[PATCH v4 0/2] PCI: AtomicOps: Fix pci_enable_atomic_ops_to_root()

From: Gerd Bayer

Date: Fri Mar 13 2026 - 12:51:28 EST


Hi Bjorn et al.

On s390, AtomicOp Requests are enabled on a PCI function that supports
them, despite the helper being ignorant about the root port's capability
to supporting their completion.

Patch 1: Fix the logic in pci_enable_atomic_ops_to_root()
Patch 2: Update references to PCIe spec in that function.

I did test that the issue is fixed with these patches. Also, I verified
that on a Mellanox/Nvidia ConnectX-6 adapter plugged straight into the
root port of a x86 system still gets AtomicOp Requests enabled.

Due to lacking the required hardware, I did not test this with any PCIe
switches between root port and endpoint. So test exposure to other
environments is highly appreciated.
