Hello List, Today all the PCI Hot-plug drivers (shpc, acpihp, cpqhp, ibmhp etc except pciedhp) directly claim the downstream port bridge device. Where as in case of pciehp, the PCIe port bus driver claims the bridge device, and service drivers (aer, pm, pciehp) simply register for the service with it. 1) Does that mean that in a system where I am using a driver other than pciehp for hot-plug (eg. shpc), I cannot use service drivers like AER or PM on the same port (since the device would be claimed by shpc, it would not be available to port bus driver)? 2) In the same system, can I use SHPC on one port, and pciehp on another port? I believe not? Please note that it may not be a realistic scenarios, my intent of asking is to just understand how things are intended to behave.
