Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ACPI/PCI/CXL: Enforce _DEP ordering between ACPI0016 and ACPI0017
Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 10:51:16 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260526025118.38935-1-cp0613@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
On platforms whose ACPI namespace exposes a CXL host bridge (ACPI0016)
with an ACPI0017 CXL root device declaring _DEP on the host bridge,
cxl_acpi can probe before acpi_pci_root has attached the PCI root.
acpi_pci_find_root() then returns NULL, decoder targets read as 0,
and no port/endpoint device shows up under /sys/bus/cxl/devices/.
The root cause is twofold:
1. acpi_pci_root_add() never calls acpi_dev_clear_dependencies(),
so _DEP suppliers downstream of a PCI root are never released.
2. ACPI0016 is not on acpi_honor_dep_ids[], so even when ACPI0017
declares _DEP on it, acpi_dev_ready_for_enumeration() bypasses
the dep_unmet check and lets cxl_acpi probe early.
On x86 the bug is usually masked by link order (acpi_pci_root is
built in and probed before cxl_acpi). On architectures like RISC-V
that ordering is not guaranteed, so the standard ACPI _DEP mechanism
must actually work.
This series fixes both sides and the two patches must be applied
together; applying only patch 2 would prevent cxl_acpi from ever
probing on ACPI0016 systems, because the supplier would never clear
the dependency.
Patch 1 makes acpi_pci_root_add() clear _DEP on the supplier once
the PCI root bus has been added.
Patch 2 adds ACPI0016 to acpi_honor_dep_ids[] so the dependency
declared by ACPI0017 is enforced.
The approach in this series follows the discussion of an earlier
posting:
