Compile-testing drivers that require access to a firmware layer
fails when that firmware symbol is unavailable. This happened
twice this week:

 - My proposed to change to rework the QCOM_SCM firmware symbol
   broke on ppc64 and others.

 - The cs_dsp firmware patch added device specific firmware loader

cxl/mem: Introduce a driver for CXL-2.0-Type-3 endpoints 2021-02-17T04:36:38+00:00 Dan Williams dan.j.williams@intel.com 2021-02-17T04:09:50+00:00 4cdadfd5e0a70017fec735b7b6d7f2f731842dc6 The CXL.mem protocol allows a device to act as a provider of "System RAM" and/or "Persistent Memory" that is fully coherent as if the memory was attached to the typical CPU memory controller. With the CXL-2.0 specification a PCI endpoint can implement a "Type-3" device interface and give the operating system control over "Host Managed Device Memory". See section 2.3 Type 3 CXL Device. The memory range exported by the device may optionally be described by the platform firmware memory map, or by infrastructure like LIBNVDIMM to provision persistent memory capacity from one, or more, CXL.mem devices. A pre-requisite for Linux-managed memory-capacity provisioning is this cxl_mem driver that can speak the mailbox protocol defined in section 8.2.8.4 Mailbox Registers. For now just land the initial driver boiler-plate and Documentation/ infrastructure.
