Hi Krzysztof: Regarding my understanding, that there should be decomposition operations if the Max_Read_Request_Size is larger than the Max_Payload_size specified by RC port. The bit0 of AMBA Multiple Outbound Decomposed NP Sub-Requests Control Register(Offset:0x700 + 0x24) had been set to be 1b1 in default. Note: The description of this bit. Enable AMBA Multiple Outbound Decomposed NP Sub- Requests. This bit when set to '0' disables the possibility of having multiple outstanding non-posted requests that were derived from decomposition of an outbound AMBA request. See Supported AXI Burst Operations for more details. You should not clear this register unless your application master is requesting an amount of read data greater than Max_Read_Request_Size, and the remote device (or switch) is reordering completions that have different tags > -----Original Message----- > From: khalasa@xxxxxxx <khalasa@xxxxxxx> > Sent: Monday, August 16, 2021 1:19 PM > To: Bjorn Helgaas <helgaas@xxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Krzysztof Wilczyński <kw@xxxxxxxxx>; Bjorn Helgaas > <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx>; linux-pci@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; Artem Lapkin > <email2tema@xxxxxxxxx>; Neil Armstrong <narmstrong@xxxxxxxxxxxx>; > Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@xxxxxxxxx>; Rob Herring <robh@xxxxxxxxxx>; > Lorenzo Pieralisi <lorenzo.pieralisi@xxxxxxx>; Richard Zhu > <hongxing.zhu@xxxxxxx>; Lucas Stach <l.stach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>; > linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: [PATCH] PCIe: limit Max Read Request Size on i.MX to 512 bytes > > Bjorn Helgaas <helgaas@xxxxxxxxxx> writes: > > >> TBH I don't think of this as of a "quirk" - all systems have MRRS > >> limits, it just happens that these ones have their limit lower than > >> 4096 bytes.

[Richard] The Max_payload_size can be configured from 128bytes to 4KB when integrate the DWC IP into the SOC. On i.MX6 PCIe, this parameter is fixed set to 512 bytes.
