Hi, I have been testing a TI AM57xx board and a NXP iMX8 board with a GPIB PCIe card. TI board (Phytec): https://www.phytec.com/product/phycore-am57x/ NXP board (Variscite): https://www.variscite.com/product/system-on-module-som/cortex-a53-krait/var-som-mx8m-mini-nxp-i-mx8m-mini/ The GPIB PCIe card has a Texas Instruments XIO2000(A)/XIO2200A PCI Express-to-PCI Bridge. Issue: I have noticed is that on Linux kernel 4.9, the Linux PCI driver assigns correctly an IRQ number: Linux am5728-phycore-rdk 4.9.41-ga962b18-BSP-Yocto-TISDK-AM57xx-PD18.1.0 02:00.0 Communication controller: National Instruments PCIe-GPIB (rev 02) Subsystem: National Instruments PCIe-GPIB Control: I/O- Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr+ Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 470 On a newer kernel (this case 4.19), PCI driver doesn't assign an IRQ number.

I have tested kernels 4.14, 4.19 and 5.4.3. The IRQ is important to get the legacy interrupts working. Looking at the code there has been some refactoring of how PCI assigns IRQ number when there is a chain of bridges. I am not too familiar with how the code works but I wonder if this has affected how the PCI assignment works. Looking in setup-irq.c: /* If this device is not on the primary bus, we need to figure out which interrupt pin it will come in on. We know which slot it will come in on 'cos that slot is where the bridge is. Each time the interrupt line passes through a PCI-PCI bridge we must apply the swizzle function. */ Line 44: if (hbrg->swizzle_irq) >From my understanding, this "if" didn't exist in Linux kernel 4.9. If swizzle function isn't assigned in the newer kernels it just stays as 0. This might be completely unrelated as I said I have no understanding how this code is supposed to work. What I ask is if anyone has experienced any issues similar to this in these more recent kernel versions. Regards, Billy.
