Xen-unstable + linux 4.1-mergewindow: problems with PV guest pci passthrough: pcifront pci-0: pciback not responding!!!

[Sander Eikelenboom]

Hi David / Konrad,

Here the other problem i found, which is introduced somewhere in the 
4.1 mergewindow:

on 4.1.0-rc1 (with the one revert to get things booting) i get this in
the PV Guest console:

Where on 4.0.0 it get:

But i thought the patches that would change pci bus scanning were destined for 
4.2 though ...

Hi David / Konrad,

I have bisected this one .. it leads to:

commit 97badf873ab60e841243b66133ff9eff2a46ef29
Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
Date:   Fri Apr 3 23:23:37 2015 +0200

device property: Make it possible to use secondary firmware nodes

Since i didn't see it directly related to pci-front, i double checked by 
reverting this commit(and 9b73262ccbf2fb0060303f047863214269e64f9a since it 
build depends on the other) on 4.1-rc2.

Reverting in the guest kernel indeed makes pci-front work correct again.

Um?  That really doesn't make sense to me. Konrad, any ideas?

So since device_add_property_set() is not currently used, the commit it's
been bisected to should not have any functional effects on anything, but
nevertheless please apply the appended debug patch and see if you get any
extra output from it.

That said, the commit might make a difference for Xen if there's an already
existing initialization ordering issue, because it slows down the ACPI/PCI
initialization a bit (due to the new checks in set_primary_fwnode()) and
something already racy with respect to it may be able to win the race now.

So I'm wondering, for example, if adding something like msleep(100); at the
beginning of pcifront_init() (right after the initial checks) will make any
difference.

Thanks for looking into it, it will give this patch and your suggestion a shot 
and see if i can get some more details.

Hi Rafael,

The WARN's don't trigger, so it's a red herring i suppose :-(
I also tried the msleep(100), but that didn't change anything as well. 

Konrad,

I enabled (and extended) the debugging printk's in xen-pcifront.
Why is the code actually "scanning" all those BDF's ?
Hasn't pciback written the virtual slot into xenstore already ?

Now pcifront timed out (and pciback reports a state change to 4 which is 
"connected" .. which also seems a wrong fallthrough somewhere.

After reverting the two commits again .. i get a working pci device and this 
output from pci-front:

[    0.803920] pcifront pci-0: ?!?!? pciback responded !!! irq:24 irq_flags:ffff88001ab40004 ns: 1431470444339108000  ns_timeout: 143147044633907400

etc.

On a side note .. why is it actually "scanning" the bus and all possible BDF's ?
Shouldn't pcifront already be able to know the virtual slot pciback has written 
to xenstore were the device(s) will be ?



The only direct change involving xen-pciback and pcifront seems to be:

commit ccc9d90a9a8b5c4ad7e9708ec41f75ff9e98d61d
Author: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com>
Date:   Fri Apr 3 14:44:59 2015 +0800

    xenbus_client: Extend interface to support multi-page ring

But my bisect didn't point that out :S

Any pointers were to add more debug code ?

Hi Rafael,

The WARN's don't trigger, so it's a red herring i suppose :-(
I also tried the msleep(100), but that didn't change anything as well. 

Konrad,

I enabled (and extended) the debugging printk's in xen-pcifront.
Why is the code actually "scanning" all those BDF's ?
Hasn't pciback written the virtual slot into xenstore already ?

Now pcifront timed out (and pciback reports a state change to 4 which is 
"connected" .. which also seems a wrong fallthrough somewhere.

After reverting the two commits again .. i get a working pci device and this

etc.

On a side note .. why is it actually "scanning" the bus and all possible BDF's ?
Shouldn't pcifront already be able to know the virtual slot pciback has written 
to xenstore were the device(s) will be ?



The only direct change involving xen-pciback and pcifront seems to be:

commit ccc9d90a9a8b5c4ad7e9708ec41f75ff9e98d61d
Author: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com>
Date:   Fri Apr 3 14:44:59 2015 +0800

    xenbus_client: Extend interface to support multi-page ring

But my bisect didn't point that out :S

Any pointers were to add more debug code ?

It seems so.

The commit also changes the size of struct acpi_device, but that shouldn't
matter.

> I also tried the msleep(100), but that didn't change anything as well. 

I see.

Well, I'm not really familiar with the Xen-related code, so it is hard to
me to give you any useful advice here.

It seems so.

The commit also changes the size of struct acpi_device, but that shouldn't
matter.

> I also tried the msleep(100), but that didn't change anything as well. 

I see.

Well, I'm not really familiar with the Xen-related code, so it is hard to
me to give you any useful advice here.

So somehow in the non-working situation, pdev->evtchn and pdev->gnt_ref are 0 in 
xen-pcifront.c:do_pci_op(), so no wonder it's not getting a response back ...

Question is .. why ?

So somehow in the non-working situation, pdev->evtchn and pdev->gnt_ref are 0 in

Question is .. why ?

Sorry for the resend, i messed up the to's en from's.

Hi Konrad / David,

One big snip on this thread, got some more debug info, hopefully this will 
lead to something:

On a working kernel (with the two seemingly non related patches reverted) i get:

So somehow in the non-working situation, pdev->evtchn and pdev->gnt_ref are 0 in 
xen-pcifront.c:do_pci_op(), so no wonder it's not getting a response back ...

Question is .. why ?

So somehow in the non-working situation, pdev->evtchn and pdev->gnt_ref are 0 in 
xen-pcifront.c:do_pci_op(), so no wonder it's not getting a response back ...

Question is .. why ?

David / Boris,

Any idea, since Konrad seems to be off for 2 weeks and we are at rc4 now.

Hi Rafael,

The WARN's don't trigger, so it's a red herring i suppose :-(
I also tried the msleep(100), but that didn't change anything as well. 

Konrad,

I enabled (and extended) the debugging printk's in xen-pcifront.
Why is the code actually "scanning" all those BDF's ?
Hasn't pciback written the virtual slot into xenstore already ?

Now pcifront timed out (and pciback reports a state change to 4 which is 
"connected" .. which also seems a wrong fallthrough somewhere.

After reverting the two commits again .. i get a working pci device and this 
output from pci-front:

etc.

On a side note .. why is it actually "scanning" the bus and all possible BDF's ?
Shouldn't pcifront already be able to know the virtual slot pciback has written 
to xenstore were the device(s) will be ?



The only direct change involving xen-pciback and pcifront seems to be:

commit ccc9d90a9a8b5c4ad7e9708ec41f75ff9e98d61d
Author: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com>
Date:   Fri Apr 3 14:44:59 2015 +0800

    xenbus_client: Extend interface to support multi-page ring

But my bisect didn't point that out :S

Any pointers were to add more debug code ?

So since device_add_property_set() is not currently used, the commit it's
been bisected to should not have any functional effects on anything, but
nevertheless please apply the appended debug patch and see if you get any
extra output from it.

That said, the commit might make a difference for Xen if there's an already
existing initialization ordering issue, because it slows down the ACPI/PCI
initialization a bit (due to the new checks in set_primary_fwnode()) and
something already racy with respect to it may be able to win the race now.

So I'm wondering, for example, if adding something like msleep(100); at the
beginning of pcifront_init() (right after the initial checks) will make any
difference.

Not that I'm aware of.

I'll look at that tomorrow when I'm a bit less tired.

That is quite odd. And sadly I am due for vacation at the end of this week
so own't be able to look at this (and prepare an debug patch for the MSI
addendum debug patch either).


Rafael,

Were there any other bug reports about this particular commit?

Thank you!
