Commit 43f5c77bcbd2 ("PCI: aardvark: Fix reporting CRS value") fixed
handling of CRS response and when CRSSVE flag was not enabled it marked CRS
response as failed transaction (due to simplicity).

But pci-aardvark.c driver is already waiting up to the PIO_RETRY_CNT count
for PIO config response and so we can with a small change implement
re-issuing of config requests as described in PCIe base specification.

This change implements re-issuing of config requests when response is CRS.
Set upper bound of wait cycles to around PIO_RETRY_CNT, afterwards the
transaction is marked as failed and an all-ones value is returned as
before.

We do this by returning appropriate error codes from function
advk_pcie_check_pio_status(). On CRS we return -EAGAIN and caller then
reissues transaction.

Does this fix a problem?

Hello Bjorn,

Pali has suspisions that certain Marvell WiFi cards may need this [1]
to work, but we do not have them so we cannot test this.

I guess you think this should be considered a new feature instead of a
fix, so that the Fixes tag should be removed, yes? Pali was of the
opinion that this patch "fixes" the driver to conform more to the PCIe
specification, that is why we added the Fixes tag.

Anyway if you think this should be considered a new feature, this patch
can be skipped. The following patches apply even without it.

I do not think we should apply to the mainline a fix that can't be
tested sorry, I will skip this patch.

Lorenzo,

my explanation was incorrect.

The functionality added by this patch _is_ tested and correctly does a
retry: it was done by simulating a CRS reply.

We just don't know whether there are real cards used by users that
need this functionality (the mentioned Marvell card may be such a card).

My claim is that the spec allows root complexes that retry zero times,
so we must assume such a root complex exists and we cannot rely on any
retries.  If such a root complex exists, this patch might fix a
problem, but only for aardvark.  It would be better to fix the problem
in a way that works for all PCIe controllers.

I'm playing devil's advocate here, and it's quite possible that I'm
interpreting the spec incorrectly.  Maybe the Marvell card is a way to
test this in the real world.

Hello Bjorn,

this is what I understand from Pali's explanation, please correct me if 
something is wrong

- If HW supports CRSSVE bit, OS can ask HW to switch from HW-retry to 
SW-retry mode by setting this CRSSVE bit.

- If HW does not support CRSSVE bit, it means that HW supports only 
HW-retry.

- By default CRSSVE is disabled, and it is optional, so HW is required 
to support HW-retry.

- Linux' PCI core supports handling CRSSVE in probe.c: when HW says it 
supports it, PCI core enables it and retries on 0xffff0001 in function 
pci_bus_wait_crs().

- Aardvark controller violates specification: it does not support 
HW-retry even if it is mandatory. Pali is solving this in his patch by 
doing the retry in the driver when CRSSVE is disabled. He is able to do 
this because he gets the information about CRS from another channel 
(another register).

- You are talking about wanting to implement an abstraction for what 
Pali's patch does in PCI core, so that if CRSSVE is not set and someone 
reads PCI_VENDOR_ID, you want to make PCI core doing this retry.

Am I correct here?

This could be done by changing Pali's patch so that instead of 
retrying, the pci_ops->read() method would instead return a value 
indicating that a retry should be done (this would be a new value, 
PCIBIOS_CRS), and then in access.c in the pci_bus_read_config_dword() 
(and pci_user_read_config_dword()), if the pci_ops->read() method 
returns this PCIBIOS_CRS value, the function will retry reading the 
register.

Is this what you mean?

It would make sense to do this, if there are other controllers where 
HW-retry does not work and instead informs about it via side-channel 
even when CRSSVE is disabled.

Marek

PS: Btw, looking at the code, why do we use these PCIBIOS_* macros? And 
then sometimes convert them to error codes with pcibios_err_to_errno()? 
Is this some legacy thing? Should this be converted to errno?

We need a way for those PCI controllers to communicate to SW that
they actually received a CRS completion (and that they don't retry
in HW).

By implementing the logic in the aardvark controller that platform
information is there so to the best of my knowledge this patch
is sound.

I assume that the HW retry is in the specs because there is no
architected way if CRS Software Visibility is not enabled/present to
report CRS completion in an architected PCI manner but I just
don't know the entire background behind this.

AFAICT this would be controller-dependent.  I think some controllers
have registers that control the number of retries, but of course
that's completely controller-dependent, too.

I assume an error bit would be set in the Status or Secondary Status
register when a PCIe transaction fails.  I'm not sure anybody *looks*
at those, though.

This still looks like a PCI controller band-aid for a device or driver
problem that will likely still exist on other platforms.

Yes that's true. I believe we can merge this patch (?) but it would
also be good if Pali/Marek have time to test on other HW and
maybe generalize the concept.

We are willing to try to implement a generic API if you propose should
such API look (at least some hints).

But let's merge this into aardvark for now, since the generic case will
take a non-trivial time to implement.

That's the whole point -- CRS SV *is* the generic way for controllers
to report CRS completions to software.  If the controller doesn't
support CRS SV, I don't think a generic API is possible.

Or maybe I don't understand the sort of generic API you have in mind.
What sort of information do you envision the API might provide?

Hello! I would like to remind this Marek's PS. Do you know why config
read and write functions return these PCIBIOS_* macros and not standard
linux errno codes?

I don't know.  The PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL..PCIBIOS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL codes
are actually still in the latest PCI Firmware Spec, r3.3, of
1/20/2021, sec 2.9, but are clearly x86-specific.

I think it would be nicer if their usage were confined to arch/x86,
but they've leaked out somewhat.
