[regression] nct6775 does not load in 5.4 and 5.5, bisected to b84398d6d7f90080

[Martin Volf]

Hello,

hardware monitoring sensors NCT6796D on my Asus PRIME Z390M-PLUS
motherboard with Intel i7-9700 CPU don't work with 5.4 and newer linux
kernels, the driver nct6775 does not load.

It is working OK in version 5.3. I have used almost all released stable
versions from 5.3.8 to 5.3.16; I didn't try older kernels.

Even on new kernels the sensors-detect finds the sensors:
        Found `Nuvoton NCT6796D Super IO Sensors' Success!
            (address 0x290, driver `nct6775')
but "modprobe nct6775" says:
        ERROR: could not insert 'nct6775': No such device
There is nothing interesting in dmesg.

git bisect found out the first bad commit is
b84398d6d7f900805662b1619223fd644d862d7c,
i2c: i801: Use iTCO version 6 in Cannon Lake PCH and beyond

Unfortunately I am not able to revert it in v5.4 to confirm it is really
the culprit.

Is there a way to have working hwmon sensors on my system in newer linux
kernels?

Thanks,

Martin

Well, it worked before, so I am quite sure it can be fixed. Thank you
very much for your detailed regression report! Sadly, I am not familiar
enough with those drivers, but you put the right people on CC, so I
think you will get more feedback within the next days. I'll keep an eye
on this, too.

Happy hacking,

My wild guess would be that the i801 driver is a bit aggressive with
reserving memory spaces, but I don't immediately see what it does
differently in that regard after the offending patch. Does it work
if you unload the i2c_i801 driver first ?

You could also try to compare the output of /proc/ioports with
the old and the new kernel, and see if the IO address space used
by nct6775 in v5.3 is assigned to the i801 driver (or some other
driver, such as the watchdog driver) in v5.4.

If you are into hacking the kernel, you could also add some
debug messages into the nct6775 driver to find out where exactly
it fails. If that helps, maybe we can then add those messages into
into the driver source to help others if this is observed again.

Thanks,
Guenter

Yes, after unloading i2c_i801, the nct6775 works. There is definitely
some sort of race between these two drivers. Mostly i2c_i801 wins, but it
happened twice that nct6775 got automatically loaded just before i2c_i801
and the sensors worked.

This is diff of /proc/ioports in 5.3.18 with loaded nct6775 and in

I have added some pr_info calls, the diff is at the and of this massage.

So 0x2e is the resource the two drivers are fighting for.

I have created /etc/modprobe.d/nct6775-before-i2c_i801.conf with
install i2c_i801 /sbin/modprobe nct6775; /sbin/modprobe
--ignore-install i2c_i801

and it is working. I'm OK with this workaround, but I can do more
experiments if you instruct me what to try.

Thanks,

Martin

Yes, and it should not do that, since the range can be used to access
different segments of the same chip from multiple drivers. This region
should only be reserved temporarily, using request_muxed_region() when
needed and release_region() after the access is complete. Either case,
I don't immediately see why that region would be interesting for the
iTCO watchdog driver.

Can you add some debugging into the i801 driver to see what memory regions
it reserves, and how it gets to reserve 0x2e..0x31 ? That range really
doesn't make any sense to me.

Thanks,

in the function i801_add_tco() in drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-i801.c
(line 1601 in 5.4.21), there is this code:

        /*
         * Power Management registers.
         */
        devfn = PCI_DEVFN(PCI_SLOT(pci_dev->devfn), 2);
        pci_bus_read_config_dword(pci_dev->bus, devfn, ACPIBASE, &base_addr);

        res = &tco_res[ICH_RES_IO_SMI];
        res->start = (base_addr & ~1) + ACPIBASE_SMI_OFF;
        res->end = res->start + 3;
        res->flags = IORESOURCE_IO;

base_addr is 0xffffffff after pci_bus_read_config_dword() call.
ACPIBASE_SMI_OFF is 0x030, therefore res->start is 0x2e.
Not that I understand even a bit of this...

Outch. This means that the code is broken. ACPIBASE is not configured,
or disabled, or the code reads from the wrong PCI configuration register.
What I don't understand is why this works with v5.3 kernels; the code
looks just as bad there for me. I must be missing something. Either case,
the only thing you can really do at this point is to blacklist the
iTCO_wdt driver.

Other than that, we can only hope that someone who understands above
code can provide a fix. Maybe Wolfram has an idea.

I have disabled the watchdog subsystem in kernel config (v5.5.5)
and the modprobe.d workaround and sensors are working.

I'd love to but I don't know much about ACPI and its resource handling.
This is really Jean's realm, and and Jarkko, Andy, and Mika work with
this driver, too. Let's hope they can provide feedback after the
weekend.

Indeed it looks like the code reads from a register that is not there
anymore in this generation hardware, or something like that. It tries to
read the PMC (1f.2) register add address 0x40 which is supposed to be
base of ACPI PM registers but that does not seem to exist any more in
newer chipset.

We'll look into this more and return back.

I'm wondering if

Well that might also be the case since lspci shows this:

00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Z390 Chipset LPC/eSPI Controller (rev 10)
00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH cAVS (rev 10)
00:1f.4 SMBus: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH SMBus Controller (rev 10)

PMC is 1f.2 and not present here. However, it may be that the PMC is
still there it just does not "enumerate" because its devid/vendorid are
set to 0xffff. Similar hiding was done for the P2SB bridge.

Actually I think this is the case here.

I don't know the iTCO_wdt well enough to say if it could live without
the ICH_RES_IO_SMI. It looks like this register is used to disable SMI
generation but not sure how well it works if it is left to BIOS to
configure. I suppose these systems should use WDAT instead.

Martin, can you try the below patch?

Hello,

with the patch applied, the sensors are working, dmesg says:
...
[    2.804423] i801_smbus 0000:00:1f.4: SPD Write Disable is set
[    2.804478] i801_smbus 0000:00:1f.4: SMBus using PCI interrupt

...

and there is no "002e-0031" line in /proc/ioports.

Great, thanks for testing. I'll make an updated patch as suggested by
Guenter that makes the SMI resource optional and send it to you guys.

In practice the region is only used if
	if (turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off >= p->iTCO_version) {
where turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off is 1 by default. It is also
passed to vendor specific code, but that is only relevant for
really old systems. In short, it isn't really needed for any
recent-generation systems, and could be made optional with
a few lines of code in iTCO_wdt.c.

Indeed that seems to be the case. Let me come up with a series that
makes the SMI optional and fixes the problematic code in the i801 driver
by not passing the SMI resource if the PMC device is not present.

I don't think you need to revert that to test, just move back
Cannon Lake to use iTCO Version 4 in i801_probe().

Something like this:
