CPU-PCIe path consits for registers PCIe BAR space, config space.
As there is less access on this path compared to pcie to mem path
add minimum vote i.e GEN1x1 bandwidth always.
In suspend remove the cpu vote after register space access is done.
Fixes: c4860af88d0c ("PCI: qcom: Add basic interconnect support")
If this patch is a Fixes then don't you need the accompanying dts change as a parallel Fixes too ?
i.e. without the dts update - you won't have the nodes in the dts to consume => applying this code to the stable kernel absent the dts will result in no functional change and therefore no bugfix.
The Fixes tag denotes a bug fix, its use for backport autosel is just
a nice "coincidence".
Fixing a lack of a required icc path and having to rely on BL leftovers
/ keepalive bus settings is definitely worth this tag in my eyes.
An incomplete implementation can sometimes be considered a bug, but not
always. If this is needed to enable a new use case, then it's hard to
argue that the original omission was a bug.
And as I just mentioned to Krishna, the above Fixes tag is not correct
as that commit did not *introduce* any issue. It solved the bit that was
strictly needed for sc8280xp, but now it seems you may need something
more for an even newer platform (even if no details and motivation was
included in the commit message as it should have been).
The PCIe hardware seems to be piggybacking off of others' bus
bandwidth requests and I think it's just been pure luck that
it didn't simply refuse to work on previous generations.
So indeed, the commit message seems incomplete in explaining
where the problem lies
