[RFC PATCH 2/2] PCI: pciehp: Add support for delayed power-on

From: Guenter Roeck
Date: Mon Oct 12 2015 - 15:10:43 EST


Some oddball devices may experience a PCIe link flap after power-on.
This may result in the following sequence of events.

fpc0 kernel: pciehp 0000:02:08.0:pcie24: Card present on Slot(0)
fpc0 kernel: pciehp 0000:02:08.0:pcie24: slot(0): Link Up event
fpc0 kernel: pciehp 0000:02:08.0:pcie24:
Link Up event ignored on slot(0): already powering on
fpc0 kernel: pciehp 0000:02:08.0:pcie24: slot(0): Link Down event
fpc0 kernel: pciehp 0000:02:08.0:pcie24:
Link Down event queued on slot(0): currently getting powered on
fpc0 kernel: pciehp 0000:02:08.0:pcie24: slot(0): Link Up event
fpc0 kernel: pciehp 0000:02:08.0:pcie24:
Link Up event queued on slot(0): currently getting powered off

This causes the driver for affected devices to be instantiated, removed,
and re-instantiated. This can result in problems, for example if the device
in question provides gpio pins or interrupts which are used by other
drivers. For example, the removal can result in errors such as
the following.

fpc0 kernel: remove_proc_entry: removing non-empty directory 'irq/148',
leaking at least 'pic0'
fpc0 kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------
fpc0 kernel: WARNING: at /home/p2020/linux-freescale/fs/proc/generic.c:575

Add support for per-port power-on delay to avoid this situation. This can
be enabled globally with the pciehp_poweron_delay module parameter, or
per port (using a quirks function) with a new poweron_delay flag in
struct pci_dev.

With this patch, the link flap still occurs, but because of the delayed
insertion the driver is not immediately instantiated, and the above error
is no longer seen.

We started seeing this problem after the recent rework of link status
change handling. I think the up/down/up sequence was previously just
ignored or folded into a single event (and sometimes resulted in a stuck
state machine).
I would like to see this patch upstream, but I am not sure if the problem
is seen anywhere but on the hardware I am dealing with, and I can
understand if others don't want to pollute the pcie hotplug code with
such workarounds. Also, maybe someone has a better idea on how to handle
the situation, so I marked the patch as RFC.
