If MCFG area is not reserved in E820, Xen by default will defer its usage
until Dom0 registers it explicitly after ACPI parser recognizes it as
a reserved resource in DSDT. Having it reserved in E820 is not
mandatory according to "PCI Firmware Specification, rev 3.2" (par. 4.1.2)
and firmware is free to keep a hole E820 in that place. Xen doesn't know
what exactly is inside this hole since it lacks full ACPI view of the
platform therefore it's potentially harmful to access MCFG region
without additional checks as some machines are known to provide
inconsistent information on the size of the region.

Now xen_mcfg_late() runs after acpi_init() which is too late as some basic
PCI enumeration starts exactly there. Trying to register a device prior
to MCFG reservation causes multiple problems with PCIe extended
capability initializations in Xen (e.g. SR-IOV VF BAR sizing). There are
no convenient hooks for us to subscribe to so try to register MCFG
areas earlier upon the first invocation of xen_add_device(). Keep the
existing initcall in case information of MCFG areas is updated later
in acpi_init().

Irrespective of this being a good change, I've had another thought
while reading this paragraph, for a hypervisor side control: Linux
has a "memopt=" command line option allowing fine grained control
over the E820 map. We could have something similar to allow
inserting an E820_RESERVED region into a hole (it would be the
responsibility of the admin to guarantee no other conflicts, i.e.
it should generally be used only if e.g. the MCFG is indeed known
to live at the specified place, and being properly represented in
the ACPI tables). Thoughts?

What other use cases can you think of in case we'd have this option?
From the top of my head, it might be providing a memmap for a second Xen
after doing kexec from Xen to Xen.

What benefits do you think it might have over just accepting a hole
using "mcfg=relaxed" option from admin perspective?

It wouldn't be MCFG-specific, i.e. it could also be used to e.g.
convert holes to E820_RESERVED to silence VT-d's respective RMRR
warning. Plus by inserting the entry into our own E820 we'd also
propagate it to users of XENMEM_machine_memory_map.

It happens twice:
1) first time early one in pci_arch_init() that is arch_initcall - that
time pci_mmcfg_list will be freed immediately there because MCFG area is
not reserved in E820;
2) second time late one in acpi_init() which is subsystem_initcall right
before where PCI enumeration starts - this time ACPI tables will be
checked for a reserved resource and pci_mmcfg_list will be finally
populated.

The problem is that on a system that doesn't have MCFG area reserved in
E820 pci_mmcfg_list is empty before acpi_init() and our PCI hooks are
called in the same place. So MCFG is still not in use by Xen at this
point since we haven't reached our xen_mcfg_late().

It happens twice:
1) first time early one in pci_arch_init() that is arch_initcall - that
time pci_mmcfg_list will be freed immediately there because MCFG area is
not reserved in E820;
2) second time late one in acpi_init() which is subsystem_initcall right
before where PCI enumeration starts - this time ACPI tables will be
checked for a reserved resource and pci_mmcfg_list will be finally
populated.

The problem is that on a system that doesn't have MCFG area reserved in
E820 pci_mmcfg_list is empty before acpi_init() and our PCI hooks are
called in the same place. So MCFG is still not in use by Xen at this
point since we haven't reached our xen_mcfg_late().

Would it be possible for us to parse MCFG ourselves in pci_xen_init()? I
realize that we'd be doing this twice (or maybe even three times since
apparently both pci_arch_init()  and acpi_ini() do it).

I don't thine it makes sense:
a) it needs to be done after ACPI is initialized since we need to parse
it to figure out the exact reserved region - that's why it's currently
done in acpi_init() (see commit message for the reasons why)
b) given (a) we cannot do it ourselves before acpi_init and after is too
late as we're already past ACPI PCI enumeration
c) we'd have to do it in the same place I call xen_mcfg_late() and it'd
be code duplication of what's already done by the existing code.

Hmm... We should be able to parse ACPI tables by the time
pci_arch_init() is called. In fact, if you look at
pci_mmcfg_early_init() you will see that it does just that.

If we manage to parse MCFG ourselves early then maybe we won't not need
xen_mcfg_late()? We can call PHYSDEVOP_pci_mmcfg_reserved right away.

Again, this cannot be done untile acpi_init finishes basic setup to
parse DSDT.

OK, I think I understand now what you are trying to do --- you are
essentially trying to account for the range inserted by
setup_mcfg_map(), right?

The other question I have is why you think it's worth keeping
xen_mcfg_late() as a late initcall. How could MCFG info be updated
between acpi_init() and late_initcalls being run? I'd think it can only
happen when a new device is hotplugged.

OK, I think I understand now what you are trying to do --- you are
essentially trying to account for the range inserted by
setup_mcfg_map(), right?

The other question I have is why you think it's worth keeping
xen_mcfg_late() as a late initcall. How could MCFG info be updated
between acpi_init() and late_initcalls being run? I'd think it can only
happen when a new device is hotplugged.

Actually, pci_mmcfg_late_init() that's called out of acpi_init() -
that's where MCFG areas are properly sized. setup_mcfg_map() is mostly
for bus hotplug where MCFG area is discovered by evaluating _CBA method;
for cold-plugged buses it just confirms that MCFG area is already
registered because it is mandated for them to be in MCFG table at boot time.

It was a precaution against setup_mcfg_map() calls that might add new
areas that are not in MCFG table but for some reason have _CBA method.
It's obviously a "firmware is broken" scenario so I don't have strong
feelings to keep it here. Will prefer to remove in v2 if you want.

pci_mmcfg_late_init() reads the (static) MCFG, which doesn't need DSDT parsing, does it? setup_mcfg_map() OTOH does need it as it uses data from _CBA (or is it _CRS?), and I think that's why we can't parse MCFG prior to acpi_init(). So what I said above indeed won't work.

Isn't setup_mcfg_map() called before the first xen_add_device() which is where you are calling xen_mcfg_late()?

No, it uses is_acpi_reserved() (it's called indirectly so might be well
hidden) to parse DSDT to find a reserved resource in it and size MCFG
area accordingly. setup_mcfg_map() is called for every root bus
discovered and indeed tries to evaluate _CBA but at this point
pci_mmcfg_late_init() has already finished MCFG registration for every
cold-plugged bus (which information is described in MCFG table) so those
calls are dummy.

setup_mcfg_map() calls are done in order of root bus discovery which
happens *after* the previous root bus has been enumerated. So the order
is: call setup_mcfg_map() for root bus 0, find that
pci_mmcfg_late_init() has finished MCFG area registration, perform PCI
enumeration of bus 0, call xen_add_device() for every device there, call
setup_mcfg_map() for root bus X, etc.

No, it uses is_acpi_reserved() (it's called indirectly so might be well
hidden) to parse DSDT to find a reserved resource in it and size MCFG
area accordingly. setup_mcfg_map() is called for every root bus
discovered and indeed tries to evaluate _CBA but at this point
pci_mmcfg_late_init() has already finished MCFG registration for every
cold-plugged bus (which information is described in MCFG table) so those
calls are dummy.

setup_mcfg_map() calls are done in order of root bus discovery which
happens *after* the previous root bus has been enumerated. So the order
is: call setup_mcfg_map() for root bus 0, find that
pci_mmcfg_late_init() has finished MCFG area registration, perform PCI
enumeration of bus 0, call xen_add_device() for every device there, call
setup_mcfg_map() for root bus X, etc.

I don't think they're strictly dummy. Even for boot time available devices
iirc there's no strict requirement for there to be respective data in MCFG.
Such a requirement exists only for devices which are actually needed to
start the OS (disk or network, perhaps video or alike), or maybe even just
its loader.

This was my interpretation of 4.1.3 of "PCI Frimware specification":
"Memory mapped configuration base addresses for non-hot pluggable host
bridges must be described using MCFG table." Although, I admit that
"non-hot pluggable" might mean available at boot as well.

Ah, yes. Multiple busses.

If that's the case then why don't we need to call xen_mcfg_late() for
the first device on each bus?

Ideally, yes - we'd like to call it for every bus discovered. But boot
time buses are already in MCFG (otherwise system boot might not simply
work as Jan pointed out) so it's not strictly required. The only case is
a potential PCI bus hot-plug but I'm not sure it actually works in
practice and we certainly didn't support it before. It might be solved
theoretically by subscribing to acpi_bus_type that is available after
acpi_init().

theoretically by subscribing to acpi_bus_type that is available after
acpi_init().

OK. Then *I think* we can drop late_initcall() but I would really like
to hear when others think.

Another thing that I implied by "not supporting" but want to explicitly
call out is that currently Xen will refuse reserving any MCFG area
unless it actually existed in MCFG table at boot. I don't clearly
understand reasoning behind it but it might be worth relaxing at least
size matching restriction on Xen side now with this change.

I guess it's because no-one had a system were it would be needed,
and hence could be tested.

Since noone commented then can you send a v2 with second patch removing
the late call?

Also, in the first patch please limit the scope of pci_mcfg_reserved to
just xen_add_device().
