This series aims to add support for PCI Express 1.1. It is based on the
last patch [0] of the reassignable BAR series. The patch was discarded at
the time because there was no easy solution to solve the overlap between
the UART address and kvmtool's PCI I/O region, which made EDK2 and/or a
guest compiled with 64k pages very unhappy [1]. This is not the case
anymore, as the UART has been moved to address 0x1000000 in commit
45b4968e0de1 ("hw/serial: ARM/arm64: Use MMIO at higher addresses").
The series has also been tested with a work-in-progress version of EDK2
which supports PCI Express when running under kvmtool. Those patches will
be posted soon. The end result is that someone will be able to download an
official iso from the debian website and install it in a kvmtool VM.
The first two patches in the series are small and hopefully straightford
cleanups for stuff that I discovered when playing with kvmtool.
The third patch implements the PCI Express support only for the arm and
arm64 architectures. The reason for that is that I don't know how to do it
for x86, powerpc and mips (and for the last two I don't even have machines
to test it).
The last patch implements a fix for a Realtek RTL8168 NIC, where the Linux
drivers falls back to a device specific method of initialization if the
device is not PCI Express capable (doesn't have the PCI Express
Capability) [2].
Testing
=======
Warning, wall of text. Unless specified, the guest kernel was built from
tag v5.12.
On a Ryzen 3900x:
-----------------
amd64 architecture and no PCIE support, making sure no regressions are
introduced.
1. Direct kernel boot + Debian 10 disk with SDL, to exercise the emulated
VESA device. Was able to login using the display manager and
virtio-{net,blk} were working correctly.
2. Direct kernel boot + Debian 10 disk with SDL + Realtek RTL8168 + Intel
82574L PCIE NIC, both assigned to the VM. Assigning an ip address to the
Realtek NIC fails with the message: "No native access to PCI extended
config space, falling back to CSI", which makes sense since kvmtool is
emulating legacy PCI 3.0 for the amd64 architecture. Other than that,
everything works as expected.
On odroid-c4:
-------------
1. Debian 10 disk + upstream EDK2 built from commit 1f515342d8d8
("DynamicTablesPkg: Use AML_NAME_SEG_SIZE define"), **without** --force-pci
(so using virtio-mmio). Kernel compiled with 4k, 16k and 64k pages. This
was done to make sure there are no regressions.
2. Direct kernel boot + Debian 10 disk, with --force-pci. Tried 3 versions
of the kernel, compiled with 4k, 16k and 64k pagesize. Got the warning:
"TCP: enp0s0: Driver has suspect GRO implementation, TCP performance may be
compromised." I suspect it is because of kvmtool legacy version of virtio.
This was further confirmed by running the same kernel with kvmtool built
from master, with and without --force-pci, the warning was still there.
3. Debian 10 disk + a work-in-progress version of EDK2 which enables PCIE
support for kvmtool, with --force-pci. The kernel was booted via Debian
grub, and same as above, I tried with kernels compiled with 4k, 16k and 64k
page sizes.
On AMD Seattle:
---------------
1. Using the EDK2 image and the passthrough Realtek RTL8168 NIC as the
network interface, I was able to use a vanilla netinstall iso from the
debian website [3] and install debian in a virtual machine. Woohoo!
One gotcha during installation: because kvmtool doesn't emulate a SCSI
CD-ROM, you need to manually specify the virtio disk for the installation
iso. At the 'Detect and mount CD-ROM' prompt, choose No when asked to load
CD-ROM drivers from removable media, Yes to manually select a CD-ROM module
and device, none when choosing the CD-ROM module (it's a virtio disk), then
the device file for accessing the CD-ROM is /dev/vda (only if the iso file
is the first --disk kvmtool parameter, otherwise /dev/vdb if it's the
second, and so on).
2. Realtek RTL8168, direct kernel boot and EDK2 boot with Debian 10 disk,
--force-pci, kernel compiled with 4k and 64k pages (Seattle doesn't support
16k pages) for both direct kernel boot and EDK2 boot.
3. Intel 82574L NIC, direct kernel boot and EDK2 boot with Debian 10 disk,
--force-pci, kernel compiled with 4k and 64k pages for both direct boot and
EDK2 boot.
4. AMD FirePro W2100 VGA + HDMI audio, both assigned to a VM, direct kernel
boot and EDK2 boot with Debian 10 disk, --force-pci, kernel compiled with
4k and 64k pages for both direct boot and EDK2 boot.
For this test, I switched the guest kernel to v5.10 because with v5.11 and
v5.12 I was getting this kernel panic caused by a NULL pointer deference:

In my opinion, this is an upstream bug caused by incorrect clean up when
probing fails. I plan to see if I can reproduce it on my x86 machine (to
make it easier to other people to reproduce it) and then report it
upstream.
Note that I used the radeon driver instead of amdgpu because this is the
recommended driver [4] for the GCN1 architecture.
5. NVIDIA Quadro P400 VGA + HDMI audio, both assigned to a VM, direct kernel
boot and EDK2 boot with Debian 10 disk, --force-pci, kernel compiled with
4k and 64k pages for both direct boot and EDK2 boot.
Nouveau seems to work as expected (it binds to the GPU). but during driver
initialization it looks like the system hangs for 30s-1m. My guess is that
something times out in the driver due to missing emulation in kvmtool:

This was weird. On the host, the PCIE adapter worked just fine with kernel

Assigning it to a VM worked though after the host running Linux v5.8
unitializes the adapter, so I'm going to consider this a pass. After a few
more tests, I was able to trigger the same error on v5.8. On v5.12
initialization has failed every time (so far, at least).
