For the i.MX95, configuration of a LUT is necessary to convert Bus Device Function (BDF) to stream IDs, which are utilized by both IOMMU and ITS. This involves examining the msi-map and smmu-map to ensure consistent mapping of PCI BDF to the same stream IDs. Subsequently, LUT-related registers are configured. In the absence of an msi-map, the built-in MSI controller is utilized as a fallback. Additionally, register a PCI bus notifier to trigger imx_pcie_add_device() upon the appearance of a new PCI device and when the bus is an iMX6 PCI controller. This function configures the correct LUT based on Device Tree Settings (DTS).This scheme is pretty similar to apple_pcie_bus_notifier(). If we have to do this, I wish it were *more* similar, i.e., copy the function names, bitmap tracking, code structure, etc. I don't really know how stream IDs work, but I assume they are used on most or all arm64 platforms, so I'm a little surprised that of all the PCI host drivers used on arm64, only pcie-apple.c and pci-imx6.c need this notifier.This is one of those things that's mostly at the mercy of the PCIe root complex implementation. Typically the SMMU StreamID and/or GIC ITS DeviceID is derived directly from the PCI RID, sometimes with additional high-order bits hard-wired to disambiguate PCI segments. I believe this RID-translation LUT is a particular feature of the the Synopsys IP - I know there's also one on the NXP Layerscape platforms, but on those it's programmed by the bootloader, which also generates the appropriate "msi-map" and "iommu-map" properties to match. Ideally that's what i.MX should do as well, but hey.Maybe this RID-translation is a feature of i.MX, not of Synopsys? I see that the LUT CSR accesses use IMX95_* definitions.Yes, it convert 16bit RID to 6bit stream id.IIUC, you're saying this is not a Synopsys feature, it's an i.MX feature.Yes, it is i.MX feature. But I think other vendor should have similar situation if use old arm smmu.quoted

If it's really necessary to do this programming from Linux, then there's still no point in it being dynamic - the mappings cannot ever change, since the rest of the kernel believes that what the DT said at boot time was already a property of the hardware. It would be a lot more logical, and likely simpler, for the driver to just read the relevant map property and program the entire LUT to match, all in one go at controller probe time. Rather like what's already commonly done with the parsing of "dma-ranges" to program address-translation LUTs for inbound windows. Plus that would also give a chance of safely dealing with bad DTs specifying invalid ID mappings (by refusing to probe at all). As it is, returning an error from a child's BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE does nothing except prevent any further notifiers from running at that point - the device will still be added, allowed to bind a driver, and able to start sending DMA/MSI traffic without the controller being correctly programmed, which at best won't work and at worst may break the whole system.Frank, could the imx LUT be programmed once at boot-time instead of at device-add time? I'm guessing maybe not because apparently there is a risk of running out of LUT entries?It is not good idea to depend on boot loader so much.I meant "could this be programmed once when the Linux imx host controller driver is probed?" But from the below, it sounds like that's not possible in general because you don't have enough stream IDs to do that.Oh! sorry miss understand what your means. It is possible like what I did at v3 version. But I think it is not good enough.quoted

Some hot plug devics (SD7.0) may plug after system boot. Two PCIe instances shared one set of 6bits stream id (total 64). Assume total 16 assign to two PCIe controllers. each have 8 stream id. If use uboot assign it static, each PCIe controller have below 8 devices. It will be failrue one controller connect 7, another connect 9. but if dynamtic alloc when devices add, both controller can work. Although we have not so much devices now, this way give us possility to improve it in future.quoted
It sounds like the consequences of running out of LUT entries are catastrophic, e.g., memory corruption from mis-directed DMA? If that's possible, I think we need to figure out how to prevent the device from being used, not just dev_warn() about it.Yes, but so far, we have not met such problem now. We can improve it when we really face such problem.If this controller can only support DMA from a limited number of endpoints below it, I think we should figure out how to enforce that directly. Maybe we can prevent drivers from enabling bus mastering or something. I'm not happy with the idea of waiting for and debugging a report of data corruption.It may add a pre-add hook function to pci bridge. let me do more research.Hi Bjorn: int pci_setup_device(struct pci_dev *dev) { dev->error_state = pci_channel_io_normal; ... pci_fixup_device(pci_fixup_early, dev); ^^^ I can add fixup hook for pci_fixup_early. If not resource, I can set dev->error_state to pci_channel_io_frozen or pci_channel_io_perm_failure And add below check here after call hook function. if (dev->error_state != pci_channel_io_normal) return -EIO; } How do you think this method? If you agree, I can continue search device remove hook up.I think this would mean the device would not appear to be enumerated at all, right? I.e., it wouldn't show up in lspci? And we couldn't use even a pure programmed IO driver with no DMA or MSI?Make sense. Let me do more research on this. Frankquoted
I wonder if we should have a function pointer in struct pci_host_bridge, kind of like the existing ->map_irq(), where we could do host bridge-specific setup when enumerating a PCI device.Consider some device may no use MSI or DMA. It'd better set LUT when allocate msi irq. I think insert a irq-domain in irq hierarchy. static const struct irq_domain_ops lut_pcie_msi_domain_ops = { .alloc = lut_pcie_irq_domain_alloc, .free = lut_pcie_irq_domain_free, }; int dw_pcie_allocate_domains(struct dw_pcie_rp *pp) { struct fwnode_handle *fwnode = of_node_to_fwnode(pci->dev->of_node); pp->irq_domain = irq_domain_create_hierarchy(...) pp->msi_domain = pci_msi_create_irq_domain(...); return 0; } Manage lut stream id in lut_pcie_irq_domain_alloc() and lut_pcie_irq_domain_free(). So failure happen only when driver use MSI and no-stream ID avaiable. It should be better than failure when add devices. Some devices may not use at all.I'm not an IRQ expert, but it sounds plausible. There might even be an opportunity to fall back to INTx if there's no stream ID available for MSI?Sorry, I think this was a half-baked thought. Exhaustion of stream IDs should be an uncommon situation, and the important thing is to prevent terrible things from happening. I don't think it's worth bending over backwards to make everything possible limp along. If it's easy to just make the device inaccessible, that's fine. If there's a simple way to make it available but keep from enabling bus mastering, we could do that too, but only if it's really simple.
Mani mentions qcom use simple method to config all lut when probe at qcom_pcie_config_sid_1_9_0(). It is similar with my v3 version. https://lore.kernel.org/imx/20240402-pci2_upstream-v3-8-803414bdb430@nxp.com/ (local) Of course both have not resolved run-out sid problems. But genenerally, one PCIE slot only connect one devices. static alloc 8/16 sid are enough for 99.9% user case. best regards Frank Li
