CXL r3.1 Table 9-22 defines a fixed number of XOR maps for interleave

The current implementation applies all XOR maps during address
translation, but it should use the spec-defined number of XOR maps
derived from the number of interleave ways.

Ming,

I previously sent similar patch and then recalled it for the reason
described in this thread.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cxl/26c7ca6f-eb5f-4f20-8dba-e62e43e3e1b5@xxxxxxxxx

The above was all before
"4fe516d2ad1a6 cxl/acpi: Make the XOR calculations available for testing"
where I added input param checking and introduced nr_maps_to_apply.

I don't think it is necessary to use nr_maps_to_apply in the
for loop once the params have been validated. So maybe this patch
is a cleanup on commit 4fe516d2ad1a6 rather than a fix.

Please take a look again and let me know if I'm wrong again ;)

Hi Alison,


Thanks for pointing it out, you are right, it is not a bug. After reviewing cxl_parse_cxims(), the cxmisd->xormaps stores the correct number of xor maps based on the interleave ways. In fact, nr_maps_to_apply is equal to cximsd->nr_maps in cxl_do_xormap_calc(), So it is not needed to change it.


Hi Alison and Dave,


Please ignore this patch, apologies for the noise.


Thanks

Ming
