Currently PCI hotplug works on top of resources which are usually reserved
not by the kernel, but by BIOS, bootloader, firmware, etc. These resources
are gaps in the address space where BARs of new devices may fit, and extra
bus number per port, so bridges can be hot-added. This series aim the BARs
problem: it shows the kernel how to redistribute them on the run, so the
hotplug becomes predictable and cross-platform. A follow-up patchset will
propose a solution for bus numbers.

To arrange a space for BARs of new hotplugged devices, the kernel now pause
the drivers of working PCI devices and reshuffle the assigned BARs by the
same procedure as during the system boot. When a driver is un-paused by the
kernel, it should ioremap() the new addresses of its BARs.

Drivers indicate their support of the feature by implementing the new hooks
.rescan_prepare() and .rescan_done() in the struct pci_driver. If a driver
doesn't yet support the feature, BARs of its devices will be considered as
immovable and handled in the same way as resources with the PCI_FIXED flag:
they are guaranteed to remain untouched.

Tested on a number x86_64 machines with "pci=pcie_bus_peer2peer" command
line argument to specify a policy for Maximum Payload Size PCIe setting.

Also tested on a POWER8 PowerNV+OPAL+PHB3 ppc64le machine, but with extra
patches which are to be sent upstream after the PCIPOCALYPSE patchset is
merged.

First two patches of this series are bugfixes, not related directly to the
movable BARs feature.

Patches 03-14/26 implement the essentials of the feature.

Patch 15/26 enables the feature by default.

Patches 16-26/26 are performance improvements for hotplug.

This patchset is a part of our work on adding support for hotplugging
chains of chassis full of other bridges, NVME drives, SAS HBAs, GPUs, etc.
without special requirements such as Hot-Plug Controller, reservation of
bus numbers or memory regions by firmware, etc.

Changes since v6:
 - Added a fix for hotplug on AMD Epyc + Supermicro H11SSL-i by ignoring
   PCIBIOS_MIN_MEM;
 - Fixed a workaround which marks VGA BARs as immovables;
 - Fixed misleading "can't claim BAR ... no compatible bridge window" error
   messages;
 - Refactored the code, reduced the amount of patches;
 - Exclude PowerPC-specific arch patches, they will be sent separately;
 - Disabled for PowerNV by default - waiting for the PCIPOCALYPSE patchset.
 - Fixed reports from the kbuild test robot.

Changes since v5:
 - Simplified the disable flag, now it is "pci=no_movable_buses";
 - More deliberate marking the BARs as immovable;
 - Mark as immovable BARs which are used by unbound drivers;
 - Ignoring BAR assignment by non-kernel program components, so the kernel
   is able now to distribute BARs in optimal and predictable way;
 - Move here PowerNV-specific patches from the older "powerpc/powernv/pci:
   Make hotplug self-sufficient, independent of FW and DT" series;
 - Fix EEH cache rebuilding and PE allocation for PowerNV during rescan.

Changes since v4:
 - Feature is enabled by default (turned on by one of the latest patches);
 - Add pci_dev_movable_bars_supported(dev) instead of marking the immovable
   BARs with the IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED flag;
 - Set up PCIe bridges during rescan via sysfs, so MPS settings are now
   configured not only during system boot or pcihp events;
 - Allow movement of switch's BARs if claimed by portdrv;
 - Update EEH address caches after rescan for powerpc;
 - Don't disable completely hot-added devices which can't have BARs being
   fit - just disable their BARs, so they are still visible in lspci etc;
 - Clearer names: fixed_range_hard -> immovable_range, fixed_range_soft ->
   realloc_range;
 - Drop the patch for pci_restore_config_space() - fixed by properly using
   the runtime PM.

Changes since v3:
 - Rebased to the upstream, so the patches apply cleanly again.

Changes since v2:
 - Fixed double-assignment of bridge windows;
 - Fixed assignment of fixed prefetched resources;
 - Fixed releasing of fixed resources;
 - Fixed a debug message;
 - Removed auto-enabling the movable BARs for x86 - let's rely on the
   "pcie_movable_bars=force" option for now;
 - Reordered the patches - bugfixes first.

Changes since v1:
 - Add a "pcie_movable_bars={ off | force }" command line argument;
 - Handle the IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED flag properly;
 - Don't move BARs of devices which don't support the feature;
 - Guarantee that new hotplugged devices will not steal memory from working
   devices by ignoring the failing new devices with the new PCI_DEV_IGNORE
   flag;
 - Add rescan_prepare()+rescan_done() to the struct pci_driver instead of
   using the reset_prepare()+reset_done() from struct pci_error_handlers;
 - Add a bugfix of a race condition;
 - Fixed hotplug in a non-pre-enabled (by BIOS/firmware) bridge;
 - Fix the compatibility of the feature with pm_runtime and D3-state;
 - Hotplug events from pciehp also can move BARs;
 - Add support of the feature to the NVME driver.

What is the significance of "pci=pcie_bus_peer2peer"?  On the face of
it, that doesn't sound related to BAR assignment.

"PCIPOCALYPSE" is meaningless to me.  Not sure if it's relevant for me
or not, but if you mention it, it'd be nice to have some more context.

Thanks for reposting these.  This series was next on my list to look
at, so I'm glad for an updated version.

Probably needs some text in Documentation/PCI/pci.rst as well about
what drivers need to do to support this.  We haven't been very good
about documenting all the hooks in struct pci_driver, but this would
be a good chance to start.

It's a big RFC series I posted to linuxppc-dev late last year that
removes most of the pseries PCI baggage that got carried over to
PowerNV. It also re-works EEH / DMA setup to be done on a per-device
rather than per-bridge basis and those changes are blocking Sergei's.
I didn't think it would be interesting to a general audience in it's
RFC state so I didn't CC it to linux-pci, but it's here if you want to
have a look: https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/20191120012859.23300-1-oohall@gmail.com/
