[PATCH] Use maximum latency when determining L1 ASPM

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Make pcie_aspm_check_latency comply with the PCIe spec, specifically:
"5.4.1.2.2. Exit from the L1 State"

Which makes it clear that each switch is required to initiate a
transition within 1μs from receiving it, accumulating this latency and
then we have to wait for the slowest link along the path before
entering L0 state from L1.

The current code doesn't take the maximum latency into account.

>From the example:
   +----------------+
   |                |
   |  Root complex  |
   |                |
   |    +-----+     |
   |    |32 μs|     |
   +----------------+
           |
           |  Link 1
           |
   +----------------+
   |     |8 μs|     |
   |     +----+     |
   |    Switch A    |
   |     +----+     |
   |     |8 μs|     |
   +----------------+
           |
           |  Link 2
           |
   +----------------+
   |    |32 μs|     |
   |    +-----+     |
   |    Switch B    |
   |    +-----+     |
   |    |32 μs|     |
   +----------------+
           |
           |  Link 3
           |
   +----------------+
   |     |8μs|      |
   |     +---+      |
   |   Endpoint C   |
   |                |
   |                |
   +----------------+

Links 1, 2 and 3 are all in L1 state - endpoint C initiates the
transition to L0 at time T. Since switch B takes 32 μs to exit L1 on
it's ports, Link 3 will transition to L0 at T+32 (longest time
considering T+8 for endpoint C and T+32 for switch B).

Switch B is required to initiate a transition from the L1 state on it's
upstream port after no more than 1 μs from the beginning of the
transition from L1 state on the downstream port. Therefore, transition from
L1 to L0 will begin on link 2 at T+1, this will cascade up the path.

The path will exit L1 at T+34.

On my specific system:
lspci -PP -s 04:00.0
00:01.2/01:00.0/02:04.0/04:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 816e (rev 1a)

lspci -vvv -s 04:00.0
		DevCap:	MaxPayload 128 bytes, PhantFunc 0, Latency L0s <512ns, L1 <64us
...
		LnkCap:	Port #0, Speed 5GT/s, Width x1, ASPM L0s L1, Exit Latency L0s unlimited, L1 <64us
...

Which means that it can't be followed by any switch that is in L1 state.

This patch fixes it by disabling L1 on 02:04.0, 01:00.0 and 00:01.2.

                                                    LnkCtl    LnkCtl
