The LIBNVDIMM subsystem is a platform agnostic representation of system
NVDIMM / persistent memory resources. To date, the CXL subsystem's
interaction with LIBNVDIMM has been to register an nvdimm-bridge device
and cxl_nvdimm objects to proxy CXL capabilities into existing LIBNVDIMM
subsystem mechanics.
With regions the approach is the same. Create a new cxl_pmem_region
object to proxy CXL region details into a LIBNVDIMM definition. With
this enabling LIBNVDIMM can partition CXL persistent memory regions with
legacy namespace labels. A follow-on patch will add CXL region label and
CXL namespace label support to persist region configurations across
driver reload / system-reset events.

The CXL region driver is responsible for routing fully formed CXL
regions to one of libnvdimm, for persistent memory regions, device-dax
for volatile memory regions, or just act as an enumeration placeholder
if the region was setup and configuration locked by platform firmware.
In the platform-firmware-setup case the expectation is that region is
already accounted in the system memory map, i.e. already enabled as
"System RAM".
For now, just attach to CXL regions in the CXL_CONFIG_COMMIT state, and
take no further action.
Given this driver is just a small / simple router, include it in the
core rather than its own module.

Once the region's interleave geometry (ways, granularity, size) is
established and all the endpoint decoder targets are assigned, the next
phase is to program all the intermediate decoders. Specifically, each
CXL switch in the path between the endpoint and its CXL host-bridge
(including the logical switch internal to the host-bridge) needs to have
its decoders programmed and the target list order assigned.
The difficulty in this implementation lies in determining which endpoint
decoder ordering combinations are valid. Consider the cxl_test case of 2
host bridges, each of those host-bridges attached to 2 switches, and
each of those switches attached to 2 endpoints for a potential 8-way
interleave. The x2 interleave at the host-bridge level requires that all
even numbered endpoint decoder positions be located on the "left" hand
side of the topology tree, and the odd numbered positions on the other.
The endpoints that are peers on the same switch need to have a position
that can be routed with a dedicated address bit per-endpoint. See
check_last_peer() for the details.

CXL regions (interleave sets) are made up of a set of memory devices
where each device maps a portion of the interleave with one of its
decoders (see CXL 2.0 8.2.5.12 CXL HDM Decoder Capability Structure).
As endpoint decoders are identified by a provisioning tool they can be
added to a region provided the region interleave properties are set
(way, granularity, HPA) and DPA has been assigned to the decoder.
The attach event triggers several validation checks, for example:
- is the DPA sized appropriately for the region
- is the decoder reachable via the host-bridges identified by the
region's root decoder
- is the device already active in a different region position slot
- are there already regions with a higher HPA active on a given port
(per CXL 2.0 8.2.5.12.20 Committing Decoder Programming)
...and the attach event affords an opportunity to collect data and
resources relevant to later programming the target lists in switch
decoders, for example:
- allocate a decoder at each cxl_port in the decode chain
- for a given switch port, how many the region's endpoints are hosted
through the port
- how many unique targets (next hops) does a port need to map to reach
those endpoints
The act of reconciling this information and deploying it to the decoder
configuration is saved for a follow-on patch.

The region provisioning process involves allocating DPA to a set of
endpoint decoders, and HPA plus the region geometry to a region device.
Then the decoder is assigned to the region. At this point several
validation steps can be performed to validate that the decoder is
suitable to participate in the region.

CXL 2.0 allows for dynamic provisioning of new memory regions (system
physical address resources like "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory").
Whereas DDR and PMEM resources are conveyed statically at boot, CXL
allows for assembling and instantiating new regions from the available
capacity of CXL memory expanders in the system.
Sysfs with an "echo $region_name > $create_region_attribute" interface
is chosen as the mechanism to initiate the provisioning process. This
was chosen over ioctl() and netlink() to keep the configuration
interface entirely in a pseudo-fs interface, and it was chosen over
configfs since, aside from this one creation event, the interface is
read-mostly. I.e. configfs supports cases where an object is designed to
be provisioned each boot, like an iSCSI storage target, and CXL region
creation is mostly for PMEM regions which are created usually once
per-lifetime of a server instance. This is an improvement over nvdimm
that pre-created "seed" devices that tended to confuse users looking to
determine which devices are active and which are idle.
Recall that the major change that CXL brings over previous persistent
memory architectures is the ability to dynamically define new regions.
Compare that to drivers like 'nfit' where the region configuration is
statically defined by platform firmware.
Regions are created as a child of a root decoder that encompasses an
address space with constraints. When created through sysfs, the root
decoder is explicit. When created from an LSA's region structure a root
decoder will possibly need to be inferred by the driver.
Upon region creation through sysfs, a vacant region is created with a
unique name. Regions have a number of attributes that must be configured
before the region can be bound to the driver where HDM decoder program
is completed.
An example of creating a new region:
- Allocate a new region name:
region=$(cat /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/create_pmem_region)
- Create a new region by name:
while
region=$(cat /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/create_pmem_region)
! echo $region > /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/create_pmem_region
do true; done
- Region now exists in sysfs:
stat -t /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/$region
- Delete the region, and name:
echo $region > /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/delete_region

[djbw: simplify locking, reword changelog]
Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
The region provisioning flow will roughly follow a sequence of:
1/ Allocate DPA to a set of decoders
2/ Allocate HPA to a region
3/ Associate decoders with a region and validate that the DPA allocations
and topologies match the parameters of the region.
For now, this change (step 1) arranges for DPA capacity to be allocated
and deleted from non-committed decoders based on the decoder's mode /
partition selection. Capacity is allocated from the lowest DPA in the
partition and any 'pmem' allocation blocks out all remaining ram
capacity in its 'skip' setting. DPA allocations are enforced in decoder
instance order. I.e. decoder N + 1 always starts at a higher DPA than
instance N, and deleting allocations must proceed from the
highest-instance allocated decoder to the lowest.

Unlike the decoder enumeration for "root decoders" described by platform
firmware, standard decoders can be enumerated from the component
registers space once the base address has been identified (via PCI,
ACPI, or another mechanism).
Add common infrastructure for HDM (Host-managed-Device-Memory) Decoder
enumeration and share it between host-bridge, upstream switch port, and
cxl_test defined decoders.
The locking model for switch level decoders is to hold the port lock
over the enumeration. This facilitates moving the dport and decoder
enumeration to a 'port' driver. For now, the only enumerator of decoder
resources is the cxl_acpi root driver.

The kbuild robot reports:
drivers/cxl/core/bus.c:516:1: warning: stack frame size (1032) exceeds
limit (1024) in function 'devm_cxl_add_decoder'
It is also the case the devm_cxl_add_decoder() is unwieldy to use for
all the different decoder types. Fix the stack usage by splitting the
creation into alloc and add steps. This also allows for context
specific construction before adding.
With the split the caller is responsible for registering a devm callback
to trigger device_unregister() for the decoder rather than it being
implicit in the decoder registration. I.e. the routine that calls alloc
is responsible for calling put_device() if the "add" operation fails.

Now that the internals of mailbox operations are abstracted from the PCI
specifics a bulk of infrastructure can move to the core.
The CXL_PMEM driver intends to proxy LIBNVDIMM UAPI and driver requests
to the equivalent functionality provided by the CXL hardware mailbox
interface. In support of that intent move the mailbox implementation to
a shared location for the CXL_PCI driver native IOCTL path and CXL_PMEM
nvdimm command proxy path to share.
A unit test framework seeks to implement a unit test backend transport
for mailbox commands to communicate mocked up payloads. It can reuse all
of the mailbox infrastructure minus the PCI specifics, so that also gets
moved to the core.
Finally with the mailbox infrastructure and ioctl handling being
transport generic there is no longer any need to pass file
file_operations to devm_cxl_add_memdev(). That allows all the ioctl
boilerplate to move into the core for unit test reuse.
No functional change intended, just code movement.

The motivation for moving cxl_memdev allocation to the core (beyond
better file organization of sysfs attributes in core/ and drivers in
cxl/), is that device lifetime is longer than module lifetime. The cxl_pci
module should be free to come and go without needing to coordinate with
devices that need the text associated with cxl_memdev_release() to stay
resident. The move fixes a use after free bug when looping driver
load / unload with CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE=y.
Another motivation for disconnecting cxl_memdev creation from cxl_pci is
to enable other drivers, like a unit test driver, to registers memdevs.
