[PATCH v1 2/3] raw/ntb: add AMD NTB support

Sun Aug 23 16:06:38 CEST 2026


Add support for the NTB endpoints integrated in AMD EPYC Embedded
"Turin", "Genoa" and "Siena" processors to the raw/ntb driver.

The AMD NTB uses a primary/secondary topology: one endpoint enumerates
as the primary (device ID 0x14c0) and the other as the secondary
(device ID 0x14c3). The hardware exposes two memory windows (BAR23 and
BAR45), 16 doorbells and a single shared 16-register scratchpad bank.
The scratchpad bank is split into two disjoint 8-register sets, one per
side, so the driver uses a packed handshake layout that fits in 8
registers, plugged in through the framework's dev_handshake and
read_peer_config hooks. A vendor-specific MSI-X interrupt handler is
provided through the interrupt_handler hook.

AMD NTB uses an outbound translation window: a write to a BARxx memory
window offset is forwarded to (xlat_base | offset) in the peer's memory
rather than (xlat_base + offset). For that to be correct the
translation base must be aligned to a power of two >= the window length
so that no offset bit collides with a set bit in the base; the XLAT
register also requires at least 4K alignment. Report this requirement
to applications through a new mw_addr_align field in struct
ntb_dev_info, reject a misaligned base in amd_ntb_mw_set_trans, and
honour the field when reserving the memzone in the ntb example.

On the secondary side the device's own PCIe link status does not
reflect the true inter-host link, so the link speed and width are read
from the upstream switch port via sysfs.
