Abstract: A method and data processing system enables scheduling of atomic operations within a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) architecture during page migration. In at least one embodiment, firmware detects the activation of a page migration operation. The firmware notifies the I/O host bridge, which responds by setting an atomic operation stall (AOS) bit to a pre-established value that indicates that there is an ongoing migration within the memory subsystem of a memory page that is mapped to that I/O host bridge. When the AOS bit is set to the pre-established value, the I/O host bridge prevents/stalls any received atomic operations from completing. The I/O host bridge responds to receipt of receipt of an atomic operation by preventing the atomic operation from being initiated within the memory subsystem, when the AOS bit is set to the pre-established value. The AOS bit is reset when the migration operation has completed.

Abstract: A data processing system includes an input/output (I/O) host bridge to which at least one I/O adapter is coupled by an I/O link. In a register of the I/O host bridge, a configuration partitionable endpoint (PE) field is set to identify a PE to be used for an I/O configuration operation. Thereafter, the host bridge initiates the I/O configuration operation on the I/O link and determines if an error occurred for the I/O configuration operation. In response to a determination that an error occurred for the I/O configuration operation, an error state is set in the I/O host bridge only for the PE indicated in the configuration PE field of the register in the I/O host bridge, wherein I/O configuration errors are isolated to particular PEs.

Abstract: A method and data processing system enables scheduling of atomic operations within a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) architecture during page migration. In at least one embodiment, firmware detects the activation of a page migration operation and sets a migration bit in the page table. When the PCIe Host Bridge (PHB) receives an atomic operation, the PHB checks the migration bit associated with the memory page targeted by the atomic operation and if the migration bit is set, the PHB buffers the atomic operation and sets an atomic operation stall (AOS) bit associated with the buffer. The atomic operation is stalled until the migration bit is reset, at which time the PHB resets the AOS bit of the buffer. The atomic operations are permitted to continue when the migration bit of the target memory page is not set, and along with DMA operations, may bypass other stalled atomic operations.
