Add support for Non-Transparent Bridge connected to a PCI-E Root Port on
the remote system (also known as NTB-RP mode). This allows for a NTB
enabled system to be connected to a non-NTB enabled system/slot.
Modifications to the registers and BARs/MWs on the Secondary side by the
remote system are reflected into registers on the Primary side for the
local system. Similarly, modifications of registers and BARs/MWs on
Primary side by the local system are reflected into registers on the
Secondary side for the Remote System. This allows communication between
the 2 sides via these registers and BARs/MWs.
Note: there is not a fix for the Xeon Errata (that was already worked
around in NTB-B2B mode) for NTB-RP mode. Due to this limitation, NTB-RP
will not work on the Secondary side with the Xeon Errata workaround
enabled. To get around this, disable the workaround via the

The BWD NTB device will drop the link if an error is encountered on the
point-to-point PCI bridge. The link will stay down until all errors are
cleared and the link is re-established. On link down, check to see if
the error is detected, if so do the necessary housekeeping to try and
recover from the error and reestablish the link.
There is a potential race between the 2 NTB devices recovering at the
same time. If the times are synchronized, the link will not recover and the
driver will be stuck in this loop forever. Add a random interval to the
recovery time to prevent this race.

There is a Xeon hardware errata related to writes to SDOORBELL or
B2BDOORBELL in conjunction with inbound access to NTB MMIO Space, which
may hang the system. To workaround this issue, use one of the memory
windows to access the interrupt and scratch pad registers on the remote
system. This bypasses the issue, but removes one of the memory windows
from use by the transport. This reduction of MWs necessitates adding
some logic to determine the number of available MWs.
Since some NTB usage methodologies may have unidirectional traffic, the
ability to disable the workaround via modparm has been added.

A PCI-Express non-transparent bridge (NTB) is a point-to-point PCIe bus
connecting 2 systems, providing electrical isolation between the two subsystems.
A non-transparent bridge is functionally similar to a transparent bridge except
that both sides of the bridge have their own independent address domains. The
host on one side of the bridge will not have the visibility of the complete
memory or I/O space on the other side of the bridge. To communicate across the
non-transparent bridge, each NTB endpoint has one (or more) apertures exposed to
the local system. Writes to these apertures are mirrored to memory on the
remote system. Communications can also occur through the use of doorbell
registers that initiate interrupts to the alternate domain, and scratch-pad
registers accessible from both sides.
The NTB device driver is needed to configure these memory windows, doorbell, and
scratch-pad registers as well as use them in such a way as they can be turned
into a viable communication channel to the remote system. ntb_hw.[ch]
determines the usage model (NTB to NTB or NTB to Root Port) and abstracts away
the underlying hardware to provide access and a common interface to the doorbell
registers, scratch pads, and memory windows. These hardware interfaces are
exported so that other, non-mainlined kernel drivers can access these.
ntb_transport.[ch] also uses the exported interfaces in ntb_hw.[ch] to setup a
communication channel(s) and provide a reliable way of transferring data from
one side to the other, which it then exports so that "client" drivers can access
them. These client drivers are used to provide a standard kernel interface
(i.e., Ethernet device) to NTB, such that Linux can transfer data from one
system to the other in a standard way.
