I was unaware of this. We had this in the pcie directory, but Bjorn asked us to move it to the pci directory as there isn't anything specific to PCIe about DOE. You could implement it on pci-x (maybe 2.0?) I think even though it's in the PCIe specification. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20210413194927.GA2241331@bjorn-Precision-5520/ Thanks, Jonathan > > I'll move the file no problem, thanks, > Ira > > > > > Thanks, > > > > Lukas
