Hi Rafael,
please review the relevant patches to ACPI: 13/23-16/23. Thank you!
If they are ok, Dan can take them through the CXL tree for upstream merging.
13 - Adds enum for memory_target hmem_attrs in order to enumerate the array index.
14 - Add generic port target allocation for SRAT parsing during HMAT init in order
to extract and store the device handle.
15 - Add a new index for hmem_attrs and save the locality data to the new hmem_attrs
array element with generic port data. The old array elements are preserved for later
when we want to store the calculated CXL memory target locality data.
16 - Add ACPI helper function to retrieve the locality data for generic port. Used by
CXL driver to calculate the full locality data for the CXL memory device.

This series adds the retrieval of QoS Throttling Group (QTG) IDs for the CXL Fixed
Memory Window Structure (CFMWS) and the CXL memory device. It provides the QTG IDs
to user space to provide some guidance with putting the proper DPA range under the
appropriate CFMWS window for a hot-plugged CXL memory device.

The CFMWS structure contains a QTG ID that is associated with the memory window that the
structure exports. On Linux, the CFMWS is represented as a CXL root decoder. The QTG
ID will be attached to the CXL root decoder and exported as a sysfs attribute (qtg_id).

The QTG ID for a device is retrieved via sending a _DSM method to the ACPI0017 device.
The _DSM expects an input package of 4 DWORDS that contains the read latency, write
latency, read bandwidth, and write banwidth. These are the caluclated numbers for the
path between the CXL device and the CXL host bridge (HB). The QTG ID is also exported
as a sysfs attribute under the mem device memory partition type:
/sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/ram/qtg_id
/sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/pmem/qtg_id
Only the first QTG ID is exported. The rest of the information can be found under
/sys/kernel/debug/cxl/memX/qtgmap where all the DPA ranges with the correlated QTG ID
are displayed. Each DSMAS from the device CDAT will provide a DPA range.

The latency numbers are the aggregated latencies for the path between the CXL device and
the CPU. If a CXL device is directly attached to the CXL HB, the latency
would be the aggregated latencies from the device Coherent Device Attribute Table (CDAT),
the caluclated PCIe link latency between the device and the HB, and the generic port data
from ACPI SRAT+HMAT. The bandwidth in this configuration would be the minimum between the
CDAT bandwidth number, link bandwidth between the device and the HB, and the bandwidth data
from the generic port data via ACPI SRAT+HMAT.

If a configuration has a switch in between then the latency would be the aggregated
latencies from the device CDAT, the link latency between device and switch, the
latency from the switch CDAT, the link latency between switch and the HB, and the
generic port latency between the CPU and the CXL HB. The bandwidth calculation would be the
min of device CDAT bandwidth, link bandwith between device and switch, switch CDAT
bandwidth, the link bandwidth between switch and HB, and the generic port bandwidth

There can be 0 or more switches between the CXL device and the CXL HB. There are detailed
examples on calculating bandwidth and latency in the CXL Memory Device Software Guide [4].

The CDAT provides Device Scoped Memory Affinity Structures (DSMAS) that contains the
Device Physical Address (DPA) range and the related Device Scoped Latency and Bandwidth
Informat Stuctures (DSLBIS). Each DSLBIS provides a latency or bandwidth entry that is
tied to a DSMAS entry via a per DSMAS unique DSMAD handle.

This series is based on Lukas's latest DOE changes [5]. Kernel branch with all the code can
be retrieved here [6] for convenience.

Test setup is done with runqemu genport support branch [6]. The setup provides 2 CXL HBs
with one HB having a CXL switch underneath. It also provides generic port support detailed
below.

A hacked up qemu branch is used to support generic port SRAT and HMAT [7].

To create the appropriate HMAT entries for generic port, the following qemu paramters must
be added:

-object genport,id=$X -numa node,genport=genport$X,nodeid=$Y,initiator=$Z
-numa hmat-lb,initiator=$Z,target=$X,hierarchy=memory,data-type=access-latency,latency=$latency
-numa hmat-lb,initiator=$Z,target=$X,hierarchy=memory,data-type=access-bandwidth,bandwidth=$bandwidthM
for ((i = 0; i < total_nodes; i++)); do
	for ((j = 0; j < cxl_hbs; j++ )); do	# 2 CXL HBs
		-numa dist,src=$i,dst=$X,val=$dist
	done
done

See the genport run_qemu branch for full details.
