the Function can store the entry
in its ATC. If the TA doesn't have a mapping with the desired permissions,
and the Function's Page Request Capability Enable bit is set, it may
issue a Page Request Message. It's up to the TA to make this message
visible to the OS, which can make the page resident, create an IOMMU
mapping, and respond with a PRG Response Message. After the Function
receives the PRG Response Message, it would issue another Translation
Request. The Function can then obtain a translated address and store the
entry in its ATC.

The AMD integrated GPU together with its dedicated IOMMU implements above
functionality. It generates Translation Requests (sec 10.2.2) with a PASID
and caches the translated address from the Translation Completion in its
local ATC, and will do DMA (MemRd/Wr) with that translated address without
PASID prefixes. This capability (using translated address for PASID memory
requests) could be detected by software from AMD IOMMU feature bits (GTSup:
Guest translations supported" and PPRSup: Peripheral page request support).

ACS is unnecessary for the devices that only use translated memory request
for PASID. All translated addresses are granted by the Linux kernel which
ensures that such addresses will never be in a P2P address, i.e., it's not
contained in any bridge aperture, will *always* be routed toward the RC.

Add a flag for pci_enable_pasid(), with which the drivers could opt-in
the fact that device always uses translated memory requests for PASID
hence the ACS is not a necessity. Apply this opt-in for above AMD graphic
device.

At present, it is a common practice to enable/disable PCI PASID in the
iommu drivers. Considering that the device driver knows more about the
specific device, it is recommended to move pci_enable_pasid() into the
specific device drivers.

Re 201007ef707a ("PCI: Enable PASID only when ACS RR & UF enabled on
upstream path"), does that commit actually *fix* anything? I wonder
whether we could revert it completely.

The intent of 201007ef707a is to use ACS to prevent misrouting, which
would happen if a TLP contained an address that *looked* like a PCI
bus address, i.e., it was inside a host bridge aperture, but was
*intended* to reach an IOMMU or main memory directly.

201007ef707a only affects pci_enable_pasid(), so I think we already
avoid this misrouting by restricting DMA address allocation for both
non-IOMMU scenarios and non-PASID IOMMU scenarios.

So what about PASID mappings, e.g., consider a mapping of (Requester
ID, PASID, Untranslated Address) -> Translated Address? If either the
Untranslated Address or the Translated Address looks like a PCI bus
address, a Memory Request or Translation Request could be misrouted.

Does that actually happen? I assume it does not happen for Translated
Addresses because that's basically the non-IOMMU case, and we don't
need ACS to prevent misrouting there.

Do IOMMUs allocate (PASID, Untranslated Addresses) that look like PCI
bus addresses?

There is no restriction on DMA address allocation with PASID.

The typical PASID use case is to point the PASID at the CPU page table
and then all VA's are fair game by userspace. There is no carve out
like the DMA API has to protect from bus address confusion.

The PCI rules are a bit complicated:
- A simple MemRd/Wr with a PASID will be routed according to the
address. This can be mis-routed
- A ATS translation request with a PASID is always routed to the host
bridge
- A MemRd/Wr with Translated set and no PASID is always routed to the
correct destination, even if that is not the host bridge

> Do IOMMUs allocate (PASID, Untranslated Addresses) that look like PCI
> bus addresses?

Yes, because it is mapped to a mm_struct userspace can use any mmap to
access any valid address as an IOVA and thus PASID tagged translation
must never become confused with bus addresses.

Further, and worse, the common use model for PASID SVA is for
userspace to directly submit IOVA to the device for operation. If
userspace can submit a hostile IOVA and cause DMA to reach something
that is not the host bridge then system security is completely
wrecked.

So, as an API in Linux we felt it was best to only enable PASID if
PASID is secure and truely isolated, otherwise leave PASID off. The
use cases for insecure PASID seem small.

I think you're saying that for (Requester ID, PASID, Untranslated
Address), the Untranslated Address is not restricted at all, and it
may look like a PCI bus address.

From a PCIe point of view, I think these cases are equivalent because
a PASID prefix doesn't affect routing (sec 2.2.10.4). A Translation
Request includes an Untranslated Address, and if that happens to look
like a PCI bus address, I think it will be mis-routed just like a
MemRd/Wr would be.

I don't think Address Type 10b ("Translated") affects routing. A
MemRd/Wr should be routed to a PCI peer if the Translated Address is
inside a host bridge aperture, or to the host bridge otherwise.

If PCI bus addresses are carved out of the Translated Address arena,
the MemRd/Wr TLPs should be fine, but I think the Translation Requests
that include Untranslated Addresses are still a problem.

The patch under discussion is intended to fix a v6.2-rc1 regression
added by 201007ef707a ("PCI: Enable PASID only when ACS RR & UF
enabled on upstream path").

Are we on track to fix this before v6.2? I don't have a clear
understanding of how we know this change is safe and it only affects
AMD GPU and not other devices below the same IOMMU.
