Why is that not a concern or why can we reliably handle everything "during boot" ? That's a good question and one I should have addressed. The goal is to prevent the dax driver from creating dax devices for soft reserve resources prior to the soft reserve resources being updated for any intersecting cxl regions. During boot the dax hmem driver walks the iomem tree to save off a copy of all soft reserve resources. The dax driver then later walks this copy to create dax devices for the soft reserve regions. This occurs before the cxl drivers load, create cxl regions, and update any intersecting soft reserve resources. To prevent this the soft reserves are set aside on a separate list during boot so that they can be updated (if needed) and later added to the iomem resource tree. The dax driver is then notified of any soft reserves added to the iomem tree so that it may consume them. Hopefully that answers your question. I'll include this in the next version. -Nathan > >> As part of this update two new interfaces are added for management of >> the SOFT RESERVED resources.
