Look at previous subject lines for changes to these files and follow the pattern.

This needs to be part of a series that uses pcie->is_hpa for something. This patch all by itself isn't useful for anything. Please post the resulting series with a cover letter and the patches as responses to it: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst?id=v6.13#n333 You can look at previous postings to see the style, e.g., https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20250115074301.3514927-1-pandoh@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#t > +static void cdns_pcie_ctlr_set_arch(struct cdns_pcie *pcie) > +{ > + /* Read register at offset 0xE4 of the config space > + * The value for architecture is in the lower 4 bits > + * Legacy-b'0010 and b'1111 for HPA-high performance architecture > + */ Don't include the hex register offset in the comment. That's what CDNS_PCIE_CTRL_ARCH is for. It doesn't need the bit values either.

Or maybe PCI_EXP_DEVCAP2? If so, use those existing #defines and the related masks (if it's DEVCAP2, you'd probably have to add a new one for the Completion Timeout Ranges Supported field). There's something similar in cdns_pcie_retrain(), where CDNS_PCIE_RP_CAP_OFFSET is apparently the config space offset of the PCIe Capability. > +#define CDNS_PCIE_CTRL_ARCH_MASK GENMASK(3, 0) > +#define CDNS_PCIE_CTRL_HPA 0xF
