I added log at when driver is probed and when regulator is enabled. Here is the log with "startup-delay-us = <50000>": ``` [ 1.572991] rockchip-dw-pcie a40800000.pcie: rockchip_pcie_probe start [ 1.573697] rockchip-dw-pcie a40800000.pcie: going to enable vpcie3v3 regulator [ 1.575194] rockchip-dw-pcie a40800000.pcie: enable vpcie3v3 regulator done ``` And here is the log without "startup-delay-us": ``` [ 1.518490] rockchip-dw-pcie a40800000.pcie: rockchip_pcie_probe start [ 1.518603] rockchip-dw-pcie a40800000.pcie: going to enable vpcie3v3 regulator [ 1.518610] rockchip-dw-pcie a40800000.pcie: enable vpcie3v3 regulator done ``` We can see startup-delay-us will delay the driver probe. I also take a look at rockchip's SDK kernel, their pci driver is probed very late: ``` [ 3.398682] dw-pcie fe170000.pcie: invalid resource [ 3.398686] dw-pcie fe170000.pcie: Failed to initialize host [ 3.398688] dw-pcie: probe of fe170000.pcie failed with error -22 [ 3.399396] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: invalid prsnt-gpios property in node [ 3.399410] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: Looking up vpcie3v3-supply from device tree [ 3.405195] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: host bridge /pcie@fe170000 ranges: [ 3.405253] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: IO 0x00f2100000..0x00f21fffff -> 0x00f2100000 [ 3.405283] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: MEM 0x00f2200000..0x00f2ffffff -> 0x00f2200000 [ 3.405310] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: MEM 0x0980000000..0x09bfffffff -> 0x0980000000 [ 3.405372] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: iATU unroll: enabled [ 3.405381] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: iATU regions: 8 ob, 8 ib, align 64K, limit 8G [ 3.666917] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: PCIe Link up, LTSSM is 0x30011 [ 3.666932] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: PCIe Gen.1 x1 link up [ 3.667139] rk-pcie fe170000.pcie: PCI host bridge to bus 0002:20 ``` And it is reported that startup-delay-us is necessary in rockchip's SDK kernel. But in mainline kernel it is different. Jianfeng
