It contains some amount of volatile memory, persistent memory, +or both. It is enumerated as a PCI device for configuration and passing +messages over an MMIO mailbox. Its contribution to the System Physical +Address space is handled via HDM (Host Managed Device Memory) decoders +that optionally define a device's contribution to an interleaved address +range across multiple devices underneath a host-bridge or interleaved +across host-bridges. + +CXL Bus: Theory of Operation +============================ +Similar to how a RAID driver takes disk objects and assembles them into a new +logical device, the CXL subsystem is tasked to take PCIe and ACPI objects and +assemble them into a CXL.mem decode topology. The need for runtime configuration +of the CXL.mem topology is also similar to RAID in that different environments +with the same hardware configuration may decide to assemble the topology in +contrasting ways. One may choose performance (RAID0) striping memory across +multiple Host Bridges and endpoints while another may opt for fault tolerance +and disable any striping in the CXL.mem topology. + +Platform firmware enumerates a menu of interleave options at the "CXL root port" +(Linux term for the top of the CXL decode topology). From there, PCIe topology +dictates which endpoints can participate in which Host Bridge decode regimes. +Each PCIe Switch in the path between the root and an endpoint introduces a point +at which the interleave can be split. For example platform firmware may say at a +given range only decodes to 1 one Host Bridge, but that Host Bridge may in turn +interleave cycles across multiple Root Ports. An intervening Switch between a +port and an endpoint may interleave cycles across multiple Downstream Switch +Ports, etc. + +Here is a sample listing of a CXL topology defined by 'cxl_test'. The 'cxl_test' +module generates an emulated CXL topology of 2 Host Bridges each with 2 Root +Ports. Each of those Root Ports are connected to 2-way switches with endpoints +connected to those downstream ports for a total of 8 endpoints:: + + # cxl list -BEMPu -b cxl_test + { + "bus":"root3", + "provider":"cxl_test", + "ports:root3":[ + { + "port":"port5", + "host":"cxl_host_bridge.1", + "ports:port5":[ + { + "port":"port8", + "host":"cxl_switch_uport.1", + "endpoints:port8":[ + { + "endpoint":"endpoint9", + "host":"mem2", + "memdev":{ + "memdev":"mem2", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x1", + "numa_node":1, + "host":"cxl_mem.1" + } + }, + { + "endpoint":"endpoint15", + "host":"mem6", + "memdev":{ + "memdev":"mem6", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x5", + "numa_node":1, + "host":"cxl_mem.5" + } + } + ] + }, + { + "port":"port12", + "host":"cxl_switch_uport.3", + "endpoints:port12":[ + { + "endpoint":"endpoint17", + "host":"mem8", + "memdev":{ + "memdev":"mem8", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x7", + "numa_node":1, + "host":"cxl_mem.7" + } + }, + { + "endpoint":"endpoint13", + "host":"mem4", + "memdev":{ + "memdev":"mem4", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x3", + "numa_node":1, + "host":"cxl_mem.3" + } + } + ] + } + ] + }, + { + "port":"port4", + "host":"cxl_host_bridge.0", + "ports:port4":[ + { + "port":"port6", + "host":"cxl_switch_uport.0", + "endpoints:port6":[ + { + "endpoint":"endpoint7", + "host":"mem1", + "memdev":{ + "memdev":"mem1", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.0" + } + }, + { + "endpoint":"endpoint14", + "host":"mem5", + "memdev":{ + "memdev":"mem5", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x4", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.4" + } + } + ] + }, + { + "port":"port10", + "host":"cxl_switch_uport.2", + "endpoints:port10":[ + { + "endpoint":"endpoint16", + "host":"mem7", + "memdev":{ + "memdev":"mem7", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x6", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.6" + } + }, + { + "endpoint":"endpoint11", + "host":"mem3", + "memdev":{ + "memdev":"mem3", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x2", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.2" + } + } + ] + } + ] + } + ] + } + +In that listing each "root", "port", and "endpoint" object correspond a kernel +'struct cxl_port' object. A 'cxl_port' is a device that can decode CXL.mem to +its descendants. So "root" claims non-PCIe enumerable platform decode ranges and +decodes them to "ports", "ports" decode to "endpoints", and "endpoints" +represent the decode from SPA (System Physical Address) to DPA (Device Physical +Address). + +Continuing the RAID analogy, disks have both topology metadata and on device +metadata that determine RAID set assembly. CXL Port topology and CXL Port link +status is metadata for CXL.mem set assembly. The CXL Port topology is enumerated +by the arrival of a CXL.mem device. I.e. unless and until the PCIe core attaches +the cxl_pci driver to a CXL Memory Expander there is no role for CXL Port +objects. Conversely for hot-unplug / removal scenarios, there is no need for +the Linux PCI core to tear down switch-level CXL resources because the endpoint +->remove() event cleans up the port data that was established to support that +Memory Expander. + +The port metadata and potential decode schemes that a give memory device may +participate can be determined via a command like:: + + # cxl list -BDMu -d root -m mem3 + { + "bus":"root3", + "provider":"cxl_test", + "decoders:root3":[ + { + "decoder":"decoder3.1", + "resource":"0x8030000000", + "size":"512.00 MiB (536.87 MB)", + "volatile_capable":true, + "nr_targets":2 + }, + { + "decoder":"decoder3.3", + "resource":"0x8060000000", + "size":"512.00 MiB (536.87 MB)", + "pmem_capable":true, + "nr_targets":2 + }, + { + "decoder":"decoder3.0", + "resource":"0x8020000000", + "size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "volatile_capable":true, + "nr_targets":1 + }, + { + "decoder":"decoder3.2", + "resource":"0x8050000000", + "size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "pmem_capable":true, + "nr_targets":1 + } + ], + "memdevs:root3":[ + { + "memdev":"mem3", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x2", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.2" + } + ] + } + +...which queries the CXL topology to ask "given CXL Memory Expander with a kernel +device name of 'mem3' which platform level decode ranges may this device +participate". A given expander can participate in multiple CXL.mem interleave +sets simultaneously depending on how many decoder resource it has. In this +example mem3 can participate in one or more of a PMEM interleave that spans to +Host Bridges, a PMEM interleave that targets a single Host Bridge, a Volatile +memory interleave that spans 2 Host Bridges, and a Volatile memory interleave +that only targets a single Host Bridge. + +Conversely the memory devices that can participate in a given platform level +decode scheme can be determined via a command like the following:: + + # cxl list -MDu -d 3.2 + [ + { + "memdevs":[ + { + "memdev":"mem1", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.0" + }, + { + "memdev":"mem5", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x4", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.4" + }, + { + "memdev":"mem7", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x6", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.6" + }, + { + "memdev":"mem3", + "pmem_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "ram_size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "serial":"0x2", + "numa_node":0, + "host":"cxl_mem.2" + } + ] + }, + { + "root decoders":[ + { + "decoder":"decoder3.2", + "resource":"0x8050000000", + "size":"256.00 MiB (268.44 MB)", + "pmem_capable":true, + "nr_targets":1 + } + ] + } + ] + +...where the naming scheme for decoders is "decoder.". + +Driver Infrastructure +===================== + +This section covers the driver infrastructure for a CXL memory device. + +CXL Memory Device +----------------- + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/pci.c + :doc: cxl pci + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/pci.c + :internal: + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/mem.c + :doc: cxl mem + +CXL Port +-------- +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/port.c + :doc: cxl port + +CXL Core +-------- +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/cxl.h + :doc: cxl objects + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/cxl.h + :internal: + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/port.c + :doc: cxl core + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/port.c + :identifiers: + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/pci.c + :doc: cxl core pci + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/pci.c + :identifiers: + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/pmem.c + :doc: cxl pmem + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/regs.c + :doc: cxl registers + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/mbox.c + :doc: cxl mbox + +CXL Regions +----------- +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/region.c + :doc: cxl core region + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/cxl/core/region.c + :identifiers: + +External Interfaces +=================== + +CXL IOCTL Interface +------------------- + +.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/linux/cxl_mem.h + :doc: UAPI + +.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/linux/cxl_mem.h + :internal: -- cgit v1.2.3
