Subject: [PATCH v4] PCI: endpoint: Add prefetch BAR support

From: Li Chen <[email protected]>

Before this commit, epf cannot set BAR to be prefetchable.
Prefetchable BAR can also help epf device to use bridge's
prefetch memory window.

Changes in v2:
Remove Gerrit Change-id
Changes in v3:
capitalize "BAR" in the subject and commit log as suggested by Bjorn.
Changes in v4:
This patch context doesn't change but resend with my Zoho mail account in that previous
company mail will contain un-removeable proprietary messages.
Add "From:" to the first line of the message body.

This patch looks useful. Can we revisit this and get it merged?

Hello Shradha,

This patch is two years old, and no longer applies to pci-next.


However:
Usually, fixed hardware requirements are specified in
struct pci_epc_features (more specifically struct pci_epc_bar_desc).

A requested BAR configuration by an EPF is specified in struct epf_bar.


I don't think that Prefetch is a fixed hardware requirement,
so I do not think that we should put it in struct pci_epc_features.

It seems more like something that an endpoint function driver can
chose to request (or not to request), just like MEM_TYPE_64.

From the PCIe base spec:
"Generally only 64-bit BARs are good candidates, since only Legacy
Endpoints are permitted to set the Prefetchable bit in 32-bit BARs,
and most scalable platforms map all 32-bit Memory BARs into
non-prefetchable Memory Space regardless of the Prefetchable bit value."

"For a PCI Express Endpoint, 64-bit addressing must be supported for all BARs
that have the Prefetchable bit Set. 32-bit addressing is permitted for all BARs
that do not have the Prefetchable bit Set."

"Any device that has a range that behaves like normal memory should mark the
range as prefetchable. A linear frame buffer in a graphics device is an example
of a range that should be marked prefetchable."

We are not a legacy endpoint, so we should never set Prefetch for 32-bit BARs.
For 64-bit BARs, we should always set it, if the EPF-core allocated the memory
(regular memory) for that BAR.


Thus, I think the best solution is to do:

return space;


Now when I look at it, the whole "if (epc_features->bar[i].only_64bit)"
should move to pci_epf_alloc_space() IMO, so that not all EPF drivers need to
duplicate this code.


Kind regards,
Niklas
