Since we're updating the comment anyway, let's clean up the "slot" language here. The PCIe spec doesn't use "slot" in the context of the bus/device/function PCIe topology; it only uses it when referring to a physical connector where a card might be installed. What we want here is "Device," and then we have to consider whether ARI makes any difference here. The spec says (referring to ASPM Control): For Multi-Function Devices (including ARI Devices), it is recommended that software program the same value for this field in all Functions. For non-ARI Multi-Function Devices, only capabilities enabled in all Functions are enabled for the component as a whole. For ARI Devices, ASPM Control is determined solely by the setting in Function 0, regardless of Function 0’s D-state. The settings in the other Functions always return whatever value software programmed for each, but otherwise are ignored by the component. A spec reference, e.g., "PCIe r6.0, sec 7.5.3.7", would be good here. Anyway, I think the idea of "software removing" a single function is kind of a niche situation that we don't need to worry about optimizing, and I think turning off ASPM completely will avoid a lot of weird corner cases. > */ > - if (!list_empty(&parent->subordinate->devices)) > - goto out; > - > link = parent->link_state; > root = link->root; > parent_link = link->parent; > > > -- > Thanks, > -dinghui >
