Merge tag 'cxl-fixes-6.3-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cxl/cxl
Pull compute express link (cxl) fixes from Dan Williams:
"Several fixes for driver startup regressions that landed during the
merge window as well as some older bugs.
The regressions were due to a lack of testing with what the CXL
specification calls Restricted CXL Host (RCH) topologies compared to
the testing with Virtual Host (VH) CXL topologies. A VH topology is
typical PCIe while RCH topologies map CXL endpoints as Root Complex
Integrated endpoints. The impact is some driver crashes on startup.
This merge window also added compatibility for range registers (the
mechanism that CXL 1.1 defined for mapping memory) to treat them like
HDM decoders (the mechanism that CXL 2.0 defined for mapping
Host-managed Device Memory). That work collided with the new region
enumeration code that was tested with CXL 2.0 setups, and fails with
crashes at startup.
Lastly, the DOE (Data Object Exchange) implementation for retrieving
an ACPI-like data table from CXL devices is being reworked for v6.4.
Several fixes fell out of that work that are suitable for v6.3.
All of this has been in linux-next for a while, and all reported
issues [1] have been addressed.
Summary:
- Fix several issues with region enumeration in RCH topologies that
can trigger crashes on driver startup or shutdown.
- Fix CXL DVSEC range register compatibility versus region
enumeration that leads to startup crashes
- Fix CDAT endiannes handling
- Fix multiple buffer handling boundary conditions
- Fix Data Object Exchange (DOE) workqueue usage vs
CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS warn splats"
