In their Designware PCIe controller driver, amlogic sets the Max_Payload_Size & Max_Read_Request_Size to 256:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pci-meson.c#L260
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pci-meson.c#L276
in their root port PCIe Express Device Control Register.
Looking at the Synopsys DW-PCIe Databook, Max_Payload_Size & Max_Read_Request_Size are used to decompose into AXI burst,
but it seems the Max_Payload_Size & Max_Read_Request_Size are set by default to 512 but the internal Max_Payload_Size_Supported
is set to 256, thus changing these values to 256 at runtime to match and optimize bandwidth.
It's said, "Reducing Outbound Decomposition" :
- "Ensure that your application master does not generate bursts of size greater than or equal to Max_Payload_Size"
- "Program your PCIe system with a larger value of Max_Payload_Size without exceeding Max_Payload_Size_Supported"
- "Program your PCIe system with a larger value of Max_Read_Request without exceeding Max_Payload_Size_Supported:
So leaving 512 in Max_Payload_Size & Max_Read_Request leads to Outbound Decomposition which decreases PCIe link and degrades
the AXI bus by doubling the bursts, leading to this fix to avoid overflowing the AXI bus.
So it seems to be still needed, I assume this *should* be handled in the core somehow to propagate these settings to child endpoints to match
the root port Max_Payload_Size & Max_Read_Request sizes.
Maybe by adding a core function to set these values instead of using the dw_pcie_find_capability() & dw_pcie_write/readl_dbi() helpers
and set a state on the root port to propagate the value ?
