[PATCH 00/11] ARM64 PCI hostbridge init based on ACPI

by Hanjun Guo

This patch set is introducing ARM64 PCI hostbridge init based on ACPI, which based on Jiang Liu's patch set "Consolidate ACPI PCI root common code into ACPI core": https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/14/98 This patch set including three parts: - the first part is PATCH 1, which should be merged into Jiang Liu's patch set to fix the compile error on ARM64 when ACPI enabled. - the senconed part is the refactoring of mmconfig to let that mechanism can be used for ARM64 too, it's Tomasz's work but he is moving to other work and pretty busy for now, so I will take care of those patches, Tomasz will show up when some comments need to be addressed :) In this version of mmconfig refactor patches, I removed the rename of mmconfig -> ecam patch, because mmconfig is in multi places, and need much more effort to convert them all to ecam, Bjorn, if you don't like it, I can add them back. - The third part is about the ARM64 PCI hostbridge init based on ACPI, first I fixed a compile error for XEN PCI on ARM64 when PCI_MMCONFIG=y, and then introduce PCI init based on Jiang Liu and Tomasz's patch set. patch for ARM64 ACPI PCI still reserve the bus sysdata to get the domain number, because Yijing's patch set is still under review, will be removed when Yijing's patch set hits upstream. This patch set was tested by Suravee on Seattle board with legacy interrupt (not MSI), and it works, also tested on qemu by Graeme. You can get the code from: git://git.linaro.org/leg/acpi/acpi.git, devel branch Comments are welcomed.

[PATCH v4 00/10] ACPI GIC Self-probing, GICv2m and GICv3 support

by Hanjun Guo

When ACPI core patches were merged into mainline, there were two TODOs for ACPI based GIC init, one is the Self-probing for GIC, the other one is to support stacked irq domain, also the feature of GICv2m and GICv3 is missing in that patch set. For ACPI Self-probing for GIC, thanks to the GIC version which is introduced in ACPI 6.0, we can match the GIC version and GIC driver, based on that, we introduce the self-probe infrastructure similar as IRQCHIP_DECLARE(), please see patch 1~3. The stacked domain thing is more complicated, Marc introduced a patchset to slove this problem (great thanks!) - Making the generic ACPI GSI layer irqdomain aware, which is avaiable at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/maz/arm-platforms.git irq/gsi-irq-domain-v2 so we reworked the GICv2m and GICv3 support on top of it, and combined them as a single patch set for review. Note: this patchset has no ITS support for GICv3/4, it will be implmented in the IORT patchset, which had a draft version but needs to rework it on top of Marc's Per-device MSI domain & platform MSI patchset. Tested on GICv2 based FVP base model and AMD Seattle platform, both wired interrupt and MSI (with some PCI patches) work fine. Patches are on top of Marc's branch irq/gsi-irq-domain-v2, and available at: git://git.linaro.org/leg/acpi/acpi.git gsi-irqdomain Comments are warmly welcomed. >From v3: - Rework GICv3 patches on top of Marc's tree - Add gicV2m support Hanjun Guo (5): irqchip / GIC: Add GIC version support in ACPI MADT ACPI / irqchip: Add self-probe infrastructure to initialize IRQ controller irqchip / GIC / ACPI: Use IRQCHIP_ACPI_DECLARE to simplify GICv2 init code irqchip / GICv3: remove the useless comparision of device node in xlate irqchip / GICv3 / ACPI: Add GICR support via GICC structures Suravee Suthikulpanit (3): ACPI: GIC: Add ACPI helper functions to query irq-domain tokens for for GIC MSI and ITS PCI: ACPI: Bind GIC MSI frame to PCI host bridge irqchip / gicv2m: Introducing gicv2m_acpi_init() Tomasz Nowicki (2): irqchip / GICv3: Refactor gic_of_init() for GICv3 driver irqchip / GICv3: Add ACPI support for GICv3+ initialization arch/arm64/Kconfig | 1 + arch/arm64/include/asm/irq.h | 13 -- arch/arm64/kernel/acpi.c | 25 -- drivers/acpi/Makefile | 1 + drivers/acpi/acpi_gic.c | 234 +++++++++++++++++++ drivers/irqchip/Kconfig | 3 + drivers/irqchip/Makefile | 1 + drivers/irqchip/irq-gic-acpi.c | 175 ++++++++++++++ drivers/irqchip/irq-gic-v2m.c | 111 +++++++-- drivers/irqchip/irq-gic-v3.c | 438 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- drivers/irqchip/irq-gic.c | 6 +- drivers/pci/pci-acpi.c | 18 ++ drivers/pci/probe.c | 3 + include/acpi/acpi_gic.h | 23 ++ include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h | 13 ++ include/linux/acpi.h | 17 ++ include/linux/acpi_irq.h | 4 +- include/linux/irqchip.h | 13 ++ include/linux/irqchip/arm-gic-acpi.h | 10 +- include/linux/irqchip/arm-gic.h | 7 + include/linux/mod_devicetable.h | 8 + include/linux/pci-acpi.h | 4 + 22 files changed, 1009 insertions(+), 119 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/acpi/acpi_gic.c create mode 100644 drivers/irqchip/irq-gic-acpi.c create mode 100644 include/acpi/acpi_gic.h -- 1.9.1

[PATCH V9 0/5] map GHES memory region according to EFI memory map

by Jonathan (Zhixiong) Zhang

From: "Jonathan (Zhixiong) Zhang" <zjzhang(a)codeaurora.org> On a platform with APEI (ACPI Platform Error Interface) enabled, firmware updates a memory region with hardware error record using nocache attribute. When OS reads the region, since it maps the region with cacahed attribute even though EFI memory map defines this region as uncached, OS gets stale data and errorneously reports there is no new HW error. When ghes driver maps the memory region, it uses the cache attribute according to EFI memory map, if EFI memory map feature is enabled at runtime. Since both arch/x86 and arch/ia64 implemented architecture agnostic EFI memory map attribue lookup function efi_memattributes(), the code is moved from arch/x86 into EFI subsystem and is declared as __weak; archs other than ia64 should not override the default implementation. V9: 1. Rebased to arm64-upstream-14543 of arm64/master. 2. Match strict MM type in arch_apei_get_mem_attribute(). V8: 1. For x86, always return PAGE_KERNEL for arch_apei_get_mem_attribute(). The rational is explained in comment. 2. Rebased to arm64-upstream-14201 of arm64/master, next-20150724 of linux-next/master. V7: 1. Added PROT_DEVICE_nGnRnE and PROT_NORMAL_WT to support all possible UEFI memory types for arm64. V6: 1. Implemented arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() for arm64 as inline function. 2. Rebased to efi-next-14364 of efi/next, pm+acpi-4.2-rc3 of linux-pm/master, arm64-upstream-13521 of arm64/master, next-20150720 of linux-next/master. V5: 1.

Added comment for efi_mem_attributes(), explained why it is marked as __weak at the function definition site. V4: 1. Introduced arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() to allow arch specific implementation of getting pgprot_t appropriate for a physical address. 2. Implemented arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() for x86 and for arm64. V3: 1. Rebased to v4.1-rc7. 2. Moved efi_mem_attributes() from arch/x86 to drivers/firmware/efi and declared it as __weak. 3. Introduced ARCH_APEI_PAGE_KERNEL_UC to allow arch specific page protection type for UC. 4. Removed efi_ioremap(). It can not be used for GHES memory region mapping purpose since ioremap can not be used in atomic context. V2: 1. Rebased to v4.1-rc5. 2. Split removal of efi_mem_attributes() and creation of efi_ioremap() into two patches.

[PATCH v7 0/8] CPUFreq driver using CPPC methods

by Ashwin Chaugule

CPPC: ==== CPPC (Collaborative Processor Performance Control) is a new way to control CPU performance using an abstract continous scale as against a discretized P-state scale which is tied to CPU frequency only. It is defined in the ACPI 5.0+ spec. In brief, the basic operation involves: - OS makes a CPU performance request. (Can provide min and max tolerable bounds) - Platform (such as BMC) is free to optimize request within requested bounds depending on power/thermal budgets etc. - Platform conveys its decision back to OS The communication between OS and platform occurs through another medium called (PCC) Platform communication Channel. This is a generic mailbox like mechanism which includes doorbell semantics to indicate register updates. See drivers/mailbox/pcc.c This patchset introduces a CPPC based CPUFreq driver that works with existing governors such as ondemand. The CPPC table parsing and the CPPC communication semantics are abstracted into separate files to allow future CPPC based drivers to implement their own governors if required. Initial patchsets included an adaptation of the PID governor from intel_pstate.c. However recent experiments led to extensive modifications of the algorithm to calculate CPU busyness. Until it is verified that these changes are worthwhile, the existing governors should provide for a good enough starting point for ARM64 servers. Finer details about the PCC and CPPC spec are available in the latest ACPI 5.1 specification.[2] Testing: ======= This was tested on an SBSA compatible ARMv8 server with CPPCv2 firmware running on a remote processor. I verified that each CPUs performance limits were detected and that new performance requests were made by the on-demand governor proportional to the load on each CPU. I also verified that using the acpi_processor driver correctly maps the physical CPU ids to logical CPU ids, which helps in picking up the proper _CPC details from a processor object, in the case where CPU physical ids may not be contiguous. Changes since V6: - Separated PSS and CST from ACPI processor driver in two patches. - Made new Kconfig symbols auto selectable from Arch Kconfigs. Changes since V5: - Checkpatch cleanups. - Change pss_init to pss_perf_init. Rec by Srinivas Pandruvada. - Explicit comment explaining why postcore_initcall to pcc mailbox. - Fold acpi_processor_syscore_init/exit into CONFIG_ACPI_CST. - Added patch with dummy functions used by ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU. Changes since V4: - Misc cleanups. Addressed feedback from Rafael. - Made acpi_processor.c independent of C-states, P-states and others. - Per CPU scanning for _CPC is now made from acpi_processor.c - Added new Kconfig options for legacy C states and P states to enable future support for newer alternatives as defined in the ACPI spec 6.0. Changes since V3: - Split CPPC backend methods into separate files. - Add frontend driver which plugs into existing CPUfreq governors. - Simplify PCC driver by moving communication space mapping and read/write into client drivers. Changes since V2: - Select driver if !X86, since intel_pstate will use HWP extensions instead. - Added more comments. - Added Freq domain awareness and PSD parsing. Changes since V1: - Create a new driver based on Dirks suggestion. - Fold in CPPC backend hooks into main driver. Changes since V0: [1] - Split intel_pstate.c into a generic PID governor and platform specific backend. - Add CPPC accessors as PID backend.

Since both arch/x86 and arch/ia64 implemented architecture agnostic EFI memory map attribue lookup function efi_memattributes(), the code is moved from arch/x86 into EFI subsystem and is declared as __weak; archs other than ia64 should not override the default implementation. V8: 1. For x86, always return PAGE_KERNEL for arch_apei_get_mem_attribute(). The rational is explained in comment. 2. Rebased to arm64-upstream-14201 of arm64/master, next-20150724 of linux-next/master. V7: 1. Added PROT_DEVICE_nGnRnE and PROT_NORMAL_WT to support all possible UEFI memory types for arm64. V6: 1. Implemented arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() for arm64 as inline function. 2. Rebased to efi-next-14364 of efi/next, pm+acpi-4.2-rc3 of linux-pm/master, arm64-upstream-13521 of arm64/master, next-20150720 of linux-next/master. V5: 1. Rebased to next-20150713 of linux-next/master, efi-next-14359 of efi/next, pm+acpi-4.2-rc2 of linux-pm/master, arm64-fixes-1215 of arm64/master. 2. Added comment for efi_mem_attributes(), explained why it is marked as __weak at the function definition site. V4: 1. Introduced arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() to allow arch specific implementation of getting pgprot_t appropriate for a physical address. 2. Implemented arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() for x86 and for arm64. V3: 1. Rebased to v4.1-rc7. 2. Moved efi_mem_attributes() from arch/x86 to drivers/firmware/efi and declared it as __weak. 3. Introduced ARCH_APEI_PAGE_KERNEL_UC to allow arch specific page protection type for UC. 4. Removed efi_ioremap(). It can not be used for GHES memory region mapping purpose since ioremap can not be used in atomic context. V2: 1. Rebased to v4.1-rc5. 2. Split removal of efi_mem_attributes() and creation of efi_ioremap() into two patches.
