Given reading this value and getting a big number gives the implication that the device is meant to be really slow to initialize, I'd expect that to push vendors a little in the directly of putting realistic values in). Maybe we should print the value in the log to make them look silly ;) Jonathan > > > > + * prior to the ECN, wait the max amount of time no matter what the > > > + * device says. > > > + */ > > > + timeout = jiffies + 256 * HZ; > > > + > > > + rc = check_device_status(cxlds); > > > + if (rc) > > > + return rc; > > > + > > > + do { > > > + md_status = readq(cxlds->regs.memdev + CXLMDEV_STATUS_OFFSET); > > > + if (md_status & CXLMDEV_MBOX_IF_READY) > > > + break; > > > + if (msleep_interruptible(100)) > > > + break; > > > + } while (!time_after(jiffies, timeout)); > > > + > > > + /* It's assumed that once the interface is ready, it will remain ready. */ > > > + if (!(md_status & CXLMDEV_MBOX_IF_READY)) > > > + return -EIO; > > > > > > cxlds->mbox_send = cxl_pci_mbox_send; > > > cxlds->payload_size = > >

"device not ready after waiting %d seconds, continuing to wait up to %d seconds" It's also not clear to me that the Linux default timeout should be so generous at 256 seconds. It might be suitable to just complain about devices that are taking more than 60 seconds to initialize with an option to override that timeout for odd outliers. Otherwise encourage hardware implementations to beat the Linux timeout value to get support out of the box. I notice that not even libata waits more than a minute for a given device to finish post-reset shenanigans, so might as well set 60 seconds as what the driver will tolerate out of the box.

In my opinion if we're going to pick a limit, might as well tie it to a spec definition rather than 60s.. Perhaps 60s has some relevance I'm unaware of, but it seems equally arbitrary to me.

Perhaps 60s has some relevance I'm unaware of, but > it seems equally arbitrary to me. 4 minutes just seems an unreasonable amount of time to wait to make a decision that something is likely broken. If the industry actually builds devices that nominally take multiple minutes to boot it's already going to be in the realm of something custom in terms of application expectations for when the server is ready. I'll buy you a beverage of your choice if someone actually builds such a thing.

The original driver implementation used the doorbell timeout for the Mailbox Interface Ready bit to piggy back off of, since the latter doesn't have a defined timeout. This functionality, introduced in 8adaf747c9f0 ("cxl/mem: Find device capabilities"), can now be improved since a timeout has been defined with an ECN to the 2.0 spec. While devices implemented prior to the ECN could have an arbitrarily long wait and still be within spec, the max ECN value (256s) is chosen as the default for all devices. All vendors in the consortium agreed to this amount and so it is reasonable to assume no devices made will exceed this amount.
