Bug description:
[Impact]
on openstack rocky-bionic (with patch, see 1771662), xenial guests will fail
to launch as they drop to the busybox prompt after booting. The reason is that
the EFI firmware image switched to ACPI mode by default in bionic. We knew that
was happening, and backported some minimal ACPI support to keep xenial guests
booting (bug 1744754). But, now we're seeing guests panic when trying to
initialize PCI.
[Test Case]
Deploy rocky-bionic OpenStack and try to launch a xenial guest.
[Fix]
Backport ACPI/PCIe support for arm64 from upstream.
[ Regression Risk ]
TLDR: Definitely warrants some regression testing on armhf/arm64, but
regression risk seems low for other architectures. Here's a patch-by-patch risk
analysis:
> 0001-UBUNTU-Config-CONFIG_PCI_ECAM-y.patch
Enables code that will be added in the next patch.
> 0002-PCI-Provide-common-functions-for-ECAM-mapping.patch
Only adds new code w/ no callers yet
> 0003-PCI-generic-thunder-Use-generic-ECAM-API.patch
As noted in the commit message:
"The patch does not introduce any functional changes other than a very minor
one: with the new code, on 64-bit platforms, we do just a single ioremap for
the whole config space."
> 0004-PCI-of-Move-PCI-I-O-space-management-to-PCI-core-cod.patch
As noted, no functional change.
> 0005-PCI-Move-ecam.h-to-linux-include-pci-ecam.h.patch
As noted, no functional change.
> 0006-PCI-Add-parent-device-field-to-ECAM-struct-pci_confi.patch
This makes changes to the ecam code, but that was added in this series, so no
regression risk there. The pci-thunder-pem changes will be regression tested on
the hardware that uses that driver (Cavium ThunderX).
> 0007-PCI-Add-pci_unmap_iospace-to-unmap-I-O-resources.patch
Only adds new code, w/ no callers yet
> 0008-PCI-ACPI-Support-I-O-resources-when-parsing-host-bri.patch
Adds and calls a new function that is a no-op on !ARM (PCI_IOBASE is only
defined on ARM). Also adds a call to pci_unmap_iospace(), which was added in a
previous patch and is also a no-op on !ARM.
> 0009-UBUNTU-Config-CONFIG_ACPI_MCFG-y.patch
Enables code that will be added in the next patch.
> 0010-PCI-ACPI-Add-generic-MCFG-table-handling.patch
Adds parsing of a new ACPI table. A possible regression risk to platforms an
MCFG table that were working fine w/ 4.4 and there's a latent bug in this
parsing code.
> 0011-PCI-Refactor-pci_bus_assign_domain_nr-for-CONFIG_PCI.patch
As noted, no functional change intended.
> 0012-PCI-Factor-DT-specific-pci_bus_find_domain_nr-code-o.patch
Again, no functional change.
> 0013-ARM64-PCI-Add-acpi_pci_bus_find_domain_nr.patch
Only impacts ARM due to CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC guard
> 0014-ARM64-PCI-ACPI-support-for-legacy-IRQs-parsing-and-c.patch
arm64-specific PCI initialization code - mitigate risk by regression testing
on supported platforms (X-Gene, ThunderX).
> 0015-ARM64-PCI-Support-ACPI-based-PCI-host-controller.patch
Adds new code for arm64-ACPI support. We didn't previously support these
devices, so regression risk is negligible.
