Merge tag 'cxl-for-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cxl/cxl
Pull CXL updates from Dan Williams:
"CXL has mechanisms to enumerate the performance characteristics of
memory devices. Those mechanisms allow Linux to build the equivalent
of ACPI SRAT, SLIT, and HMAT tables dynamically at runtime. That
capability is necessary because static ACPI can not represent dynamic
CXL configurations (and reconfigurations).
So, building on the v6.8 work to add "Quality of Service" enumeration,
this update plumbs CXL "access coordinates" (read/write access latency
and bandwidth) in all the same places that ACPI HMAT feeds similar
data. Follow-on patches from the -mm side can then use that data to
feed mechanisms like mm/memory-tiers.c. Greg has acked the touch to
drivers/base/.
The other feature update this cycle is support for CXL error injection
via the ACPI EINJ module. That facility enables injection of bus
protocol errors provided the user knows the magic address values to
insert in the interface. To hide that magic, and make this easier to
use, new error injection attributes were added to CXL debugfs. That
interface injects the errors relative to a CXL object rather than
require user tooling to know how to lookup and inject RCRB (Root
Complex Register Block) addresses into the raw EINJ debugfs interface.
It received some helpful review comments from Tony, but no explicit
acks from the ACPI side. The primary user visible change for existing
EINJ users is that they may find that einj.ko was already loaded by
cxl_core.ko. Previously, einj.ko was only loaded on demand.
The usual collection of miscellaneous cleanups are also present this
cycle.
Summary:
- Supplement ACPI HMAT reported memory performance with native CXL
memory performance enumeration
- Add support for CXL error injection via the ACPI EINJ mechanism
- Cleanup CXL DOE and CDAT integration
- Miscellaneous cleanups and fixes"
