Hi all,

starting with qemu v6.0, some of my aarch64 efi boot tests no longer
work. Analysis shows that PCI devices with IO ports do not instantiate
in qemu v6.0 (or v6.1-rc0) when booting through efi. The problem affects
(at least) ne2k_pci, tulip, dc390, and am53c974. The problem only
affects
aarch64, not x86/x86_64.

I bisected the problem to commit 0cf8882fd0 ("acpi/gpex: Inform os to
keep firmware resource map"). Since this commit, PCI device BAR
allocation has changed. Taking tulip as example, the kernel reports
the following PCI bar assignments when running qemu v5.2.

[    3.921801] pci 0000:00:01.0: [1011:0019] type 00 class 0x020000
[    3.922207] pci 0000:00:01.0: reg 0x10: [io  0x0000-0x007f]
[    3.922505] pci 0000:00:01.0: reg 0x14: [mem 0x10000000-0x1000007f]

IIUC, these lines are read back from the BARs

[    3.927111] pci 0000:00:01.0: BAR 0: assigned [io  0x1000-0x107f]
[    3.927455] pci 0000:00:01.0: BAR 1: assigned [mem
0x10000000-0x1000007f]


... and this is the assignment created by the kernel.

With qemu v6.0, the assignment is reported as follows.

[    3.922887] pci 0000:00:01.0: [1011:0019] type 00 class 0x020000
[    3.923278] pci 0000:00:01.0: reg 0x10: [io  0x0000-0x007f]
[    3.923451] pci 0000:00:01.0: reg 0x14: [mem 0x10000000-0x1000007f]

The problem here is that Linux, for legacy reasons, does not support
I/O ports <= 0x1000 on PCI, so the I/O assignment created by EFI is
rejected.

This might make sense on x86, where legacy I/O ports may exist, but on
other architectures, this makes no sense.

I guess this is the "#define PCIBIOS_MIN_IO 0x1000" in
arm64/include/asm/pci.h.  From a PCI point of view, I'm not opposed to
changing that to 0, as it is on csky, riscv, sh, sparc, um.  But it's
really an arch question, so the arm64 folks would have to weigh in.

But I don't think that would fix this.  PCIBIOS_MIN_IO is mainly used
when we assign or reassign resources to a BAR, and if firmware tells
us to preserve the assignments done by firmware, Linux shouldn't be
doing any assignment or reassignment.

Linux received 00:01.0 BAR 0 as [io 0x0000-0x007f], and Guenter didn't
report any reassignment, so I assume Linux saw the
DSM_PCI_PRESERVE_BOOT_CONFIG [1] and didn't change anything.

Could this be due to drivers assuming that an I/O BAR of 0 is invalid?
I see that at least ne2k_pci_init_one() [2] seems to assume that.  And

Correct, and ne2k_pci is known to already fail on architectures where the
IO address range starts at 0, such as riscv. Not that it helps to fix the
code - doing so only results in a crash elsewhere when running a riscv
emulation (when executing outsl, suggesting that there may be a problem
with that emulation or its use). But that is a different problem.

tulip_init_one() [3] and pci_esp_probe_one() (am53c974.c, [4]) use
pci_iomap() [5], which fails if the resource starts at 0.

So pci_iomap() is probably already broken on the arches above that
allow I/O BARs to be zero.  Maybe pci_iomap() should only fail on
"!start" for *memory* BARs, e.g.,

diff --git a/lib/pci_iomap.c b/lib/pci_iomap.c
index 2d3eb1cb73b8..77455e702a3e 100644
--- a/lib/pci_iomap.c
+++ b/lib/pci_iomap.c
@@ -34,7 +34,9 @@ void __iomem *pci_iomap_range(struct pci_dev *dev,
        resource_size_t len = pci_resource_len(dev, bar);
        unsigned long flags = pci_resource_flags(dev, bar);
- if (len <= offset || !start)
+       if (flags & IORESOURCE_MEM && !start)
+               return NULL;

I am far out of my league here, but what is the purpose of the !start
check given the PCIBIOS_MIN_MEM define which can also be 0 ? Shouldn't
the check be against PCIBIOS_MIN_MEM and PCIBIOS_MIN_IO ?

But, anyway, the above change fixes the problem for 'tulip', though
obviously not for 'ne2k_pci'. 'ne2k_pci' starts working if I remove
the "!ioaddr" check in ne2k_pci_init_one().

Thanks,
Guenter

and the controller does not instantiate. The problem disapears after
reverting commit 0cf8882fd0.

Attached is a summary of test runs with various devices and qemu v5.2
as well as qemu v6.0, and the command line I use for efi boots.

Did commit 0cf8882fd0 introduce a bug, do I now need need some different
command line to instantiate PCI devices with io ports, or are such
devices
simply no longer supported if the system is booted with efi support ?

Thanks,
Guenter


So that commit basically just says don't ignore what efi did.

The issue's thus likely efi.


I don't see the problem with efi boots on x86 and x86_64.
Any idea why that might be the case ?

Thanks,
Guenter

Cc the maintainer. Philippe can you comment pls?

I'll have a look. Cc'ing Ard for EDK2/Aarch64.

So a potential workaround would be to use a different I/O resource
window for ArmVirtPkg, that starts at 0x1000. But I would prefer to
fix Linux instead.
