Hi Sam,

The RK3588 PCIe 3.0 controller seems to have unpredictable behavior when
no CLKREQ/PERST/WAKE pins are configured in the pinmux. In particular, it
will sometimes (varying between specific RK3588 chips, not over time) shut
off the DBI block, and reads to this range will instead stall
indefinitely.

When this happens, it will prevent Linux from booting altogether. The
PCIe driver will stall the CPU core once it attempts to read the version
information from the DBI range.

Fix this boot hang by adding the correct pinctrl configuration to the
PCIe 3.0 device node, which is the proper thing to do anyway. While
we're at it, also add the necessary configuration to the PCIe 2.0 node,
which may or may not fix the equivalent problem over there -- but is the
proper thing to do anyway. :)

Hi list,

Compared to v1, v2 removes the `reset-gpios` properties as well -- this should
give control of the PCIe resets exclusively to the PCIe cores. (And even if the
`reset-gpios` props had no effect in v1, it'd be confusing to have them there.)

Hmm, I'd think this could result in differing behaviour.

I.e. I tried the same on a different board with a nvme drive on the pci30x4
controller. But moving the reset from the gpio-way to "just" setting the
perstn pinctrl, simply hung the controller when probing the device.

Ah, I'm guessing it died in:
ver = dw_pcie_readl_dbi(pci, PCIE_VERSION_NUMBER);

If so, that's the same hang that this patch is aiming to solve. I'm starting to wonder if having muxed pins != 1 for a given signal upsets the RC(s). Is your board (in an earlier boot stage: reset/maskrom/bootloader) muxing a different perstn pin option to that controller (and Linux doesn't know to clear it away)? Then when you add the perstn pinctrl the total number of perstns muxed to the controller comes to 2, and without a reset-gpios = <...>; to take it away again, that number stays at 2 to cause the hang upon the DBI read?

If so, that'd mean the change resolves the hang for me, because it brings the total up to 1 (from 0), but also causes the hang for you, because it brings the total up to 2 (away from 1).


So I guess I'd think the best way would be to split the pinctrl up into the
3 separate functions (clkreqn, perstn, waken) so that boards can include
them individually.

Mm, maybe. Though that might be more appropriate if a board comes along that doesn't connect all of those signals to the same group of pins. I worry that attempting to solve this hang by doing that will instead just mask the real problem.


Nobody is using the controller pinctrl entries so far anyway :-) .

Then it's interesting that this board requires them in order to avoid a hang on boot. I'll see if there's anything else that I can find out.

I've just finished testing the latest iteration of this patch with 6.10-rc2 on my RK1 on a Turing Pi 2 carrier board. I can confirm that unpatched mainline fails to boot with the same hang described here, and the patch does make the board boot again.

Happy Friday,

Note that it is OK for the pcie2x1l1 node to refer to pcie30x1m1_pins. The
pcie2x1l1 device is *in fact* a PCIe 3.0 controller, and the pcie30x1m1_pins
pinmux setting is so-named to reflect this. The pcie2x1l1 node is so-named
because Linux does not (currently) support routing it to a PCIe 3.0 PHY; so in
practice it is effectively a PCIe 2.0 controller, for the time being.

Cheers and thank you for your time,
Sam
