A cxl_decoder is a child of a cxl_port. It represents a hardware decoder
configuration of an upstream port to one or more of its downstream
ports. The decoder is either represented in CXL standard HDM decoder
registers (see CXL 2.0 section 8.2.5.12 CXL HDM Decoder Capability
Structure), or it is a static decode configuration communicated by
platform firmware (see the CXL Early Discovery Table: Fixed Memory
Window Structure).
The firmware described and hardware described decoders differ slightly
leading to 2 different sub-types of decoders, cxl_decoder_root and
cxl_decoder_switch. At the root level the decode capabilities restrict
what can be mapped beneath them. Mid-level switch decoders are
configured for either acclerator (type-2) or memory-expander (type-3)
operation, but they are otherwise agnostic to the type of memory
(volatile vs persistent) being mapped.
Here is an example topology from a single-ported host-bridge environment
without CFMWS decodes enumerated.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
