[PATCH v5 00/23] PCI: Allow BAR movement during hotplug

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

 



If the firmware or kernel has arranged memory for PCIe devices in a way
that doesn't provide enough space for BARs of a new hotplugged device, the
kernel can pause the drivers of the "obstructing" devices and move their
BARs, so the new BARs can fit into the freed spaces.

To rearrange the BARs and bridge windows these patches releases all of them
after a rescan and re-assigns in the same way as during the initial PCIe
topology scan at system boot.

When a driver is un-paused by the kernel after the PCIe rescan, it should
check if its BARs had moved, and ioremap() them.

Drivers indicate their support of the feature by implementing the new hooks
.rescan_prepare() and .rescan_done() in the struct pci_driver. If a driver
doesn't yet support the feature, BARs of its devices will be considered as
immovable (by checking the pci_dev_movable_bars_supported(dev)) and handled
in the same way as resources with the IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED flag.

If a driver doesn't yet support the feature, its devices are guaranteed to
have their BARs remaining untouched.

Tested on:
 - x86_64 with "pci=realloc,assign-busses,use_crs,pcie_bus_peer2peer";
 - POWER8 PowerNV+OPAL+PHB3 ppc64le with [1] applied and the following:
   "pci=realloc,pcie_bus_peer2peer";
 - both platforms [with extra pacthes (yet to be submitted) for movable bus
   numbers]: manually initiated (via sysfs) rescan has found and turned on
   a hotplugged bridge.

Not so many platforms and test cases were covered, so all who are
interested are highly welcome to test on your setups - the more exotic the
better!

This patchset is a part of our work on adding support for hotplugging
bridges full of other bridges, NVME drives, SAS HBAs and GPUs without
special requirements such as Hot-Plug Controller, reservation of bus
numbers or memory regions by firmware, etc. The next patchset to submit
will implement the movable bus numbers.

    [PATCH v6 0/5] powerpc/powernv/pci: Make hotplug self-sufficient, independent of FW and DT

Changes since v4:
 - Feature is enabled by default (turned on by one of the latest patches);
 - Add pci_dev_movable_bars_supported(dev) instead of marking the immovable
   BARs with the IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED flag;
 - Set up PCIe bridges during rescan via sysfs, so MPS settings are now
   configured not only during system boot or pcihp events;
 - Allow movement of switch's BARs if claimed by portdrv;
 - Update EEH address caches after rescan for powerpc;
 - Don't disable completely hot-added devices which can't have BARs being
   fit - just disable their BARs, so they are still visible in lspci etc;
 - Clearer names: fixed_range_hard -> immovable_range, fixed_range_soft ->
   realloc_range;
 - Drop the patch for pci_restore_config_space() - fixed by properly using
   the runtime PM.

Changes since v3:
 - Rebased to the upstream, so the patches apply cleanly again.

Changes since v2:
 - Fixed double-assignment of bridge windows;
 - Fixed assignment of fixed prefetched resources;
 - Fixed releasing of fixed resources;
 - Fixed a debug message;
 - Removed auto-enabling the movable BARs for x86 - let's rely on the
   "pcie_movable_bars=force" option for now;
 - Reordered the patches - bugfixes first.

Changes since v1:
 - Add a "pcie_movable_bars={ off | force }" command line argument;
 - Handle the IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED flag properly;
 - Don't move BARs of devices which don't support the feature;
 - Guarantee that new hotplugged devices will not steal memory from working
   devices by ignoring the failing new devices with the new PCI_DEV_IGNORE
   flag;
 - Add rescan_prepare()+rescan_done() to the struct pci_driver instead of
   using the reset_prepare()+reset_done() from struct pci_error_handlers;
 - Add a bugfix of a race condition;
 - Fixed hotplug in a non-pre-enabled (by BIOS/firmware) bridge;
 - Fix the compatibility of the feature with pm_runtime and D3-state;
 - Hotplug events from pciehp also can move BARs;
 - Add support of the feature to the NVME driver.
