Subject: [PATCH v3 06/17] PCI/P2PDMA: Gate the host bridge whitelist warning on verbose
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 12:30:48 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811-fix-p2p-acs-v3-6-efc488ee7c03@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260811-fix-p2p-acs-v3-0-efc488ee7c03@nvidia.com>

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

calc_map_type_and_dist() prints every other diagnostic under its verbose
argument, but reaches the "Host bridge not in P2PDMA whitelist" warning
through host_bridge_whitelist(), which it hands acs_redirects instead.
A caller that asked for a silent answer still gets the warning whenever
any port on the path has an ACS redirect bit set, the CPU is not
whitelisted by cpu_supports_p2pdma(), and the host bridge is not in
pci_p2pdma_whitelist[].

pci_p2pmem_find_many() is such a caller. It sweeps every device with
published p2pmem and asks for the distance to each client with
verbose=false, and pci_p2pdma_distance_many() recomputes rather than
consulting the map_types cache, so the warning repeats on every sweep.

The argument was never meant to say "ACS redirects were found". When
commit cf201bfe8cdc ("PCI/P2PDMA: Warn if host bridge not in whitelist")
added it, acs_redirects was a bool pointer that the quiet entry point
passed as NULL:

	if (verbose)
		map = calc_map_type_and_dist_warn(provider, pci_client,
						  &distance);
	else
		map = calc_map_type_and_dist(provider, pci_client,
					     &distance, NULL, NULL);

so the argument was true on exactly the path that commit describes.
Folding the two entry points into one verbose flag turned the pointer
into a value and left the call site alone, silently narrowing the
warning to paths that carry an ACS redirect.

Pass verbose. This also restores the warning for a verbose caller that
takes the host bridge route with no ACS redirect on the path, which
until now was told it could not use peer-to-peer DMA without being told
which vendor and device would have to be added to the whitelist.
