How is this specific to i.MX? If there's a need for compliance test mode, then shouldn't it be common? However, while your usecase is compliance testing, there doesn't seem to be any need for the kernel to know what the usecase is. In the same series you've argued both ways. You need the driver to probe successfully with no link and you need it to shutdown on no link. > > Use the "pci_imx6.compliance=1" in kernel command line to enable the > compliance tests mode. > > Signed-off-by: Richard Zhu <hongxing.zhu@xxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pci-imx6.c | 47 ++++++++++++++++++--------- > 1 file changed, 31 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-)
