<id>urn:sha1:197267d0356004a31c4d6b6336598f5dff3301e1</id>
<content type='text'>
cxl keeps a driver use count, which is used with the hash memory model
on p8 to know when to upgrade local TLBIs to global and to trigger
callbacks to manage the MMU for PSL8.

If a process opens a context and closes without attaching or fails the
attachment, the driver use count is never decremented. As a
consequence, TLB invalidations remain global, even if there are no
active cxl contexts.

We should increment the driver use count when the process is attaching
to the cxl adapter, and not on open. It's not needed before the
adapter starts using the context and the use count is decremented on
the detach path, so it makes more sense.

It affects only the user api. The kernel api is already doing The
Right Thing.

<title>cxl: Keep track of mm struct associated with a context</title>

<content type='text'>
The mm_struct corresponding to the current task is acquired each time
an interrupt is raised. So to simplify the code, we only get the
mm_struct when attaching an AFU context to the process.
The mm_count reference is increased to ensure that the mm_struct can't
be freed. The mm_struct will be released when the context is detached.
A reference on mm_users is not kept to avoid a circular dependency if
the process mmaps its cxl mmio and forget to unmap before exiting.
The field glpid (pid of the group leader associated with the pid), of
the structure cxl_context, is removed because it's no longer useful.

from an AFU driver (e.g. cxlflash) through the cxl_get_fd() API, the
following error occurs:

The root cause is that the address_space structure for the file
doesn't define a 'host' member.

When cxl allocates a file descriptor, it's using the anonymous inode
to back the file, but allocates a private address_space for each
context. The private address_space allows to track memory allocation
for each context. cxl doesn't define the 'host' member of the address
space, i.e. the inode. We don't want to define it as the anonymous
inode, since there's no longer a 1-to-1 relation between address_space
and inode.

To fix it, instead of using the anonymous inode, we introduce a simple
pseudo filesystem so that cxl can allocate its own inodes. So we now
have one inode for each file and address_space. The pseudo filesystem
is only mounted on the first allocation of a file descriptor by
cxl_get_fd().

Tested with cxlflash.

'cxl_context_alloc()' does not return an error pointer. It is just a
shortcut for a call to 'kzalloc' with 'sizeof(struct cxl_context)' as the
size parameter.

So its return value should be compared with NULL.
While fixing it, simplify a bit the code.

<title>cxl: Prevent adapter reset if an active context exists</title>

<id>urn:sha1:70b565bbdb911023373e035225ab10077e4ab937</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch prevents resetting the cxl adapter via sysfs in presence of
one or more active cxl_context on it. This protects against an
unrecoverable error caused by PSL owning a dirty cache line even after
reset and host tries to touch the same cache line. In case a force reset
of the card is required irrespective of any active contexts, the int
value -1 can be stored in the 'reset' sysfs attribute of the card.

The patch introduces a new atomic_t member named contexts_num inside
struct cxl that holds the number of active context attached to the card
, which is checked against '0' before proceeding with the reset. To
prevent against a race condition where a context is activated just after
reset check is performed, the contexts_num is atomically set to '-1'
after reset-check to indicate that no more contexts can be activated on
the card anymore.

Before activating a context we atomically test if contexts_num is
non-negative and if so, increment its value by one. In case the value of
contexts_num is negative then it indicates that the card is about to be
reset and context activation is error-ed out at that point.

<title>cxl: Add support for interrupts on the Mellanox CX4</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a2f67d5ee8d950caaa7a6144cf0bfb256500b73e</id>
<content type='text'>
The Mellanox CX4 in cxl mode uses a hybrid interrupt model, where
interrupts are routed from the networking hardware to the XSL using the
MSIX table, and from there will be transformed back into an MSIX
interrupt using the cxl style interrupts (i.e. using IVTE entries and
ranges to map a PE and AFU interrupt number to an MSIX address).

We want to hide the implementation details of cxl interrupts as much as
possible. To this end, we use a special version of the MSI setup &amp;
teardown routines in the PHB while in cxl mode to allocate the cxl
interrupts and configure the IVTE entries in the process element.

This function does not configure the MSIX table - the CX4 card uses a
custom format in that table and it would not be appropriate to fill that
out in generic code. The rest of the functionality is similar to the
"Full MSI-X mode" described in the CAIA, and this could be easily
extended to support other adapters that use that mode in the future.

The interrupts will be associated with the default context. If the
maximum number of interrupts per context has been limited (e.g. by the
mlx5 driver), it will automatically allocate additional kernel contexts
to associate extra interrupts as required. These contexts will be
started using the same WED that was used to start the default context.
