[PATCH v7 00/12] Introduce eSPI support
Posted by Leonid Komarianskyi 1 week, 2 days ago
Hello everyone!

V6 contains an issue for debug builds with CONFIG_GICV3_ESPI=n due to a
mistake in the ASSERT() condition in the is_espi() function. This patch
series fixes the issue and also includes minor fixes according to the
review of V6.

Summarized description:
This patch series adds support for the extended shared peripheral
interrupt (eSPI) range (INTIDs 4096-5119 [2](ranges of INTIDs)) for Xen
and guest domains. The implementation uses a generic approach to handle
eSPIs, similar to regular SPIs, while maintaining compatibility with the
existing SPI range. Functionality remains unchanged for setups that do
not require eSPIs.

The series includes:
1) General refactoring of common IRQ operations with GIC registers to
improve code readability, simplify further maintenance and prepare the
key functions for eSPI implementation.
2) Introducing a new Kconfig option (default n) to enable or disable
eSPI support. Disabling this option prevents unnecessary resource
allocation for setups that do not require eSPIs.
3) Adding additional resources to store required information and operate
with up to 1024 interrupts from eSPI range.
4) Adjusting assertions and checks to pass verification for INTIDs in
the eSPI range.
5) Configuration of eSPI-specific registers during GIC initialization
for systems with GICv3.1+ hardware.
6) Enables eSPI MMIO emulation for vGIC, allowing guest domains to
access and operate within the eSPI's INTIDs.
7) Updating documentation and CHANGELOG to reflect the changes made for eSPI
support.

Also, to simplify reviewing, please find below link to unsquashed patches, that
are on top of every patch, that is changed in the series, compared to V6:

Re: [PATCH v7 00/12] Introduce eSPI support
Posted by Stefano Stabellini 1 week, 1 day ago
Hi Leonid,

I was about to commit this but unfortunately it is introducing MISRA
regressions. See:
https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/sstabellini/xen/-/tree/ppp6?ref_type=heads

https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/sstabellini/xen/-/jobs/11265005118

Compared this result:
https://eclair-analysis-logs.xenproject.org/fs/var/local/eclair/xen-project.ecdf/xen-project/people/sstabellini/xen/ECLAIR_normal/ppp6/ARM64/11265005118/PROJECT.ecd;/by_service.html#service&kind

Against upstream staging:
https://eclair-analysis-logs.xenproject.org/fs/space/XEN.ecdf/xen-project/hardware/xen/ECLAIR_normal/staging/ARM64/11264772605/PROJECT.ecd;/by_service.html#service&kind

It is introducing a couple of easy-to-fix 16.3 issues and also a couple
of new 16.4 issues. They should be all easy to fix. It is also
introducing three new 13.2 issues and one 18.1 but I haven't looked
closely into those. Please address them.


Oleksii,

Technically, the series is fully acked and ready to be committed. From a
risk perspective, I would be comfortable committing it now with the
outstanding MISRA regressions, leaving Leonid to fix them over the next
few days. However, I have not done so because it would make it harder to
spot the MISRA regressions due to the way the scanner works (it
compares against the previous version).

I suggest we allow this series to be committed in the next couple of
days, once Leonid addresses the regressions, even though it would
technically be past the feature freeze.

Cheers,

Stefano

P.S.

Leonid, you might want to check my commits because I fixed a couple of
things on commit, in addition to adding the various acked-by tags.

If there is no any strong objects, it sounds good to me to give couple
of days to fix the regressions and then commit this patch series.

Regarding the MISRA 16.3/16.4 violations and 13.2 cautions - there are
no questions from my side. I have fixed them and will send the updated
V8 (with typo fixes, added acked/reviewed-by tags, etc.). However, I
would like to clarify regarding the MISRA 18.1 caution regression and
review process rules:

MISRA 18.1 caution:

xen/arch/arm/irq.c:105.13-105.39: [8] access of 'irq_desc' at an
overflowing index, while it holds only 992 'struct irq_desc' elements

Actually, there is no new real issue here, because the mainline
irq_desc() currently does not have upper limit checks for IRQs:

struct irq_desc *__irq_to_desc(unsigned int irq)
{
     if ( irq < NR_LOCAL_IRQS )
         return &this_cpu(local_irq_desc)[irq];

     return &irq_desc[irq-NR_LOCAL_IRQS];
}

... as a result Eclair does not spot any issues in this code according
to the staging report. As I understand, it triggers on patches with eSPI
because I introduced new checks for the eSPI INTID range, which should
not be used without CONFIG_GICV3_ESPI=y.

Also, a similar issue with invalid INTIDs was discussed in the thread:

https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2025-09/msg00401.html

Long story short: the mainline Xen currently allows defining invalid
INTIDs in the Xen DTS and crashes in __irq_to_desc() when attempting to
operate on an invalid interrupt number.

I have prepared a fix for the 18.1 caution, but I am not sure whether it
is worth applying just to address the Eclair report (if it is not critical):
https://github.com/LKomaryanskiy/xen/commit/af5d9a483302f7bcfaadbefb85f5e4ee35f6cb3b

So, could you please clarify which option would be better:
1) Leave the code as it is for now, accepting the MISRA caution from
Eclair and fix the issue later in the context of addressing Xen crashing
with invalid INTIDs and implementing dynamic allocation of irq_desc_t array;
2) Apply the fix now (while also planning to address the invalid INTID
issue in the future)


Regarding the review process:
Should I remove the 'reviewed-by' tags from the patches where I added
missing breaks (with the corresponding code updates) or introduced
variables to fix MISRA issues? I am asking because these are code
changes, and I am not sure if I should leave the RB tags in this case.

I am happy to apply the fix now as part of the series
