[PATCH v2 0/6] PCI/DPC: Decide DPC ownership with host_bridge->native_dpc
From: Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan
Date: Tue Oct 20 2026 - 14:21:44 EST
This series makes host_bridge->native_dpc the single decider for whether
Linux uses DPC, as Bjorn asked during the review of "Simplify PCIe native
ownership".
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20261001221408.GA2731929@bhelgaas
Today the DPC service binds on host_bridge->native_aer, AER availability
and "pcie_ports=dpc-native". host_bridge->native_dpc is only consulted
by pci_dpc_recovered(). After this series, native_dpc is the end result
of everything that decides DPC ownership, and portdrv binds the DPC
service on it.
The series depends on:
- Three patches from v15 of "Simplify PCIe native ownership", merged
into pci/portdrv. They fold "pcie_ports=native" and
"pcie_ports=dpc-native" into the _OSC control mask, so native_dpc
already reflects the command line.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pci/pci.git/log/?h=portdrv
- Two DPC patches from Lukas's "Error reporting for AER-incapable
devices", which are included here directly as patches 1-2.

Patch 1 keeps the DPC driver from accessing a non-existent AER
capability.
Patch 2 drops the AER ownership check from dpc_probe(), so DPC also
works on ports without an AER capability.
Patch 3 removes CONFIG_PCIE_EDR, which was another knob in deciding
whether to request DPC control in _OSC.
Patch 4 stops requiring pci_aer_available() to bind the DPC service,
since the DPC driver does not depend on MSI or on the AER driver.
Patch 5 requests DPC control only together with AER control, as PCI
Firmware r3.3, sec 4.5.2.4, requires.
Patch 6 binds the DPC service on host_bridge->native_dpc and logs a
message when the OS assumes DPC control that _OSC did not grant.
Changes since v1:
- Include Lukas's two DPC patches instead of depending on his series
(Bjorn).
- Add Rafael's Acked-by to "Request DPC control only together with AER
control".
- Refer to "PCI/DPC: Reinstate support for AER-incapable ports" instead
of Lukas's series in the native_dpc binding patch.
