[PATCH v7 06/17] ARM64 / ACPI: Make PCI optional for ACPI on ARM64

to
Since PCI is not required in ACPI spec and ARM can run without
it, introduce some stub functions to make PCI optional for ACPI,
and make ACPI core run without CONFIG_PCI on ARM64.

When PCI is enabled on ARM64, ACPI core will need some PCI functions
to make it functional, so introduce some empty functions here and
implement it later.

Since ACPI on X86 and IA64 depends on PCI and this patch only makes
PCI optional for ARM64, it will not break anything on X86 and IA64.

Introduce a new function map_gicc_mpidr() to allow MPIDRs to be obtained
from the GICC Structure introduced by ACPI 5.1.

MPIDR is the CPU hardware ID as local APIC ID on x86 platform, so we use
MPIDR not the GIC CPU interface ID to identify CPUs.

When MADT is parsed, print GIC information to make the boot
log look pretty:

ACPI: GICC (acpi_id[0x0000] address[00000000e112f000] MPIDR[0x0] enabled)
ACPI: GICC (acpi_id[0x0001] address[00000000e112f000] MPIDR[0x1] enabled)
...
ACPI: GICC (acpi_id[0x0201] address[00000000e112f000] MPIDR[0x201] enabled)

These information will be very helpful to bring up early systems to
see if acpi_id and MPIDR are matched or not as spec defined.

+ACPI on ARMv8 Servers
+---------------------
+ACPI can be used for ARMv8 general purpose servers designed to follow
+the ARM SBSA (Server Base System Architecture) and SBBR (Server Base
+Boot Requirements) specifications, currently available to those with
+an ARM login at http://silver.arm.com.
+
+The ARMv8 kernel implements the reduced hardware model of ACPI version
+5.1 and later. Links to the specification and all external documents
+it refers to are managed by the UEFI Forum. The specification is
+available at http://www.uefi.org/specifications and external documents
+can be found via http://www.uefi.org/acpi.
+
+If an ARMv8 system does not meet the requirements of the SBSA, or cannot
+be described using the mechanisms defined in the required ACPI specifications,
+then it is likely that Device Tree (DT) is more suitable than ACPI for the
+hardware.
+
+
+Relationship with Device Tree
+-----------------------------
+ACPI support in drivers and subsystems for ARMv8 should never be mutually
+exclusive with DT support at compile time.
+
+At boot time the kernel will only use one description method depending on
+parameters passed from the bootloader (including kernel bootargs).
+
+Regardless of whether DT or ACPI is used, the kernel must always be capable
+of booting with either scheme (in kernels with both schemes enabled at compile
+time).
+
+
+Booting using ACPI tables
+-------------------------
+The only defined method for passing ACPI tables to the kernel on ARMv8
+is via the UEFI system configuration table.
+
+Processing of ACPI tables may be disabled by passing acpi=off on the kernel
+command line; this is the default behavior if both ACPI and DT tables are
+present. If acpi=force is used, the kernel will ONLY use device configuration
+information contained in the ACPI tables if those tables are available.
+
+In order for the kernel to load and use ACPI tables, the UEFI implementation
+MUST set the ACPI_20_TABLE_GUID to point to the RSDP table (the table with
+the ACPI signature "RSD PTR "). If this pointer is incorrect and acpi=force
+is used, the kernel will disable ACPI and try to use DT to boot instead.
+
+If the pointer to the RSDP table is correct, the table will be mapped into
+the kernel by the ACPI core, using the address provided by UEFI.
+
+The ACPI core will then locate and map in all other ACPI tables provided by
+using the addresses in the RSDP table to find the XSDT (eXtended System
+Description Table). The XSDT in turn provides the addresses to all other
+ACPI tables provided by the system firmware; the ACPI core will then traverse
+this table and map in the tables listed.
+
+The ACPI core will ignore any provided RSDT (Root System Description Table).
+RSDTs have been deprecated and are ignored on arm64 since they only allow
+for 32-bit addresses.
+
+Further, the ACPI core will only use the 64-bit address fields in the FADT
+(Fixed ACPI Description Table). Any 32-bit address fields in the FADT will
+be ignored on arm64.
+
+Hardware reduced mode (see Section 4.1 of the ACPI 5.1 specification) will
+be enforced by the ACPI core on arm64. Doing so allows the ACPI core to
+run less complex code since it no longer has to provide support for legacy
+hardware from other architectures.
+
+For the ACPI core to operate properly, and in turn provide the information
+the kernel needs to configure devices, it expects to find the following
+tables (all section numbers refer to the ACPI 5.1 specfication):
+
+ -- RSDP (Root System Description Pointer), section 5.2.5
+
+ -- XSDT (eXtended System Description Table), section 5.2.8
+
+ -- FADT (Fixed ACPI Description Table), section 5.2.9
+
+ -- DSDT (Differentiated System Description Table), section
+ 5.2.11.1
+
+ -- MADT (Multiple APIC Description Table), section 5.2.12
+
+ -- GTDT (Generic Timer Description Table), section 5.2.24
+
+ -- If PCI is supported, the MCFG (Memory mapped ConFiGuration
+ Table), section 5.2.6, specifically Table 5-31.
+
+If the above tables are not all present, the kernel may or may not be
+able to boot properly since it may not be able to configure all of the
+devices available.
+
+
+ACPI Detection
+--------------
+Drivers should determine their probe() type by checking for a null
+value for ACPI_HANDLE, or checking .of_node, or other information in
+the device structure. This is detailed further in the "Driver
+Recommendations" section.
+
+In non-driver code, if the presence of ACPI needs to be detected at
+runtime, then check the value of acpi_disabled. If CONFIG_ACPI is not
+set, acpi_disabled will always be 1.
+
+
+Device Enumeration
+------------------
+Device descriptions in ACPI should use standard recognized ACPI interfaces.
+These may contain less information than is typically provided via a Device
+Tree description for the same device. This is also one of the reasons that
+ACPI can be useful -- the driver takes into account that it may have less
+detailed information about the device and uses sensible defaults instead.
+If done properly in the driver, the hardware can change and improve over
+time without the driver having to change at all.
+
+Clocks provide an excellent example. In DT, clocks need to be specified
+and the drivers need to take them into account. In ACPI, the assumption
+is that UEFI will leave the device in a reasonable default state, including
+any clock settings. If for some reason the driver needs to change a clock
+value, this can be done in an ACPI method; all the driver needs to do is
+invoke the method and not concern itself with what the method needs to do
+to change the clock. Changing the hardware can then take place over time
+by changing what the ACPI method does, and not the driver.
+
+ACPI drivers should only look at one specific ASL object -- the _DSD object
+-- for device driver parameters (known in DT as "bindings", or "Device
+Properties" in ACPI). DT bindings also will be reviewed before used. The UEFI
+Forum provides a mechanism for registering such bindings [URL TBD by ASWG]
+so that they may be used on any operating system supporting ACPI. Device
+properties that have not been registered with the UEFI Forum should not be
+used.
+
+Drivers should look for device properties in the _DSD object ONLY; the _DSD
+object is described in the ACPI specification section 6.2.5, but more
+specifically, use the _DSD Device Properties UUID:
+
+ -- UUID: daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301
+
+ -- http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/_DSD-device-properties-UUID.pdf
+
+The kernel has an interface for looking up device properties in a manner
+independent of whether DT or ACPI is being used and that interface should
+be used; it can eliminate some duplication of code paths in driver probing
+functions and discourage divergence between DT bindings and ACPI device
+properties.
+
+ACPI tables are described with a formal language called ASL, the ACPI
+Source Language (section 19 of the specification). This means that there
+are always multiple ways to describe the same thing -- including device
+properties. For example, device properties could use an ASL construct
+that looks like this: Name(KEY0, "value0"). An ACPI device driver would
+then retrieve the value of the property by evaluating the KEY0 object.
+However, using Name() this way has multiple problems: (1) ACPI limits
+names ("KEY0") to four characters unlike DT; (2) there is no industry
+wide registry that maintains a list of names, minimzing re-use; (3)
+there is also no registry for the definition of property values ("value0"),
+again making re-use difficult; and (4) how does one maintain backward
+compatibility as new hardware comes out? The _DSD method was created
+to solve precisely these sorts of problems; Linux drivers should ALWAYS
+use the _DSD method for device properties and nothing else.
+
+The _DSM object (ACPI Section 9.14.1) could also be used for conveying
+device properties to a driver. Linux drivers should only expect it to
+be used if _DSD cannot represent the data required, and there is no way
+to create a new UUID for the _DSD object. Note that there is even less
+regulation of the use of _DSM than there is of _DSD. Drivers that depend
+on the contents of _DSM objects will be more difficult to maintain over
+time because of this.
+
+The _DSD object is a very flexible mechanism in ACPI, as are the registered
+Device Properties. This flexibility allows _DSD to cover more than just the
+generic server case and care should be taken in device drivers not to expect
+it to replicate highly specific embedded behaviour from DT.
+
+Both DT bindings and ACPI device properties for device drivers have review
+processes. Use them. And, before creating new device properties, check to
+be sure that they have not been defined before and either registered in the
+Linux kernel documentation or the UEFI Forum. If the device drivers supports
+ACPI and DT, please make sure the device properties are consistent in both
+places.
+
+
+Programmable Power Control Resources
+------------------------------------
+Programmable power control resources include such resources as voltage/current
+providers (regulators) and clock sources.
+
+The kernel assumes that power control of these resources is represented with
+Power Resource Objects (ACPI section 7.1). The ACPI core will then handle
+correctly enabling and disabling resources as they are needed. In order to
+get that to work, ACPI assumes each device has defined D-states and that these
+can be controlled through the optional ACPI methods _PS0, _PS1, _PS2, and _PS3;
+in ACPI, _PS0 is the method to invoke to turn a device full on, and _PS3 is for
+turning a device full off.
+
+There are two options for using those Power Resources.
+ -- be managed in _PSx routine which gets called on entry to Dx.
+
+ -- be declared separately as power resources with their own _ON and _OFF
+ methods. They are then tied back to D-states for a particular device
+ via _PRx which specifies which power resources a device needs to be on
+ while in Dx. Kernel then tracks number of devices using a power resource
+ and calls _ON/_OFF as needed.
+
+The kernel ACPI code will also assume that the _PSx methods follow the normal
+ACPI rules for such methods:
+
+ -- If either _PS0 or _PS3 is implemented, then the other method must also
+ be implemented.
+
+ -- If a device requires usage or setup of a power resource when on, the ASL
+ should organize that it is allocated/enabled using the _PS0 method.
+
+ -- Resources allocated or enabled in the _PS0 method should be disabled
+ or de-allocated in the _PS3 method.
+
+ -- Firmware will leave the resources in a reasonable state before handing
+ over control to the kernel.
+
+Such code in _PSx methods will of course be very platform specific. But,
+this allows the driver to abstract out the interface for operating the device
+and avoid having to read special non-standard values from ACPI tables. Further,
+abstracting the use of these resources allows the hardware to change over time
+without requiring updates to the driver.
+
+
+Clocks
+------
+ACPI makes the assumption that clocks are initialized by the firmware --
+UEFI, in this case -- to some working value before control is handed over
+to the kernel. This has implications for devices such as UARTs, or SoC-driven
+LCD displays, for example.
+
+When the kernel boots, the clock is assumed to be set to a reasonable
+working value. If for some reason the frequency needs to change -- e.g.,
+throttling for power management -- the device driver should expect that
+process to be abstracted out into some ACPI method that can be invoked
+(please see the ACPI specification for further recommendations on standard
+methods to be expected) except CPU clocks where CPPC provides a much richer
+interface instead of some method. If it is not, there is no direct way for
+ACPI to control the clocks.
+
+
+Driver Recommendations
+----------------------
+DO NOT remove any DT handling when adding ACPI support for a driver. The
+same device may be used on many different systems.
+
+DO try to structure the driver so that it is data-driven. That is, set up
+a struct containing internal per-device state based on defaults and whatever
+else must be discovered by the driver probe function. Then, have the rest
+of the driver operate off of the contents of that struct. Doing so should
+allow most divergence between ACPI and DT functionality to be kept local to
+the probe function instead of being scattered throughout the driver. For
+example:
+
+static int device_probe_dt(struct platform_device *pdev)
+{
+ /* DT specific functionality */
+ ...
+}
+
+static int device_probe_acpi(struct platform_device *pdev)
+{
+ /* ACPI specific functionality */
+ ...
+}
+
+static int device_probe(stuct platform_device *pdev)
+{
+ ...
+ struct device_node node = pdev->dev.of_node;
+ ...
+
+ if (node)
+ ret = device_probe_dt(pdev);
+ else if (ACPI_HANDLE(&pdev->dev))
+ ret = device_probe_acpi(pdev);
+ else
+ /* other initialization */
+ ...
+ /* Continue with any generic probe operations */
+ ...
+}
+
+DO keep the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE entries together in the driver to make it
+clear the different names the driver is probed for, both from DT and from
+ACPI:
+
+static struct of_device_id virtio_mmio_match[] = {
+ { .compatible = "virtio,mmio", },
+ { }
+};
+MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, virtio_mmio_match);
+
+static const struct acpi_device_id virtio_mmio_acpi_match[] = {
+ { "LNRO0005", },
+ { }
+};
+MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, virtio_mmio_acpi_match);
+
+
+ASWG
+----
+The following areas are not yet fully defined for ARM in the 5.1 version
+of the ACPI specification and are expected to be worked through in the
+UEFI ACPI Specification Working Group (ASWG):
+
+ -- ACPI based CPU topology
+ -- ACPI based CPU idle control
+ -- ACPI based SMMU and its IO topology
+ -- ITS support for GIC in MADT
+
+Participation in this group is open to all UEFI members. Please see
+http://www.uefi.org/workinggroup for details on group membership.
+
+It is the intent of the ARMv8 ACPI kernel code to follow the ACPI specification
+as closely as possible, and to only implement functionality that complies with
+the released standards from UEFI ASWG. As a practical matter, there will be
+vendors that provide bad ACPI tables or violate the standards in some way.
+If this is because of errors, quirks and fixups may be necessary, but will
+be avoided if possible. If there are features missing from ACPI that preclude
+it from being used on a platform, ECRs (Engineering Change Requests) should be
+submitted to ASWG and go through the normal approval process; for those that
+are not UEFI members, many other members of the Linux community are and would
+likely be willing to assist in submitting ECRs.

ACPI kernel uses MADT table for proper GIC initialization. It needs to
parse GIC related subtables, collect CPU interface and distributor
addresses and call driver initialization function (which is hardware
abstraction agnostic). In a similar way, FDT initialize GICv1/2.

NOTE: This commit allow to initialize GICv1/2 basic functionality.
GICv2 vitalization extension, GICv3/4 and ITS are considered as next
steps.

Add Kconfigs to build ACPI on ARM64, and make ACPI available on ARM64.

acpi_idle driver is x86/IA64 dependent now, so make CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR
depend on X86 || IA64, and implement it on ARM64 in the future.

There are two flags: PSCI_COMPLIANT and PSCI_USE_HVC. When set,
the former signals to the OS that the firmware is PSCI compliant.
The latter selects the appropriate conduit for PSCI calls by
toggling between Hypervisor Calls (HVC) and Secure Monitor Calls
(SMC).

FADT table contains such information in ACPI 5.1, FADT table was
parsed in ACPI table init and copy to struct acpi_gbl_FADT, so
use the flags in struct acpi_gbl_FADT for PSCI init.

Since ACPI 5.1 doesn't support self defined PSCI function IDs,
which means that only PSCI 0.2+ is supported in ACPI.

Hi,

This is the v7 of ACPI core patches for ARM64 based on ACPI 5.1

updates from v6:
- Rebased on top of 3.19-rc4, add Mack Salter's patch to use
the early_ioremap after paging_init() for ACPI table mappings;

- Two patches about converting apic_id to phys_id to make it arch
agnostic were already merged into RC4 by Rafael.

- Split patch "Parse FADT table to get PSCI flags for PSCI init"
into two as Lorenzo's suggestion, also fix typo and lack of __init
for psci_0_2_set_functions() which is spotted by Lorenzo.

- Add Tested-by from Yijing Wang.

previous version is here:
v6: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/4/40

1. Why we need ACPI on ARM64?

- Grant already posted a blog about this, and stated clearly
why we need ACPI on ARM64:

http://www.secretlab.ca/archives/151


2. What we need to do before the arm64 ACPI core patches
could be merged into the kernel?

- Al Stone posted a TODO list and updates v2 for the
progress we made:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg390069.html

- so from the progress we can see that we already finished
most of the items, and _OSI we got a plan to fix it, RFC
patch is on the way.


This patch set was tested on FVP by Fuwei, and booted ok as expected.
(No functional change since last version)

Thanks
Hanjun

Introduce ACPI_IRQ_MODEL_GIC which is needed for ARM64 as GIC is
used, and then register device's gsi with the core IRQ subsystem.

acpi_register_gsi() is similar to DT based irq_of_parse_and_map(),
since gsi is unique in the system, so use hwirq number directly
for the mapping.

MADT contains the information for MPIDR which is essential for
SMP initialization, parse the GIC cpu interface structures to
get the MPIDR value and map it to cpu_logical_map(), and add
enabled cpu with valid MPIDR into cpu_possible_map.

ACPI 5.1 only has two explicit methods to boot up SMP, PSCI and
Parking protocol, but the Parking protocol is only specified for
ARMv7 now, so make PSCI as the only way for the SMP boot protocol
before some updates for the ACPI spec or the Parking protocol spec.

Parking protocol patches for SMP boot will be sent to upstream when
the new version of Parking protocol is ready.

Introduce one early parameters "off" and "force" for "acpi", acpi=off
will be the default behavior for ARM64, so introduce acpi=force to
enable ACPI on ARM64.

Disable ACPI before early parameters parsed, and enable it to pass
"acpi=force" if people want use ACPI on ARM64. This ensures DT be
the prefer one if ACPI table and DT both are provided at this moment.

From: Al Stone <al.s...@linaro.org>

As we want to get ACPI tables to parse and then use the information
for system initialization, we should get the RSDP (Root System
Description Pointer) first, it then locates Extended Root Description
Table (XSDT) which contains all the 64-bit physical address that
pointer to other boot-time tables.

Introduce acpi.c and its related head file in this patch to provide
fundamental needs of extern variables and functions for ACPI core,
and then get boot-time tables as needed.
- asm/acenv.h for arch specific ACPICA environments and
implementation, It is needed unconditionally by ACPI core;
- asm/acpi.h for arch specific variables and functions needed by
ACPI driver core;
- acpi.c for ARM64 related ACPI implementation for ACPI driver
core;

acpi_boot_table_init() is introduced to get RSDP and boot-time tables,
it will be called in setup_arch() before paging_init(), so we should
use eary_memremap() mechanism here to get the RSDP and all the table
pointers.

FADT Major.Minor version was introduced in ACPI 5.1, it is the same
as ACPI version.

In ACPI 5.1, some major gaps are fixed for ARM, such as updates in
MADT table for GIC and SMP init, without those updates, we can not
get the MPIDR for SMP init, and GICv2/3 related init information, so
we can't boot arm64 ACPI properly with table versions predating 5.1.

If firmware provides ACPI tables with ACPI version less than 5.1,
OS will be messed up with those information and have no way to init
smp and GIC, so disable ACPI if we get an FADT table with version
less that 5.1.

Commit 0e63ea48b4d8 (arm64/efi: add missing call to early_ioremap_reset())
added a missing call to early_ioremap_reset(). This triggers a BUG if code
tries using early_ioremap() after the early_ioremap_reset(). This is a
problem for some ACPI code which needs short-lived temporary mappings
after paging_init() but before acpi_early_init() in start_kernel(). This
patch adds definitions for the __late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap()
which avoids the BUG by allowing later use of early_ioremap().

Hi Catalin and Will,

I'll get right to the point: Can we please have this series queued up
for v3.20? I really think we've hit the point where it is more
valuable to merge it (or at least prepare to merge it) rather than
keeping it out of mainline.

First, I think we've agreed that the patches themselves are fine. The
remaining objections are based on maturity and whether or not we can
handle long term support. At this point, for all of the items on Al's
ACPI todo list, we've either got solutions for the problems, or solid
plans on how it is going to get solved (I'll go through each item one
by one at the end of this email). I won't claim that list is
exhaustive though. Please shout if there are new issues that need to
be added.

Second, real platforms using ACPI are showing up in various places.
Platforms are available from both APM and AMD. Huawei have spoken up
with test results that the patches boot on their unreleased platform
(Huawei needs GICv3 extensions, but otherwise it works). The
commercial products that are being built right now are being built
around these patches. Fedora Rawhide has picked them up also.

Continuing to keep the patches out I think is having the opposite
effect from what is desired. Catalin, you've told me a few times that
saying "no" is the only leverage you have to keeping crap drivers out
of the kernel until things mature, and by extension influence how
firmware gets implemented. However, as far as drivers are concerned,
there is nothing stopping maintainers from picking up ACPI drivers for
ARM hardware regardless of whether or not the core ARM code is merged.
If a driver depends on CONFIG_ACPI, and if the code seems to look
good, there is nothing preventing it from being merged. There are
already ARM related ACPI patches going into mainline.

For example: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/12/25/120

Instead, keeping these patches out means that hardware is getting
developed and tested against Fedora, early access RHEL and Linaro
kernels. It means that we're abdicating on any influence mainline has
over how those platforms are developed. The longer these patches stay
out of mainline, the greater the potential for delta between what is
in the vendor kernels and what we accept into mainline.

The other concern may be keeping crap out of the core ARM code, but I
really don't think that will be an issue. The two of you still have
complete control over arch/arm64 and I fully expect crap code will be
aggressively NAKed whether or not it is ACPI related. All that merging
this series does is lays down a foundation of functionality on the
stuff we are pretty confident is correct. It keeps the delta between
mainline and the development code small and restricted to only the
bits that are still in flux.

Finally, keeping them out has the practical effect of causing extra
work to continually rebase them, while potentially running into new
conflicts and bugs, for little if any real benefit. Whereas getting
them into linux-next starts giving us some feedback on conflicts with
other things that are being queued up for mainline. Not to mention
reviewer fatigue having to go over the same set of patches again and
again.

Right now we're at -rc4. We'll be at -rc5 this weekend, and quite
possibly have a new merge window right at the start of Connect.
Queuing these patches up now isn't even a 100% commitment for you to
ask Linus to pull them. We can have further discussions at Connect. If
you're still not satisfied then drop them out again for another cycle.
However, if they aren't queued up now, then we're looking at mid-June
before they show up in a mainline kernel release.

As promised earlier, I said that I'd go through the todo list items.
Here they are with discussion:
1. Define how Aarch64 OS identifies itself to firmware
- We've pretty much settled on dropping the _OSI interface entirely,
which is trivial to do. All of the current platforms can adapt to
this. There are still some discussions around _OSC, but given that
this is the first release there isn't anything for the platform to
differentiate on regarding features. This isn't going to affect
current platforms, but rather will be important with the release of
the next version of the ACPI spec. It shouldn't affect our ability to
merge core support

2. Linux must choose DT booting by default when offered both ACPI and
* Status: DONE, but being revisited for possible algorithmic change

3. Linux UEFI/ACPI testing tools must be made available
* Done. We're implementing more tests of course, but that is expected.

4. Set clear expectations for those providing ACPI for use with Linux
* We have a document that covers what we know so far, and will
continue to expand it. Also talking with the SBBR folks to move
relevant requirements into the SBBR doc.

5. Platform support patches need verification and review
* ACPI core works on at least the Foundation model, Juno, APM
Mustang, and AMD Seattle
* There still are driver patches being discussed. See Al's summary
for details
* As I argued above, the state of driver patches isn't going to be

6. How does the kernel handle_DSD usage?
While important, these issues are separate from whether or not to
merge the core aarch64 code. This work was defined and driven by Intel
for their embedded platforms, and it is already in mainline. Keeping
aarch64 support out isn't going to prevent drivers using it from being
merged. I don't think this should be a reason for blocking this
series.

7. Why is ACPI required?
I hope I've addressed this[1], but discussion continues.

Before you even ask for this, please look at the patches and realise
that there is a complete lack of Reviewed-by tags on the code (well,
apart from trivial Kconfig changes). In addition, the series touches on
other subsystems like clocksource, irqchip, acpi and I don't see any
acks from the corresponding maintainers. So even if I wanted to merge
the series, there is no way it can be done without additional
reviews/acks. On the document (last patch), I'd like to see a statement
from HP as they've been vocal in private but no public endorsement of
this doc.

I also have trouble seeing the full picture. Is there a git repository
somewhere with this series and any additional patches required for a
real hardware platform?

That's pretty subjective.

I wasn't really referring to simple driver changes like the above but to
whole subsystems like clocks done in ACPI. My point was that before we
enable arm64 ACPI, we need to have some clear guidelines to firmware and
hardware vendors, otherwise if we don't know how to do it properly, we
shouldn't even bother (or we may end up re-creating the DT support in
ACPI; I'm not convinced that's sorted yet).

I'm not buying this argument. Putting pressure on maintainers to merge
something because Fedora or some other distro has merged them is not the
right approach. If such Linux vendors ignore arguments on the list just
for the sake of providing ACPI support, there is a high chance that they
will accept non-standard code any other time when the kernel community
disagrees.

Just to be clear, I don't block the ACPI patches for fun, reading these
long threads is not fun anymore. I don't have any religious arguments
against ACPI, longer term I see it as a first class citizen alongside
DT, but I want to make sure we do it properly and have a clear vision on
how we support it in the future. You can call this "delayed
gratification" if you want.

And it's not about code going into arch/arm64 and not even small driver
changes to enable ACPI but the longer term plans on how we reduce
(rather than eliminate) future kernel quirks because we didn't first get
to an agreement on how kernel and firmware interact. Things are getting
better and Al's to-do list is a good benchmark (more comments below).

(I have my concerns with DT as well but the requirement of compatibility
between older/newer kernels/firmware is not as strict)

17 patches is really not too hard and it looks like the number is slowly
decreasing as they are picked by the corresponding maintainers.

See the beginning of the email about the prerequisites for queuing
something up into linux-next.

I'm fine with this.

OK.

Moving bits of it into SBBR is a good long term plan but it should not
prevent the merging. However, I'd like to see more vendors ok'ing the
kernel document.

We are still lacking here. To quote Al, "First version for AMD Seattle
has been posted to the public linaro-acpi mailing list for initial
review". Sorry but I don't follow linaro-acpi list. I don't know what's
in those patches and I can't tell which subsystems they touch, whether
maintainers agree with them. So in conclusion, I'm not confident the
arm64 hardware ACPI story looks that great yet.

As for Juno and foundation models, I don't consider them server
platforms.

Intel folk is coming from the other direction, relatively standard
hardware getting slightly more non-standard and they need a few bits
added in _DSD. On ARM, we have completely non-standard hardware with DT
used to describe complex topology (clocks, pin controls, voltage
regulators etc.) with a high risk that vendors see _DSD as a work around
standardising hardware or doing it properly in ACPI (whatever that
means, AML?).

That's great. I see this as a good reference for the future.

To complete the picture, we probably need a "Why *not* ACPI on ARM" blog
as well explaining when ACPI is *not* suitable (e.g. no SBSA
compliance). The arm-acpi.txt covers the ACPI requirements from the
kernel perspective and, by contrast, DT would be better suited for
certain platforms. The way you present it is that ACPI solves lots of
problems that DT doesn't but not necessarily where the ACPI limitations
are (vs DT).

There's enough here to get people started. Additional
information can be added in later patches as needed and
as we get more experience with ACPI on ARM64.

There's probably a bit of a process problem here - these patches are all
being posted as part of big and apparently controversial threads with
subject lines in the form "ARM / ACPI:" so people could be forgiven for
just not even reading the e-mails enough to notice changes to their
subsystems. Is it worth posting those patches separately more directly
to the relevant maintainers?

I think it's beneficial to post the entire series as one thread, but to
change the subject line of each patch to adequately reflect the affected
subsystem.

thx,

Just changing the subject lines to be more suitable would help, but
given the painful thread it's probably worth going the extra step if
the lack of these reviews is a causing problems - I know that even with
a suitable subject line if I'm busy then I'm fairly likely to zone out
something in the middle a big series that doesn't seem to be going
anywhere.

True, I was merely expressing a preference. A lot of series containing
irqchip changes tend to have build dependencies outside of
drivers/irqchip. So I like to see the whole picture to decide how best
to handle the patches.

I suppose the ideal solution would be to have a "mute sub-thread" option
in the MUA. But that doesn't help us today. :)

Whichever way they do it is fine by me.

This is solely my fault -- too much time on processes, email, and
documentation, not enough time on the Seattle patches. And not
enough Seattles to go around for someone else to pick up the slack.

I am aware not everyone is subscribed to linaro-acpi; we use that
for internal review before posting more broadly, which is the only
reason I sent them there.

I'm in the middle of updating them as I have time, based on really
good feedback from Arnd; few of them are terribly new (the very first
posting was [0]) -- it's mostly a matter of rebasing, integrating
updates from AMD and others, and reacting to the comments. One can
also see what these patches will probably look like via one of the
Fedora kernel trees [1].


[0] https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/15/1308
[1] https://git.fedorahosted.org/git/kernel-arm64 -- this is
what I run on an AMD Seattle daily driver, btw, and is used
in Fedora 21 as well.

The V7 patch series has also been re-tested on AMD Seattle server
platform along with the "Introduce ACPI support for ahci_platform

As an aside: a few of us have discretely assisted in ensuring that the
right folks have access to hardware platforms over the past few months.
If one of the upstream maintainers does not have v8 hardware and doing
so will unblock progress please get in touch off list.

For the ACPI part, Rafael already said that "Having looked at the
patches recently, I don't see any major problems in them from the ACPI
core perspective, so to me they are good to go." [1]
Is that kind of ack for this ?

Is this patch still required, now that we have PCI for arm64? I know the
ACPI spec doesn't require PCI but do we expect any arm64 servers aimed
at ACPI without PCIe?

Anyway, that's not the main point, see more below.

Do these functions have anything to do with the subject? You add them in
arch/arm64/kernel/pci.c which is compiled only when CONFIG_PCI while the
commit log implies that you add them to allow CONFIG_PCI to be off.

When PCI is enabled and the above functions are compiled in, do they
need to return any useful data or just -EINVAL. Are they ever called?

So you implement the !CONFIG_PCI functions here to return -ENOSYS while
the arm64 CONFIG_PCI ones would return -EINVAL. I'm confused.

I guess we can call this an "ack" from the ACPI core perspective. But
it's not just ACPI core that this series touches. You should probably
get a renewed ack for the latest series as the message you quoted is 4
months old.

A question that Rafael asked was how you plan to get these merged. You
(or Grant) chose the arm64 maintainers and that's fine by me but it
doesn't mean you don't need acks/reviews for the patches in this series.

Indeed, keeping the series as one thread is better. Apart from a
slightly less misleading subject, I suggest Hanjun that he passes each
patch via get_maintainer.pl and adds the corresponding Cc: lines to the
commit log. I think that's a clearer way keep track of who needs to
ack/review the patches.

Do you have some simple branch against mainline with just the ACPI core
patches and what's required for AMD Seattle? I have no plans to dig
through the Fedora kernels.

Is the ACPI implementation really expecting to only deal with a single
domain for interrupts?

This is likely to lead to a number of issues as we're now implementing
stacked domains (GICv2m, GICv3 ITS are already using that model, and
"wire-to MSI translators" will certainly do the same).

This means that, despite having a single GIC described in ACPI, you may
end-up with multiple domains. I expect you'll be safe with MSI (assuming
you never describe them in ACPI), but any form of wire-to-MSI
translation won't work at all.

Thanks,

M.

And so is GICv2m, apparently (see below).

EFAULT? That feels weird. This error code should be returned if an
access would generate (or has actually generated) a fault, but this is
not the case here. Same for the other cases below.

I assume you never tried to port the GICv2m driver to ACPI, right?
Because the above code actively prevents the GIC domain to be defined as
a stacked domain, making it impossible for the v2m widget to be
implemented on top of GIC. But maybe legacy interrupts are enough?

Have you realised that this file is probably compiled on multiple
architecture, none of which particularly cares about ACPI or the GIC?
This is (still) very ugly.

I still think this should be implemented properly, following the path
shown by the line just above. Even if we only have two interrupt
controllers until the end of times (which moderately likely unlikely to
be true). But I'm tired of sounding like a stuck record, so I'll STFU.

Thanks,

Right, I didn't mean stop sending things as part of this series but
rather send them separately as well.

I'm not saying stop sending them as part of this series, I'm saying it
might help to get people to look at them if they were also sent
disassociated from it - in the situations where I end up ignoring things
that look controversial but unexciting for my bit of it I know I won't
even bother opening the e-mails since I know it's just going to get
resent anyway quite often with revisions from whatever makes the rest of
the series controversial, I expect others will do the same.

Actually, another thing that might help would be if you and/or Will were
to prod the relevant people for review, letting them know that the
controversy isn't likely to affect their bits.

Hmm, we *could*, but having maintainers go round poking other people to
review patches feels like the wrong way round to me. The authors should
be taking ownership of this series and that's half of the problem we
had in previous versions.

It needs to be clear that Hanjun/Al/Graeme are the ones running the show,
not just now, but (even more importantly) when people start building on
top of the base support. If Catalin and I have to go around asking for
review, it sets us off on the wrong foot imo.

It's sufficient for what is supported right now, and easily changed in
a patch series to add GICv2m support. This shouldn't be a blocking
issue as it isn't actively dangerous. It is merely limited, and that
is okay.

"very ugly?" That's overstating things a bit. We may quibble about the
name, but we're just talking about a setup hook function that may or
may not be implemented. How about we put acpi_irq_init() here and make
it an inline macro that directly calls acpi_gic_init() when ACPI is
enabled on AARCH64? Then the function can be extended by architectures
as needed, and default to an empty inline otherwise. When (if) we have
more than one hook that needs to be called from it, then we can
refactor it to be more like of_irq_init().

As for other architectures calling this function, but not caring about
ACPI, I believe it was your suggestion to put it here! :-)

What has been done here isn't an unusual choice. We've got stuff all
over the kernel that may or may not be implemented depending on what
the architecture supports. If the function call is renamed to
acpi_init_irq(), are you content?

Patch should be reordered in the series and must be sequenced before
patch 5 for bisectability (that patch implements DT unflattening if ACPI
is disabled), or squashed with previous patches.

My (full) suggestion was to do it like we've done it for DT, and I don't
think I varied much from this point of view. Yes, calling it
acpi_irq_init() would be a good start, and having the ACPI-compatible
irqchips to be self-probable even better.

<lack-of-sleep-rant>

Hell, if nobody beats me to it, maybe I'll just write that code, with
proper entry points in the various GIC drivers. Yes, this is
infrastructure. Maybe it is grossly overdesigned. But I really spend too
much time dealing with the crap that people are happy to pile on top of
the GIC code to be madly enthusiastic about the general "good enough"
attitude.

</lack-of-sleep-rant>

Or to put it in a slightly more diplomatic way: If ACPI is to be our
future, can we please make the future look a bit better?

Thanks,

M.

I have tested ACPI-enablement patches for the amd-xgbe/amd-xgbe-phy
drivers that I'm about to submit upstream with the V7 patch series
on the AMD Seattle server platform. There does not appear to be support
for the _CCA attribute in this patch series. The amd-xgbe driver will
setup the device domain and cache attributes based on the presence of
this attribute, but it requires the arch support to assign the proper
DMA operations in order for it to all work correctly.

Overriding the _CCA attribute in the driver, I was able to successfully
test the driver and this patch series.

Thanks,
Tom

Hopefully this will all be addressed when the IORT parts of ACPI have
settled down (the current proposal allows for these attributes to be
described as well as their interaction with things like IOMMUs).

In the meantime, are you falling back to non-coherent DMA? If so, what
attributes have you settled on? We need to be really careful not to
corrupt data during cache invalidatation when mapping a non-coherent
buffer for the CPU.

I think in case of ACPI we should use cache-coherent as the default,
as this is what all servers will use for DMA masters.

Nor was I expecting you to; I only added it as additional reference
material, should one be interested.

The version of patches sent to the linaro-acpi list are from the Linaro
acpi.git tree, and are precisely what you describe; those are the ones
being updated.

Last time I heard in some call, it was agreed that _CCA properties
should always be present and Linux should not make any assumption (there
is no safe assumption here). While better options may appear in ACPI,
_CCA is what we currently have.

The override I used in the driver was to set the device to use AxDOMAIN
of 3 and AxCACHE of 0 so that the caches are not accessed.

I don't agree. The dma-coherent we have for device-tree isn't nearly
expressive enough for the kind of things we want to describe and there's
no reason to make the same mistake in ACPI, especially as it *is* being
addressed by IORT. If we run with _CCA, then we're going to be stuck
supporting something that isn't fit for purpose and which will likely be
abused to describe both fixed features of the system and software
configuration preferences. It also opens up a can of worms if we have to
support a mixture of _CCA and IORT in the future.

Or are you suggesting that we ignore _CCA and just assume cache-coherency?
In that case, how do we support systems that aren't cache coherent, where
not being cache coherent includes devices that require either device or
IOMMU configuration to enable cacheable transactions?

The on-board ethernet on Seattle requires the driver to program its AXI
attributes, so configuring it to be a coherent master actually means
"program the same cacheable AXI settings as you have on the CPU". That
sounds like Linux should be doing it to me, but even if the firmware takes
a guess at "normal cacheable WBRWA", it's not clear to me whether that
register persists across things like adapter reset.

Tom?

There's also the situation where the firmware hasn't initialised the
register and Linux realises this during probe. What should it do then?

I was thinking we'd ignore _CCA because as you say a simple on/off flag
would not be enough to describe what we have to do for noncoherent
devices. I can't think of any reason why a server hardware would include
noncoherent devices, so if they are configurable they should be configured
into coherent mode by the firmware.

To clarify: I don't think we should just ignore _CCA in Linux, but instead
see if it lists the device as coherent and warn loudly if it's configured
as noncoherent, then set the dma-mask pointer to NULL to prevent DMA from
being started on it.

Catalin,

For Seattle, you could use the https://git.linaro.org/leg/acpi/acpi.git
acpi-5.1-v7, and it would also need the AHCI ACPI patch here
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/5/662).

Thanks,

In case of a 10gbit ethernet adapter, there really should be no question
regarding whether to set it coherent or not. Can't Linux just always
set this AXI attribute in the driver?

I have to ask. We've got no idea what you are thinking in terms of merge
timeline. The ToDo list is part of the question, certainly, but if I
have to ask flat-out to get some progress, then I will. Up to this
point, the primary objections have been coming from you and other ARM
maintainers, not the ACPI maintainer, and not other subsystem
maintainers, so of course I'm going to address my arguments to you and
Will.

You and I are both maintainers; an awful lot of our job is subjective
opinion on whether something is ready or not! That's why I said "I
really think" rather than "We have". :-)

The rest of my email is laying out my argument for why I think it is
time to start queuing these patches up.

Whole subsystem changes aren't the big risk. Saying yes to this series
does not commit us to also picking up badly formed ACPI infrastructure.
Changes to subsystems get a lot more scrutiny than drivers do.

As for clocks, pinctrl, and regulators, the answer has been simple and
clear for a long time. No. We won't do anything automatic with any of
those in mainline until there is an ACPI specification that addresses
them. Until that time they are out-of-spec and won't be supported.

Also, my point still stands. Subsystem changes do not hinge on whether
or not arch/arm64 has ACPI support. Changes have been merged to add ACPI
support to platform_bus, i2c and spi subsystems well over a year ago.

It's not like I'm arguing for stuff that isn't ready to be merged. Even
back last October there was broad agreement from all of us (Will, Olof,
Marc Z. Mark R., myself) that these patches are correct and that the
remaining objections are related to larger questions of ecosystem. My
argument is that for all the outstanding issues, we've either got a
solution, or a process for working it out with hardware vendors. Keeping
things out of mainline now I think has hit the point of actively hurting
development. We're still having to dicker about with the core patches
that aren't supposed to be contentious anymore, and we're making the
hardware vendors work out of tree unnecessarily.

Doing it properly in ACPI merely means giving the drivers the data
and/or methods that it needs. The ACPI spec does define some methods to
be used by OSPM, but everything else is completely arbitrary, and always
has been.

The *only* thing that _DSD does new is to define a specific format for
adding key-value properties to an ACPI object that follow the rules of
properties. Apple Mac hardware has done exactly the same thing for
years, except it stuffed that stuff into the _DSM method.

So, _DSD is no less "doing it property in ACPI" than AML methods would
be. In either case it is the responsibility of the driver to know what
extra properties/methods might be attached to the device, and to know
what to do with those properties/methods. The core OS doesn't care, and
won't touch them.

*so what* if vendor toss odd data into a _DSD property. It still won't
wire up to the automatic clock/pinctrl/voltage infrastructure that we
use for DT because none of those things will be there. It won't make a
non-standard ARM machine suddenly behave.

However, what we do have is a rule that bindings must be documented,
whether they be DT or ACPI. So, regardless of what vendors try to shove
into ACPI, the rule is that driver support shouldn't be merged without
documented bindings (either in the kernel tree, or UEFI forum's repo),
and that gives us some leverage.

What we can also do is create a least-effort path for driver authors.
There are helper functions for parsing _DSD that are easier than doing
something custom. It is less effort to use existing DT bindings with the
device properties API than to try and have a separate set of ACPI
bindings.

But, still, I strongly contend that this is a sideshow when looking at
the core ARM patches. _DSD code is happening right now, with or without
aarch64.

I thought I was pretty clear in that document that ACPI is only
preferred for the general purpose ecosystem (OS vendor and HW vendor are
separate companies, and selected by the end user). Everywhere else the
preference is DT. However, I can write more on this topic and make it
clear that I'm talking about SBSA hardware. It will probably take me a
week or so to get that written. Certainly before we're in Hong Kong for
Connect.

That's true in general but equally right now it's also fairly clear that
this isn't going anywhere immediately (and one might assume potentially
may end up needing substantial rework) for arm64 related reasons which
creates a bit of stop energy that's more easily unblocked by the arm64
maintainers than others. From that point of view I guess just giving
the ACPI folks something to point at to indicate that the remaining
issues on the architecture side aren't likely to affect the relevant
code would probably help also.

Actually there is strong precedence for merging things because distros
felt it was necessary. That's how we ended up with drivers/staging
in the first place.

It's not the nicest way to merge stuff, but it's something we cannot
ignore. Unfortunately it seems we already have the nonstandard code,
as Fedora includes the APM Mustang support that in previous reviews
we have concluded would not be suitable for upstream because it (in
particular the PCI support) is too far from SBSA.

I did a large part of the review. I raised some important concerns about
the Seattle port, and addressing those will result in incompatible
changes, but I did not see any show-stoppers there.

To summarize, the main concerns were:

- AMD specific bindings for generic devices (ARM pl061, pl022, ...)
- network driver using _DSD with a binding that is incompatible with
the existing DT binding. I believe this one was getting addressed,
but I have not seen an update.
What about PRP0001? Do we recommend against using it or should we try
to get everyone to use it for devices that already have a DT binding?

One result of the Seattle review was a patch to use class codes for
standard devices like AHCI. This is great and I think it's being merged
now, but we still have to figure out how to do this for standard
licensed IP blocks that don't already have a PCI class code, and whose
responsibility it should be to define a binding for such devices.

I think it would be helpful for the purpose of merging the patches if
that statement can be stronger and say that DT is required for devices
other than SBSA hardware, rather than recommended. We can always relax
the rule later if there is a good reason, but it's hard to make it
stricter after the fact.

Needed for hotplug ? Remember that each patch must be self-contained.

This patch is clearly not, if I did not know you need to carry this
stuff over after boot for physical cpu hotplugging it would be hard to
understand most of this code.

Think about that for anyone looking at your commit-log as a stand alone
entity in the kernel history.

It would be __init, except that you might need it after boot for

I do not see much point in calling cpu_get_ops with NULL, and adding
the check in it to return NULL when the parameter is NULL.

What would you expect from cpu_get_ops when called with NULL other than
a NULL pointer ?

You could move:

cpu_ops[cpu] = cpu_get_ops(acpi_psci_present() ? "psci" : NULL);

out of the if and remove the else, do not know if it makes code clearer,
shorter for certain.

This __initconst removal should be explained either with code needing
it or through a comment. You can't make changes with future patches
in mind, since they may never get merged and you leave code in this
patch incomplete.

As far as I know if physical CPU hotplug can't/won't be done on ARM64 your
patch would make changes that are not needed, and miss some changes
that are (eg removing enabled_cpus or make it __initdata).

You can't write a patch with assumptions on subsequent patches.

With DT you call cpu_read_bootcpu_ops() and then of_smp_init_cpus()
with acpi you have one function that does both, it is not really
neat.

I'm not entirely sure the other maintainers looked at the patches at
all, mainly because they thought it's all too ARM specific. Pushing to
linux-next is a first step but I wouldn't do it without acks from the
corresponding maintainers.

Things are getting better but if we didn't have objections starting a
year ago, I don't think as much effort would have been dedicated to
things like arm-acpi.txt, clarifying the ACPI spec around GIC support
etc. From my perspective, pushing a non-working (IOW not fully
functional) implementation in the kernel with a plan to sort things out
later doesn't really work. I wasn't fully convinced that Linaro will
dedicate the same effort once the code goes into mainline. So maybe not
the nicest approach but blocking ACPI merging is a way to see longer
term plans thought out.

Anyway, we now got to a point where the core patches are ok (-ish, there
are some comments to be addressed), we have some documents and guidance
that can evolve in time and we can show this working on real hardware
(well, not fully functional, for example you don't yet have lower CPU
power states). I'll have a look at the branch Al pointed me at (I would
have preferred linux-arm-kernel discussions rather than linaro-acpi
which I don't follow) but in the meantime I trust Arnd to have
scrutinised the Seattle patches ;).

I'll do another review of the ACPI core patches next week but with the
current comments addressed and acks from the subsystem maintainers
affected by these patches, we could try to push them to linux-next (but
no commitment for a specific kernel version). Once in -next, subsequent
fixes would have to go on top to avoid rebasing.

The problem I have with this process is that the _DSD properties would
not be reviewed by the kernel maintainers before they are approved by
the UEFI forum. So the kernel community are just faced with a set of
patches to support approved _DSD bindings and at that point it's late to
push back, especially when such bindings were already implemented in
firmware.

I'd like to see some proper guidance for _DSD bindings rather than some
examples like "linux,trigger" currently on the UEFI website.

Coherency is easy to get wrong, so the path could be broken. In fact
on highbank, it is the non-coherent path that is broken. You could
find out pretty far down the road that you need to change
configuration. But yes, I agree with your point as you pretty much
have to run coherently for decent performance on high speed
peripherals.

If we are mucking with AXI specifics in the kernel on ACPI systems,
we've already failed to abstract the platform. AXI is not even part of
the architecture.

I think so, how about make ACPI depends on PCI on ARM64 too?

My bad, I can update the change log to make it explicit it is needed
when PCI is enabled.

They will be called if PCI root bridge is defined in DSDT, should I
print some warning message before it is implemented?

If we make ACPI depends on PCI on ARM64, these two stub functions

I already checked all the patches with get_maintainer.pl, and CC the

Hi Folks,

Sorry for top posting from bed. The mainstream servers will all likely do PCIe but there are several that may not. They should not be excluded. That said, if we booted a previously built kernel on a system without an MCFG and got no ECAM/root then things would probably still work.

I think it'll work out either way but for the record there is no requirement to do PCIe on ARM servers that conform to spec.

Jon.

OK, Catalin already said that was not the main point of the
comments for this patch, I think the title and change log
of the patch is inconsistent with the code makes Catalin confused,
I will update them in next version.

Well what we are talking about is the presence of CONFIG_PCI=y which even
in Jons case will be true as he wants to run the same kernel on both
sets of hardware.

Now the architecture has PCI support I think its safe to remove the make
PCI optional part of the patch as this should be handled runtime not
compile time.

Yup. And btw, the ACPI+PCI use case works beautifully already today. I
will followup to my other Tested-by with a bit more detail later, but
these patches have successfully been used on a wide range of PCIe based
hardware already (I personally have tried a number of 10G network cards,
SATA, USB, and even a graphics card or two for giggles).

I missed that part, must be something wrong work in Sunday :)
I will update the patch with ACPI depends on PCI, which makes
thing much simpler.

I agree, if we never see a reason to build a kernel image with
!PCI && ACPI, we can simplify this patch.

My point: do they need to return real data when a PCI root bridge is
defined in DSDT or you always expect them to always return some -E*? Can
you explain why?

Nitpick: you could actually squash this patch into the previous one to
keep the acpi disable/enable logic in one place.

Did we get to any conclusion here? DT being the preferred one is fine
when both DT and ACPI are present but do we still want the kernel to
ignore ACPI altogether if DT is not present? It's a bit harder to detect
the presence of DT at this point since the EFI_STUB added one already. I
guess we could move the "acpi=force" argument passing to EFI_STUB if no
DT is present at boot.

Since the EFI stub populates the /chosen node in DT, I would prefer
for it to add a property there to indicate whether it created the DT
from scratch rather than adding ACPI specific stuff in there (even if
it is just a string to concatenate)

Do you need a disable_acpi() call here as well?

This works for me. So we could pass "acpi=force" in EFI stub if it
created the DT from scratch *and* ACPI tables are present (can it detect
the latter? And maybe it could print something if none are available).
If that works, the actual kernel can assume that ACPI needs to be
explicitly enabled via acpi=force, irrespective of how much information
it has in DT.

Erm, that is not at all what I meant. What I meant was, that if it is
interesting to the kernel proper to know whether the DT was created
from scratch by the stub rather than received from the firmware, we
can record that particular fact in the /chosen node, and nothing else.
How this is interpreted is up to the kernel proper entirely.

Note that the stub may outlive many subsequent kexec reboots, so
dividing policy like this across the stub/kernel boundary is asking
for trouble imo. For instance, booting with a DT via kexec would be
impossible unless we add special handling for this case, which is
exactly what I tried to avoid with my latest virtmap series.

That works as well and I agree with you that splitting the decision
between EFI stub and the kernel could cause trouble.

Basically what we need is to know whether DT has platform description or
just the chosen node. There could be many ways to achieve this but EFI
stub passing such information is a good place (and acpi=force went a bit
too far ;)).

I haven't paid much attention to the kexec series yet but I assume a
kexec'ed kernel doesn't go through EFI stub again.

Ditto for me. I think this is a fine solution. And, yes, the stub can
easily detect the presence of ACPI by looking in the UEFI config table.

I get the point behind doing this, but could we not have it pass in a
different parameter than =force? Perhaps something new? I'd like to
separate out the case that it was enabled automatically vs explicitly
forced on by a user wanting to use ACPI on a system with both tables.

Ard had a point, so we should probably not pass acpi=force from EFI stub
(especially since a user may explicitly pass acpi=off irrespective of DT
presence). Some other property in the chosen node? It's not even an ABI
since that's a contract between EFI stub and the rest of the kernel, so
an in-kernel only interface.

Not strictly true once kexec is in place. Then it becomes a stub ->
kernel -> kernel -> kernel -> ... interface, alnog with the rest of the
properties the stub puts in the DTB.

Having something like /chosen/linux,uefi-stub-generated-dtb sounds sane
regardless.
