+CXL Access Coordinates Computation
+==================================
+
+Shared Upstream Link Calculation
+================================
+For certain CXL region construction with endpoints behind CXL switches (SW) or
+Root Ports (RP), there is the possibility of the total bandwidth for all
+the endpoints behind a switch being more than the switch upstream link.
+A similar situation can occur within the host, upstream of the root ports.
+The CXL driver performs an additional pass after all the targets have
+arrived for a region in order to recalculate the bandwidths with possible
+upstream link being a limiting factor in mind.
+
+The algorithm assumes the configuration is a symmetric topology as that
+maximizes performance. When asymmetric topology is detected, the calculation
+is aborted. An asymmetric topology is detected during topology walk where the
+number of RPs detected as a grandparent is not equal to the number of devices
+iterated in the same iteration loop. The assumption is made that subtle
+asymmetry in properties does not happen and all paths to EPs are equal.
+
+There can be multiple switches under an RP. There can be multiple RPs under
+a CXL Host Bridge (HB). There can be multiple HBs under a CXL Fixed Memory
+Window Structure (CFMWS).

+An example hierarchy:

+                  |
+         _________|_________

+ GP0/HB0/ACPI0016-0   GP1/HB1/ACPI0016-1

+   RP0        RP1      RP2         RP3

+  SW 0       SW 1     SW 2        SW 3

+Computation for the example hierarchy:
+
+Min (GP0 to CPU BW,
+     Min(SW 0 Upstream Link to RP0 BW,
+         Min(SW0SSLBIS for SW0DSP0 (EP0), EP0 DSLBIS, EP0 Upstream Link) +
+         Min(SW0SSLBIS for SW0DSP1 (EP1), EP1 DSLBIS, EP1 Upstream link)) +
+     Min(SW 1 Upstream Link to RP1 BW,
+         Min(SW1SSLBIS for SW1DSP0 (EP2), EP2 DSLBIS, EP2 Upstream Link) +
+         Min(SW1SSLBIS for SW1DSP1 (EP3), EP3 DSLBIS, EP3 Upstream link))) +
+Min (GP1 to CPU BW,
+     Min(SW 2 Upstream Link to RP2 BW,
+         Min(SW2SSLBIS for SW2DSP0 (EP4), EP4 DSLBIS, EP4 Upstream Link) +
+         Min(SW2SSLBIS for SW2DSP1 (EP5), EP5 DSLBIS, EP5 Upstream link)) +
+     Min(SW 3 Upstream Link to RP3 BW,
+         Min(SW3SSLBIS for SW3DSP0 (EP6), EP6 DSLBIS, EP6 Upstream Link) +
+         Min(SW3SSLBIS for SW3DSP1 (EP7), EP7 DSLBIS, EP7 Upstream link))))
+
+
+The calculation starts at cxl_region_shared_upstream_perf_update(). A xarray
+is created to collect all the endpoint bandwidths via the
+cxl_endpoint_gather_bandwidth() function. The min() of bandwidth from the
+endpoint CDAT and the upstream link bandwidth is calculated. If the endpoint
+has a CXL switch as a parent, then min() of calculated bandwidth and the
+bandwidth from the SSLBIS for the switch downstream port that is associated
+with the endpoint is calculated. The final bandwidth is stored in a
+'struct cxl_perf_ctx' in the xarray indexed by a device pointer. If the
+endpoint is direct attached to a root port (RP), the device pointer would be an
+RP device. If the endpoint is behind a switch, the device pointer would be the
+upstream device of the parent switch.
+
+At the next stage, the code walks through one or more switches if they exist
+in the topology. For endpoints directly attached to RPs, this step is skipped.
+If there is another switch upstream, the code takes the min() of the current
+gathered bandwidth and the upstream link bandwidth. If there's a switch
+upstream, then the SSLBIS of the upstream switch.
+
+Once the topology walk reaches the RP, whether it's direct attached endpoints
+or walking through the switch(es), cxl_rp_gather_bandwidth() is called. At
+this point all the bandwidths are aggregated per each host bridge, which is
+also the index for the resulting xarray.
+
+The next step is to take the min() of the per host bridge bandwidth and the
+bandwidth from the Generic Port (GP). The bandwidths for the GP is retrieved
+via ACPI tables SRAT/HMAT. The min bandwidth are aggregated under the same
+ACPI0017 device to form a new xarray.
+
+Finally, the cxl_region_update_bandwidth() is called and the aggregated
+bandwidth from all the members of the last xarray is updated for the
+access coordinates residing in the cxl region (cxlr) context.
