Pull CXL (Compute Express Link) updates from Dan Williams:
"This development cycle extends the subsystem to discover CXL resources
throughout a CXL/PCIe switch topology and respond to hot add/remove
events anywhere in that topology.
This is more foundational infrastructure in preparation for dynamic
memory region provisioning support. Recall that CXL memory regions, as
the new "Theory of Operation" section of
Documentation/driver-api/cxl/memory-devices.rst describes, bring
storage volume striping semantics to memory.
The hot add/remove behavior is validated with extensions to the
cxl_test unit test environment and this test in the cxl-cli test
suite:
https://github.com/pmem/ndctl/blob/djbw/for-74/cxl/test/cxl-topology.sh
Summary:
- Add a driver for 'struct cxl_memdev' objects responsible for
CXL.mem operation as distinct from 'cxl_pci' mailbox operations.
Its primary responsibility is enumerating an endpoint 'struct
cxl_port' and all the 'struct cxl_port' instances between an
endpoint and the CXL platform root.
- Add a driver for 'struct cxl_port' objects responsible for
enumerating and operating all Host-managed Device Memory (HDM)
decoder resources between the platform-level CXL memory
description, all intervening host bridges / switches, and the HDM
resources in endpoints.
- Update the cxl_pci driver to validate CXL.mem operation precursors
to HDM decoder operation like ready-polling, and legacy CXL 1.1
DVSEC based CXL.mem configuration.
- Add basic lockdep coverage for usage of device_lock() on CXL
subsystem objects similar to what exists for LIBNVDIMM. Include a
compile-time switch for which subsystem to validate at run-time.
- Update cxl_test to emulate a one level switch topology.
- Document a "Theory of Operation" for the subsystem.
- Add 'numa_node' and 'serial' attributes to cxl_memdev sysfs
- Include miscellaneous fixes for spec / QEMU CXL emulation
compatibility and static analysis reports"

The need for runtime configuration +of the CXL.mem topology is also similar to RAID in that different environments +with the same hardware configuration may decide to assemble the topology in +contrasting ways. One may choose performance (RAID0) striping memory across +multiple Host Bridges and endpoints while another may opt for fault tolerance +and disable any striping in the CXL.mem topology. + +Platform firmware enumerates a menu of interleave options at the "CXL root port" +(Linux term for the top of the CXL decode topology).

A 'cxl_port' is a device that can decode CXL.mem to +its descendants. So "root" claims non-PCIe enumerable platform decode ranges and +decodes them to "ports", "ports" decode to "endpoints", and "endpoints" +represent the decode from SPA (System Physical Address) to DPA (Device Physical +Address). + +Continuing the RAID analogy, disks have both topology metadata and on device +metadata that determine RAID set assembly.
