During initial device probe, the PCI DOE busy bit for some CXL
devices may be left set for a longer period than expected by the
current driver logic. Despite local comments stating DOE Busy is
unlikely to be detected, it appears commonly specifically during
boot when CXL devices are being probed.

This was observed on a single socket AMD platform with 2 CXL memory
expanders attached to the single socket. It was not the case that
concurrent accesses were being made, as validated by monitoring
mailbox commands on the device side.

This behavior has been observed with multiple CXL memory expanders
from different vendors - so it appears unrelated to the model.

In all observed tests, only a small period of the retry window is
actually used - typically only a handful of loop iterations.

Polling on the PCI DOE Busy Bit for (at max) one PCI DOE timeout
interval (1 second), resolves this issues cleanly.

Per PCIe r6.2 sec 6.30.3, the DOE Busy Bit being cleared does not
raise an interrupt, so polling is the best option in this scenario.

Subsqeuent code in doe_statemachine_work and abort paths also wait
for up to 1 PCI DOE timeout interval, so this order of (potential)
additional delay is presumed acceptable.

I provisionally applied this to pci/doe for v6.13 with Lukas and
Jonathan's reviewed-by.  

Can we include a sample of any dmesg logging or other errors users
would see because of this problem?  I'll update the commit log with
any of this information to help users connect an issue with this fix.

The only indication in dmesg you will see is a line like

[   24.542625] endpoint6: DOE failed -EBUSY

produced by cxl_cdat_get_length or cxl_cdat_read_table


Do you want an updated patch with the nits fixed?

You need to keep an eye on pci.git when contributing to the
PCI subsystem... ;)

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pci/pci.git

Your patch is on the "doe" topic branch, with all nits already
addressed by Bjorn.  So you don't need to do anything. :)

Thanks,

Lukas

No need, I fixed the nits and added the dmesg line to the commit log.
