Hi Christopher,

Can you rebase this against v4.9-rc1? It no longer applies to my tree.

Note that this hardware is not spec-compliant since it doesn't support
sub-32 bit config writes. I just proposed a patch to warn about that
[1], so if/when we merge that patch and this one, you'll start seeing
those warnings.

I apologize for not being clearer. This patch depends on:

PCI/ACPI: Extend pci_mcfg_lookup() responsibilities
PCI/ACPI: Check platform-specific ECAM quirks

These patches from Tomasz Nowicki were previously in your pci/ecam-v6
branch, but that seems to have come and gone. How would you like to
proceed?

That looks great, thank you. The earlier PCI HDL and SoC vendors can be
made aware of such problems, the better.

Thanks,

Oh yes, that's right, I forgot that connection. I'm afraid I kind of
dropped the ball on that thread, so I went back and read through it
again.

I *think* the current state is:

- I'm OK with the first two patches that add the quirk
infrastructure.

- My issue with the last three patches that add ThunderX quirks is
that there's no generic description of the ECAM address space.

So if I understand correctly, your Qualcomm patch depends only on the
first two patches.

Then the question is how the Qualcomm ECAM address space is described.
Your quirk overrides the default pci_generic_ecam_ops with the
&pci_32b_ops, but it doesn't touch the address space part, so I assume
the bus ranges and corresponding address space in your MCFG is
correct. So far, so good.

Is there also an ACPI device that contains that space in _CRS? I
think we concluded that the standard solution is to describe this with
a PNP0C02 device.

Would you mind opening a bugzilla at bugzilla.kernel.org and attaching
the dmesg log, /proc/iomem, and maybe a DSDT dump? I'd like to have
something to point at to say "if you need an MCFG quirk, you need the
MCFG bit and *also* these other related ACPI device bits, and here's
how it should be done."

Qualcomm ECAM space includes both the root port and the endpoint address
space with a single contiguous 256 MB address space described in MCFG table.
There is no need to describe additional resources like PNP0C02.

The only thing we missed was 8/16 bits access support on the root port.
That's why, we need Cov's patch.

I put those first two patches and yours on pci/ecam-v6 and pushed it
again, so you can check it out.

This is the crucial point I have failed to communicate clearly: the
PNP0C02 resource is *always* required, even if the MCFG is correct.

The reason is that MCFG is a PCI-specific table, and it should be
possible to boot a kernel with no PCI support. That kernel will not
look at the MCFG. The PCI hardware will still be present and will
still consume the ECAM space, so the OS must be able to discover that
the ECAM space is not available for other devices.

The usual way to for the OS to discover that would be via the _CRS of
a PNP0A03 or PNP0A08 host bridge device. _CRS is what I mean by a
"generic" way to describe this address space, because the ACPI core
can interpret _CRS for all ACPI devices, even if the kernel doesn't
contain drivers for all of those devices.

It turns out that we can't use the _CRS of host bridges because of the
Producer/Consumer bit screwup [1]. So the fallback is to include the
ECAM space in the _CRS of a PNP0C02 device. This is what the PCI
Firmware spec r3.0, Table 4-2, footnote 2 is talking about.

Bjorn

[1] The original ACPI spec intent was that Consumer resources would be
space like ECAM that is consumed directly by the bridge, and Producer
resources would be the windows forwarded down to PCI. But BIOSes
didn't use the Producer/Consumer bit consistently, so we have to
assume that all resources in host bridge _CRS are windows, which
leaves us no way to describe the Consumer resources.

Interesting...

It looks like there is a lot of lessons learnt here from history.

I think this requirement is only true if your system DDR space and PCIe
space overlaps in the memory map. I understand that Intel systems allow
sharing of these two memory ranges. An OS could potentially reclaim this
address range.

If there is no overlap and PCI is not enabled, there can't be any SW entity
to reclaim this space.

Did I miss something?

For protection, it makes sense to reserve this range. I'm trying to understand
who would claim this range.

No, this isn't really anything to do with DDR/PCIe overlaps. This is
just a fundamental part of the ACPI model: the firmware should
communicate all address space usage to the OS either via ACPI or via
standard self-describing mechanisms like PCI BARs.

You can argue that this isn't "necessary", but that's an assumption
based on your knowledge of this particular system, and we don't want
the OS to have to make that assumption. For example, ACPI allows the
hot-addition of new ACPI devices, and we may have to assign address
space for them, and we don't want to collide with existing devices.

We're working to add the PNP0C02 resource to future firmware, but it's
not in the current firmware. Are dmesg and /proc/iomem from the
current firmware interesting or should we wait for the update to file?

Note that the ECAM space is not the only thing that should be
described via these PNP0C02 devices. *All* non-enumerable resources
should be described by the _CRS method of some ACPI device. Here's a
sample from my laptop:

PCI: MMCONFIG for domain 0000 [bus 00-3f] at [mem 0xf8000000-0xfbffffff] (base 0xf8000000)

Do you have firmware in the field that may not get updated? If so,
I'd like to see the whole solution for that firmware, including the
MCFG quirk (which tells the PCI core where the ECAM region is) and
whatever PNP0C02 quirk you figure out to actually reserve the region.

I proposed a PNP0C02 quirk to Duc along these lines of the below. I
don't actually know if it's feasible, but it didn't look as bad as I
expected, so I'd kind of like somebody to try it out. I think you
would have to call this via a DMI hook (do you have DMI on arm64?),
maybe from pnp_init() or similar.

struct pnp_protocol pnpquirk_protocol = {
.name = "Plug and Play Quirks",
};

void quirk()
{
struct pnp_dev *dev;
struct resource res;

ret = pnp_register_protocol(&pnpquirk_protocol);
if (ret)
return;

dev = pnp_alloc_dev(&pnpquirk_protocol, 0, "PNP0C02");
if (!dev)
return;

res.start = XX; /* ECAM start */
res.end = YY; /* ECAM end */
res.flags = IORESOURCE_MEM;
pnp_add_resource(dev, &res);

dev->active = 1;
pnp_add_device(dev);

dev_info(&dev->dev, "fabricated device to reserve ECAM space %pR\n", &res);
}

We do have SMBIOS/DMI on arm64, but we have been successful so far not
to rely on it for quirks, and we'd very much like to keep it that way.

Since this ACPI _CRS method has nothing to do with SMBIOS/DMI, surely
there is a better way to wire up the reservation code to the
information exposed by ACPI?

I'm open to other ways, feel free to propose one :)

If you do a quirk, you need some way to identify the machine/firmware
combination, because you don't want to apply the quirk on every
machine. You're trying to work around a firmware issue, so you
probably want something tied to the firmware version. On x86, that's
typically done with DMI.

I think I misunderstood the purpose of the example: that should only
be necessary if the _CRS methods are missing from the firmware, right?
If we update the firmware to cover all non-enumerable resources by
such a method, we shouldn't need any such quirks at all IIUC

Yes that's correct you need a quirk to fabricate a PNP0c02 motherboard
resource if it is not present in FW.

Right: if the firmware provides a PNP0C02 device with _CRS that
includes the ECAM area, we don't need any PNP/ACPI quirks. We will
still need the MCFG quirks since the hardware doesn't fully support
ECAM.

For the PNP/ACPI quirks, there are two interesting cases:

1) Firmware provides a PNP0C02 device, but its _CRS doesn't include
the ECAM space, and

2) Firmware doesn't provide a PNP0C02 device at all.

For case 1, we could consider adding the ECAM space to the existing
device. This is essentially what quirk_amd_mmconfig_area() does.

For case 2, we would have to fabricate the PNP0C02 device itself, then
add the ECAM space to it. I don't think there's any existing code
that does this, so this is what the example I proposed in this thread
does.

One could argue that it might be cleaner to use case 2 instead of the
case 1 approach because it avoids mucking with an ACPI device from
firmware. For devices that support _SRS, case 1 might break things
because _CRS and _SRS are supposed to use the same resource descriptor
buffer, and if we add resources the firmware doesn't know about, I
don't think we'll encode the _SRS buffer correctly. But this is only
a theoretical risk because we basically never use _SRS today.

In either case, there has to be a mechanism to do the quirk only on
the machine/firmware that needs it, of course.

Aside - and now I realize you'd called this out as recently as last
month. Alas the HPE m400 I reference on the other thread about the
APM quirks doesn't have the motherboard resource entry so we're
stuck with exactly the situation you describe above there.

(this isn't QCOM/QDT specific) We'll go scrub for examples where there
are systems missing the motherboard resource and get firmware fixed. As
an example, I know that HPE ProLiant m400 (Moonshot) will need to be
updated. It would probably be easier to just get the firmware fixed
to add this than to introduce the first DMI quirk for this one.

Ard and others very reasonably want to avoid DMI quirks on arm64. I
take responsibility for being the guilty party that wrote SMBIOS/DMI
into the SBBR originally as a means of keeping this failsafe for the
future and because "that's what x86 does, so people will expect it".
But we'll save that for a nasty situation further down the road. We
are still working on getting vendors (other than QCOM and HPE, who
have had this right since the beginning) to release firmware other
than version "1.0" every time. That's always a good start ;)
