On hip06, the accesses to LPC peripherals work in an indirect way. A
corresponding LPC driver configure some registers in LPC master at first, then
the real accesses on LPC slave devices are finished by the LPC master, which
is transparent to LPC driver.
This patch implement the relevant driver for Hip06 LPC. Cooperating with
indirect-IO, ipmi messages is in service without any changes on ipmi driver.

I have to look at patch 2 in more detail again, after missing a few review
rounds. I'm still a bit skeptical about hardcoding a logical I/O port
range here, and would hope that we can just go through the same
assignment of logical port ranges that we have for PCI buses, decoupling
the bus addresses from the linux-internal ones.

The point here is that we want to avoid any conflict/overlap between
the LPC I/O space and the PCI I/O space. With the assignment above
we make sure that LPC never interfere with PCI I/O space.

But we already abstract the PCI I/O space using dynamic registration.
There is no need to hardcode the logical address for ISA, though
I think we can hardcode the bus address to start at zero here.

Do you means that we can pick up the maximal I/O address from all children's
device resources??

The driver should not look at the resources of its children, just
register a range of addresses dynamically, as I suggested in an
earlier review.


Your current version has

        if (arm64_extio_ops->pfout)                             \
                arm64_extio_ops->pfout(arm64_extio_ops->devpara,\
                       addr, value, sizeof(type));             \

Instead, just subtract the start of the range from the logical
port number to transform it back into a bus-local port number:

        if (arm64_extio_ops->pfout)                             \
                arm64_extio_ops->pfout(arm64_extio_ops->devpara,\
                       addr - arm64_extio_ops->start, value, sizeof(type)); \

We know that the ISA/LPC bus can only have up to 65536 ports,
so you can register all of those, or possibly limit it further to
1024 or 4096 ports, whichever matches the bus implementation.

Sorry! I can't catch your idea yet:(

When to register the I/O range? Is it done just after the successfully
of_translate_address() during the children scanning?

If yes, when a child is scanning, there is no range data in arm64_extio_ops. The
addr_is_indirect_io() calling in of_get_isa_indirect_io() don't need. All we can
check is just whether the address to be translated is IO and is under a parent
device which has no 'ranges' property.

I think there is some information needed sync.
In the old patch-set, we don't bypass the pci_address_to_pio() after
successfully of_translate_address(). In this way, we don't need to reserve any
PIO space for our LPC since the logical port are from the same mapping
algorithm. Based on this way, the port number in the device resource is logical
one, then we need to subtract the start of the resource to get back the
bus-local port.

From V3, we don't apply the mapping based on pci_address_to_pio(), the
of_translate_address() return the bus-local port directly and store into
relevant device resource. So, in the current arm64_extio_ops->pfout(), the
reverse translation don't need anymore. The input "addr" is bus-local port now.

Zhichang

Where should we get the range from? For LPC we know that it is going
Work on anything that is not used by PCI I/O space, and this is 
why we use [0, PCIBIOS_MIN_IO]

These accessors do not operate on IO tokens:

If (arm64_extio_ops->start > addr || arm64_extio_ops->end < addr)
addr is not going to be an I/O token; in fact patch 2/3 imposes that
the I/O tokens will start at PCIBIOS_MIN_IO. So from 0 to PCIBIOS_MIN_IO
we have free physical addresses that the accessors can operate on.

It should be allocated the same way we allocate PCI config space
segments. This is currently done with the io_range list in
drivers/pci/pci.c, which isn't perfect but could be extended
if necessary. Based on what others commented here, I'd rather
make the differences between ISA/LPC and PCI I/O ranges smaller
than larger.

Ah, I missed that part. I'd rather not use PCIBIOS_MIN_IO to refer to
the logical I/O tokens, the purpose of that macro is really meant
for allocating PCI I/O port numbers within the address space of
one bus.

Note that it's equally likely that whichever next platform needs
non-mapped I/O access like this actually needs them for PCI I/O space,
and that will use it on addresses registered to a PCI host bridge.

If we separate the two steps:

a) assign a range of logical I/O port numbers to a bus
b) register a set of helpers for redirecting logical I/O
   port to a helper function

then I think the code will get cleaner and more flexible.
It should actually then be able to replace the powerpc
specific implementation.

It seems that we need to add a new bus and the corresponding resource management
which can also cover current PCI pio mapping, is it right?

Except that currently when we add ranges to io_range_list we don't have
a bus number yet, because the parsing happens before the host bridge
has been created. Maybe register_io_range() can take a bus number as an
argument, but I'm not sure how we are going to use that in pci_pio_to_address()
or pci_address_to_pio().

I am not sure this would make sense...

IMHO all the mechanism around io_range_list is needed to provide the
"mapping" between I/O tokens and physical CPU addresses.

Currently the available tokens range from 0 to IO_SPACE_LIMIT.

As you know the I/O memory accessors operate on whatever
__of_address_to_resource sets into the resource (start, end).

With this special device in place we cannot know if a resource is
assigned with an I/O token or a physical address, unless we forbid
the I/O tokens to be in a specific range.

So this is why we are changing the offsets of all the functions
handling io_range_list (to make sure that a range is forbidden to
the tokens and is available to the physical addresses).

We have chosen this forbidden range to be [0, PCIBIOS_MIN_IO)
because this is the maximum physical I/O range that a non PCI device
can operate on and because we believe this does not impose much
restriction on the available I/O token range; that now is 
[PCIBIOS_MIN_IO, IO_SPACE_LIMIT].
So we believe that the chosen forbidden range can accommodate
any special ISA bus device with no much constraint on the rest
of I/O tokens...

As I mentioned above, special devices operate on CPU addresses directly,
not I/O tokens. For them there is no way to distinguish....

Ok so here you are talking about a platform that has got an I/O range
under the PCI host controller, right?
And this I/O range cannot be directly memory mapped but needs special
redirections for the I/O tokens, right?

In this scenario registering the I/O ranges with the forbidden range
implemented by the current patch would still allow to redirect I/O
tokens as long as arm64_extio_ops->start >= PCIBIOS_MIN_IO

So effectively the special PCI host controller
1) knows the physical range that needs special redirection
2) register such range
3) uses pci_pio_to_address() to retrieve the IO tokens for the
   special accessors
4) sets arm64_extio_ops->start/end to the IO tokens retrieved in 3)

So to be honest I think this patch can fit well both with
special PCI controllers that need I/O tokens redirection and with
special non-PCI controllers that need non-PCI I/O physical
address redirection...

Thanks (and sorry for the long reply but I didn't know how
to make the explanation shorter :) )

Your idea is a good one, however you are abusing PCIBIOS_MIN_IO and you
actually need another variable for "reserving" an area in the I/O space
that can be used for physical addresses rather than I/O tokens.

The one good example for using PCIBIOS_MIN_IO is when your platform/architecture
does not support legacy ISA operations *at all*. In that case someone
sets the PCIBIOS_MIN_IO to a non-zero value to reserve that I/O range
so that it doesn't get used. With Zhichang's patch you now start forcing
those platforms to have a valid address below PCIBIOS_MIN_IO.

For the general case you also have to bear in mind that PCIBIOS_MIN_IO could
be zero. In that case, what is your "forbidden" range? [0, 0) ? So it makes
sense to add a new #define that should only be defined by those architectures/
platforms that want to reserve on top of PCIBIOS_MIN_IO another region
where I/O tokens can't be generated for.

But if PCIBIOS_MIN_IO is 0 then it means that all I/O space is to be used
by PCI controllers only...so if you have a special bus device using
an I/O range in this case should be a PCI controller...i.e. I would
expect it to fall back into the case of I/O tokens redirection rather than
physical addresses redirection (as mentioned below from my previous reply).
What do you think?

I think selecting PCIBIOS_MIN_IO as the separator of mapped and non-mapped I/O
range probably is not so reasonable.
PCIBIOS_MIN_IN is specific to PCI devices, it seems as the recommended minimal
start I/O address when assigning the pci device I/O region. It is probably not
defined in some platforms/architectures when no PCI is needed there. That is why
my patch caused some compile error on some archs;

But more important thing is that the PCIBIOS_MIN_IO has different value on
different platforms/architectures. On Arm64, it is 4K currently, but in other
archs, it is not true. And the maximum LPC I/O address should be 64K
theoretically, although for compatible ISA, 2K is enough.
So, It means using PCIBIOS_MIN_IO on arm64 can match our I/O reservation
require. But we can not make this indirectIO work well on other architectures.

I am thinking Arnd's suggestion. But I worry about I haven't completely
understood his idea. What about create a new bus host for LPC/ISA whose I/O
range can be 64KB? This LPC/ISA I/O range works similar to PCI host bridge's I/O
window, all the downstream devices under LPC/ISA should request I/O from that
root resource. But it seems Arnd want this root resource registered dynamically,
I am not sure how to do...

Anyway, if we have this root I/O resource, we don't need any new macro or
variable for the LPC/ISA I/O reservation.

Hope my thought is right.

Best,
Zhichang

Nope, that is not what it means. It means that PCI devices can see I/O addresses
on the bus that start from 0. There never was any usage for non-PCI controllers
when PCIBIOS_MIN_IO != 0. That is what Zhichang is trying to do now and what
I think is not the right thing (and not enough anyway).

That has always been the case. It is this series that wants to introduce the
new meaning.

I think you have looked too much at the code *with* Zhichang's patches applied.
Take a step back and look at how PCIBIOS_MIN_IO is used now, before you apply
the patches. It is all about PCI addresses and there is no notion of non-PCI
busses using PCI framework. Only platforms and architectures that try to work
around some legacy standards (ISA) or HW restrictions.

So I am a bit confused...
From http://www.firmware.org/1275/bindings/isa/isa0_4d.ps
It seems that ISA buses operate on cpu I/O address range [0, 0xFFF].
I thought that was the reason why for most architectures we have
PCIBIOS_MIN_IO equal to 0x1000 (so I thought that ISA controllers
usually use [0, PCIBIOS_MIN_IO - 1] )

For those architectures whose PCIBIOS_MIN_IO != 0x1000 probably
they are not fully compliant or they cannot fully support an ISA
controller...?

As said before this series forbid IO tokens to be in [0, PCIBIOS_MIN_IO)
to allow special ISA controllers to use that range with special
accessors.
Having a variable threshold would make life much more difficult
as there would be a probe dependency between the PCI controller and
the special ISA one (PCI to wait for the special ISA device to be
probed and set the right threshold value from DT or ACPI table).

Instead using PCIBIOS_MIN_IO is easier and should not impose much
constraint as [PCIBIOS_MIN_IO, IO_SPACE_LIMIT] is available to
the PCI controller for I/O tokens...

Pedantically ISA starts at 0x100. The LPC may start at 0x00 as it also
covers motherboard devices (0x00-0xFF). It is also possible that the
'LPC' space is only partially routed to the PCI bridges because some if
it magially disappears on CPU die (at least on x86) and has done since
the era of socket 7 (eg the Cyrix 6x86 doesn't route 0x22/0x23 out of the
CPU).

Assuming LPC starts at 0 ought to be ok given the PCI root bridge
shouldn't see the transactions.

The LPC or it's equivalent may also not be routed via the PCI bridges at
all, so you could have an LPC mapping that is unused or partially used
with another bus actually getting some classes of LPC traffic - on x86 at
least.

First of all, cpu I/O addresses is an x86-ism. ARM architectures and others
 have no separate address space for I/O, it is all merged into one unified
address space. So, on arm/arm64 for example, PCIBIOS_MIN_IO = 0 could mean
that we don't care about ISA I/O because the platform does not support having
an ISA bus (e.g.).

Exactly. Not fully compliant is a bit strong, as ISA is a legacy feature and
when it comes to PCI-e you are allowed to ignore it. Having PCIBIOS_MIN_IO != 0x1000
is a way to signal that you don't fully support ISA.

What I am suggesting is to leave PCIBIOS_MIN_IO alone which still reserves
space for ISA controller and add a PCIBIOS_MIN_DIRECT_IO that will reserve
space for your direct address I/O on top of PCIBIOS_MIN_IO.

I think to be more specific, PCIBIOS_MIN_IO=0 would indicate that you cannot
have a PCI-to-ISA or PCI-to-LPC bridge in any PCI domain. This is different
from having an LPC master outside of PCI, as that lives in its own domain
and has a separately addressable I/O space.

The PCIBIOS_MIN_DIRECT_IO name still suggests having something related to
PCIBIOS_MIN_IO, but it really isn't. We are talking about multiple
concepts here that are not the same but that are somewhat related:

a) keeping PCI devices from allocating low I/O ports on the PCI bus
   that would conflict with ISA devices behind a bridge of the
   same bus.

b) reserving the low 0x0-0xfff range of the Linux-internal I/O
   space abstraction to a particular LPC or PCI domain to make
   legacy device drivers work that hardcode a particular port
   number.

c) Redirecting inb/outb to call a domain-specific accessor function
   rather than doing the normal MMIO window for an LPC master or
   more generally any arbitrary LPC or PCI domain that has a
   nonstandard I/O space. 
   [side note: actually if we generalized this, we could avoid
    assigning an MMIO range for the I/O space on the pci-mvebu
    driver, and that would help free up some other remapping
    windows]

I think there is no need to change a) here, we have PCIBIOS_MIN_IO
today and even if we don't need it, there is no obvious downside.
I would also argue that we can ignore b) for the discussion of
the HiSilicon LPC driver, we just need to assign some range
of logical addresses to each domain.

That means solving c) is the important problem here, and it
shouldn't be so hard.  We can do this either with a single
special domain as in the v5 patch series, or by generalizing it
so that any I/O space mapping gets looked up through the device
pointer of the bus master.

No, you do it when first finding the bus itself, just like we do for

The children should only be scanned after the I/O range has been
registered for the parent.

Ok, so this would have to be changed again: If we want to support multiple
bus domains, of_translate_address() must translate between the bus specific
address and the general Linux I/O port number. Even without doing that,
it seems nicer to not overlap the range of the first PCI host bridge.

Yes correct so if we go for the single domain solution arch that
have PCIBIOS_MIN_IO=0 cannot support special devices such as LPC
unless we also redefine PCIBIOS_MIN_IO, right?

I am not very on the "generalized" multi-domain solution...
Currently the IO accessors prototypes have an unsigned long addr
as input parameter. If we live in a multi-domain IO system
how can we distinguish inside the accessor which domain addr
belongs to?

This is what I was referring to below as the difference between
a) and b): Setting PCIBIOS_MIN_IO=0 means you cannot have LPC
behind PCI, but it shouldn't stop you from having a separate
LPC bridge.

The easiest change compared to the v5 code would be to walk
a linked list of 'struct extio_ops' structures rather than
assuming there is only ever one of them. I think one of the
earlier versions actually did this.

Another option the IA64 approach mentioned in another subthread
today, looking up the operations based on an index from the
upper bits of the port number. If we do this, we probably
want to do that for all PIO access and replace the entire
virtual address remapping logic with that. I think Bjorn
in the past argued in favor of such an approach, while I
advocated the current scheme for simplicity based on how
every I/O space these days is just memory mapped (which now
turned out to be false, both on powerpc and arm64).

Right but if my understanding is correct if we live in a multi-
domain I/O space world when you have an input addr in the I/O
accessors this addr can be duplicated (for example for the standard
PCI IO domain and for our special LPC domain).
So effectively even if you walk a linked list there is a problem
of disambiguation...am I right?

This seems really complex...I am a bit worried that possibly
we end up in having the maintainers saying that it is not worth
to re-invent the world just for this special LPC device...

To be honest with you I would keep things simple for this
LPC and introduce more complex reworks later if more devices
need to be introduced.

What if we stick on a single domain now where we introduce a
reserved threshold for the IO space (say INDIRECT_MAX_IO).

We define INDIRECT_MAX_IO as 0 in "include/linux/extio.h" and
we define INDIRECT_MAX_IO as 0x1000 in "arch/arm64/include/asm/io.h"

So effectively this threshold can change according to the
architecture and so far we only define it for ARM64 as we need
it for ARM64...

Thoughts?

Thanks again

No, unlike the PCI memory space, the PIO addresses are not
usually distinct, i.e. every PCI bus has its own 64K I/O
addresses starting at zero. We linearize them into the
Linux I/O space using the per-domain io_offset value.

For the ISA/LPC spaces there are only 4k of addresses, they
the bus addresses always overlap, but we can trivially
figure out the bus address from Linux I/O port number
by subtracting the start of the range.

It would clearly be a rather invasive change, but the
end-result isn't necessarily more complex than what we
have today, as we'd kill off the crazy pci_pio_to_address()
and pci_address_to_pio() hacks in address translation.

I said having a single domain is fine, but I still don't
like the idea of reserving low port numbers for this hack,
it would mean that the numbers change for everyone else.

I liked the idea of having it done in asm-generic/io.h (in an ifdef)
and lib/*.c under an as someone suggested earlier. There is nothing
ARM64 specific in the implementation.

I am going to summarize my understanding here below:

It seems to me that what is linearized is the virtual address
space associated to the IO address space. This address space
goes from PCI_IOBASE to (PCI_IOBASE + IO_SPACE_LIMIT).

The I/O accessors perform rd/wr operation on this address
space using a port IO token.

Each token map into a cpu physical address range
Each cpu physical address range maps to a bus address range
if the bus controller specifies a range property.

Devices under a bus controller specify the bus addresses that
they operate on in their reg property.

So each device can use the same bus addresses under two
separate bus controllers as long as the bus controller
use the range properties to map the same bus range to different
cpu address range.

Are you saying that our LPC controller should specify a
range property to map bus addresses into a cpu address range?

I have to look better into this...can you provide me a reference
to the Bjorn argument in favor of this approach?

I don't get this much...I/O tokens that are passed to the I/O
accessors are not fixed anyway and they vary depending on the order
of adding ranges to io_range_list...so I don't see a big issue
with this...

Correct and ideally if the INDIRECT_MAX_IO approach was taken then we
should define INDIRECT_MAX_IO for any architecture that can support the
special LPC devices. We would define it for ARM64 just because LPC
is used in our case under ARM64; the idea was to leave other architecture
to define their own ones as needed...but probably this is wrong and
we should have defined this for all the architectures.

Sounds all correct to me so far, yes.

No. There is not CPU address associated with it, because it's
not memory mapped.

Instead, we need to associate a bus address with a logical
Linux port number, both in of_address_to_resource and
in inb()/outb().

The thread seems to have been pci: Introduce pci_register_io_range()
helper function, e.g. in https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/8/969

On machines with a legacy devices behind the PCI bridge,
there may still be a reason to have the low I/O port range
reserved for the primary bus, e.g. to get a VGA text console
to work.

On powerpc, this is called the "primary" PCI host, i.e. the
only one that is allowed to have an ISA bridge.

I think this is effectively what we are doing so far with patch 2/3.
The problem with this patch is that we are carving out a "forbidden"
IO tokens range that goes from 0 to PCIBIOS_MIN_IO.

I think that the proper solution would be to have the LPC driver to
set the carveout threshold used in pci_register_io_range(), 
pci_pio_to_address(), pci_address_to_pio(), but this would impose
a probe dependency on the LPC itself that should be probed before
the PCI controller (or before any other devices calling these
functions...)

Yes but
1) isn't the PCI controller range property that defines how IO bus address
   map into physical CPU addresses?
2) How can you guarantee that the cpu range associated with this
   IO bus range is the first to be registered in pci_register_io_range()?
   ( i.e. are you saying that they are just relying on the fact that it is the
     only IO range in the system and by chance the IO tokens and corresponding
     bus addresses are the same? )

Why do you think the order matters? My point was that we should
be able to register any region of logical port numbers for any
bus here.

Correct, but the DT knows nothing about logical port numbers in Linux.

To clarify: the special properties of having the first 0x1000 logical
port numbers go to a particular physical bus are very obscure. I think
it's more important to not change the behavior for existing systems
that might rely on it than for new systems that have no such legacy.

The ipmi and uart drivers in particular will get the port numbers filled
in their platform device from the DT bus scanning, so they don't care
at all about having the same numeric value for port numbers on the bus
and logical numbers, but other drivers might rely on particular ports
to be mapped on a specific PCI host, especially when those drivers
are  used only on systems that don't have more than one PCI domain.

Maybe I have not followed well so let's roll back to your previous
comment...

"we need to associate a bus address with a logical Linux port number,
both in of_address_to_resource and in inb()/outb()"

Actually of_address_to_resource() returns the port number to used
in inb/outb(); inb() and outb() add the port number to PCI_IOBASE
to rd/wr to the right virtual address.

Our LPC cannot operate on the virtual address and it operates on
a bus address range that for LPC is also equal to the cpu address
range and goes from 0 to 0x1000.

Now as I understand it is risky and not appropriate to reserve
the logical port numbers from 0 to 0x1000 or to whatever other
upper bound because existing systems may rely on these port numbers
retrieved by __of_address_to_resource().

In this scenario I think the best thing to do would be
in the probe function of the LPC driver:
1) call pci_register_io_range() passing [0, 0x1000] (that is the
   range for LPC)
2) retrieve the logical port numbers associated to the LPC range
   by calling pci_address_to_pio() for 0 and 0x1000 and assign
   them to extio_ops_node->start and extio_ops_node->end
3) implement the LPC accessors to operate on the logical ports
   associated to the LPC range (in practice in the accessors
   implementation we will call pci_pio_to_address to retrieve
   the cpu address to operate on)

What do you think?

Thanks

There is no "cpu address" here, otherwise this is correct.

Right again.

pci_register_io_range() takes a physical address, not a port number,
so that would not be appropriate as you say above. We can however
add a variant that reserves a range of port numbers in io_range_list
for an indirect access method.

Again, calling pci_address_to_pio() doesn't seem right here, because
we don't have a phys_addr_t address

Please don't proliferate the use of
pci_pio_to_address/pci_address_to_pio here, computing the physical
address from the logical address is trivial, you just need to
subtract the start of the range that you already use when matching
the port number range.

The only thing we need here is to make of_address_to_resource()
return the correct logical port number that was registered for
a given host device when asked to translate an address that
does not have a CPU address associated with it.
