[PATCH v2] cxl: Allow initialization on timebase sync failures

Frederic Barrat fbarrat at linux.vnet.ibm.com
Fri Mar 18 23:42:21 AEDT 2016


Failure to synchronize the PSL timebase currently prevents the
initialization of the cxl card, thus rendering the card useless. This
is too extreme for a feature which is rarely used, if at all. No
hardware AFUs or software is currently using PSL timebase.

This patch still tries to synchronize the PSL timebase when the card
is initialized, but ignores the error if it can't. Instead, it reports
a status via /sys.

Applies on 4.5 tree. Version to be picked-up potentially by distros.
Needs a refresh for linux-next due to the powerVM patchset. Coming up.

Changelog:
v2: Update commit msg and a comment in code (Mikey's review)
    Remove ball of negativity within me.
