[PATCH v4 1/9] cxl/mem: Introduce a driver for CXL-2.0-Type-3 endpoints

Ben Widawsky

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

The CXL.mem protocol allows a device to act as a provider of "System
RAM" and/or "Persistent Memory" that is fully coherent as if the memory
was attached to the typical CPU memory controller.

With the CXL-2.0 specification a PCI endpoint can implement a "Type-3"
device interface and give the operating system control over "Host
Managed Device Memory". See section 2.3 Type 3 CXL Device.

The memory range exported by the device may optionally be described by
the platform firmware memory map, or by infrastructure like LIBNVDIMM to
provision persistent memory capacity from one, or more, CXL.mem devices.

A pre-requisite for Linux-managed memory-capacity provisioning is this
cxl_mem driver that can speak the mailbox protocol defined in section
8.2.8.4 Mailbox Registers.

For now just land the initial driver boiler-plate and Documentation/
infrastructure.

+Compute Express Link Memory Devices
+===================================
+
+A Compute Express Link Memory Device is a CXL component that implements the
+CXL.mem protocol. It contains some amount of volatile memory, persistent memory,
+or both. It is enumerated as a PCI device for configuration and passing
+messages over an MMIO mailbox. Its contribution to the System Physical
+Address space is handled via HDM (Host Managed Device Memory) decoders
+that optionally define a device's contribution to an interleaved address
+range across multiple devices underneath a host-bridge or interleaved
+across host-bridges.
+
+Driver Infrastructure
+=====================
+
+This section covers the driver infrastructure for a CXL memory device.

+ help
+ CXL is a bus that is electrically compatible with PCI Express, but
+ layers three protocols on that signalling (CXL.io, CXL.cache, and
+ CXL.mem). The CXL.cache protocol allows devices to hold cachelines
+ locally, the CXL.mem protocol allows devices to be fully coherent
+ memory targets, the CXL.io protocol is equivalent to PCI Express.
+ Say 'y' to enable support for the configuration and management of
+ devices supporting these protocols.

+ The CXL.mem protocol allows a device to act as a provider of
+ "System RAM" and/or "Persistent Memory" that is fully coherent
+ as if the memory was attached to the typical CPU memory
+ controller.
+
+ Say 'y/m' to enable a driver (named "cxl_mem.ko" when built as
+ a module) that will attach to CXL.mem devices for
+ configuration, provisioning, and health monitoring. This
+ driver is required for dynamic provisioning of CXL.mem
+ attached memory which is a prerequisite for persistent memory
+ support. Typically volatile memory is mapped by platform
+ firmware and included in the platform memory map, but in some
+ cases the OS is responsible for mapping that memory. See
+ Chapter 2.3 Type 3 CXL Device in the CXL 2.0 specification.
