The PCI spec indicates that with stable power, reset needs to be
asserted for a minimum of 1ms (Trst).  Seems like we should be able
to assume power is stable for a runtime secondary bus reset.  The
current code has always used 100ms with no explanation where that
came from.  The aer_do_secondary_bus_reset() function uses 2ms, but
that seems to be a misinterpretation of the PCIe spec, where hot
reset is implemented by TS1 ordered sets containing the hot reset
command.  After a 2ms delay the state machine enters the detect state,
but to generate a link down, only two consecutive TS1 hot reset
ordered sets are requred.  1ms should be plenty for that.

After reset is de-asserted we must wait for devices to complete
initialization.  The specs refer to this as "recovery time" (Trhfa).
For PCI this is 2^25 clock cycles or 2^26 for PCI-X.  For minimum
bus speeds, both of those come to 1s.  PCIe "softens" this
requirement with the Configuration Request Retry Status (CRS)
completion status.  Theoretically we could use CRS to shorten the
wait time.  We don't make use of that here, using a fixed 1s delay
to allow devices to re-initialize.
Unfortunately, I don't think CRS is widely supported to make it worth
the additional checking&  use, atm.

Can't bus speed be determined from (config space) status bits, so
this time can be minimized, esp. on modern, PCIe busses/links ?
Not too many 33Mhz, legacy PCI busses that this type of
timing is desired, or will be done to (for device assignment/vfio). :-/

Just like CRS, is it worth it?  The PCIe spec seems to indicate a 1s
Trhfa regardless of bus speed.  Even if it didn't, we'd need to walk
down through all the subordinate buses to find a least common
denominator.  It seems sufficiently complicated to save it for a later
optimization.  Thanks,

Alex

ya sure.. I figured you had the spec memorized w/all these reset patches
you've worked on! ;-)
