PCI NTB Function
=================

:Author: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>

PCI Non-Transparent Bridges (NTB) allow two host systems to communicate
with each other by exposing each host as a device to the other host.
NTBs typically support the ability to generate interrupts on the remote
machine, expose memory ranges as BARs, and perform DMA.  They also support
scratchpads, which are areas of memory within the NTB that are accessible
from both machines.

PCI NTB Function allows two different systems (or hosts) to communicate
with each other by configuring the endpoint instances in such a way that
transactions from one system are routed to the other system.

In the below diagram, PCI NTB function configures the SoC with multiple
PCI Endpoint (EP) instances in such a way that transactions from one EP
controller are routed to the other EP controller. Once PCI NTB function
configures the SoC with multiple EP instances, HOST1 and HOST2 can
communicate with each other using SoC as a bridge.

Constructs used for Implementing NTB
====================================

	1) Config Region
	2) Self Scratchpad Registers
	3) Peer Scratchpad Registers
	4) Doorbell (DB) Registers
	5) Memory Window (MW)


Config Region:
--------------

Config Region is a construct that is specific to NTB implemented using NTB
Endpoint Function Driver. The host and endpoint side NTB function driver will
exchange information with each other using this region. Config Region has
Control/Status Registers for configuring the Endpoint Controller. Host can
write into this region for configuring the outbound Address Translation Unit
(ATU) and to indicate the link status. Endpoint can indicate the status of
commands issued by host in this region. Endpoint can also indicate the
scratchpad offset and number of memory windows to the host using this region.

The format of Config Region is given below. All the fields here are 32 bits.

  COMMAND:

	NTB function supports three commands:

	  CMD_CONFIGURE_DOORBELL (0x1): Command to configure doorbell. Before
	invoking this command, the host should allocate and initialize
	MSI/MSI-X vectors (i.e., initialize the MSI/MSI-X Capability in the
	Endpoint). The endpoint on receiving this command will configure
	the outbound ATU such that transactions to Doorbell BAR will be routed
	to the MSI/MSI-X address programmed by the host. The ARGUMENT
	register should be populated with number of DBs to configure (in the
	lower 16 bits) and if MSI or MSI-X should be configured (BIT 16).

	  CMD_CONFIGURE_MW (0x2): Command to configure memory window (MW). The
	host invokes this command after allocating a buffer that can be
	accessed by remote host. The allocated address should be programmed
	in the ADDRESS register (64 bit), the size should be programmed in
	the SIZE register and the memory window index should be programmed
	in the ARGUMENT register. The endpoint on receiving this command
	will configure the outbound ATU such that transactions to MW BAR
	are routed to the address provided by the host.

	  CMD_LINK_UP (0x3): Command to indicate an NTB application is
	bound to the EP device on the host side. Once the endpoint
	receives this command from both the hosts, the endpoint will
	raise a LINK_UP event to both the hosts to indicate the host
	NTB applications can start communicating with each other.

  ARGUMENT:

	The value of this register is based on the commands issued in
	command register. See COMMAND section for more information.

  TOPOLOGY:

	Set to NTB_TOPO_B2B_USD for Primary interface
	Set to NTB_TOPO_B2B_DSD for Secondary interface

  ADDRESS/SIZE:

	Address and Size to be used while configuring the memory window.
	See "CMD_CONFIGURE_MW" for more info.

  MEMORY WINDOW1 OFFSET:

	Memory Window 1 and Doorbell registers are packed together in the
	same BAR. The initial portion of the region will have doorbell
	registers and the latter portion of the region is for memory window 1.
	This register will specify the offset of the memory window 1.

  NO OF MEMORY WINDOW:

	Specifies the number of memory windows supported by the NTB device.

  SPAD OFFSET:

	Self scratchpad region and config region are packed together in the
	same BAR. The initial portion of the region will have config region
	and the latter portion of the region is for self scratchpad. This
	register will specify the offset of the self scratchpad registers.

  SPAD COUNT:

	Specifies the number of scratchpad registers supported by the NTB
	device.

  DB ENTRY SIZE:

	Used to determine the offset within the DB BAR that should be written
	in order to raise doorbell. EPF NTB can use either MSI or MSI-X to
	ring doorbell (MSI-X support will be added later). MSI uses same
	address for all the interrupts and MSI-X can provide different
	addresses for different interrupts. The MSI/MSI-X address is provided
	by the host and the address it gives is based on the MSI/MSI-X
	implementation supported by the host. For instance, ARM platform
	using GIC ITS will have the same MSI-X address for all the interrupts.
	In order to support all the combinations and use the same mechanism
	for both MSI and MSI-X, EPF NTB allocates a separate region in the
	Outbound Address Space for each of the interrupts. This region will
	be mapped to the MSI/MSI-X address provided by the host. If a host
	provides the same address for all the interrupts, all the regions
	will be translated to the same address. If a host provides different
	addresses, the regions will be translated to different addresses. This
	will ensure there is no difference while raising the doorbell.

  DB DATA:

	EPF NTB supports 32 interrupts, so there are 32 DB DATA registers.
	This holds the MSI/MSI-X data that has to be written to MSI address
	for raising doorbell interrupt. This will be populated by EPF NTB
	while invoking CMD_CONFIGURE_DOORBELL.

Scratchpad Registers:
---------------------

  Each host has its own register space allocated in the memory of NTB endpoint
  controller. They are both readable and writable from both sides of the bridge.
  They are used by applications built over NTB and can be used to pass control
  and status information between both sides of a device.

  Scratchpad registers has 2 parts
	1) Self Scratchpad: Host's own register space
	2) Peer Scratchpad: Remote host's register space.

Doorbell Registers:
-------------------

  Doorbell Registers are used by the hosts to interrupt each other.

Memory Window:
--------------

  Actual transfer of data between the two hosts will happen using the
  memory window.

Modeling Constructs:
====================

There are 5 or more distinct regions (config, self scratchpad, peer
scratchpad, doorbell, one or more memory windows) to be modeled to achieve
NTB functionality. At least one memory window is required while more than
one is permitted. All these regions should be mapped to BARs for hosts to
access these regions.

If one 32-bit BAR is allocated for each of these regions, the scheme would
look like this:

======  ===============
BAR NO  CONSTRUCTS USED
======  ===============
BAR0    Config Region
BAR1    Self Scratchpad
BAR2    Peer Scratchpad
BAR3    Doorbell
BAR4    Memory Window 1
BAR5    Memory Window 2
======  ===============

However if we allocate a separate BAR for each of the regions, there would not
be enough BARs for all the regions in a platform that supports only 64-bit
BARs.

In order to be supported by most of the platforms, the regions should be
packed and mapped to BARs in a way that provides NTB functionality and
also makes sure the host doesn't access any region that it is not supposed
to.

The following scheme is used in EPF NTB Function:

======  ===============================
BAR NO  CONSTRUCTS USED
======  ===============================
BAR0    Config Region + Self Scratchpad
BAR1    Peer Scratchpad
BAR2    Doorbell + Memory Window 1
BAR3    Memory Window 2
BAR4    Memory Window 3
BAR5    Memory Window 4
======  ===============================

With this scheme, for the basic NTB functionality 3 BARs should be sufficient.

Above diagram shows Config region + Scratchpad region for HOST1 (connected to
EP controller 1) allocated in local memory. The HOST1 can access the config
region and scratchpad region (self scratchpad) using BAR0 of EP controller 1.
The peer host (HOST2 connected to EP controller 2) can also access this
scratchpad region (peer scratchpad) using BAR1 of EP controller 2. This
diagram shows the case where Config region and Scratchpad regions are allocated
for HOST1, however the same is applicable for HOST2.

Above diagram shows how the doorbell and memory window 1 is mapped so that
HOST1 can raise doorbell interrupt on HOST2 and also how HOST1 can access
buffers exposed by HOST2 using memory window1 (MW1). Here doorbell and
memory window 1 regions are allocated in EP controller 2 outbound (OB) address
space. Allocating and configuring BARs for doorbell and memory window1
is done during the initialization phase of NTB endpoint function driver.
Mapping from EP controller 2 OB space to PCI address space is done when HOST2
sends CMD_CONFIGURE_MW/CMD_CONFIGURE_DOORBELL.

Modeling Optional Memory Windows:
---------------------------------

This is modeled the same was as MW1 but each of the additional memory windows
is mapped to separate BARs.

PCI Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB) Endpoint Function (EPF) User Guide
===================================================================

:Author: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>

This document is a guide to help users use pci-epf-ntb function driver
and ntb_hw_epf host driver for NTB functionality. The list of steps to
be followed in the host side and EP side is given below. For the hardware
configuration and internals of NTB using configurable endpoints see
Documentation/PCI/endpoint/pci-ntb-function.rst

Endpoint Device
===============

Endpoint Controller Devices
---------------------------

For implementing NTB functionality at least two endpoint controller devices
are required.

To find the list of endpoint controller devices in the system::

	# ls /sys/class/pci_epc/
	2900000.pcie-ep  2910000.pcie-ep

If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::

	# ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/controllers
	2900000.pcie-ep  2910000.pcie-ep


Endpoint Function Drivers
-------------------------

To find the list of endpoint function drivers in the system::

	# ls /sys/bus/pci-epf/drivers
	pci_epf_ntb   pci_epf_ntb

If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::

	# ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/functions
	pci_epf_ntb   pci_epf_ntb


Creating pci-epf-ntb Device
----------------------------

PCI endpoint function device can be created using the configfs. To create
pci-epf-ntb device, the following commands can be used::

	# mount -t configfs none /sys/kernel/config
	# cd /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/
	# mkdir functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1

The "mkdir func1" above creates the pci-epf-ntb function device that will
be probed by pci_epf_ntb driver.

The PCI endpoint framework populates the directory with the following
configurable fields::

	# ls functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1
	baseclass_code    deviceid          msi_interrupts    pci-epf-ntb.0
	progif_code       secondary         subsys_id         vendorid
	cache_line_size   interrupt_pin     msix_interrupts   primary
	revid             subclass_code     subsys_vendor_id

The PCI endpoint function driver populates these entries with default values
when the device is bound to the driver. The pci-epf-ntb driver populates
vendorid with 0xffff and interrupt_pin with 0x0001::

	# cat functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/vendorid
	0xffff
	# cat functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/interrupt_pin
	0x0001


Configuring pci-epf-ntb Device
-------------------------------

The user can configure the pci-epf-ntb device using its configfs entry. In order
to change the vendorid and the deviceid, the following
commands can be used::

	# echo 0x104c > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/vendorid
	# echo 0xb00d > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/deviceid

In order to configure NTB specific attributes, a new sub-directory to func1
should be created::

	# mkdir functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/

The NTB function driver will populate this directory with various attributes
that can be configured by the user::

	# ls functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/
	db_count    mw1         mw2         mw3         mw4         num_mws
	spad_count

A sample configuration for NTB function is given below::

	# echo 4 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/db_count
	# echo 128 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/spad_count
	# echo 2 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/num_mws
	# echo 0x100000 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/mw1
	# echo 0x100000 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/mw2

Binding pci-epf-ntb Device to EP Controller
--------------------------------------------

NTB function device should be attached to two PCI endpoint controllers
connected to the two hosts. Use the 'primary' and 'secondary' entries
inside NTB function device to attach one PCI endpoint controller to
primary interface and the other PCI endpoint controller to the secondary
interface::

	# ln -s controllers/2900000.pcie-ep/ functions/pci-epf-ntb/func1/primary
	# ln -s controllers/2910000.pcie-ep/ functions/pci-epf-ntb/func1/secondary

Once the above step is completed, both the PCI endpoint controllers are ready to
establish a link with the host.


Start the Link
--------------

In order for the endpoint device to establish a link with the host, the _start_
field should be populated with '1'. For NTB, both the PCI endpoint controllers
should establish link with the host::

	# echo 1 > controllers/2900000.pcie-ep/start
	# echo 1 > controllers/2910000.pcie-ep/start
