Therefore 1-1 mapping of cxl-i2c device per PCIe device is sufficient, and we use function number in BDF as the LD-ID. Does it makes sense ? LDs are PCIe endpoint functions (always function 0) as seen from the Virtual Heirarchies (as they end up under a particular vPBB - which look like a downstream port of a switch to the host) but they aren't from a more general topology point of view of actual fabric topology and when we are tunneling we address them via physical port, not virtual port I think (not read that bit of the spec for a while). See figure 7-23 in CXL 3.0 Outer tunneling command targets a port number (unwrapped at the switch), inner one targets the LD - unwrapped at the MLD and sent to appropriate LD including FM owned LD (if I understand this stack directly). Also no relationship between BDF and LD-ID so don't do that as the maximum ID is only 16 which would rather limit your PCI toplogies if that's the BDF as well. For now just do what you originally said and add an ID (starting from 0). We can probably do that automatically once more infrastructure is in place.
