- Core:
The bulk is the rework of the MSI subsystem to support per device MSI
interrupt domains. This solves conceptual problems of the current
PCI/MSI design which are in the way of providing support for PCI/MSI[-X]
and the upcoming PCI/IMS mechanism on the same device.
IMS (Interrupt Message Store] is a new specification which allows device
manufactures to provide implementation defined storage for MSI messages
contrary to the uniform and specification defined storage mechanisms for
PCI/MSI and PCI/MSI-X. IMS not only allows to overcome the size limitations
of the MSI-X table, but also gives the device manufacturer the freedom to
store the message in arbitrary places, even in host memory which is shared
with the device.
There have been several attempts to glue this into the current MSI code,
but after lengthy discussions it turned out that there is a fundamental
design problem in the current PCI/MSI-X implementation. This needs some
historical background.
When PCI/MSI[-X] support was added around 2003, interrupt management was
completely different from what we have today in the actively developed
architectures. Interrupt management was completely architecture specific
and while there were attempts to create common infrastructure the
commonalities were rudimentary and just providing shared data structures and
interfaces so that drivers could be written in an architecture agnostic
way.
The initial PCI/MSI[-X] support obviously plugged into this model which
resulted in some basic shared infrastructure in the PCI core code for
setting up MSI descriptors, which are a pure software construct for holding
data relevant for a particular MSI interrupt, but the actual association to
Linux interrupts was completely architecture specific. This model is still
supported today to keep museum architectures and notorious stranglers
alive.
In 2013 Intel tried to add support for hot-pluggable IO/APICs to the kernel,
which was creating yet another architecture specific mechanism and resulted
in an unholy mess on top of the existing horrors of x86 interrupt handling.
The x86 interrupt management code was already an incomprehensible maze of
indirections between the CPU vector management, interrupt remapping and the
actual IO/APIC and PCI/MSI[-X] implementation.
At roughly the same time ARM struggled with the ever growing SoC specific
extensions which were glued on top of the architected GIC interrupt
controller.
This resulted in a fundamental redesign of interrupt management and
provided the today prevailing concept of hierarchical interrupt
domains. This allowed to disentangle the interactions between x86 vector
domain and interrupt remapping and also allowed ARM to handle the zoo of
SoC specific interrupt components in a sane way.
The concept of hierarchical interrupt domains aims to encapsulate the
functionality of particular IP blocks which are involved in interrupt
delivery so that they become extensible and pluggable. The X86
encapsulation looks like this:
|--- device 1
[Vector]---[Remapping]---[PCI/MSI]--|...
|--- device N
where the remapping domain is an optional component and in case that it is
not available the PCI/MSI[-X] domains have the vector domain as their
parent. This reduced the required interaction between the domains pretty
much to the initialization phase where it is obviously required to
establish the proper parent relation ship in the components of the
hierarchy.
While in most cases the model is strictly representing the chain of IP
blocks and abstracting them so they can be plugged together to form a
hierarchy, the design stopped short on PCI/MSI[-X]. Looking at the hardware
it's clear that the actual PCI/MSI[-X] interrupt controller is not a global
entity, but strict a per PCI device entity.
Here we took a short cut on the hierarchical model and went for the easy
solution of providing "global" PCI/MSI domains which was possible because
the PCI/MSI[-X] handling is uniform across the devices. This also allowed
to keep the existing PCI/MSI[-X] infrastructure mostly unchanged which in
turn made it simple to keep the existing architecture specific management
alive.
A similar problem was created in the ARM world with support for IP block
specific message storage. Instead of going all the way to stack a IP block
specific domain on top of the generic MSI domain this ended in a construct
which provides a "global" platform MSI domain which allows overriding the
irq_write_msi_msg() callback per allocation.
In course of the lengthy discussions we identified other abuse of the MSI
infrastructure in wireless drivers, NTB etc. where support for
implementation specific message storage was just mindlessly glued into the
existing infrastructure. Some of this just works by chance on particular
platforms but will fail in hard to diagnose ways when the driver is used
on platforms where the underlying MSI interrupt management code does not
expect the creative abuse.
Another shortcoming of today's PCI/MSI-X support is the inability to
allocate or free individual vectors after the initial enablement of
MSI-X. This results in an works by chance implementation of VFIO (PCI
pass-through) where interrupts on the host side are not set up upfront to
avoid resource exhaustion. They are expanded at run-time when the guest
actually tries to use them. The way how this is implemented is that the
host disables MSI-X and then re-enables it with a larger number of
vectors again. That works by chance because most device drivers set up
all interrupts before the device actually will utilize them. But that's
not universally true because some drivers allocate a large enough number
of vectors but do not utilize them until it's actually required,
e.g. for acceleration support. But at that point other interrupts of the
device might be in active use and the MSI-X disable/enable dance can
just result in losing interrupts and therefore hard to diagnose subtle
problems.
Last but not least the "global" PCI/MSI-X domain approach prevents to
utilize PCI/MSI[-X] and PCI/IMS on the same device due to the fact that IMS
is not longer providing a uniform storage and configuration model.
The solution to this is to implement the missing step and switch from
global PCI/MSI domains to per device PCI/MSI domains. The resulting
hierarchy then looks like this:
|--- [PCI/MSI] device 1
[Vector]---[Remapping]---|...
|--- [PCI/MSI] device N
which in turn allows to provide support for multiple domains per device:
|--- [PCI/MSI] device 1
|--- [PCI/IMS] device 1
[Vector]---[Remapping]---|...
|--- [PCI/MSI] device N
|--- [PCI/IMS] device N
This work converts the MSI and PCI/MSI core and the x86 interrupt
domains to the new model, provides new interfaces for post-enable
allocation/free of MSI-X interrupts and the base framework for PCI/IMS.
PCI/IMS has been verified with the work in progress IDXD driver.
There is work in progress to convert ARM over which will replace the
platform MSI train-wreck. The cleanup of VFIO, NTB and other creative
"solutions" are in the works as well.
