[PATCH RFC v3 01/14] x86/asm: add iosubmit_cmds512() based on movdir64b CPU instruction

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



With the introduction of movdir64b instruction, there is now an instruction
that can write 64 bytes of data atomicaly.

Quoting from Intel SDM:
"There is no atomicity guarantee provided for the 64-byte load operation
from source address, and processor implementations may use multiple
load operations to read the 64-bytes. The 64-byte direct-store issued
by MOVDIR64B guarantees 64-byte write-completion atomicity. This means
that the data arrives at the destination in a single undivided 64-byte
write transaction."

We have identified at least 3 different use cases for this instruction in
the format of func(dst, src, count):
1) Clear poison / Initialize MKTME memory
   Destination is normal memory.
   Source in normal memory. Does not increment. (Copy same line to all
   targets)
   Count (to clear/init multiple lines)
2) Submit command(s) to new devices
   Destination is a special MMIO region for a device. Does not increment.
   Source is normal memory. Increments.
   Count usually is 1, but can be multiple.
3) Copy to iomem in big chunks
   Destination is iomem and increments
   Source in normal memory and increments
   Count is number of chunks to copy

This commit adds support for case #2 to support device that will accept
commands via this instruction.
