cxl: Calculate region bandwidth of targets with shared upstream link
The current bandwidth calculation aggregates all the targets. This simple method does not take into account where multiple targets sharing under a switch or a root port where the aggregated bandwidth can be greater than the upstream link of the switch. To accurately account for the shared upstream uplink cases, a new update function is introduced by walking from the leaves to the root of the hierarchy and clamp the bandwidth in the process as needed. This process is done when all the targets for a region are present but before the final values are send to the HMAT handling code cached access_coordinate targets. The original perf calculation path was kept to calculate the latency performance data that does not require the shared link consideration. The shared upstream link calculation is done as a second pass when all the endpoints have arrived. Testing is done via qemu with CXL hierarchy. run_qemu[1] is modified to support several CXL hierarchy layouts. The following layouts are tested: HB: Host Bridge RP: Root Port SW: Switch EP: End Point 2 HB 2 RP 2 EP: resulting bandwidth: 624 1 HB 2 RP 2 EP: resulting bandwidth: 624 2 HB 2 RP 2 SW 4 EP: resulting bandwidth: 624 Current testing, perf number from SRAT/HMAT is hacked into the kernel code. However with new QEMU support of Generic Target Port that's incoming, the perf data injection is no longer needed.
