Revision eb01d4c2388ce3b5bcc120d0f72912117ed7599d authored by Ian Munsie on 28 October 2014, 03:25:30 UTC, committed by Michael Ellerman on 28 October 2014, 08:52:52 UTC
In certain circumstances the PSL (Power Service Layer, which provides
translation services for CXL hardware) can send an interrupt for a
segment miss that the kernel has already handled. This can happen if
multiple translations for the same segment are queued in the PSL before
the kernel has restarted the first translation.

The CXL driver does not expect this situation and does not check if a
segment had already been handled. This could cause a duplicate segment
table entry which in turn caused a PSL error taking down the card.

This patch fixes the issue by checking for existing entries in the
segment table that match the segment we are trying to insert, so as to
avoid inserting duplicate entries.
