Changes since RFC V2.
* RFC dropped as now we have x86 support, so the lack of guards in in the
ACPI code etc should now be fine.
* Added x86 support.  Note this has only been tested on QEMU as I don't have
a convenient x86 NUMA machine to play with.  Note that this fitted together
rather differently form arm64 so I'm particularly interested in feedback
on the two solutions.

Since RFC V1.
* Fix incorrect interpretation of the ACPI entry noted by Keith Busch
* Use the acpica headers definitions that are now in mmotm.

It's worth noting that, to safely put a given device in a GI node, may
require changes to the existing drivers as it's not unusual to assume
you have local memory or processor core. There may be futher constraints
not yet covered by this patch.

Original cover letter...

ACPI 6.3 introduced a new entity that can be part of a NUMA proximity domain.
It may share such a domain with the existing options (memory, cpu etc) but it
may also exist on it's own.

The intent is to allow the description of the NUMA properties (particulary
via HMAT) of accelerators and other initiators of memory activity that are not
the host processor running the operating system.

This patch set introduces 'just enough' to make them work for arm64 and x86.
It should be trivial to support other architectures, I just don't suitable
NUMA systems readily available to test.

There are a few quirks that need to be considered.

1. Fall back nodes
******************

As pre ACPI 6.3 supporting operating systems do not have Generic Initiator
Proximity Domains it is possible to specify, via _PXM in DSDT that another
device is part of such a GI only node.  This currently blows up spectacularly.

Whilst we can obviously 'now' protect against such a situation (see the related
thread on PCI _PXM support and the  threadripper board identified there as
also falling into the  problem of using non existent nodes
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10723311/ ), there is no way to  be sure
we will never have legacy OSes that are not protected  against this.  It would
also be 'non ideal' to fallback to  a default node as there may be a better
(non GI) node to pick  if GI nodes aren't available.

The work around is that we also have a new system wide OSC bit that allows
an operating system to 'annouce' that it supports Generic Initiators.  This
allows, the firmware to us DSDT magic to 'move' devices between the nodes
dependent on whether our new nodes are there or not.

2. New ways of assigning a proximity domain for devices
*******************************************************

Until now, the only way firmware could indicate that a particular device
(outside the 'special' set of cpus etc) was to be found in a particular
Proximity Domain by the use of _PXM in DSDT.

That is equally valid with GI domains, but we have new options. The SRAT
affinity structure includes a handle (ACPI or PCI) to identify devices
with the system and specify their proximity domain that way.  If both _PXM
and this are provided, they should give the same answer.

For now this patch set completely ignores that feature as we don't need
it to start the discussion.  It will form a follow up set at some point
(if no one else fancies doing it).

Generic Initiators are a new ACPI concept that allows for the
description of proximity domains that contain a device which
performs memory access (such as a network card) but neither
host CPU nor Memory.

This patch has the parsing code and provides the infrastructure
for an architecture to associate these new domains with their
nearest memory processing node.

The one thing that currently needs doing from an architecture
point of view is associating the GI domain with its nearest
memory domain.  This allows all the standard NUMA aware code
to get a 'reasonable' answer.

A clever driver might elect to do load balancing etc
if there are multiple host / memory domains nearby, but
that's a decision for the driver.

Done in a somewhat different fashion to arm64.
Here the infrastructure for memoryless domains was already
in place.  That infrastruture applies just as well to
domains that also don't have a CPU, hence it works for
Generic Initiator Domains.

In common with memoryless domains we only register GI domains
if the proximity node is not online. If a domain is already
a memory containing domain, or a memoryless domain there is
nothing to do just because it also contains a Generic Initiator.

Until we tell ACPI that we support generic initiators, it will have
to operate in fall back domain mode and all _PXM entries should
be on existing non GI domains.

This patch sets the relevant OSC bit to make that happen.

Note that this currently doesn't take into account whether we have the relevant
setup code for a given architecture.  Do we want to make this optional, or
should the initial patch set just enable it for all ACPI supporting architectures?

Hi All,

Anyone had a change to take a look at this?

Thanks,

Hi All,

This is your periodic Generic Initiator reminder service.  I'm still looking
for review on all aspects of this series.

* ACPI for the table parsing code.
* ARM64 for the architecture handling
* x86 for the architecture handling.
* Generic MM for the overall approach. In some sense it's not mm related in
  of itself (as otherwise they wouldn't be Generic Initiator domains) but
  it does result in different NUMA policy decisions from the current status
  hence mm input would be great.

Any suggestions on people to add to the CC list to try and make some progress
on this welcome as well.

If I don't hear anything I'll do a rebase post the coming merge window and
resend.

Thanks,

Jonathan
