**RESENDING this cover letter previously mis-threaded.

Changes in v5:
- Rebase on cxl/next 
- Use struct_size() to calc mbox cmd payload .min_out
- s/INTERNAL/INJECTED mocked poison record source
- Added Jonathan Reviewed-by tag on Patch 3

Link to v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cxl/cover.1671135967.git.alison.schofield@intel.com/

Add support for retrieving device poison lists and store the returned
error records as kernel trace events.

The handling of the poison list is guided by the CXL 3.0 Specification
Section 8.2.9.8.4.1. [1] 

Example, triggered by memdev:
$ echo 1 > /sys/bus/cxl/devices/mem3/trigger_poison_list
cxl_poison: memdev=mem3 pcidev=cxl_mem.3 region= region_uuid=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 dpa=0x0 length=0x40 source=Internal flags= overflow_time=0

Example, triggered by region:
$ echo 1 > /sys/bus/cxl/devices/region5/trigger_poison_list
cxl_poison: memdev=mem0 pcidev=cxl_mem.0 region=region5 region_uuid=bfcb7a29-890e-4a41-8236-fe22221fc75c dpa=0x0 length=0x40 source=Internal flags= overflow_time=0
cxl_poison: memdev=mem1 pcidev=cxl_mem.1 region=region5 region_uuid=bfcb7a29-890e-4a41-8236-fe22221fc75c dpa=0x0 length=0x40 source=Internal flags= overflow_time=0

Will do, 'host' and add PCIe serial no.

Not always.
In the case above, where the trigger was by memdev, no.
Region= and region_uuid= (and in the follow-on patch, hpa=) only get
populated if the poison was triggered by region, like the case below.

It could be looked up for the by memdev cases. Is that wanted?

Thanks for the reviews Dan!

Just trying to understand the semantics. However, I do think it makes sense
for a memdev trigger to lookup information on all impacted regions
across all of the device's DPA and the region trigger makes sense to
lookup all memdevs, but bounded by the DPA that contributes to that
region. I just want to avoid someone having to trigger the region to get
extra information that was readily available from a memdev listing.

Dan - 

Confirming my take-away from this email, and our chat:

Remove the by-region trigger_poison_list option entirely. User space
needs to trigger by-memdev the memdevs participating in the region and
filter those events by region.

Add the region info (region name, uuid) to the TRACE_EVENTs when the
poisoned DPA is part of any region.

That's what I was thinking, yes. So the internals of
cxl_mem_get_poison() will take the cxl_region_rwsem for read and compare
the device's endpoint decoder settings against the media error records
to do the region (and later HPA) lookup.
