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