PCIe equalization presets are predefined settings used to optimize
signal integrity by compensating for signal loss and distortion in
high-speed data transmission.

As per PCIe spec 6.0.1 revision section 8.3.3.3 & 4.2.4 for data rates
of 8.0 GT/s, 16.0 GT/s, 32.0 GT/s, and 64.0 GT/s, there is a way to
configure lane equalization presets for each lane to enhance the PCIe
link reliability. Each preset value represents a different combination
of pre-shoot and de-emphasis values. For each data rate, different
registers are defined: for 8.0 GT/s, registers are defined in section
7.7.3.4; for 16.0 GT/s, in section 7.7.5.9, etc. The 8.0 GT/s rate has
an extra receiver preset hint, requiring 16 bits per lane, while the
remaining data rates use 8 bits per lane.

Based on the number of lanes and the supported data rate,
of_pci_get_equalization_presets() reads the device tree property and
stores in the presets structure.

Why did you limit to 16?

As per PCIe spec we support maximum of 16 lanes only right


No. PCIe spec defines Max Link Width up to 32 lanes. Though, we have only seen
16 lanes used widely. This field should correspond to 'Maximum Link Width' value
in the Link Capabilities Register.

As per spec 6.0.1 section 7.5.3.6 Link Capabilities Register max link
width is x16 only.
