Subject: [PATCH v2 0/9] cxl/port: Unify RAS setup across port types
Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2026 16:03:54 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260131000403.2135324-1-dan.j.williams@intel.com> (raw)
Changes since v1 [1]:
- Cleanup the diff by keeping the order of dport_exists() relative to
the dev->driver check in cxl_port_add_dport() (Jonathan)
- Drop some repetitive de-referencing with a local @port variable in
dport_to_host() (Jonathan)
- s/group/dr_group/ throughout to clarify "devres group" (Jonathan)
- Reuse del_dport() for cxl_dport_release_dr_group() (Jonathan)
- Drop the thin wrappers for devres_{open,close}_group() for the port
group.
- Add a comment and a cleanup TODO for the 'add_dport()' operation in
'struct cxl_driver'. (Jonathan)
- Change patch 7 subject to just: "cxl/port: Map Port RAS registers"
since it is only introducing a helper that is later used in the
endpoint case. (Jonathan)

The CXL Port Protocol error handling series grew to be over 30 patches
which is too much to handle at once given the various topics involved.
One of the sub-threads of the v14 review was confusion about the new
devres groups to manage port setup unwind failures [2].
[2]: http://lore.kernel.org/20260115144605.00000666@huawei.com
Given that review indicated a need to break up and better explain the
conversion, do that in a separate patch set. Build on top of the first
18 patches of that series [3] that are ready to merge.

The wider goals of the port protocol handling series are:
1/ Be minimally invasive to the ongoing maintenance burden of PCIe error
handling. Just do the minimal enlightenment to forward "internal"
errors for device with active CXL links to the CXL core.
2/ Build a framework for any driver that registers a 'struct cxl_memdev'
(or in the future a 'struct cxl_cachedev') gets protocol error
handling support.
This "Unify RAS setup across port types" set supports goal 2/. It
enables a model where all CXL error handling is relative to the common
'struct cxl_port' and 'struct cxl_dport' objects and is agnostic to
whether those objects are in support of the memory expansion class
device (driven by cxl_pci) or any other CXL endpoint in the system that
supports CXL.cachemem operation.
In support of that unification, the setup of RAS registers needs to be
centralized. That in turn requires new handling for early exit setup
failures and additional teardown support for resources optionally
acquired at port / dport creation time.
The devres group mechanism is deployed to cleanup some open coded
devm_release_action() calls. The devres group facility also comes in
handy for unwinding conditional setup steps in the port creation
process. Recall that ports defer probing their CXL resources until after
they are known to have a downstream CXL connection. So, early exit during
setup of a new dport may have more or less work to do depending on
whether the first or subsequent dport is being added.
Given probing port resources is a 'probe' action it fits more naturally
as a driver operation. If cxl_port_add_dport() then moves to cxl_port
driver operation alongside ->probe(), it enables a cxl_test cleanup. The
cxl_test approach has a hard time mocking interfaces that are internal
to the cxl_core.
The rest of the patches in this set finish off the conversion of 'struct
cxl_port' and 'struct cxl_dport' to be the only CXL objects that
interact with the CXL RAS.
