Re: [PATCH v2] cxl: Check if PSL data-cache is available before issue flush request

On 16/02/18 02:49, Vaibhav Jain wrote:

PSL9D doesn't have a data-cache that needs to be flushed before
resetting the card. However when cxl tries to flush data-cache on such
a card, it times-out as PSL_Control register never indicates flush
operation complete due to missing data-cache. This is usually
indicated in the kernel logs with this message:

"WARNING: cache flush timed out"

To fix this the patch checks PSL_Debug register CDC-Field(BIT:27)
which indicates the absence of a data-cache and sets a flag
'no_data_cache' in 'struct cxl_native' to indicate this. When
cxl_data_cache_flush() is called it checks the flag and if set bails
out early without requesting a data-cache flush operation to the PSL.
