I don't see why it should matter if we set the AHCI_HFLAG_USE_LPM_POLICY
flag using ahci_pci_tbl, or by your suggested quirk in ahci_init_one(),
as in both cases the flag will be set before ahci_init_one() calls
ahci_update_initial_lpm_policy().


Could it perhaps be that in order for libata to be able to detect your
drive, when VMD is enabled, we also need your patch
"PCI: vmd: enable PCI PM's L1 substates of remapped PCIe port and NVMe" ?


If that is not the case, and there actually is a difference between using
ahci_pci_tbl and your suggested quirk, then my next suggestion would be to
add prints to libata-sata.c:sata_link_scr_lpm(). That way you can dump the
exact SCR writes that are being done for the working case vs. the
non-working case. (Since I assume that there must be some difference.)


Kind regards,
Niklas
