3 tristate "CXL (Compute Express Link) Devices Support"
10 CXL is a bus that is electrically compatible with PCI Express, but
11 layers three protocols on that signalling (CXL.io, CXL.cache, and
12 CXL.mem). The CXL.cache protocol allows devices to hold cachelines
13 locally, the CXL.mem protocol allows devices to be fully coherent
14 memory targets, the CXL.io protocol is equivalent to PCI Express.
15 Say 'y' to enable support for the configuration and management of
16 devices supporting these protocols.
21 tristate "PCI manageability"
24 The CXL specification defines a "CXL memory device" sub-class in the
25 PCI "memory controller" base class of devices. Device's identified by
26 this class code provide support for volatile and / or persistent
27 memory to be mapped into the system address map (Host-managed Device
30 Say 'y/m' to enable a driver that will attach to CXL memory expander
31 devices enumerated by the memory device class code for configuration
32 and management primarily via the mailbox interface. See Chapter 2.3
33 Type 3 CXL Device in the CXL 2.0 specification for more details.
37 config CXL_MEM_RAW_COMMANDS
38 bool "RAW Command Interface for Memory Devices"
41 Enable CXL RAW command interface.
43 The CXL driver ioctl interface may assign a kernel ioctl command
44 number for each specification defined opcode. At any given point in
45 time the number of opcodes that the specification defines and a device
46 may implement may exceed the kernel's set of associated ioctl function
47 numbers. The mismatch is either by omission, specification is too new,
48 or by design. When prototyping new hardware, or developing / debugging
49 the driver it is useful to be able to submit any possible command to
50 the hardware, even commands that may crash the kernel due to their
51 potential impact to memory currently in use by the kernel.
53 If developing CXL hardware or the driver say Y, otherwise say N.
56 tristate "CXL ACPI: Platform Support"
63 Enable support for host managed device memory (HDM) resources
64 published by a platform's ACPI CXL memory layout description. See
65 Chapter 9.14.1 CXL Early Discovery Table (CEDT) in the CXL 2.0
66 specification, and CXL Fixed Memory Window Structures (CEDT.CFMWS)
67 (https://www.computeexpresslink.org/spec-landing). The CXL core
68 consumes these resource to publish the root of a cxl_port decode
69 hierarchy to map regions that represent System RAM, or Persistent
70 Memory regions to be managed by LIBNVDIMM.
75 tristate "CXL PMEM: Persistent Memory Support"
79 In addition to typical memory resources a platform may also advertise
80 support for persistent memory attached via CXL. This support is
81 managed via a bridge driver from CXL to the LIBNVDIMM system
82 subsystem. Say 'y/m' to enable support for enumerating and
83 provisioning the persistent memory capacity of CXL memory expanders.
88 tristate "CXL: Memory Expansion"
92 The CXL.mem protocol allows a device to act as a provider of "System
93 RAM" and/or "Persistent Memory" that is fully coherent as if the
94 memory were attached to the typical CPU memory controller. This is
95 known as HDM "Host-managed Device Memory".
97 Say 'y/m' to enable a driver that will attach to CXL.mem devices for
98 memory expansion and control of HDM. See Chapter 9.13 in the CXL 2.0
99 specification for a detailed description of HDM.
109 depends on SUSPEND && CXL_MEM
112 bool "CXL: Region Support"
114 # For MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS
117 select GET_FREE_REGION
119 Enable the CXL core to enumerate and provision CXL regions. A CXL
120 region is defined by one or more CXL expanders that decode a given
121 system-physical address range. For CXL regions established by
122 platform-firmware this option enables memory error handling to
123 identify the devices participating in a given interleaved memory
124 range. Otherwise, platform-firmware managed CXL is enabled by being
125 placed in the system address map and does not need a driver.
129 config CXL_REGION_INVALIDATION_TEST
130 bool "CXL: Region Cache Management Bypass (TEST)"
131 depends on CXL_REGION
133 CXL Region management and security operations potentially invalidate
134 the content of CPU caches without notifying those caches to
135 invalidate the affected cachelines. The CXL Region driver attempts
136 to invalidate caches when those events occur. If that invalidation
137 fails the region will fail to enable. Reasons for cache
138 invalidation failure are due to the CPU not providing a cache
139 invalidation mechanism. For example usage of wbinvd is restricted to
140 bare metal x86. However, for testing purposes toggling this option
141 can disable that data integrity safety and proceed with enabling
142 regions when there might be conflicting contents in the CPU cache.
