Cavium devices matching this quirk do not perform
peer-to-peer with other functions, allowing masking out
these bits as if they were unimplemented in the ACS capability.

Apologies for not catching this, but what sort of crystal ball do you
have that can predict not only current devices, but future devices will
not support peer-to-peer features?  Is there an internal design
guidelines reference specification for Cavium that we can realistically
expect this to remain consistent, or is this just an attempt to never
think about ACS again at the customer's peril?  What about the existing
non-ThunderX products with Cavium vendor ID, does this really apply to
those?  I would strongly suggest taking the device ID into account.
See examples like the pci_quirk_intel_pch_acs quirk where the initial
filter is PCI_ANY_ID, but specific device types and ranges of device
IDs are identified by the function for evaluation.  This seems reckless
to me and I'd advise that it be reverted.  Thanks,

Alex

I'd be happy to revert this, but it would be easier if somebody sent a
patch and a changelog.

I agree that it should be reverted.

I was hoping that Manish or Tirumalesh would fix this properly by only 
activating the quirk on the faulty hardware, but such a fix has never 
appeared.

    I was hoping that Manish or Tirumalesh would fix this properly by only 
    activating the quirk on the faulty hardware, but such a fix has never 
    appeared.

This was supposed to be true for all Cavium chips. We got such answer from Hardware architects, but it might change in the future. 
I will be happy to replace this with DEVICE_ID.
Manish,
Could you please take this u, if not I will send a patch to do this.

Tirumalesh.

Perhaps add a check here for dev->device and/or dev->subsystem_device to 
see if we need the workaround.  There may be many that match, so ...

.. Leaving PCI_ANY_ID here may keep the table more manageable.

I think several device ids or subsystem_device may be involved.

Just a thought, even if Cavium considers to support ACS for future devices,
wouldn't it be better to add exception list inside the quirk on a need basis
rather than adding big list of devices that don't. Especially when currently
almost all Cavium PCI devices don't support ACS.

Thanks,
Sunil.

The same argument can be made the other way, which is the more
concerning problem.  What if Cavium releases a device that does not
support ACS nor has ACS equivalent isolation?  This quirk would assume
isolation exists.  Now think about the compatibility problem of trying
to negate this quirk for that device on any kernel that has shipped
with this open-ended quirk.  What's the support situation if a user
relies on that isolation that maybe doesn't exist?  Any solution that
assumes unknown future devices have isolation is dangerous.  Perhaps
it's justifiable if the company has strong internal design guidelines
about this sort of thing, but even those get lost or change over time
without necessarily evaluating all the implications.  IMO, the only
workable solution is to white-list *only* the devices where we know ACS
equivalent isolation is present.  We're still waiting on Cavium's
patch to make that happen.  Thanks,

Alex
