This patch defines a new opcode in the DEBUG IOCTL that is used by the
user to notify the driver when the user wants to start or stop using the
debug and profile infrastructure of the device. i.e. set the device to
debug mode or to non-debug mode.
There are a couple of restrictions that this new opcode introduces:
1. The user can't configure the debug/profiling infrastructure before he
sets the device to debug mode, by using this new opcode.
2. The user can't set the device to debug mode unless he is the only user
that is currently using (has an open FD) the device.
3. Other users can't use the device (open a new FD) in case an existing
user has set the device into debug mode.
These restrictions are needed because the debug and profiling
infrastructure is a shared component in the ASIC and therefore, can't be
used while multiple users are working on the device.
Because the driver currently does NOT support multiple users, the
implementation of the restrictions is not required at this point. However,
the interface definition is needed in order to avoid changing the user API
later on.

This patch adds missing fields of start address 0 and 1 in the bmon
parameter structure that is received from the user in the debug IOCTL.
Without these fields, the functionality of the bmon trace is broken,
because there is no configuration of the base address of the filter of the

Habanalabs ASICs use the ARM coresight infrastructure to support debug,
tracing and profiling of neural networks topologies.
Because the coresight is configured using register writes and reads, and
some of the registers hold sensitive information (e.g. the address in
the device's DRAM where the trace data is written to), the user must go
through the kernel driver to configure this mechanism.
This patch implements the common code of the IOCTL and calls the
ASIC-specific function for the actual H/W configuration.
The IOCTL supports configuration of seven coresight components:
ETR, ETF, STM, FUNNEL, BMON, SPMU and TIMESTAMP
The user specifies which component he wishes to configure and provides a
pointer to a structure (located in its process space) that contains the
relevant configuration.
The common code copies the relevant data from the user-space to kernel
space and then calls the ASIC-specific function to do the H/W
configuration.
After the configuration is done, which is usually composed
of several IOCTL calls depending on what the user wanted to trace, the
user can start executing the topology. The trace data will be written to
the user's area in the device's DRAM.
After the tracing operation is complete, and user will call the IOCTL
again to disable the tracing operation. The user also need to read
values from registers for some of the components (e.g. the size of the
trace data in the device's DRAM). In that case, the user will provide a
pointer to an "output" structure in user-space, which the IOCTL code will
fill according the to selected component.

This patch increase the size field in the uapi structure of the Memory
IOCTL from 32-bit to 64-bit. This is to allow the user to allocate and/or
map memory in chunks that are larger then 4GB.
Goya's device memory (DRAM) can be up to 16GB, and for certain
topologies, the user may want an allocation that is larger than 4GB.
This change doesn't break current user-space because there was a "pad"
field in the uapi structure right after the size field. Changing the size
field to be 64-bit and removing the pad field maintains compatibility with
current user-space.

This patch adds the Virtual Memory and MMU modules.
Goya has an internal MMU which provides process isolation on the internal
DDR. The internal MMU also performs translations for transactions that go
from Goya to the Host.
The driver is responsible for allocating and freeing memory on the DDR
upon user request. It also provides an interface to map and unmap DDR and
Host memory to the device address space.
The MMU in Goya supports 3-level and 4-level page tables. With 3-level, the
size of each page is 2MB, while with 4-level the size of each page is 4KB.
In the DDR, the physical pages are always 2MB.

This patch adds the main flow for the user to submit work to the device.
Each work is described by a command submission object (CS). The CS contains
3 arrays of command buffers: One for execution, and two for context-switch
(store and restore).
For each CB, the user specifies on which queue to put that CB. In case of
an internal queue, the entry doesn't contain a pointer to the CB but the
address in the on-chip memory that the CB resides at.
The driver parses some of the CBs to enforce security restrictions.
The user receives a sequence number that represents the CS object. The user
can then query the driver regarding the status of the CS, using that
sequence number.
In case the CS doesn't finish before the timeout expires, the driver will
perform a soft-reset of the device.

This patch adds the H/W queues module and the code to initialize Goya's
various compute and DMA engines and their queues.
Goya has 5 DMA channels, 8 TPC engines and a single MME engine. For each
channel/engine, there is a H/W queue logic which is used to pass commands
from the user to the H/W. That logic is called QMAN.
There are two types of QMANs: external and internal. The DMA QMANs are
considered external while the TPC and MME QMANs are considered internal.
For each external queue there is a completion queue, which is located on
the Host memory.
The differences between external and internal QMANs are:
1. The location of the queue's memory. External QMANs are located on the
Host memory while internal QMANs are located on the on-chip memory.
2. The external QMAN write an entry to a completion queue and sends an
MSI-X interrupt upon completion of a command buffer that was given to
it. The internal QMAN doesn't do that.

This patch adds the command buffer (CB) module, which allows the user to
create and destroy CBs and to map them to the user's process
address-space.
A command buffer is a memory blocks that reside in DMA-able address-space
and is physically contiguous so it can be accessed by the device without
MMU translation. The command buffer memory is allocated using the
coherent DMA API.
When creating a new CB, the IOCTL returns a handle of it, and the
user-space process needs to use that handle to mmap the buffer to get a VA
in the user's address-space.
Before destroying (freeing) a CB, the user must unmap the CB's VA using the
CB handle.
Each CB has a reference counter, which tracks its usage in command
submissions and also its mmaps (only a single mmap is allowed).
The driver maintains a pool of pre-allocated CBs in order to reduce
latency during command submissions. In case the pool is empty, the driver
will go to the slow-path of allocating a new CB, i.e. calling
dma_alloc_coherent.

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.
Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.
GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.
Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)
SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

It changes the type u8 to __u8 in the uapi header cxl.h, because the
former is a kernel internal type, and may not be defined in userland
build environments, in particular when cross-compiling libcxl on x86_64
linux machines (RHEL6.7 and Ubuntu 16.04).
This patch also changes the size of the field data_size, and makes it
constant, to support 32-bit userland applications running on big-endian
ppc64 kernels transparently.
mpe: This is an ABI change, however the ABI was only added during the

This adds an afu_driver_ops structure with fetch_event() and
event_delivered() callbacks. An AFU driver such as cxlflash can fill
this out and associate it with a context to enable passing custom AFU
specific events to userspace.
This also adds a new kernel API function cxl_context_pending_events(),
that the AFU driver can use to notify the cxl driver that new specific
events are ready to be delivered, and wake up anyone waiting on the
context wait queue.
The current count of AFU driver specific events is stored in the field
afu_driver_events of the context structure.
The cxl driver checks the afu_driver_events count during poll, select,
read, etc. calls to check if an AFU driver specific event is pending,
and calls fetch_event() to obtain and deliver that event. This way, the
cxl driver takes care of all the usual locking semantics around these
calls and handles all the generic cxl events, so that the AFU driver
only needs to worry about it's own events.
fetch_event() return a struct cxl_event_afu_driver_reserved, allocated
by the AFU driver, and filled in with the specific event information and
size. Total event size (header + data) should not be greater than
CXL_READ_MIN_SIZE (4K).
Th cxl driver prepends an appropriate cxl event header, copies the event
to userspace, and finally calls event_delivered() to return the status of
the operation to the AFU driver. The event is identified by the context
and cxl_event_afu_driver_reserved pointers.
Since AFU drivers provide their own means for userspace to obtain the
AFU file descriptor (i.e. cxlflash uses an ioctl on their scsi file
descriptor to obtain the AFU file descriptor) and the generic cxl driver
will never use this event, the ABI of the event is up to each individual
AFU driver.

userspace programs using cxl currently have to use two strategies for
dealing with MMIO errors simultaneously. They have to check every read
for a return of all Fs in case the adapter has gone away and the kernel
has not yet noticed, and they have to deal with SIGBUS in case the
kernel has already noticed, invalidated the mapping and marked the
context as failed.
In order to simplify things, this patch adds an alternative approach
where the kernel will return a page filled with Fs instead of delivering
a SIGBUS. This allows userspace to only need to deal with one of these
two error paths, and is intended for use in libraries that use cxl
transparently and may not be able to safely install a signal handler.
This approach will only work if certain constraints are met. Namely, if
the application is both reading and writing to an address in the problem
state area it cannot assume that a non-FF read is OK, as it may just be
reading out a value it has previously written. Further - since only one
page is used per context a write to a given offset would be visible when
reading the same offset from a different page in the mapping (this only
applies within a single context, not between contexts).
An application could deal with this by e.g. making sure it also reads
from a read-only offset after any reads to a read/write offset.
Due to these constraints, this functionality must be explicitly
requested by userspace when starting the context by passing in the
CXL_START_WORK_ERR_FF flag.

Given a file descriptor on an afu device, libcxl currently uses the
major/minor number obtained from fstat on the fd to construct path to
the afu's sysfs directory. However it is possible that rather than using
one of the device in /dev/cxl, a kernel driver creates its own device
which export generic cxl interface to the userspace. This causes
problems with libcxl as it tries to use a wrong major/minor number to
construct the sysfs path and fail.
So this patch introduces a new ioctl called CXL_IOCTL_GET_AFU_ID on the
afu file descriptor to fetch the cxl_afu_id struct that holds the
card/offset-id and mode information. These info is then used by libcxl to
construct the correct path to the afu sysfs directory.
Testing:
- Build against pseries be/le configs
- Testing with corresponding libcxl changes to verify that it constructs
right sysfs path to the afu.
