Specifically, these are the memory devices defined by section 8.2.8.5 of the CXL 2.0 spec. A reference implementation emulating these devices has been submitted to the QEMU mailing list and is available on gitlab [3]. “Type-3” is a CXL device that acts as a memory expander for RAM or PMEM. It might be interleaved with other CXL devices in a given physical address range. These changes allow for foundational enumeration of CXL 2.0 memory devices as well as basic userspace interaction. The functionality present is: - Initial driver bring-up - Device enumeration and an initial sysfs representation - Submit a basic firmware command via ‘mailbox’ to an emulated memory device with non-volatile capacity. - Provide an interface to send "raw" commands to the hardware. Some of the functionality that is still missing includes: - Memory interleaving at the host bridge, root port, or switch level - CXL 1.1 Root Complex Integrated Endpoint Support - CXL 2.0 Hot plug support - A bevy of supported device commands In addition to the core functionality of discovering the spec defined registers and resources, introduce a CXL device model that will be the foundation for translating CXL capabilities into existing Linux infrastructure for Persistent Memory and other memory devices. For now, this only includes support for the management command mailbox that type-3 devices surface. These control devices fill the role of “DIMMs” / nmemX memory-devices in LIBNVDIMM terms. Now, while implementing the driver some feedback for the specification was generated to cover perceived gaps and address conflicts. The feedback is presented as a reference implementation in the driver and QEMU emulation. Specifically the following concepts are original to the Linux implementation and feedback / collaboration is requested to develop these into specification proposals: 1. Top level ACPI object (ACPI0017) 2. HW imposed address space and interleave constraints ACPI0017 -------- Introduce a new ACPI namespace device with an _HID of ACPI0017. The purpose of this object is twofold, support a legacy OS with a set of out-of-tree CXL modules, and establish an attach point for a driver that knows about interleaving. Both of these boil down to the same point, to centralize Operating System support for resources described by the CXL Early Discovery Table (CEDT). The legacy OS problem stems from the spec's description of a host bridge, ACPI0016 is denoted as the _HID for host bridges, with a _CID of PNP0A08. In a CXL unaware version of Linux, the core ACPI subsystem will bind a driver to PNP0A08 and preclude a CXL-aware driver from binding to ACPI0016. An ACPI0017 device allows a standalone CXL-aware driver to register for handling / coordinating CEDT and CXL-specific _OSC control. Similarly when managing interleaving there needs to be some management layer above the ACPI0016 device that is capable of assembling leaf nodes into interleave sets. As is the case with ACPI0012 that does this central coordination for NFIT defined resources, ACPI0017 does the same for CEDT described resources. Memory Windows ------- For CXL.mem capable platforms, there is a need for a mechanism for platform firmware to make the Operating System aware of any restrictions that hardware might have in address space. For example, in a system with 4 host bridges all participating in an interleave set, the firmware needs to provide some description of this. That information is missing from the CXL 2.0 spec as of today and it also is not implemented in the driver. A variety of ACPI based mechanisms, for example _CRS fields on the ACPI0017 device, were considered. Next steps after this basic foundation is expanded command support and LIBNVDIMM integration. This is the initial “release early / release often” version of the Linux CXL enabling.
