HI Bjorn/Pratyush, Thanks for your inputs. We were able to do modify our driver according to V4.2-rc1. We were only be able to bring up MSI related changes but not Legacy. Can you point us how to handle Legacy interrupts in new approach (previously in ARM32 handled by map_irq method in hw_pci structure).

Pratyush already answered this: Please have a look to the latest kernel and try to see what is available for ARM64 PCIe. You may see drivers/pci/host/pci-xgene.c as reference. I see that there is already a driver for xilinx PCIe controller with ARM platform. drivers/pci/host/pcie-xilinx.c If it is the same device on ARM64, then you need to take similar approach what is being discussed for designware on ARM64. http://marc.info/?l=devicetree&m=143394380815743&w=2 My advice is to adapt your driver so it works using the interfaces and structures in v4.2-rc1 and post that. As Pratyush mentioned, the X-Gene driver should be a good place to start. There will likely be changes to the way we handle arch- and platform- specific data, but you don't need to wait for those to be completed. When people make changes like that, it is always their responsibility to update all the code in the tree to match. So once your code is in the tree, you don't have to worry about updating your driver to follow those changes. On the other hand, if you do wait for those changes to be completed, you never know when or if they ever will be done, and you'll have to do your own updates before posting your driver.
