Subject: [PATCH v2 1/8] PCI: Add pcie_wait_after_link_train() helper

PCIe r6.0, sec 6.6.1 (Conventional Reset) requires that for a Downstream Port supporting Link speeds
greater than 5.0 GT/s, software must wait a minimum of 100 ms after Link training completes before
sending any Configuration Request.

Introduce a static inline helper pcie_wait_after_link_train() that checks the given max_link_speed (2 =
5.0 GT/s, 3 = 8.0 GT/s, etc.) and calls
msleep(100) only when the speed is greater than 5.0 GT/s. The helper uses the existing
PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS macro defined in pci.h.

This allows multiple host controller drivers to share the same mandatory delay without duplicating the
logic.

Maybe move this patch to the user??

Hi Biju,

Just as Mani's reply stated, I am more inclined to place it in the common header file.

Best regards,
Hans


Cheers,
