SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +======================================== +ACPI considerations for PCI host bridges +======================================== + +The general rule is that the ACPI namespace should describe everything the +OS might use unless there's another way for the OS to find it [1, 2]. + +For example, there's no standard hardware mechanism for enumerating PCI +host bridges, so the ACPI namespace must describe each host bridge, the +method for accessing PCI config space below it, the address space windows +the host bridge forwards to PCI (using _CRS), and the routing of legacy +INTx interrupts (using _PRT). + +PCI devices, which are below the host bridge, generally do not need to be +described via ACPI. The OS can discover them via the standard PCI +enumeration mechanism, using config accesses to discover and identify +devices and read and size their BARs. However, ACPI may describe PCI +devices if it provides power management or hotplug functionality for them +or if the device has INTx interrupts connected by platform interrupt +controllers and a _PRT is needed to describe those connections. + +ACPI resource description is done via _CRS objects of devices in the ACPI +namespace [2]. The _CRS is like a generalized PCI BAR: the OS can read +_CRS and figure out what resource is being consumed even if it doesn't have +a driver for the device [3]. That's important because it means an old OS +can work correctly even on a system with new devices unknown to the OS. +The new devices might not do anything, but the OS can at least make sure no +resources conflict with them. + +Static tables like MCFG, HPET, ECDT, etc., are *not* mechanisms for +reserving address space. The static tables are for things the OS needs to +know early in boot, before it can parse the ACPI namespace. If a new table +is defined, an old OS needs to operate correctly even though it ignores the +table. _CRS allows that because it is generic and understood by the old +OS; a static table does not. + +If the OS is expected to manage a non-discoverable device described via +ACPI, that device will have a specific _HID/_CID that tells the OS what +driver to bind to it, and the _CRS tells the OS and the driver where the +device's registers are. + +PCI host bridges are PNP0A03 or PNP0A08 devices. Their _CRS should +describe all the address space they consume. This includes all the windows +they forward down to the PCI bus, as well as registers of the host bridge +itself that are not forwarded to PCI. The host bridge registers include +things like secondary/subordinate bus registers that determine the bus +range below the bridge, window registers that describe the apertures, etc. +These are all device-specific, non-architected things, so the only way a +PNP0A03/PNP0A08 driver can manage them is via _PRS/_CRS/_SRS, which contain +the device-specific details. The host bridge registers also include ECAM +space, since it is consumed by the host bridge. + +ACPI defines a Consumer/Producer bit to distinguish the bridge registers +("Consumer") from the bridge apertures ("Producer") [4, 5], but early +BIOSes didn't use that bit correctly. The result is that the current ACPI +spec defines Consumer/Producer only for the Extended Address Space +descriptors; the bit should be ignored in the older QWord/DWord/Word +Address Space descriptors. Consequently, OSes have to assume all +QWord/DWord/Word descriptors are windows. + +Prior to the addition of Extended Address Space descriptors, the failure of +Consumer/Producer meant there was no way to describe bridge registers in +the PNP0A03/PNP0A08 device itself. The workaround was to describe the +bridge registers (including ECAM space) in PNP0C02 catch-all devices [6]. +With the exception of ECAM, the bridge register space is device-specific +anyway, so the generic PNP0A03/PNP0A08 driver (pci_root.c) has no need to +know about it. + +New architectures should be able to use "Consumer" Extended Address Space +descriptors in the PNP0A03 device for bridge registers, including ECAM, +although a strict interpretation of [6] might prohibit this. Old x86 and +ia64 kernels assume all address space descriptors, including "Consumer" +Extended Address Space ones, are windows, so it would not be safe to +describe bridge registers this way on those architectures. + +PNP0C02 "motherboard" devices are basically a catch-all. There's no +programming model for them other than "don't use these resources for +anything else." So a PNP0C02 _CRS should claim any address space that is +(1) not claimed by _CRS under any other device object in the ACPI namespace +and (2) should not be assigned by the OS to something else. + +The PCIe spec requires the Enhanced Configuration Access Method (ECAM) +unless there's a standard firmware interface for config access, e.g., the +ia64 SAL interface [7]. A host bridge consumes ECAM memory address space +and converts memory accesses into PCI configuration accesses. The spec +defines the ECAM address space layout and functionality; only the base of +the address space is device-specific. An ACPI OS learns the base address +from either the static MCFG table or a _CBA method in the PNP0A03 device. + +The MCFG table must describe the ECAM space of non-hot pluggable host +bridges [8]. Since MCFG is a static table and can't be updated by hotplug, +a _CBA method in the PNP0A03 device describes the ECAM space of a +hot-pluggable host bridge [9]. Note that for both MCFG and _CBA, the base +address always corresponds to bus 0, even if the bus range below the bridge +(which is reported via _CRS) doesn't start at 0. + + +[1] ACPI 6.2, sec 6.1: + For any device that is on a non-enumerable type of bus (for example, an + ISA bus), OSPM enumerates the devices' identifier(s) and the ACPI + system firmware must supply an _HID object ... for each device to + enable OSPM to do that. + +[2] ACPI 6.2, sec 3.7: + The OS enumerates motherboard devices simply by reading through the + ACPI Namespace looking for devices with hardware IDs. + + Each device enumerated by ACPI includes ACPI-defined objects in the + ACPI Namespace that report the hardware resources the device could + occupy [_PRS], an object that reports the resources that are currently + used by the device [_CRS], and objects for configuring those resources + [_SRS]. The information is used by the Plug and Play OS (OSPM) to + configure the devices. + +[3] ACPI 6.2, sec 6.2: + OSPM uses device configuration objects to configure hardware resources + for devices enumerated via ACPI. Device configuration objects provide + information about current and possible resource requirements, the + relationship between shared resources, and methods for configuring + hardware resources. + + When OSPM enumerates a device, it calls _PRS to determine the resource + requirements of the device. It may also call _CRS to find the current + resource settings for the device. Using this information, the Plug and + Play system determines what resources the device should consume and + sets those resources by calling the device’s _SRS control method. + + In ACPI, devices can consume resources (for example, legacy keyboards), + provide resources (for example, a proprietary PCI bridge), or do both. + Unless otherwise specified, resources for a device are assumed to be + taken from the nearest matching resource above the device in the device + hierarchy. + +[4] ACPI 6.2, sec 6.4.3.5.1, 2, 3, 4: + QWord/DWord/Word Address Space Descriptor (.1, .2, .3) + General Flags: Bit [0] Ignored + + Extended Address Space Descriptor (.4) + General Flags: Bit [0] Consumer/Producer: + + * 1 – This device consumes this resource + * 0 – This device produces and consumes this resource + +[5] ACPI 6.2, sec 19.6.43: + ResourceUsage specifies whether the Memory range is consumed by + this device (ResourceConsumer) or passed on to child devices + (ResourceProducer).

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +=============== +Boot Interrupts +=============== + +:Author: - Sean V Kelley <sean.v.kelley@linux.intel.com> + +Overview +======== + +On PCI Express, interrupts are represented with either MSI or inbound +interrupt messages (Assert_INTx/Deassert_INTx). The integrated IO-APIC in a +given Core IO converts the legacy interrupt messages from PCI Express to +MSI interrupts. If the IO-APIC is disabled (via the mask bits in the +IO-APIC table entries), the messages are routed to the legacy PCH. This +in-band interrupt mechanism was traditionally necessary for systems that +did not support the IO-APIC and for boot. Intel in the past has used the +term "boot interrupts" to describe this mechanism. Further, the PCI Express +protocol describes this in-band legacy wire-interrupt INTx mechanism for +I/O devices to signal PCI-style level interrupts. The subsequent paragraphs +describe problems with the Core IO handling of INTx message routing to the +PCH and mitigation within BIOS and the OS. + + +Issue +===== + +When in-band legacy INTx messages are forwarded to the PCH, they in turn +trigger a new interrupt for which the OS likely lacks a handler. When an +interrupt goes unhandled over time, they are tracked by the Linux kernel as +Spurious Interrupts. The IRQ will be disabled by the Linux kernel after it +reaches a specific count with the error "nobody cared". This disabled IRQ +now prevents valid usage by an existing interrupt which may happen to share +the IRQ line:: + + irq 19: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) + CPU: 0 PID: 2988 Comm: irq/34-nipalk Tainted: 4.14.87-rt49-02410-g4a640ec-dirty #1 + Hardware name: National Instruments NI PXIe-8880/NI PXIe-8880, BIOS 2.1.5f1 01/09/2020 + Call Trace: + + <IRQ> + ? dump_stack+0x46/0x5e + ? __report_bad_irq+0x2e/0xb0 + ? note_interrupt+0x242/0x290 + ? nNIKAL100_memoryRead16+0x8/0x10 [nikal] + ? handle_irq_event_percpu+0x55/0x70 + ? handle_irq_event+0x4f/0x80 + ? handle_fasteoi_irq+0x81/0x180 + ? handle_irq+0x1c/0x30 + ? do_IRQ+0x41/0xd0 + ? common_interrupt+0x84/0x84 + </IRQ> + + handlers: + irq_default_primary_handler threaded usb_hcd_irq + Disabling IRQ #19 + + +Conditions +========== + +The use of threaded interrupts is the most likely condition to trigger +this problem today. Threaded interrupts may not be reenabled after the IRQ +handler wakes. These "one shot" conditions mean that the threaded interrupt +needs to keep the interrupt line masked until the threaded handler has run. +Especially when dealing with high data rate interrupts, the thread needs to +run to completion; otherwise some handlers will end up in stack overflows +since the interrupt of the issuing device is still active. + +Affected Chipsets +================= + +The legacy interrupt forwarding mechanism exists today in a number of +devices including but not limited to chipsets from AMD/ATI, Broadcom, and +Intel. Changes made through the mitigations below have been applied to +drivers/pci/quirks.c + +Starting with ICX there are no longer any IO-APICs in the Core IO's +devices. IO-APIC is only in the PCH. Devices connected to the Core IO's +PCIe Root Ports will use native MSI/MSI-X mechanisms. + +Mitigations +=========== + +The mitigations take the form of PCI quirks. The preference has been to +first identify and make use of a means to disable the routing to the PCH. +In such a case a quirk to disable boot interrupt generation can be +added.

Therefore, on chipsets where this INTx routing cannot be +disabled, the Linux kernel will reroute the valid interrupt to its legacy +interrupt.

The MSI-X +capability was also introduced with PCI 3.0. It supports more interrupts +per device than MSI and allows interrupts to be independently configured. + +Devices may support both MSI and MSI-X, but only one can be enabled at +a time. + + +Why use MSIs? +============= + +There are three reasons why using MSIs can give an advantage over +traditional pin-based interrupts. + +Pin-based PCI interrupts are often shared amongst several devices. +To support this, the kernel must call each interrupt handler associated +with an interrupt, which leads to reduced performance for the system as +a whole. MSIs are never shared, so this problem cannot arise. + +When a device writes data to memory, then raises a pin-based interrupt, +it is possible that the interrupt may arrive before all the data has +arrived in memory (this becomes more likely with devices behind PCI-PCI +bridges). In order to ensure that all the data has arrived in memory, +the interrupt handler must read a register on the device which raised +the interrupt. PCI transaction ordering rules require that all the data +arrive in memory before the value may be returned from the register. +Using MSIs avoids this problem as the interrupt-generating write cannot +pass the data writes, so by the time the interrupt is raised, the driver +knows that all the data has arrived in memory. + +PCI devices can only support a single pin-based interrupt per function. +Often drivers have to query the device to find out what event has +occurred, slowing down interrupt handling for the common case. With +MSIs, a device can support more interrupts, allowing each interrupt +to be specialised to a different purpose. One possible design gives +infrequent conditions (such as errors) their own interrupt which allows +the driver to handle the normal interrupt handling path more efficiently. +Other possible designs include giving one interrupt to each packet queue +in a network card or each port in a storage controller. + + +How to use MSIs +=============== + +PCI devices are initialised to use pin-based interrupts. The device +driver has to set up the device to use MSI or MSI-X. Not all machines +support MSIs correctly, and for those machines, the APIs described below +will simply fail and the device will continue to use pin-based interrupts. + +Include kernel support for MSIs +------------------------------- + +To support MSI or MSI-X, the kernel must be built with the CONFIG_PCI_MSI +option enabled. This option is only available on some architectures, +and it may depend on some other options also being set. For example, +on x86, you must also enable X86_UP_APIC or SMP in order to see the +CONFIG_PCI_MSI option. + +Using MSI +--------- + +Most of the hard work is done for the driver in the PCI layer. The driver +simply has to request that the PCI layer set up the MSI capability for this +device. + +To automatically use MSI or MSI-X interrupt vectors, use the following +function:: + + int pci_alloc_irq_vectors(struct pci_dev *dev, unsigned int min_vecs, + unsigned int max_vecs, unsigned int flags); + +which allocates up to max_vecs interrupt vectors for a PCI device. It +returns the number of vectors allocated or a negative error. If the device +has a requirements for a minimum number of vectors the driver can pass a +min_vecs argument set to this limit, and the PCI core will return -ENOSPC +if it can't meet the minimum number of vectors. + +The flags argument is used to specify which type of interrupt can be used +by the device and the driver (PCI_IRQ_LEGACY, PCI_IRQ_MSI, PCI_IRQ_MSIX). +A convenient short-hand (PCI_IRQ_ALL_TYPES) is also available to ask for +any possible kind of interrupt. If the PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY flag is set, +pci_alloc_irq_vectors() will spread the interrupts around the available CPUs. + +To get the Linux IRQ numbers passed to request_irq() and free_irq() and the +vectors, use the following function:: + + int pci_irq_vector(struct pci_dev *dev, unsigned int nr); + +Any allocated resources should be freed before removing the device using +the following function:: + + void pci_free_irq_vectors(struct pci_dev *dev); + +If a device supports both MSI-X and MSI capabilities, this API will use the +MSI-X facilities in preference to the MSI facilities. MSI-X supports any +number of interrupts between 1 and 2048. In contrast, MSI is restricted to +a maximum of 32 interrupts (and must be a power of two). In addition, the +MSI interrupt vectors must be allocated consecutively, so the system might +not be able to allocate as many vectors for MSI as it could for MSI-X. On +some platforms, MSI interrupts must all be targeted at the same set of CPUs +whereas MSI-X interrupts can all be targeted at different CPUs. + +If a device supports neither MSI-X or MSI it will fall back to a single +legacy IRQ vector. + +The typical usage of MSI or MSI-X interrupts is to allocate as many vectors +as possible, likely up to the limit supported by the device. If nvec is +larger than the number supported by the device it will automatically be +capped to the supported limit, so there is no need to query the number of +vectors supported beforehand:: + + nvec = pci_alloc_irq_vectors(pdev, 1, nvec, PCI_IRQ_ALL_TYPES) + if (nvec < 0) + goto out_err; + +If a driver is unable or unwilling to deal with a variable number of MSI +interrupts it can request a particular number of interrupts by passing that +number to pci_alloc_irq_vectors() function as both 'min_vecs' and +'max_vecs' parameters:: + + ret = pci_alloc_irq_vectors(pdev, nvec, nvec, PCI_IRQ_ALL_TYPES); + if (ret < 0) + goto out_err; + +The most notorious example of the request type described above is enabling +the single MSI mode for a device. It could be done by passing two 1s as +'min_vecs' and 'max_vecs':: + + ret = pci_alloc_irq_vectors(pdev, 1, 1, PCI_IRQ_ALL_TYPES); + if (ret < 0) + goto out_err; + +Some devices might not support using legacy line interrupts, in which case +the driver can specify that only MSI or MSI-X is acceptable:: + + nvec = pci_alloc_irq_vectors(pdev, 1, nvec, PCI_IRQ_MSI | PCI_IRQ_MSIX); + if (nvec < 0) + goto out_err; + +Legacy APIs +----------- + +The following old APIs to enable and disable MSI or MSI-X interrupts should +not be used in new code:: + + pci_enable_msi() /* deprecated */ + pci_disable_msi() /* deprecated */ + pci_enable_msix_range() /* deprecated */ + pci_enable_msix_exact() /* deprecated */ + pci_disable_msix() /* deprecated */ + +Additionally there are APIs to provide the number of supported MSI or MSI-X +vectors: pci_msi_vec_count() and pci_msix_vec_count(). In general these +should be avoided in favor of letting pci_alloc_irq_vectors() cap the +number of vectors. If you have a legitimate special use case for the count +of vectors we might have to revisit that decision and add a +pci_nr_irq_vectors() helper that handles MSI and MSI-X transparently. + +Considerations when using MSIs +------------------------------ + +Spinlocks +~~~~~~~~~ + +Most device drivers have a per-device spinlock which is taken in the +interrupt handler. With pin-based interrupts or a single MSI, it is not +necessary to disable interrupts (Linux guarantees the same interrupt will +not be re-entered). If a device uses multiple interrupts, the driver +must disable interrupts while the lock is held. If the device sends +a different interrupt, the driver will deadlock trying to recursively +acquire the spinlock. Such deadlocks can be avoided by using +spin_lock_irqsave() or spin_lock_irq() which disable local interrupts +and acquire the lock (see Documentation/kernel-hacking/locking.rst). + +How to tell whether MSI/MSI-X is enabled on a device +---------------------------------------------------- + +Using 'lspci -v' (as root) may show some devices with "MSI", "Message +Signalled Interrupts" or "MSI-X" capabilities. Each of these capabilities +has an 'Enable' flag which is followed with either "+" (enabled) +or "-" (disabled). + + +MSI quirks +========== + +Several PCI chipsets or devices are known not to support MSIs. +The PCI stack provides three ways to disable MSIs: + +1. globally +2. on all devices behind a specific bridge +3. on a single device + +Disabling MSIs globally +----------------------- + +Some host chipsets simply don't support MSIs properly. If we're +lucky, the manufacturer knows this and has indicated it in the ACPI +FADT table. In this case, Linux automatically disables MSIs. +Some boards don't include this information in the table and so we have +to detect them ourselves. The complete list of these is found near the +quirk_disable_all_msi() function in drivers/pci/quirks.c. + +If you have a board which has problems with MSIs, you can pass pci=nomsi +on the kernel command line to disable MSIs on all devices. It would be +in your best interests to report the problem to linux-pci@vger.kernel.org +including a full 'lspci -v' so we can add the quirks to the kernel. + +Disabling MSIs below a bridge +----------------------------- + +Some PCI bridges are not able to route MSIs between busses properly. +In this case, MSIs must be disabled on all devices behind the bridge. + +Some bridges allow you to enable MSIs by changing some bits in their +PCI configuration space (especially the Hypertransport chipsets such +as the nVidia nForce and Serverworks HT2000). As with host chipsets, +Linux mostly knows about them and automatically enables MSIs if it can. +If you have a bridge unknown to Linux, you can enable +MSIs in configuration space using whatever method you know works, then +enable MSIs on that bridge by doing:: + + echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/$bridge/msi_bus + +where $bridge is the PCI address of the bridge you've enabled (eg +0000:00:0e.0). + +To disable MSIs, echo 0 instead of 1. Changing this value should be +done with caution as it could break interrupt handling for all devices +below this bridge. + +Again, please notify linux-pci@vger.kernel.org of any bridges that need +special handling. + +Disabling MSIs on a single device +--------------------------------- + +Some devices are known to have faulty MSI implementations. Usually this +is handled in the individual device driver, but occasionally it's necessary +to handle this with a quirk. Some drivers have an option to disable use +of MSI. While this is a convenient workaround for the driver author, +it is not good practice, and should not be emulated. + +Finding why MSIs are disabled on a device +----------------------------------------- + +From the above three sections, you can see that there are many reasons +why MSIs may not be enabled for a given device. Your first step should +be to examine your dmesg carefully to determine whether MSIs are enabled +for your machine. You should also check your .config to be sure you +have enabled CONFIG_PCI_MSI. + +Then, 'lspci -t' gives the list of bridges above a device. Reading +`/sys/bus/pci/devices/*/msi_bus` will tell you whether MSIs are enabled (1) +or disabled (0). If 0 is found in any of the msi_bus files belonging +to bridges between the PCI root and the device, MSIs are disabled. + +It is also worth checking the device driver to see whether it supports MSIs. +For example, it may contain calls to pci_alloc_irq_vectors() with the +PCI_IRQ_MSI or PCI_IRQ_MSIX flags. diff --git a/Documentation/PCI/pci-error-recovery.rst b/Documentation/PCI/pci-error-recovery.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..84ceebb08 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/PCI/pci-error-recovery.rst @@ -0,0 +1,426 @@ +..

Some of the more advanced +chipsets are able to deal with these errors; these include PCI-E chipsets, +and the PCI-host bridges found on IBM Power4, Power5 and Power6-based +pSeries boxes. A typical action taken is to disconnect the affected device, +halting all I/O to it. The goal of a disconnection is to avoid system +corruption; for example, to halt system memory corruption due to DMA's +to "wild" addresses. Typically, a reconnection mechanism is also +offered, so that the affected PCI device(s) are reset and put back +into working condition. The reset phase requires coordination +between the affected device drivers and the PCI controller chip. +This document describes a generic API for notifying device drivers +of a bus disconnection, and then performing error recovery. +This API is currently implemented in the 2.6.16 and later kernels. + +Reporting and recovery is performed in several steps. First, when +a PCI hardware error has resulted in a bus disconnect, that event +is reported as soon as possible to all affected device drivers, +including multiple instances of a device driver on multi-function +cards. This allows device drivers to avoid deadlocking in spinloops, +waiting for some i/o-space register to change, when it never will. +It also gives the drivers a chance to defer incoming I/O as +needed. + +Next, recovery is performed in several stages. Most of the complexity +is forced by the need to handle multi-function devices, that is, +devices that have multiple device drivers associated with them. +In the first stage, each driver is allowed to indicate what type +of reset it desires, the choices being a simple re-enabling of I/O +or requesting a slot reset. + +If any driver requests a slot reset, that is what will be done. + +After a reset and/or a re-enabling of I/O, all drivers are +again notified, so that they may then perform any device setup/config +that may be required. After these have all completed, a final +"resume normal operations" event is sent out. + +The biggest reason for choosing a kernel-based implementation rather +than a user-space implementation was the need to deal with bus +disconnects of PCI devices attached to storage media, and, in particular, +disconnects from devices holding the root file system. If the root +file system is disconnected, a user-space mechanism would have to go +through a large number of contortions to complete recovery. Almost all +of the current Linux file systems are not tolerant of disconnection +from/reconnection to their underlying block device. By contrast, +bus errors are easy to manage in the device driver. Indeed, most +device drivers already handle very similar recovery procedures; +for example, the SCSI-generic layer already provides significant +mechanisms for dealing with SCSI bus errors and SCSI bus resets. + + +Detailed Design +=============== + +Design and implementation details below, based on a chain of +public email discussions with Ben Herrenschmidt, circa 5 April 2005. + +The error recovery API support is exposed to the driver in the form of +a structure of function pointers pointed to by a new field in struct +pci_driver. A driver that fails to provide the structure is "non-aware", +and the actual recovery steps taken are platform dependent. The +arch/powerpc implementation will simulate a PCI hotplug remove/add. + +This structure has the form:: + + struct pci_error_handlers + { + int (*error_detected)(struct pci_dev *dev, pci_channel_state_t); + int (*mmio_enabled)(struct pci_dev *dev); + int (*slot_reset)(struct pci_dev *dev); + void (*resume)(struct pci_dev *dev); + }; + +The possible channel states are:: + + typedef enum { + pci_channel_io_normal, /* I/O channel is in normal state */ + pci_channel_io_frozen, /* I/O to channel is blocked */ + pci_channel_io_perm_failure, /* PCI card is dead */ + } pci_channel_state_t; + +Possible return values are:: + + enum pci_ers_result { + PCI_ERS_RESULT_NONE, /* no result/none/not supported in device driver */ + PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER, /* Device driver can recover without slot reset */ + PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET, /* Device driver wants slot to be reset. */ + PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT, /* Device has completely failed, is unrecoverable */ + PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED, /* Device driver is fully recovered and operational */ + }; + +A driver does not have to implement all of these callbacks; however, +if it implements any, it must implement error_detected(). If a callback +is not implemented, the corresponding feature is considered unsupported. +For example, if mmio_enabled() and resume() aren't there, then it +is assumed that the driver is not doing any direct recovery and requires +a slot reset. Typically a driver will want to know about +a slot_reset(). + +The actual steps taken by a platform to recover from a PCI error +event will be platform-dependent, but will follow the general +sequence described below. + +STEP 0: Error Event +------------------- +A PCI bus error is detected by the PCI hardware. On powerpc, the slot +is isolated, in that all I/O is blocked: all reads return 0xffffffff, +all writes are ignored. + + +STEP 1: Notification +-------------------- +Platform calls the error_detected() callback on every instance of +every driver affected by the error. + +At this point, the device might not be accessible anymore, depending on +the platform (the slot will be isolated on powerpc). The driver may +already have "noticed" the error because of a failing I/O, but this +is the proper "synchronization point", that is, it gives the driver +a chance to cleanup, waiting for pending stuff (timers, whatever, etc...) +to complete; it can take semaphores, schedule, etc... everything but +touch the device. Within this function and after it returns, the driver +shouldn't do any new IOs. Called in task context. This is sort of a +"quiesce" point. See note about interrupts at the end of this doc. + +All drivers participating in this system must implement this call. +The driver must return one of the following result codes: + + - PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER + Driver returns this if it thinks it might be able to recover + the HW by just banging IOs or if it wants to be given + a chance to extract some diagnostic information (see + mmio_enable, below). + - PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET + Driver returns this if it can't recover without a + slot reset. + - PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT + Driver returns this if it doesn't want to recover at all. + +The next step taken will depend on the result codes returned by the +drivers. + +If all drivers on the segment/slot return PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER, +then the platform should re-enable IOs on the slot (or do nothing in +particular, if the platform doesn't isolate slots), and recovery +proceeds to STEP 2 (MMIO Enable). + +If any driver requested a slot reset (by returning PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET), +then recovery proceeds to STEP 4 (Slot Reset). + +If the platform is unable to recover the slot, the next step +is STEP 6 (Permanent Failure). + +.. note:: + + The current powerpc implementation assumes that a device driver will + *not* schedule or semaphore in this routine; the current powerpc + implementation uses one kernel thread to notify all devices; + thus, if one device sleeps/schedules, all devices are affected. + Doing better requires complex multi-threaded logic in the error + recovery implementation (e.g. waiting for all notification threads + to "join" before proceeding with recovery.) This seems excessively + complex and not worth implementing. + + The current powerpc implementation doesn't much care if the device + attempts I/O at this point, or not. I/O's will fail, returning + a value of 0xff on read, and writes will be dropped. If more than + EEH_MAX_FAILS I/O's are attempted to a frozen adapter, EEH + assumes that the device driver has gone into an infinite loop + and prints an error to syslog. A reboot is then required to + get the device working again. + +STEP 2: MMIO Enabled +-------------------- +The platform re-enables MMIO to the device (but typically not the +DMA), and then calls the mmio_enabled() callback on all affected +device drivers. + +This is the "early recovery" call. IOs are allowed again, but DMA is +not, with some restrictions. This is NOT a callback for the driver to +start operations again, only to peek/poke at the device, extract diagnostic +information, if any, and eventually do things like trigger a device local +reset or some such, but not restart operations. This callback is made if +all drivers on a segment agree that they can try to recover and if no automatic +link reset was performed by the HW. If the platform can't just re-enable IOs +without a slot reset or a link reset, it will not call this callback, and +instead will have gone directly to STEP 3 (Link Reset) or STEP 4 (Slot Reset) + +.. note:: + + The following is proposed; no platform implements this yet: + Proposal: All I/O's should be done _synchronously_ from within + this callback, errors triggered by them will be returned via + the normal pci_check_whatever() API, no new error_detected() + callback will be issued due to an error happening here. However, + such an error might cause IOs to be re-blocked for the whole + segment, and thus invalidate the recovery that other devices + on the same segment might have done, forcing the whole segment + into one of the next states, that is, link reset or slot reset. + +The driver should return one of the following result codes: + - PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED + Driver returns this if it thinks the device is fully + functional and thinks it is ready to start + normal driver operations again. There is no + guarantee that the driver will actually be + allowed to proceed, as another driver on the + same segment might have failed and thus triggered a + slot reset on platforms that support it. + + - PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET + Driver returns this if it thinks the device is not + recoverable in its current state and it needs a slot + reset to proceed. + + - PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT + Same as above. Total failure, no recovery even after + reset driver dead. (To be defined more precisely) + +The next step taken depends on the results returned by the drivers. +If all drivers returned PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED, then the platform +proceeds to either STEP3 (Link Reset) or to STEP 5 (Resume Operations). + +If any driver returned PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET, then the platform +proceeds to STEP 4 (Slot Reset) + +STEP 3: Link Reset +------------------ +The platform resets the link. This is a PCI-Express specific step +and is done whenever a fatal error has been detected that can be +"solved" by resetting the link. + +STEP 4: Slot Reset +------------------ + +In response to a return value of PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET, the +platform will perform a slot reset on the requesting PCI device(s). +The actual steps taken by a platform to perform a slot reset +will be platform-dependent. Upon completion of slot reset, the +platform will call the device slot_reset() callback. + +Powerpc platforms implement two levels of slot reset: +soft reset(default) and fundamental(optional) reset. + +Powerpc soft reset consists of asserting the adapter #RST line and then +restoring the PCI BAR's and PCI configuration header to a state +that is equivalent to what it would be after a fresh system +power-on followed by power-on BIOS/system firmware initialization. +Soft reset is also known as hot-reset. + +Powerpc fundamental reset is supported by PCI Express cards only +and results in device's state machines, hardware logic, port states and +configuration registers to initialize to their default conditions. + +For most PCI devices, a soft reset will be sufficient for recovery. +Optional fundamental reset is provided to support a limited number +of PCI Express devices for which a soft reset is not sufficient +for recovery. + +If the platform supports PCI hotplug, then the reset might be +performed by toggling the slot electrical power off/on. + +It is important for the platform to restore the PCI config space +to the "fresh poweron" state, rather than the "last state". After +a slot reset, the device driver will almost always use its standard +device initialization routines, and an unusual config space setup +may result in hung devices, kernel panics, or silent data corruption. + +This call gives drivers the chance to re-initialize the hardware +(re-download firmware, etc.). At this point, the driver may assume +that the card is in a fresh state and is fully functional. The slot +is unfrozen and the driver has full access to PCI config space, +memory mapped I/O space and DMA. Interrupts (Legacy, MSI, or MSI-X) +will also be available. + +Drivers should not restart normal I/O processing operations +at this point. If all device drivers report success on this +callback, the platform will call resume() to complete the sequence, +and let the driver restart normal I/O processing. + +A driver can still return a critical failure for this function if +it can't get the device operational after reset. If the platform +previously tried a soft reset, it might now try a hard reset (power +cycle) and then call slot_reset() again. It the device still can't +be recovered, there is nothing more that can be done; the platform +will typically report a "permanent failure" in such a case. The +device will be considered "dead" in this case. + +Drivers for multi-function cards will need to coordinate among +themselves as to which driver instance will perform any "one-shot" +or global device initialization. For example, the Symbios sym53cxx2 +driver performs device init only from PCI function 0:: + + + if (PCI_FUNC(pdev->devfn) == 0) + + sym_reset_scsi_bus(np, 0); + +Result codes: + - PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT + Same as above. + +Drivers for PCI Express cards that require a fundamental reset must +set the needs_freset bit in the pci_dev structure in their probe function. +For example, the QLogic qla2xxx driver sets the needs_freset bit for certain +PCI card types:: + + + /* Set EEH reset type to fundamental if required by hba */ + + if (IS_QLA24XX(ha) || IS_QLA25XX(ha) || IS_QLA81XX(ha)) + + pdev->needs_freset = 1; + + + +Platform proceeds either to STEP 5 (Resume Operations) or STEP 6 (Permanent +Failure). + +.. note:: + + The current powerpc implementation does not try a power-cycle + reset if the driver returned PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT. + However, it probably should. + + +STEP 5: Resume Operations +------------------------- +The platform will call the resume() callback on all affected device +drivers if all drivers on the segment have returned +PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED from one of the 3 previous callbacks. +The goal of this callback is to tell the driver to restart activity, +that everything is back and running. This callback does not return +a result code. + +At this point, if a new error happens, the platform will restart +a new error recovery sequence. + +STEP 6: Permanent Failure +------------------------- +A "permanent failure" has occurred, and the platform cannot recover +the device. The platform will call error_detected() with a +pci_channel_state_t value of pci_channel_io_perm_failure. + +The device driver should, at this point, assume the worst. It should +cancel all pending I/O, refuse all new I/O, returning -EIO to +higher layers. The device driver should then clean up all of its +memory and remove itself from kernel operations, much as it would +during system shutdown. + +The platform will typically notify the system operator of the +permanent failure in some way. If the device is hotplug-capable, +the operator will probably want to remove and replace the device. +Note, however, not all failures are truly "permanent". Some are +caused by over-heating, some by a poorly seated card. Many +PCI error events are caused by software bugs, e.g. DMA's to +wild addresses or bogus split transactions due to programming +errors. See the discussion in powerpc/eeh-pci-error-recovery.txt +for additional detail on real-life experience of the causes of +software errors. + + +Conclusion; General Remarks +--------------------------- +The way the callbacks are called is platform policy. A platform with +no slot reset capability may want to just "ignore" drivers that can't +recover (disconnect them) and try to let other cards on the same segment +recover. Keep in mind that in most real life cases, though, there will +be only one driver per segment. + +Now, a note about interrupts. If you get an interrupt and your +device is dead or has been isolated, there is a problem :) +The current policy is to turn this into a platform policy. +That is, the recovery API only requires that: + + - There is no guarantee that interrupt delivery can proceed from any + device on the segment starting from the error detection and until the + slot_reset callback is called, at which point interrupts are expected + to be fully operational. + + - There is no guarantee that interrupt delivery is stopped, that is, + a driver that gets an interrupt after detecting an error, or that detects + an error within the interrupt handler such that it prevents proper + ack'ing of the interrupt (and thus removal of the source) should just + return IRQ_NOTHANDLED. It's up to the platform to deal with that + condition, typically by masking the IRQ source during the duration of + the error handling. It is expected that the platform "knows" which + interrupts are routed to error-management capable slots and can deal + with temporarily disabling that IRQ number during error processing (this + isn't terribly complex). That means some IRQ latency for other devices + sharing the interrupt, but there is simply no other way. High end + platforms aren't supposed to share interrupts between many devices + anyway :) + +.. note:: + + Implementation details for the powerpc platform are discussed in + the file Documentation/powerpc/eeh-pci-error-recovery.rst + + As of this writing, there is a growing list of device drivers with + patches implementing error recovery.

The physical device is referred to as Physical Function (PF) +while the virtual devices are referred to as Virtual Functions (VF). +Allocation of the VF can be dynamically controlled by the PF via +registers encapsulated in the capability. By default, this feature is +not enabled and the PF behaves as traditional PCIe device. Once it's +turned on, each VF's PCI configuration space can be accessed by its own +Bus, Device and Function Number (Routing ID). And each VF also has PCI +Memory Space, which is used to map its register set. VF device driver +operates on the register set so it can be functional and appear as a +real existing PCI device. + +User Guide +========== + +How can I enable SR-IOV capability +---------------------------------- + +Multiple methods are available for SR-IOV enablement. +In the first method, the device driver (PF driver) will control the +enabling and disabling of the capability via API provided by SR-IOV core. +If the hardware has SR-IOV capability, loading its PF driver would +enable it and all VFs associated with the PF. Some PF drivers require +a module parameter to be set to determine the number of VFs to enable. +In the second method, a write to the sysfs file sriov_numvfs will +enable and disable the VFs associated with a PCIe PF. This method +enables per-PF, VF enable/disable values versus the first method, +which applies to all PFs of the same device. Additionally, the +PCI SRIOV core support ensures that enable/disable operations are +valid to reduce duplication in multiple drivers for the same +checks, e.g., check numvfs == 0 if enabling VFs, ensure +numvfs <= totalvfs. +The second method is the recommended method for new/future VF devices. + +How can I use the Virtual Functions +----------------------------------- + +The VF is treated as hot-plugged PCI devices in the kernel, so they +should be able to work in the same way as real PCI devices.

This short paper +tries to introduce all potential driver authors to Linux APIs for +PCI device drivers. + +A more complete resource is the third edition of "Linux Device Drivers" +by Jonathan Corbet, Alessandro Rubini, and Greg Kroah-Hartman. +LDD3 is available for free (under Creative Commons License) from: +https://lwn.net/Kernel/LDD3/. + +However, keep in mind that all documents are subject to "bit rot". +Refer to the source code if things are not working as described here. + +Please send questions/comments/patches about Linux PCI API to the +"Linux PCI" <linux-pci@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz> mailing list. + + +Structure of PCI drivers +======================== +PCI drivers "discover" PCI devices in a system via pci_register_driver(). +Actually, it's the other way around. When the PCI generic code discovers +a new device, the driver with a matching "description" will be notified. +Details on this below. + +pci_register_driver() leaves most of the probing for devices to +the PCI layer and supports online insertion/removal of devices [thus +supporting hot-pluggable PCI, CardBus, and Express-Card in a single driver]. +pci_register_driver() call requires passing in a table of function +pointers and thus dictates the high level structure of a driver. + +Once the driver knows about a PCI device and takes ownership, the +driver generally needs to perform the following initialization: + + - Enable the device + - Request MMIO/IOP resources + - Set the DMA mask size (for both coherent and streaming DMA) + - Allocate and initialize shared control data (pci_allocate_coherent()) + - Access device configuration space (if needed) + - Register IRQ handler (request_irq()) + - Initialize non-PCI (i.e. LAN/SCSI/etc parts of the chip) + - Enable DMA/processing engines + +When done using the device, and perhaps the module needs to be unloaded, +the driver needs to take the follow steps: + + - Disable the device from generating IRQs + - Release the IRQ (free_irq()) + - Stop all DMA activity + - Release DMA buffers (both streaming and coherent) + - Unregister from other subsystems (e.g. scsi or netdev) + - Release MMIO/IOP resources + - Disable the device + +Most of these topics are covered in the following sections. +For the rest look at LDD3 or <linux/pci.h> . + +If the PCI subsystem is not configured (CONFIG_PCI is not set), most of +the PCI functions described below are defined as inline functions either +completely empty or just returning an appropriate error codes to avoid +lots of ifdefs in the drivers. + + +pci_register_driver() call +========================== + +PCI device drivers call ``pci_register_driver()`` during their +initialization with a pointer to a structure describing the driver +(``struct pci_driver``): + +.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/pci.h + :functions: pci_driver + +The ID table is an array of ``struct pci_device_id`` entries ending with an +all-zero entry.

Ignored for non-modular drivers. + ====== ================================================= + +Tips on when/where to use the above attributes: + - The module_init()/module_exit() functions (and all + initialization functions called _only_ from these) + should be marked __init/__exit. + + - Do not mark the struct pci_driver. + + - Do NOT mark a function if you are not sure which mark to use. + Better to not mark the function than mark the function wrong. + + +How to find PCI devices manually +================================ + +PCI drivers should have a really good reason for not using the +pci_register_driver() interface to search for PCI devices. +The main reason PCI devices are controlled by multiple drivers +is because one PCI device implements several different HW services. +E.g. combined serial/parallel port/floppy controller. + +A manual search may be performed using the following constructs: + +Searching by vendor and device ID:: + + struct pci_dev *dev = NULL; + while (dev = pci_get_device(VENDOR_ID, DEVICE_ID, dev)) + configure_device(dev); + +Searching by class ID (iterate in a similar way):: + + pci_get_class(CLASS_ID, dev) + +Searching by both vendor/device and subsystem vendor/device ID:: + + pci_get_subsys(VENDOR_ID,DEVICE_ID, SUBSYS_VENDOR_ID, SUBSYS_DEVICE_ID, dev). + +You can use the constant PCI_ANY_ID as a wildcard replacement for +VENDOR_ID or DEVICE_ID. This allows searching for any device from a +specific vendor, for example. + +These functions are hotplug-safe. They increment the reference count on +the pci_dev that they return. You must eventually (possibly at module unload) +decrement the reference count on these devices by calling pci_dev_put(). + + +Device Initialization Steps +=========================== + +As noted in the introduction, most PCI drivers need the following steps +for device initialization: + + - Enable the device + - Request MMIO/IOP resources + - Set the DMA mask size (for both coherent and streaming DMA) + - Allocate and initialize shared control data (pci_allocate_coherent()) + - Access device configuration space (if needed) + - Register IRQ handler (request_irq()) + - Initialize non-PCI (i.e. LAN/SCSI/etc parts of the chip) + - Enable DMA/processing engines. + +The driver can access PCI config space registers at any time. +(Well, almost. When running BIST, config space can go away...but +that will just result in a PCI Bus Master Abort and config reads +will return garbage). + + +Enable the PCI device +--------------------- +Before touching any device registers, the driver needs to enable +the PCI device by calling pci_enable_device(). This will: + + - wake up the device if it was in suspended state, + - allocate I/O and memory regions of the device (if BIOS did not), + - allocate an IRQ (if BIOS did not). + +.. note:: + pci_enable_device() can fail! Check the return value. + +.. warning:: + OS BUG: we don't check resource allocations before enabling those + resources. The sequence would make more sense if we called + pci_request_resources() before calling pci_enable_device(). + Currently, the device drivers can't detect the bug when two + devices have been allocated the same range. This is not a common + problem and unlikely to get fixed soon. + + This has been discussed before but not changed as of 2.6.19: + https://lore.kernel.org/r/20060302180025.GC28895@flint.arm.linux.org.uk/ + + +pci_set_master() will enable DMA by setting the bus master bit +in the PCI_COMMAND register. It also fixes the latency timer value if +it's set to something bogus by the BIOS. pci_clear_master() will +disable DMA by clearing the bus master bit. + +If the PCI device can use the PCI Memory-Write-Invalidate transaction, +call pci_set_mwi(). This enables the PCI_COMMAND bit for Mem-Wr-Inval +and also ensures that the cache line size register is set correctly. +Check the return value of pci_set_mwi() as not all architectures +or chip-sets may support Memory-Write-Invalidate. Alternatively, +if Mem-Wr-Inval would be nice to have but is not required, call +pci_try_set_mwi() to have the system do its best effort at enabling +Mem-Wr-Inval. + + +Request MMIO/IOP resources +-------------------------- +Memory (MMIO), and I/O port addresses should NOT be read directly +from the PCI device config space. Use the values in the pci_dev structure +as the PCI "bus address" might have been remapped to a "host physical" +address by the arch/chip-set specific kernel support. + +See Documentation/driver-api/io-mapping.rst for how to access device registers +or device memory. + +The device driver needs to call pci_request_region() to verify +no other device is already using the same address resource. +Conversely, drivers should call pci_release_region() AFTER +calling pci_disable_device(). +The idea is to prevent two devices colliding on the same address range. + +.. tip:: + See OS BUG comment above. Currently (2.6.19), The driver can only + determine MMIO and IO Port resource availability _after_ calling + pci_enable_device(). + +Generic flavors of pci_request_region() are request_mem_region() +(for MMIO ranges) and request_region() (for IO Port ranges). +Use these for address resources that are not described by "normal" PCI +BARs. + +Also see pci_request_selected_regions() below. + + +Set the DMA mask size +--------------------- +.. note:: + If anything below doesn't make sense, please refer to + :doc:`/core-api/dma-api`. This section is just a reminder that + drivers need to indicate DMA capabilities of the device and is not + an authoritative source for DMA interfaces. + +While all drivers should explicitly indicate the DMA capability +(e.g. 32 or 64 bit) of the PCI bus master, devices with more than +32-bit bus master capability for streaming data need the driver +to "register" this capability by calling pci_set_dma_mask() with +appropriate parameters. In general this allows more efficient DMA +on systems where System RAM exists above 4G _physical_ address. + +Drivers for all PCI-X and PCIe compliant devices must call +pci_set_dma_mask() as they are 64-bit DMA devices. + +Similarly, drivers must also "register" this capability if the device +can directly address "consistent memory" in System RAM above 4G physical +address by calling pci_set_consistent_dma_mask(). +Again, this includes drivers for all PCI-X and PCIe compliant devices. +Many 64-bit "PCI" devices (before PCI-X) and some PCI-X devices are +64-bit DMA capable for payload ("streaming") data but not control +("consistent") data. + + +Setup shared control data +------------------------- +Once the DMA masks are set, the driver can allocate "consistent" (a.k.a. shared) +memory. See :doc:`/core-api/dma-api` for a full description of +the DMA APIs. This section is just a reminder that it needs to be done +before enabling DMA on the device. + + +Initialize device registers +--------------------------- +Some drivers will need specific "capability" fields programmed +or other "vendor specific" register initialized or reset. +E.g. clearing pending interrupts. + + +Register IRQ handler +-------------------- +While calling request_irq() is the last step described here, +this is often just another intermediate step to initialize a device. +This step can often be deferred until the device is opened for use. + +All interrupt handlers for IRQ lines should be registered with IRQF_SHARED +and use the devid to map IRQs to devices (remember that all PCI IRQ lines +can be shared). + +request_irq() will associate an interrupt handler and device handle +with an interrupt number. Historically interrupt numbers represent +IRQ lines which run from the PCI device to the Interrupt controller. +With MSI and MSI-X (more below) the interrupt number is a CPU "vector". + +request_irq() also enables the interrupt. Make sure the device is +quiesced and does not have any interrupts pending before registering +the interrupt handler. + +MSI and MSI-X are PCI capabilities. Both are "Message Signaled Interrupts" +which deliver interrupts to the CPU via a DMA write to a Local APIC. +The fundamental difference between MSI and MSI-X is how multiple +"vectors" get allocated. MSI requires contiguous blocks of vectors +while MSI-X can allocate several individual ones. + +MSI capability can be enabled by calling pci_alloc_irq_vectors() with the +PCI_IRQ_MSI and/or PCI_IRQ_MSIX flags before calling request_irq(). This +causes the PCI support to program CPU vector data into the PCI device +capability registers. Many architectures, chip-sets, or BIOSes do NOT +support MSI or MSI-X and a call to pci_alloc_irq_vectors with just +the PCI_IRQ_MSI and PCI_IRQ_MSIX flags will fail, so try to always +specify PCI_IRQ_LEGACY as well. + +Drivers that have different interrupt handlers for MSI/MSI-X and +legacy INTx should chose the right one based on the msi_enabled +and msix_enabled flags in the pci_dev structure after calling +pci_alloc_irq_vectors. + +There are (at least) two really good reasons for using MSI: + +1) MSI is an exclusive interrupt vector by definition. + This means the interrupt handler doesn't have to verify + its device caused the interrupt. + +2) MSI avoids DMA/IRQ race conditions. DMA to host memory is guaranteed + to be visible to the host CPU(s) when the MSI is delivered. This + is important for both data coherency and avoiding stale control data. + This guarantee allows the driver to omit MMIO reads to flush + the DMA stream. + +See drivers/infiniband/hw/mthca/ or drivers/net/tg3.c for examples +of MSI/MSI-X usage. + + +PCI device shutdown +=================== + +When a PCI device driver is being unloaded, most of the following +steps need to be performed: + + - Disable the device from generating IRQs + - Release the IRQ (free_irq()) + - Stop all DMA activity + - Release DMA buffers (both streaming and consistent) + - Unregister from other subsystems (e.g. scsi or netdev) + - Disable device from responding to MMIO/IO Port addresses + - Release MMIO/IO Port resource(s) + + +Stop IRQs on the device +----------------------- +How to do this is chip/device specific. If it's not done, it opens +the possibility of a "screaming interrupt" if (and only if) +the IRQ is shared with another device. + +When the shared IRQ handler is "unhooked", the remaining devices +using the same IRQ line will still need the IRQ enabled. Thus if the +"unhooked" device asserts IRQ line, the system will respond assuming +it was one of the remaining devices asserted the IRQ line. Since none +of the other devices will handle the IRQ, the system will "hang" until +it decides the IRQ isn't going to get handled and masks the IRQ (100,000 +iterations later). Once the shared IRQ is masked, the remaining devices +will stop functioning properly. Not a nice situation. + +This is another reason to use MSI or MSI-X if it's available. +MSI and MSI-X are defined to be exclusive interrupts and thus +are not susceptible to the "screaming interrupt" problem. + + +Release the IRQ +--------------- +Once the device is quiesced (no more IRQs), one can call free_irq(). +This function will return control once any pending IRQs are handled, +"unhook" the drivers IRQ handler from that IRQ, and finally release +the IRQ if no one else is using it. + + +Stop all DMA activity +--------------------- +It's extremely important to stop all DMA operations BEFORE attempting +to deallocate DMA control data. Failure to do so can result in memory +corruption, hangs, and on some chip-sets a hard crash. + +Stopping DMA after stopping the IRQs can avoid races where the +IRQ handler might restart DMA engines. + +While this step sounds obvious and trivial, several "mature" drivers +didn't get this step right in the past. + + +Release DMA buffers +------------------- +Once DMA is stopped, clean up streaming DMA first. +I.e. unmap data buffers and return buffers to "upstream" +owners if there is one. + +Then clean up "consistent" buffers which contain the control data. + +See :doc:`/core-api/dma-api` for details on unmapping interfaces. + + +Unregister from other subsystems +-------------------------------- +Most low level PCI device drivers support some other subsystem +like USB, ALSA, SCSI, NetDev, Infiniband, etc. Make sure your +driver isn't losing resources from that other subsystem. +If this happens, typically the symptom is an Oops (panic) when +the subsystem attempts to call into a driver that has been unloaded. + + +Disable Device from responding to MMIO/IO Port addresses +-------------------------------------------------------- +io_unmap() MMIO or IO Port resources and then call pci_disable_device(). +This is the symmetric opposite of pci_enable_device(). +Do not access device registers after calling pci_disable_device(). + + +Release MMIO/IO Port Resource(s) +-------------------------------- +Call pci_release_region() to mark the MMIO or IO Port range as available. +Failure to do so usually results in the inability to reload the driver. + + +How to access PCI config space +============================== + +You can use `pci_(read|write)_config_(byte|word|dword)` to access the config +space of a device represented by `struct pci_dev *`. All these functions return +0 when successful or an error code (`PCIBIOS_...`) which can be translated to a +text string by pcibios_strerror. Most drivers expect that accesses to valid PCI +devices don't fail. + +If you don't have a struct pci_dev available, you can call +`pci_bus_(read|write)_config_(byte|word|dword)` to access a given device +and function on that bus. + +If you access fields in the standard portion of the config header, please +use symbolic names of locations and bits declared in <linux/pci.h>. + +If you need to access Extended PCI Capability registers, just call +pci_find_capability() for the particular capability and it will find the +corresponding register block for you. + + +Other interesting functions +=========================== + +============================= ================================================ +pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() Find pci_dev corresponding to given domain, + bus and slot and number. If the device is + found, its reference count is increased. +pci_set_power_state() Set PCI Power Management state (0=D0 ... 3=D3) +pci_find_capability() Find specified capability in device's capability + list. +pci_resource_start() Returns bus start address for a given PCI region +pci_resource_end() Returns bus end address for a given PCI region +pci_resource_len() Returns the byte length of a PCI region +pci_set_drvdata() Set private driver data pointer for a pci_dev +pci_get_drvdata() Return private driver data pointer for a pci_dev +pci_set_mwi() Enable Memory-Write-Invalidate transactions. +pci_clear_mwi() Disable Memory-Write-Invalidate transactions. +============================= ================================================ + + +Miscellaneous hints +=================== + +When displaying PCI device names to the user (for example when a driver wants +to tell the user what card has it found), please use pci_name(pci_dev). + +Always refer to the PCI devices by a pointer to the pci_dev structure. +All PCI layer functions use this identification and it's the only +reasonable one. Don't use bus/slot/function numbers except for very +special purposes -- on systems with multiple primary buses their semantics +can be pretty complex. + +Don't try to turn on Fast Back to Back writes in your driver. All devices +on the bus need to be capable of doing it, so this is something which needs +to be handled by platform and generic code, not individual drivers. + + +Vendor and device identifications +================================= + +Do not add new device or vendor IDs to include/linux/pci_ids.h unless they +are shared across multiple drivers. You can add private definitions in +your driver if they're helpful, or just use plain hex constants. + +The device IDs are arbitrary hex numbers (vendor controlled) and normally used +only in a single location, the pci_device_id table. + +Please DO submit new vendor/device IDs to https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/. +There's a mirror of the pci.ids file at https://github.com/pciutils/pciids. + + +Obsolete functions +================== + +There are several functions which you might come across when trying to +port an old driver to the new PCI interface. They are no longer present +in the kernel as they aren't compatible with hotplug or PCI domains or +having sane locking. + +================= =========================================== +pci_find_device() Superseded by pci_get_device() +pci_find_subsys() Superseded by pci_get_subsys() +pci_find_slot() Superseded by pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() +pci_get_slot() Superseded by pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() +================= =========================================== + +The alternative is the traditional PCI device driver that walks PCI +device lists. This is still possible but discouraged. + + +MMIO Space and "Write Posting" +============================== + +Converting a driver from using I/O Port space to using MMIO space +often requires some additional changes. Specifically, "write posting" +needs to be handled. Many drivers (e.g. tg3, acenic, sym53c8xx_2) +already do this. I/O Port space guarantees write transactions reach the PCI +device before the CPU can continue. Writes to MMIO space allow the CPU +to continue before the transaction reaches the PCI device. HW weenies +call this "Write Posting" because the write completion is "posted" to +the CPU before the transaction has reached its destination. + +Thus, timing sensitive code should add readl() where the CPU is +expected to wait before doing other work. The classic "bit banging" +sequence works fine for I/O Port space:: + + for (i = 8; --i; val >>= 1) { + outb(val & 1, ioport_reg); /* write bit */ + udelay(10); + } + +The same sequence for MMIO space should be:: + + for (i = 8; --i; val >>= 1) { + writeb(val & 1, mmio_reg); /* write bit */ + readb(safe_mmio_reg); /* flush posted write */ + udelay(10); + } + +It is important that "safe_mmio_reg" not have any side effects that +interferes with the correct operation of the device. + +Another case to watch out for is when resetting a PCI device. Use PCI +Configuration space reads to flush the writel(). This will gracefully +handle the PCI master abort on all platforms if the PCI device is +expected to not respond to a readl(). Most x86 platforms will allow +MMIO reads to master abort (a.k.a. "Soft Fail") and return garbage +(e.g. ~0). But many RISC platforms will crash (a.k.a."Hard Fail"). diff --git a/Documentation/PCI/pcieaer-howto.rst b/Documentation/PCI/pcieaer-howto.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..0b36b9ebf --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/PCI/pcieaer-howto.rst @@ -0,0 +1,300 @@ +..

Long Nguyen <tom.l.nguyen@intel.com> + - Yanmin Zhang <yanmin.zhang@intel.com> + +:Copyright: |copy| 2006 Intel Corporation + +Overview +=========== + +About this guide +---------------- + +This guide describes the basics of the PCI Express Advanced Error +Reporting (AER) driver and provides information on how to use it, as +well as how to enable the drivers of endpoint devices to conform with +PCI Express AER driver. + + +What is the PCI Express AER Driver? +----------------------------------- + +PCI Express error signaling can occur on the PCI Express link itself +or on behalf of transactions initiated on the link. PCI Express +defines two error reporting paradigms: the baseline capability and +the Advanced Error Reporting capability. The baseline capability is +required of all PCI Express components providing a minimum defined +set of error reporting requirements. Advanced Error Reporting +capability is implemented with a PCI Express advanced error reporting +extended capability structure providing more robust error reporting. + +The PCI Express AER driver provides the infrastructure to support PCI +Express Advanced Error Reporting capability. The PCI Express AER +driver provides three basic functions: + + - Gathers the comprehensive error information if errors occurred. + - Reports error to the users. + - Performs error recovery actions. + +AER driver only attaches root ports which support PCI-Express AER +capability. + + +User Guide +========== + +Include the PCI Express AER Root Driver into the Linux Kernel +------------------------------------------------------------- + +The PCI Express AER Root driver is a Root Port service driver attached +to the PCI Express Port Bus driver. If a user wants to use it, the driver +has to be compiled. Option CONFIG_PCIEAER supports this capability. It +depends on CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS, so pls. set CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS=y and +CONFIG_PCIEAER = y. + +Load PCI Express AER Root Driver +-------------------------------- + +Some systems have AER support in firmware. Enabling Linux AER support at +the same time the firmware handles AER may result in unpredictable +behavior. Therefore, Linux does not handle AER events unless the firmware +grants AER control to the OS via the ACPI _OSC method. See the PCI FW 3.0 +Specification for details regarding _OSC usage. + +AER error output +---------------- + +When a PCIe AER error is captured, an error message will be output to +console. If it's a correctable error, it is output as a warning. +Otherwise, it is printed as an error. So users could choose different +log level to filter out correctable error messages. + +Below shows an example:: + + 0000:50:00.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Uncorrected (Fatal), type=Transaction Layer, id=0500(Requester ID) + 0000:50:00.0: device [8086:0329] error status/mask=00100000/00000000 + 0000:50:00.0: [20] Unsupported Request (First) + 0000:50:00.0: TLP Header: 04000001 00200a03 05010000 00050100 + +In the example, 'Requester ID' means the ID of the device who sends +the error message to root port. Pls. refer to pci express specs for +other fields. + +AER Statistics / Counters +------------------------- + +When PCIe AER errors are captured, the counters / statistics are also exposed +in the form of sysfs attributes which are documented at +Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci-devices-aer_stats + +Developer Guide +=============== + +To enable AER aware support requires a software driver to configure +the AER capability structure within its device and to provide callbacks. + +To support AER better, developers need understand how AER does work +firstly. + +PCI Express errors are classified into two types: correctable errors +and uncorrectable errors. This classification is based on the impacts +of those errors, which may result in degraded performance or function +failure. + +Correctable errors pose no impacts on the functionality of the +interface. The PCI Express protocol can recover without any software +intervention or any loss of data. These errors are detected and +corrected by hardware. Unlike correctable errors, uncorrectable +errors impact functionality of the interface. Uncorrectable errors +can cause a particular transaction or a particular PCI Express link +to be unreliable. Depending on those error conditions, uncorrectable +errors are further classified into non-fatal errors and fatal errors. +Non-fatal errors cause the particular transaction to be unreliable, +but the PCI Express link itself is fully functional. Fatal errors, on +the other hand, cause the link to be unreliable. + +When AER is enabled, a PCI Express device will automatically send an +error message to the PCIe root port above it when the device captures +an error. The Root Port, upon receiving an error reporting message, +internally processes and logs the error message in its PCI Express +capability structure. Error information being logged includes storing +the error reporting agent's requestor ID into the Error Source +Identification Registers and setting the error bits of the Root Error +Status Register accordingly. If AER error reporting is enabled in Root +Error Command Register, the Root Port generates an interrupt if an +error is detected. + +Note that the errors as described above are related to the PCI Express +hierarchy and links. These errors do not include any device specific +errors because device specific errors will still get sent directly to +the device driver. + +Configure the AER capability structure +-------------------------------------- + +AER aware drivers of PCI Express component need change the device +control registers to enable AER. They also could change AER registers, +including mask and severity registers. Helper function +pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting could be used to enable AER. See +section 3.3. + +Provide callbacks +----------------- + +callback reset_link to reset pci express link +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +This callback is used to reset the pci express physical link when a +fatal error happens. The root port aer service driver provides a +default reset_link function, but different upstream ports might +have different specifications to reset pci express link, so all +upstream ports should provide their own reset_link functions. + +Section 3.2.2.2 provides more detailed info on when to call +reset_link. + +PCI error-recovery callbacks +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The PCI Express AER Root driver uses error callbacks to coordinate +with downstream device drivers associated with a hierarchy in question +when performing error recovery actions. + +Data struct pci_driver has a pointer, err_handler, to point to +pci_error_handlers who consists of a couple of callback function +pointers. AER driver follows the rules defined in +pci-error-recovery.txt except pci express specific parts (e.g. +reset_link). Pls. refer to pci-error-recovery.txt for detailed +definitions of the callbacks. + +Below sections specify when to call the error callback functions. + +Correctable errors +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Correctable errors pose no impacts on the functionality of +the interface. The PCI Express protocol can recover without any +software intervention or any loss of data. These errors do not +require any recovery actions. The AER driver clears the device's +correctable error status register accordingly and logs these errors. + +Non-correctable (non-fatal and fatal) errors +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +If an error message indicates a non-fatal error, performing link reset +at upstream is not required. The AER driver calls error_detected(dev, +pci_channel_io_normal) to all drivers associated within a hierarchy in +question. for example:: + + EndPoint<==>DownstreamPort B<==>UpstreamPort A<==>RootPort + +If Upstream port A captures an AER error, the hierarchy consists of +Downstream port B and EndPoint. + +A driver may return PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER, +PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT, or PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET, depending on +whether it can recover or the AER driver calls mmio_enabled as next. + +If an error message indicates a fatal error, kernel will broadcast +error_detected(dev, pci_channel_io_frozen) to all drivers within +a hierarchy in question. Then, performing link reset at upstream is +necessary. As different kinds of devices might use different approaches +to reset link, AER port service driver is required to provide the +function to reset link via callback parameter of pcie_do_recovery() +function. If reset_link is not NULL, recovery function will use it +to reset the link. If error_detected returns PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER +and reset_link returns PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED, the error handling goes +to mmio_enabled. + +helper functions +---------------- +:: + + int pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting(struct pci_dev *dev); + +pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting enables the device to send error +messages to root port when an error is detected. Note that devices +don't enable the error reporting by default, so device drivers need +call this function to enable it. + +:: + + int pci_disable_pcie_error_reporting(struct pci_dev *dev); + +pci_disable_pcie_error_reporting disables the device to send error +messages to root port when an error is detected. + +:: + + int pci_aer_clear_nonfatal_status(struct pci_dev *dev);` + +pci_aer_clear_nonfatal_status clears non-fatal errors in the uncorrectable +error status register. + +Frequent Asked Questions +------------------------ + +Q: + What happens if a PCI Express device driver does not provide an + error recovery handler (pci_driver->err_handler is equal to NULL)? + +A: + The devices attached with the driver won't be recovered. If the + error is fatal, kernel will print out warning messages. Please refer + to section 3 for more information. + +Q: + What happens if an upstream port service driver does not provide + callback reset_link? + +A: + Fatal error recovery will fail if the errors are reported by the + upstream ports who are attached by the service driver. + +Q: + How does this infrastructure deal with driver that is not PCI + Express aware? + +A: + This infrastructure calls the error callback functions of the + driver when an error happens. But if the driver is not aware of + PCI Express, the device might not report its own errors to root + port. + +Q: + What modifications will that driver need to make it compatible + with the PCI Express AER Root driver? + +A: + It could call the helper functions to enable AER in devices and + cleanup uncorrectable status register. Pls. refer to section 3.3. + + +Software error injection +======================== + +Debugging PCIe AER error recovery code is quite difficult because it +is hard to trigger real hardware errors. Software based error +injection can be used to fake various kinds of PCIe errors. + +First you should enable PCIe AER software error injection in kernel +configuration, that is, following item should be in your .config. + +CONFIG_PCIEAER_INJECT=y or CONFIG_PCIEAER_INJECT=m + +After reboot with new kernel or insert the module, a device file named +/dev/aer_inject should be created. + +Then, you need a user space tool named aer-inject, which can be gotten +from: + + https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/gong.chen/aer-inject.git/ + +More information about aer-inject can be found in the document comes +with its source code. diff --git a/Documentation/PCI/pciebus-howto.rst b/Documentation/PCI/pciebus-howto.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..f882ff62c --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/PCI/pciebus-howto.rst @@ -0,0 +1,220 @@ +..

There +are two types of PCI Express Port: the Root Port and the Switch +Port. The Root Port originates a PCI Express link from a PCI Express +Root Complex and the Switch Port connects PCI Express links to +internal logical PCI buses. The Switch Port, which has its secondary +bus representing the switch's internal routing logic, is called the +switch's Upstream Port. The switch's Downstream Port is bridging from +switch's internal routing bus to a bus representing the downstream +PCI Express link from the PCI Express Switch. + +A PCI Express Port can provide up to four distinct functions, +referred to in this document as services, depending on its port type. +PCI Express Port's services include native hotplug support (HP), +power management event support (PME), advanced error reporting +support (AER), and virtual channel support (VC). These services may +be handled by a single complex driver or be individually distributed +and handled by corresponding service drivers. + +Why use the PCI Express Port Bus Driver? +======================================== + +In existing Linux kernels, the Linux Device Driver Model allows a +physical device to be handled by only a single driver. The PCI +Express Port is a PCI-PCI Bridge device with multiple distinct +services. To maintain a clean and simple solution each service +may have its own software service driver. In this case several +service drivers will compete for a single PCI-PCI Bridge device. +For example, if the PCI Express Root Port native hotplug service +driver is loaded first, it claims a PCI-PCI Bridge Root Port. The +kernel therefore does not load other service drivers for that Root +Port. In other words, it is impossible to have multiple service +drivers load and run on a PCI-PCI Bridge device simultaneously +using the current driver model. + +To enable multiple service drivers running simultaneously requires +having a PCI Express Port Bus driver, which manages all populated +PCI Express Ports and distributes all provided service requests +to the corresponding service drivers as required. Some key +advantages of using the PCI Express Port Bus driver are listed below: + + - Allow multiple service drivers to run simultaneously on + a PCI-PCI Bridge Port device. + + - Allow service drivers implemented in an independent + staged approach. + + - Allow one service driver to run on multiple PCI-PCI Bridge + Port devices. + + - Manage and distribute resources of a PCI-PCI Bridge Port + device to requested service drivers. + +Configuring the PCI Express Port Bus Driver vs. Service Drivers +=============================================================== + +Including the PCI Express Port Bus Driver Support into the Kernel +----------------------------------------------------------------- + +Including the PCI Express Port Bus driver depends on whether the PCI +Express support is included in the kernel config. The kernel will +automatically include the PCI Express Port Bus driver as a kernel +driver when the PCI Express support is enabled in the kernel. + +Enabling Service Driver Support +------------------------------- + +PCI device drivers are implemented based on Linux Device Driver Model. +All service drivers are PCI device drivers. As discussed above, it is +impossible to load any service driver once the kernel has loaded the +PCI Express Port Bus Driver. To meet the PCI Express Port Bus Driver +Model requires some minimal changes on existing service drivers that +imposes no impact on the functionality of existing service drivers. + +A service driver is required to use the two APIs shown below to +register its service with the PCI Express Port Bus driver (see +section 5.2.1 & 5.2.2). It is important that a service driver +initializes the pcie_port_service_driver data structure, included in +header file /include/linux/pcieport_if.h, before calling these APIs. +Failure to do so will result an identity mismatch, which prevents +the PCI Express Port Bus driver from loading a service driver. + +pcie_port_service_register +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +:: + + int pcie_port_service_register(struct pcie_port_service_driver *new) + +This API replaces the Linux Driver Model's pci_register_driver API. A +service driver should always calls pcie_port_service_register at +module init. Note that after service driver being loaded, calls +such as pci_enable_device(dev) and pci_set_master(dev) are no longer +necessary since these calls are executed by the PCI Port Bus driver. + +pcie_port_service_unregister +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +:: + + void pcie_port_service_unregister(struct pcie_port_service_driver *new) + +pcie_port_service_unregister replaces the Linux Driver Model's +pci_unregister_driver. It's always called by service driver when a +module exits. + +Sample Code +~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Below is sample service driver code to initialize the port service +driver data structure. +:: + + static struct pcie_port_service_id service_id[] = { { + .vendor = PCI_ANY_ID, + .device = PCI_ANY_ID, + .port_type = PCIE_RC_PORT, + .service_type = PCIE_PORT_SERVICE_AER, + }, { /* end: all zeroes */ } + }; + + static struct pcie_port_service_driver root_aerdrv = { + .name = (char *)device_name, + .id_table = &service_id[0], + + .probe = aerdrv_load, + .remove = aerdrv_unload, + + .suspend = aerdrv_suspend, + .resume = aerdrv_resume, + }; + +Below is a sample code for registering/unregistering a service +driver. +:: + + static int __init aerdrv_service_init(void) + { + int retval = 0; + + retval = pcie_port_service_register(&root_aerdrv); + if (!retval) { + /* + * FIX ME + */ + } + return retval; + } + + static void __exit aerdrv_service_exit(void) + { + pcie_port_service_unregister(&root_aerdrv); + } + + module_init(aerdrv_service_init); + module_exit(aerdrv_service_exit); + +Possible Resource Conflicts +=========================== + +Since all service drivers of a PCI-PCI Bridge Port device are +allowed to run simultaneously, below lists a few of possible resource +conflicts with proposed solutions. + +MSI and MSI-X Vector Resource +----------------------------- + +Once MSI or MSI-X interrupts are enabled on a device, it stays in this +mode until they are disabled again. Since service drivers of the same +PCI-PCI Bridge port share the same physical device, if an individual +service driver enables or disables MSI/MSI-X mode it may result +unpredictable behavior. + +To avoid this situation all service drivers are not permitted to +switch interrupt mode on its device. The PCI Express Port Bus driver +is responsible for determining the interrupt mode and this should be +transparent to service drivers. Service drivers need to know only +the vector IRQ assigned to the field irq of struct pcie_device, which +is passed in when the PCI Express Port Bus driver probes each service +driver. Service drivers should use (struct pcie_device*)dev->irq to +call request_irq/free_irq. In addition, the interrupt mode is stored +in the field interrupt_mode of struct pcie_device. + +PCI Memory/IO Mapped Regions +---------------------------- + +Service drivers for PCI Express Power Management (PME), Advanced +Error Reporting (AER), Hot-Plug (HP) and Virtual Channel (VC) access +PCI configuration space on the PCI Express port. In all cases the +registers accessed are independent of each other. This patch assumes +that all service drivers will be well behaved and not overwrite +other service driver's configuration settings. + +PCI Config Registers +-------------------- + +Each service driver runs its PCI config operations on its own +capability structure except the PCI Express capability structure, in +which Root Control register and Device Control register are shared +between PME and AER. This patch assumes that all service drivers +will be well behaved and not overwrite other service driver's +configuration settings. diff --git a/Documentation/PCI/sysfs-pci.rst b/Documentation/PCI/sysfs-pci.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..742fbd21d --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/PCI/sysfs-pci.rst @@ -0,0 +1,138 @@ +.. SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +============================================ +Accessing PCI device resources through sysfs +============================================ + +sysfs, usually mounted at /sys, provides access to PCI resources on platforms +that support it.

[1] rw for IORESOURCE_IO (I/O port) regions only + +The read only files are informational, writes to them will be ignored, with +the exception of the 'rom' file. Writable files can be used to perform +actions on the device (e.g. changing config space, detaching a device). +mmapable files are available via an mmap of the file at offset 0 and can be +used to do actual device programming from userspace. Note that some platforms +don't support mmapping of certain resources, so be sure to check the return +value from any attempted mmap. The most notable of these are I/O port +resources, which also provide read/write access. + +The 'enable' file provides a counter that indicates how many times the device +has been enabled. If the 'enable' file currently returns '4', and a '1' is +echoed into it, it will then return '5'. Echoing a '0' into it will decrease +the count. Even when it returns to 0, though, some of the initialisation +may not be reversed. + +The 'rom' file is special in that it provides read-only access to the device's +ROM file, if available. It's disabled by default, however, so applications +should write the string "1" to the file to enable it before attempting a read +call, and disable it following the access by writing "0" to the file. Note +that the device must be enabled for a rom read to return data successfully. +In the event a driver is not bound to the device, it can be enabled using the +'enable' file, documented above. + +The 'remove' file is used to remove the PCI device, by writing a non-zero +integer to the file. This does not involve any kind of hot-plug functionality, +e.g. powering off the device. The device is removed from the kernel's list of +PCI devices, the sysfs directory for it is removed, and the device will be +removed from any drivers attached to it. Removal of PCI root buses is +disallowed. + +Accessing legacy resources through sysfs +---------------------------------------- + +Legacy I/O port and ISA memory resources are also provided in sysfs if the +underlying platform supports them. They're located in the PCI class hierarchy, +e.g.:: + + /sys/class/pci_bus/0000:17/ + |-- bridge -> ../../../devices/pci0000:17 + |-- cpuaffinity + |-- legacy_io + `-- legacy_mem + +The legacy_io file is a read/write file that can be used by applications to +do legacy port I/O. The application should open the file, seek to the desired +port (e.g. 0x3e8) and do a read or a write of 1, 2 or 4 bytes. The legacy_mem +file should be mmapped with an offset corresponding to the memory offset +desired, e.g. 0xa0000 for the VGA frame buffer. The application can then +simply dereference the returned pointer (after checking for errors of course) +to access legacy memory space. + +Supporting PCI access on new platforms +-------------------------------------- + +In order to support PCI resource mapping as described above, Linux platform +code should ideally define ARCH_GENERIC_PCI_MMAP_RESOURCE and use the generic +implementation of that functionality. To support the historical interface of +mmap() through files in /proc/bus/pci, platforms may also set HAVE_PCI_MMAP. + +Alternatively, platforms which set HAVE_PCI_MMAP may provide their own +implementation of pci_mmap_page_range() instead of defining +ARCH_GENERIC_PCI_MMAP_RESOURCE. + +Platforms which support write-combining maps of PCI resources must define +arch_can_pci_mmap_wc() which shall evaluate to non-zero at runtime when +write-combining is permitted. Platforms which support maps of I/O resources +define arch_can_pci_mmap_io() similarly. + +Legacy resources are protected by the HAVE_PCI_LEGACY define. Platforms +wishing to support legacy functionality should define it and provide +pci_legacy_read, pci_legacy_write and pci_mmap_legacy_page_range functions. |
