[PATCH v7 8/8] cxl: Allow auto-committed BI hdm decoders

Davidlohr Bueso <[email protected]> Tue, 28 Jul 2026 07:41:36 -0700
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-cxl
Message-ID <[email protected]>
Allow auto-committed BI hdm decoders on sane platforms, rejecting
only broken paths (ie: one that cannot route BISnp, or BI paired
with a host-only target range type).

The respective region creation is done like any other committed
decoder - with cxlds->bi set by the time an decoder attaches.

A committed BI decoder under a window without the BI restriction is
refused (undefined behavior per the CFMWS Window Restrictions), as
is a committed decoder attaching to a region of a different
coherency model.
