Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/3] cxl/mem: Separate provider registration from region attachment
Date: Wed,  7 Oct 2026 17:05:37 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261007090540.43817-2-icheng@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261007090540.43817-1-icheng@nvidia.com>

devm_cxl_probe_mem() requires a committed region when registering a
provider-owned memdev. If FW has not created a region, registration
fails before the provider can use the endpoint topology to provision
one.

Make the attachment probe callback optional while retaining a non-NULL
descriptor to preserve provider ownership and handling of CXL link loss.
Install endpoint cleanup for FW-discovered provider regions even when
the provider never requests attachment.

This establishes the registration and attachment APIs needed for
explicit region provisioning without introducing region creation or
allocation policy.

Signed-off-by: Richard Cheng <icheng@nvidia.com>

Changelog:

v1 -> v2:
- Rework the patch into a registration/attachment refactor, following
  Alejandro's request to separate region provisioning from memdev
registration.
- Add devm_cxl_register_mem() to establish a provider-owned memdev and
  its endpoint without requiring a comitted region.
- Add devm_cxl_attach_mem_region() to obtain the HPA range of an
  existing committed, single-target region after registration.
- Make the region probe callback optional while preserving provider
  ownership, synchronous endpoint setup, and hdling of CXL link loss.
