Each time the contents of a given HPA are potentially changed in a cache
incoherent manner the CXL core sets CXL_REGION_F_INCOHERENT to
invalidate CPU caches before the region is used.
Successful invocation of attach_target() indicates that DPA has been
newly assigned to a given HPA in the dynamic region creation flow.
However, attach_target() is also reused in the autodiscovery flow where
the region was activated by platform firmware. In that case there is no
need to invalidate caches because that region is already in active use
and nothing about the autodiscovery flow modifies the HPA-to-DPA
relationship.
In the autodiscovery case cxl_region_attach() exits early after
determining the endpoint decoder is already correctly attached to the
region.

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.
