Subject: [PATCH v6 3/6] hw/riscv/virt: Advertise the CXL host bridge to firmware via extra-pci-roots
Date: Mon,  7 Sep 2026 17:37:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260907093735.2753-4-cp0613@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260907093735.2753-1-cp0613@linux.alibaba.com>

The pxb-cxl expander bridge presents as a class 0x0600 host bridge with
a type-0 header, so EDK2's PciBusDxe never recurses into it and never
assigns the CXL root port a memory window or bus numbers.  As a result
build_crs() produces an empty _CRS for the ACPI0016 host bridge and the
CXL devices behind it are not enumerated by the OS.

Advertise the pxb-cxl expander root buses to firmware via the
etc/extra-pci-roots fw_cfg file, the same way arm/virt and x86 do, by
calling pci_bus_add_fw_cfg_extra_pci_roots() from virt_machine_done().
EDK2's PciBusDxe then enumerates behind the CXL host bridge and assigns
the root-port window and bus numbers.  The ACPI tables are rebuilt when
the guest reads them (after that firmware enumeration), so build_crs()
then emits a correct _CRS for the ACPI0016 host bridge.

The call is made unconditionally, in line with arm/virt, pc and hppa,
so plain pxb-pcie expander bridges, which likewise depend on
etc/extra-pci-roots, are advertised as well; the generator simply
returns nothing when there is no expander root bus.

This approach also scales to multiple pxb-cxl host bridges (each gets
its own window from the shared aperture) and lets firmware size the
window to what is actually behind the bridge, rather than reserving a
fixed carve-out.

Verified by booting an RVA22 guest: the CXL root port and Type3 device
enumerate, and 'cxl enable-memdev' / 'cxl create-region' /
'daxctl online-memory' bring the CXL memory online as system RAM.
