Could you rework your patch to only rectify the NHI's and XHCI's device properties and leave the bridges untouched? The thunderbolt driver will then rectify the bridge's properties using the patches on this branch (particularly the one named "thunderbolt: Mark PCIe Adapters on Root Switch as non-removable"): https://github.com/l1k/linux/commits/thunderbolt_associate_v1 This approach keeps most of the code in the thunderbolt driver (which has a very clear picture which PCI bridges belong to the Host Router and which to Device Routers). The footprint in the PCI core is thus kept minimal, which increases upstream acceptability of your patch. You can match the NHI using DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_CLASS_FINAL(): * Search for PCI_CLASS_SERIAL_USB_USB4 with class shift 0 to match a USB4 Host Interface from any vendor. * Seach for PCI_CLASS_SYSTEM_OTHER with class shift 8 to match a Thunderbolt 1 to 3 Host Interface. I recommend checking the is_thunderbolt bit on those devices to avoid matching a non-NHI. Then fixup the device properties of the NHI so that it can bind. To also rectify the properties of the XHCI, you'd have to use pci_upstream_bridge() to find the Downstream Port above, check whether that's non-NULL. The bus on which the Downstream Port resides is pdev->bus. On all Host Routers I know, the XHCI is below slot 02.0 on that bus, so you could use pci_get_slot() to find that Downstream Port, then use pci_get_slot() again to find slot 00.0 on that bridge's subordinate bus. If that device has class PCI_CLASS_SERIAL_USB_XHCI, you've found the XHCI and can rectify its properties. Device references acquired with pci_get_*() need to be returned with pci_dev_put(). The quirk should be #ifdef'ed to CONFIG_ACPI. Alternatively, it could be declared in pci-acpi.c near pci_acpi_set_external_facing(). > > However that doesn't appear to be sufficient: I notice that in your > > patch, you're also clearing the external_facing bit on the Root Port > > above the discrete host controller. > > Rajat (rajatja@xxxxxxxxxx) in an internal review had suggested I add > that, and leave it up to kernel maintainers to decide if it's strictly > necessary.

Please let me > know! Never mind, this scenario is being tested internally at Intel and the above-linked branch contains a commit to avoid binding to a Host Interface exposed by a Device Router.
