Once the adapter context is created, it needs to be started by assigning the MMIO space for the context and by enabling the process element in the link. This commit adds the skeleton for starting the context and assigns the context specific MMIO space. Master contexts have access to the global MMIO space while the rest have access to the context specific space. Signed-off-by:

When the AFU is configured, the global and per process MMIO regions are presented by the configuration space. Save these regions and map the global MMIO region that is used to access all of the control and provisioning data in the AFU. Signed-off-by:

A range of PASIDs are used as identifiers for the adapter contexts. These contexts may be destroyed and created randomly. Use an IDR to keep track of contexts that are in use and assign a unique identifier to new ones. Signed-off-by:

Add support to create and release the adapter contexts for OCXL and provide means to specify certain contexts as a master. The existing cxlflash core has a design requirement that each host will have a single host context available by default. To satisfy this requirement, one host adapter context is created when the hardware AFU is initialized. This is returned by the get_context() fop. Signed-off-by:

Per the OCXL specification, the maximum PASID supported by the AFU is indicated by a field within the configuration space. Similar to acTags, implementations can choose to use any sub-range of PASID within their assigned range. For cxlflash, the entire range is used. Signed-off-by:

The OCXL specification supports distributing acTags amongst different AFUs and functions on the link. As cxlflash devices are expected to only support a single AFU per function, the entire range that was assigned to the function is also assigned to the AFU. Signed-off-by:

The OCXL specification supports distributing acTags amongst different AFUs and functions on the link. The platform-specific acTag range for the link is obtained using the OCXL provider services and then assigned to the host function based on implementation. Signed-off-by:

Per the OCXL specification, the underlying host can have multiple AFUs per function with each function supporting its own configuration. The host function configuration is read on the initialization path to evaluate the number of functions present and identify the features and configuration of the functions present. This data is cached for use in later configuration steps. Note that for the OCXL hardware supported by the cxlflash driver, only one AFU per function is expected. Signed-off-by:

When an adapter is initialized, transport specific configuration and MMIO mapping details need to be saved. For CXL, this data is managed by the underlying kernel module. To maintain a separation between the cxlflash core and underlying transports, introduce a new structure to store data specific to the OCXL AFU. Initially only the pointers to underlying PCI and generic devices are added to this new structure - it will be expanded further in future commits. Services to create and destroy this hardware AFU are added and integrated in the probe and exit paths of the driver. Signed-off-by:

Matthew R. Ochs authored
The SISLite specification originally defined the context control register with a single field of bits to represent the LISN and also stipulated that the register reset value be 0. The cxlflash driver took advantage of this when programming the LISN for the master contexts via an unconditional write - no other bits were preserved. When unmap support was added, SISLite was updated to define bit 0 of the context control register as a way for the AFU to notify the context owner that unmap operations were supported. Thus the assumptions under which the register is setup changed and the existing unconditional write is clobbering the unmap state for master contexts. This is presently not an issue due to the order in which the context control register is programmed in relation to the unmap bit being queried but should be addressed to avoid a future regression in the event this code is moved elsewhere. To remedy this issue, preserve the bits when programming the LISN field in the context control register. Since the LISN will now be programmed using a read value, assert that the initial state of the LISN field is as described in SISLite (0). Signed-off-by:

The number of interrupts requested for user contexts are stored in the context specific structures and utilized to manage the interrupts. For the master contexts, this number is only used once and therefore not saved. To prepare for future commits where the number of interrupts will be required in more than one place, preserve the value in the master context structure. [mkp: typo in comment] Signed-off-by:

The code to verify the new kernels sha digest is applicable for all architectures. Move it to common code. One problem is the string.c implementation on x86. Currently sha256 includes x86/boot/string.h which defines memcpy and memset to be gcc builtins. By moving the sha256 implementation to common code and changing the include to linux/string.h both functions are no longer defined. Thus definitions have to be provided in x86/purgatory/string.c Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180321112751.22196-12-prudo@linux.vnet.ibm.comSigned-off-by:

For s390 new kernels are loaded to fixed addresses in memory before they are booted. With the current code this is a problem as it assumes the kernel will be loaded to an 'arbitrary' address. In particular, kexec_locate_mem_hole searches for a large enough memory region and sets the load address (kexec_bufer->mem) to it. Luckily there is a simple workaround for this problem. By returning 1 in arch_kexec_walk_mem, kexec_locate_mem_hole is turned off. This allows the architecture to set kbuf->mem by hand. While the trick works fine for the kernel it does not for the purgatory as here the architectures don't have access to its kexec_buffer. Give architectures access to the purgatories kexec_buffer by changing kexec_load_purgatory to take a pointer to it. With this change architectures have access to the buffer and can edit it as they need. A nice side effect of this change is that we can get rid of the purgatory_info->purgatory_load_address field. As now the information stored there can directly be accessed from kbuf->mem. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180321112751.22196-11-prudo@linux.vnet.ibm.comSigned-off-by:

The current code uses the sh_offset field in purgatory_info->sechdrs to store a pointer to the current load address of the section. Depending whether the section will be loaded or not this is either a pointer into purgatory_info->purgatory_buf or kexec_purgatory. This is not only a violation of the ELF standard but also makes the code very hard to understand as you cannot tell if the memory you are using is read-only or not. Remove this misuse and store the offset of the section in pugaroty_info->purgatory_buf in sh_offset. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180321112751.22196-10-prudo@linux.vnet.ibm.comSigned-off-by:

To update the entry point there is an extra loop over all section headers although this can be done in the main loop. So move it there and eliminate the extra loop and variable to store the 'entry section index'. Also, in the main loop, move the usual case, i.e. non-bss section, out of the extra if-block.

When inspecting __kexec_load_purgatory you find that it has two tasks 1) setting up the kexec_buffer for the new kernel and, 2) setting up pi->sechdrs for the final load address. The two tasks are independent of each other. To improve readability split up __kexec_load_purgatory into two functions, one for each task, and call them directly from kexec_load_purgatory.

When the relocations are applied to the purgatory only the section the relocations are applied to is writable. The other sections, i.e. the symtab and .rel/.rela, are in read-only kexec_purgatory. Highlight this by marking the corresponding variables as 'const'. While at it also change the signatures of arch_kexec_apply_relocations* to take section pointers instead of just the index of the relocation section. This removes the second lookup and sanity check of the sections in arch code. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180321112751.22196-6-prudo@linux.vnet.ibm.comSigned-off-by:

The stripped purgatory does not contain a symtab. So when looking for symbols this is done in read-only kexec_purgatory. Highlight this by marking the corresponding variables as 'const'. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180321112751.22196-5-prudo@linux.vnet.ibm.comSigned-off-by:

The kexec_purgatory buffer is read-only. Thus all pointers into kexec_purgatory are read-only, too. Point this out by explicitly marking purgatory_info->ehdr as 'const' and update the comments in purgatory_info.
