I built 6.2-rc2 with the patch applied. The same black screen problem happened
with 6.2-rc2 with the patch. I tried to use early kdump with 6.2-rc2 with the
patch twice by panicking the kernel with sysrq+alt+c after the black screen
happened. The system rebooted after about 10-20 seconds both times, but no kdump
and dmesg files were saved in /var/crash. I'm attaching the lspci -vvv output as
requested.


Thanks for testing. As mentioned earlier I was not expecting this patch to fix
the black screen issue. It should fix kernel warnings and IOMMU page fault
related call traces. By any chance do you have the kernel boot logs?


@Baolu,
Looking into lspci output, it doesn't list ACS feature for Graphics card. So
with your fix it didn't enable PASID and hence it failed to boot.

The ACS checks being done are feature of the path not the end point or
root port.

If we are expecting ACS on the end port then it is just a bug in how
the test was written.. The test should be a NOP because there are no
switches in this topology.

Looking at it, this seems to just be because pci_enable_pasid is
calling pci_acs_path_enabled wrong, the only other user is here:

for (bus = pdev->bus; !pci_is_root_bus(bus); bus = bus->parent) {
if (!bus->self)
continue;

if (pci_acs_path_enabled(bus->self, NULL, REQ_ACS_FLAGS))
break;

pdev = bus->self;

group = iommu_group_get(&pdev->dev);
if (group)
return group;
}

And notice it is calling it on pdev->bus not on pdev itself which
naturally excludes the end point from the ACS validation.

So try something like:

if (!pci_acs_path_enabled(pdev->bus->self, NULL, PCI_ACS_RR | PCI_ACS_UF))

(and probably need to check for null ?)

Yeah! This really is a misuse of pci_acs_path_enabled().

But if @pdev is an endpoint of a multiple function device, perhaps we
still need to check acs on it?
