    PCI/ACPI: Add Broadcom bcm2711 MCFG quirk

Now that we have a bcm2711 quirk, we need to be able to
detect it when the MCFG is missing. Use a namespace
property as an alternative to the MCFG OEM.

Rewrap to use ~75 columns.

Mention the DT namespace property here.

Rewrap comment to use ~80 columns.

Seems pretty reasonable that a platform without standard ECAM might
not have MCFG, since MCFG basically implies ECAM.


Sure, on all the above comments.


Is "linux,pcie-quirk" the right property to look for?  It doesn't
sound very generic, and it doesn't sound like anything related to
ECAM.  Is it new?  I don't see it in the tree yet.  Should it be in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pci/pci.txt so we don't get a
different property name for every new platform?

No, it should not be in pci.txt. Nothing to do with DT and I don't
review ACPI bindings (someone should) if I can help it.

That is the intention of the uefi properties registry I referred to earlier. It has a code first model too, which allows us to review it here and then update the document with the property and the intended behavior.


Yes, I made it up. Someone else commented about the "linux," partially
because it should be "linux-" to conform with
https://github.com/UEFI/DSD-Guide. But also in the same context of it
being linux specific.  I think that guide is where it should end up,
rather than the devicetree bindings.

I guess we can request addition to the uefi- but that seems like a
mistake this is really (hopefully?) a Linux specific properly as other
OS's will simply use the SMC. I think we could request another prefix if
we come up with a good one and think it belongs in that guide.

It's only Linux specific until it's not.

What happens when there's a second PCIe quirk here? Say what the quirk
is (and not in terms of Linux policy).

This is really just a stand in for the existing MCFG oem id, its an identifier to key off, nothing else. Maybe a better name is "linux-ecam-quirk-id" or something to that effect?


Don't you know the device here and can imply all this (like implying
off of 'compatible' in DT)? Adding properties to address issues
creates compatibility issues. Maybe not an issue in this case if the
firmware is not stable, but not a good practice to be in.

Yes, and no, I think there was some discussion a few years back about using non standard HID's for these nonstandard implementations, but that was discouraged at the time in favor of using the standard identifiers and and keying off a Soc/platform specific ID to enable a "quirk". Given we are a bit far down that path and the decision was made to continue down it (rather than solving much of it with a new firmware interface) this seems like the straightforward solution. The vast majority of these are SoC specific, and just minor tweaks for alignment/etc. Given its an ACPI/UEFI machine we are already hiding a lot of the platform specific behavior for configuring the bridge/etc that might require DT like properties in the firmware.


Thanks again.
