[PATCH v8 0/5] Fix PF/VF dependency issue

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

 



From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx>

The current implementation of ATS, PASID, and PRI does not handle VF
dependencies correctly.  These are essentially Kuppuswamy's patches; I
reordered and tweaked them slightly.

Please treat this as a proposal, not a done deal, and post a v9 with any
changes needed.

Changes since v7:
 * Moved PRI & PASID capability offset caching to last since they're just
   optimizations
 * Cached offsets at first use instead of adding _init() functions
 * Dropped complicated pci_prg_resp_pasid_required() #ifdefs by just
   searching for the capability again
 * Dropped EA/VF validation since it only enforces spec language without
   fixing any known issues

Changes since v6:
 * Removed locking interfaces used in v6.
 * Made necessary changes to PRI/PASID enable/disable calls to allow
   register changes only for PF.

Changes since v5:
 * Created new patches for PRI/PASID capability caching.
 * Removed individual locks (pri_lock, pasid_lock) and added common
   resource lock to synchronize PRI/PASID updates between PF/VF.
 * Addressed comments from Bjorn Helgaas.

Changes since v4:
 * Defined empty functions for pci_pri_init() and pci_pasid_init() for cases
   where CONFIG_PCI_PRI and CONFIG_PCI_PASID are not enabled.

Changes since v3:
 * Fixed critical path (lock context) in pci_restore_*_state functions.

Changes since v2:
 * Added locking mechanism to synchronize accessing PF registers in VF.
 * Removed spec compliance checks in patches.
 * Addressed comments from Bjorn Helgaas.

Changes since v1:
 * Added more details about the patches in commit log.
 * Removed bulk spec check patch.
 * Addressed comments from Bjorn Helgaas.
