Interesting.

What does lspci say on those systems?

Thanks.
As NumaConnect remote-server I/O is in a pre-release stage, we only
expose I/O on the first (root) server, so the lspci on eg my three
server, single-socket C32 development system is uninteresting [1].

Yeah, I was looking for the NB devices:

00:18.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] Family 10h Processor HyperTransport Configuration
00:18.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] Family 10h Processor Address Map
00:18.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] Family 10h Processor DRAM Controller
00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] Family 10h Processor Miscellaneous Control
00:18.4 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] Family 10h Processor Link Control

[ â ]

We map MMCONFIG addresses in the global address map to the
respective server, which is how we access the processor Northbridges
in the bootloader before Linux loads, so they are accessible and get
enumerated when we enable remote I/O with the ACPI SSDT we generate,
however since the AMD APIC IDs (hence NB IDs) are only 8-bit, the
present amd_get_nb_id will produce duplicate NB IDs at best (but in
this case, as we disable I/O routing, there is no structure); later,
we may propose to using eg bits 23:8 for the server ID. That's
another discussion though.

Ah yes, I remember now. We had this discussion already, AFAIR. So if you
say you disable I/O routing, what actually doesn't work out as expected
is the NB enumeration in amd_nb.c where pci_get_device simply fails?

Because if you had duplicate APIC IDs, you'd atleast get some NB
descriptor, even if not the correct one?

With remote-I/O disabled, since only the first PCI domain has been enumerated, the array of Northbridge IDs has structures only for the root (first) server's northbridges, thus the lookup returns NULL for later ones.

Yes, we see the duplicates with remote I/O enabled [1, 2], stemming from amd64_edac.h:

static inline u8 get_node_id(struct pci_dev *pdev)
{
return PCI_SLOT(pdev->devfn) - 0x18;
}

How about a patch that would add the PCI domain eg in bits 8 and up?

The minimal patch at least corrects the oops regression which didn't
happen in earlier kernels.

Right, I beefed it up a bit and added a stable tag, pls take a look and
let me know if it is ok. I'll run it on a couple of machines but I don't
expect any issues so I'll send it upstream soon.

Looks good!

Thanks Boris,
Daniel
