This broke i915 on my Alderlake-P laptop.

Trying to start Xorg just hangs and I eventually have to power off the
laptop to get things back into shape.

The behaviour gets a bit better after commit fb99e79ee62a ("mei: update mei-pxp's
component interface with timeouts") as Xorg "only" gets blocked for
~10 seconds, after which it manages to start, and I get a bunch of spew
in dmesg:

The same spew repeats every time I run any application that uses the GPU,
and the application also gets blocked for a long time (eg. firefox takes
over 15 seconds to start now).

Hi Alex, i just relooked at the series that got merged, and i noticed
that in patch #3 of the series, you had changed mei_pxp_send_message
to return bytes sent instead of zero on success. IIRC, we had
agreed to not effect the behavior of this component interface (other
than adding the timeout) - this was the intention of Patch #4 that i
was pushing for in order to spec the interface (which continues
to say zero on success). We should fix this to stay with the original
behavior - where mei-pxp should NOT send partial packets and
will only return zero in success case where success is sending of
the complete packets - so we don't need to get back the "bytes sent"
from mei_pxp_send_message. So i think this might be causing the problem.


Side note  to Ville:, are you enabling PXP kernel config by default in
all MESA contexts? I recall that MESA folks were running some CI testing
with enable pxp contexts, but didn't realize this is being enabled by
default in all contexts. Please be aware that enabling pxp-contexts
would temporarily disabled runtime-pm during that contexts lifetime.
Also pxp contexts will be forced to be irrecoverable if it ever hangs.
The former is a hardware architecture requirement but doesn't do anything
if you're enabling display (which I beleive also blocks in ADL). The
latter was a requirement to comply with Vulkan.

This fix was already posted, just missed the merging window
https://lkml.org/lkml/2023/10/31/636

Greg can you please take this fix into v6.7-rc2 run, or I can repost it with the correct subject.
Thanks

Regardless of the mei_pxp_send_message being temporarily broken, doesn't 
Ville's logs suggest the PXP detection is altogether messed up? AFAIR 
the plan was exactly to avoid stalls during Mesa init and new uapi was 
added to achieve that. But it doesn't seem to be working?!

     drm/i915/pxp: Optimize GET_PARAM:PXP_STATUS

     After recent discussions with Mesa folks, it was requested
     that we optimize i915's GET_PARAM for the PXP_STATUS without
     changing the UAPI spec.

     Add these additional optimizations:
        - If any PXP initializatoin flow failed, then ensure that
          we catch it so that we can change the returned PXP_STATUS
          from "2" (i.e. 'PXP is supported but not yet ready')
          to "-ENODEV". This typically should not happen and if it
          does, we have a platform configuration issue.
        - If a PXP arbitration session creation event failed
          due to incorrect firmware version or blocking SOC fusing
          or blocking BIOS configuration (platform reasons that won't
          change if we retry), then reflect that blockage by also
          returning -ENODEV in the GET_PARAM:PXP_STATUS.
        - GET_PARAM:PXP_STATUS should not wait at all if PXP is
          supported but non-i915 dependencies (component-driver /
          firmware) we are still pending to complete the init flows.
          In this case, just return "2" immediately (i.e. 'PXP is
          supported but not yet ready').

AFAIU is things failed there shouldn't be long waits, repeated/constant 
ones even less so.

alan: I agree - but I don't think MESA is detecting for PXP for above case...
which is designed to be quick if using the GET_PARAM IOCTL - i believe MESA
may actually be opting in to enforce PXP. When this happens we are required
to be stringent when managing the protected-hw-sessions and for certain PXP
operations we retry when a failure occurs - one in particular is the PXP hw
session teardown or reset. We are expected to retry up to 3 times to ensure
that the session is properly torn down (requirements from architecture)
unless the error returned from FW indicated that we dont have proper fusing or
security assets in the platform (i.e. lower level aspects of the platform won't
permit PXP support). All of this is already coded.

So we have two problems here:

1. The code for enforcing PXP when PXP is explicitly requested by UMD is
expecting the mei-component driver to follow the mei-component-interface spec
but a change was introduced by Alex that caused a bug in this lowest layer spec
(see: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/misc/mei/pxp/mei_pxp.c#L25)
"Return: 0 on Success, <0 on Failure" for send and "Return: bytes sent on
Success, <0 on Failure" for receive - the change they made was returning
a positive number on send's success and i915 was checking the according to spec:

         ret = pxp_component->ops->send(pxp_component->tee_dev, msg_in, msg_in_size,
                                        PXP_TRANSPORT_TIMEOUT_MS);
----->   if (ret) {
                 drm_err(&i915->drm, "Failed to send PXP TEE message\n");
                 goto unlock;
         }

         ret = pxp_component->ops->recv(pxp_component->tee_dev, msg_out, msg_out_max_size,
                                        PXP_TRANSPORT_TIMEOUT_MS);
         if (ret < 0) {
                 drm_err(&i915->drm, "Failed to receive PXP TEE message\n");
                 goto unlock;
         }

So i really cannot guarantee anything if the mei code itself is broken and not
complying to the spec we agreed on - i can change the above check for send
from "if (ret)" to "if (ret < 0)" but that would only be "working aroung"
the mei bug. As a side note, when we bail on a successful "send" thinking its
a failure, and try to "send" again, it triggers an link reset in the mei-hw
link because the receive was never picked up. IF i understand this correctly,
this is hw-fw design requirement, i.e. that the send-recv be an atomic FSM
sequence. That said, if the the send-failure was a real failure, the timeout
would have not been hit and the retry would have been much faster. As a side note,
Alex from mei team did reply to me offline with indication that the fix was
supposed to have been sent via "urgent queue" and he will follow up on that. 

2. I dont believe MESA is using the GET_PARAM ioctl for detecting PXP availibility,
I think MESA is explicitly opting into creating PXP contexts. That will of course
trigger the the backend PXP code that actually executes any PXP operation. Previously
in the older code MESA was creating PXP contexts on every context creation just to
test if PXP was available which is much worse - especially on MTL which can take
much longer for the underlying firmware to come up. I have an ongoing email thread
with the MESA folks which i will include you on to clarify this.


Problem #1 is resolved and the patch-fix will need to be merged. But Problem #2 is
still an open because Ville said he did not modify MESA to opt-in to enforce
protected sessions for all the PXP contexts.
