From 2bcd1c0cfcf53a384159c272c972645e7e822140 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Timur Tabi Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2011 12:41:35 -0500 Subject: powerpc/fsl_msi: add support for "msi-address-64" property Add support for the msi-address-64 property of a PCI node. This property specifies the PCI address of MSIIR (message signaled interrupt index register). In commit 3da34aae ("powerpc/fsl: Support unique MSI addresses per PCIe Root Complex"), the msi_addr_hi/msi_addr_lo fields of struct fsl_msi were redefined from an actual address to just an offset, but the fields were not renamed accordingly. These fields are replace with a single field, msiir_offset, to reflect the new meaning.

The +Freescale MSI driver calculates the address of MSIIR (in the MSI register +block) and sets that address as the MSI message address. + +In a virtualized environment, the hypervisor may need to create an IOMMU +mapping for MSIIR. The Freescale ePAPR hypervisor has this requirement +because of hardware limitations of the Peripheral Access Management Unit +(PAMU), which is currently the only IOMMU that the hypervisor supports. +The ATMU is programmed with the guest physical address, and the PAMU +intercepts transactions and reroutes them to the true physical address. + +In the PAMU, each PCI controller is given only one primary window. The +PAMU restricts DMA operations so that they can only occur within a window. +Because PCI devices must be able to DMA to memory, the primary window must +be used to cover all of the guest's memory space. + +PAMU primary windows can be divided into 256 subwindows, and each +subwindow can have its own address mapping ("guest physical" to "true +physical"). However, each subwindow has to have the same alignment, which +means they cannot be located at just any address. Because of these +restrictions, it is usually impossible to create a 4KB subwindow that +covers MSIIR where it's normally located. + +Therefore, the hypervisor has to create a subwindow inside the same +primary window used for memory, but mapped to the MSIR block (where MSIIR +lives). The first subwindow after the end of guest memory is used for +this. The address specified in the msi-address-64 property is the PCI +address of MSIIR. The hypervisor configures the PAMU to map that address to +the true physical address of MSIIR. -- cgit v1.2.3-70-g09d2
