Overview
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
The CXL spec defines a set of commands that can be issued to the mailbox of a
|
|
CXL device or switch. It also left room for vendor specific commands to be
|
|
issued to the mailbox as well. fwctl provides a path to issue a set of allowed
|
|
mailbox commands from user space to the device moderated by the kernel driver.
|
|
|
|
The following 3 commands will be used to support CXL Features:
|
|
CXL spec r3.1 8.2.9.6.1 Get Supported Features (Opcode 0500h)
|
|
CXL spec r3.1 8.2.9.6.2 Get Feature (Opcode 0501h)
|
|
CXL spec r3.1 8.2.9.6.3 Set Feature (Opcode 0502h)
|
|
|
|
The "Get Supported Features" return data may be filtered by the kernel driver to
|
|
drop any features that are forbidden by the kernel or being exclusively used by
|
|
the kernel. The driver will set the "Set Feature Size" of the "Get Supported
|
|
Features Supported Feature Entry" to 0 to indicate that the Feature cannot be
|
|
modified. The "Get Supported Features" command and the "Get Features" falls
|
|
under the fwctl policy of FWCTL_RPC_CONFIGURATION.
|
|
|
|
For "Set Feature" command, the access policy currently is broken down into two
|
|
categories depending on the Set Feature effects reported by the device. If the
|
|
Set Feature will cause immediate change to the device, the fwctl access policy
|
|
must be FWCTL_RPC_DEBUG_WRITE_FULL. The effects for this level are
|
|
"immediate config change", "immediate data change", "immediate policy change",
|
|
or "immediate log change" for the set effects mask. If the effects are "config
|
|
change with cold reset" or "config change with conventional reset", then the
|
|
fwctl access policy must be FWCTL_RPC_DEBUG_WRITE or higher.

fwctl cxl User API
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/fwctl/cxl.h
|
|
|
|
1. Driver info query
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
First step for the app is to issue the ioctl(FWCTL_CMD_INFO). Successful
|
|
invocation of the ioctl implies the Features capability is operational and
|
|
returns an all zeros 32bit payload. A ``struct fwctl_info`` needs to be filled
|
|
out with the ``fwctl_info.out_device_type`` set to ``FWCTL_DEVICE_TYPE_CXL``.
|
|
The return data should be ``struct fwctl_info_cxl`` that contains a reserved
|
|
32bit field that should be all zeros.
|
|
|
|
2. Send hardware commands
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
Next step is to send the 'Get Supported Features' command to the driver from
|
|
user space via ioctl(FWCTL_RPC). A ``struct fwctl_rpc_cxl`` is pointed to
|
|
by ``fwctl_rpc.in``. ``struct fwctl_rpc_cxl.in_payload`` points to
|
|
the hardware input structure that is defined by the CXL spec. ``fwctl_rpc.out``
|
|
points to the buffer that contains a ``struct fwctl_rpc_cxl_out`` that includes
|
|
the hardware output data inlined as ``fwctl_rpc_cxl_out.payload``. This command
|
|
is called twice. First time to retrieve the number of features supported.
|
|
A second time to retrieve the specific feature details as the output data.
|
|
|
|
After getting the specific feature details, a Get/Set Feature command can be
|
|
appropriately programmed and sent. For a "Set Feature" command, the retrieved
|
|
feature info contains an effects field that details the resulting
|
|
"Set Feature" command will trigger. That will inform the user whether
|
|
the system is configured to allowed the "Set Feature" command or not.
