Does > the kernel need the BIOS to detect the card right? The kernel should at least discover the card even if the BIOS doesn't do anything. But on x86, the BIOS usually *does* configure things, so it's very possible we could trip over a Linux defect if it doesn't. Try booting with "pci=pcie_scan_all". That *shouldn't* make a difference because this isn't a PCIe device, but maybe our logic is broken. Your topology looks a little strange: 00:1c.0 PCIe root port to [bus 01] slot 0 00:1c.1 PCIe root port to [bus 02] slot 1 00:1c.2 PCIe root port to [bus 03-05] slot 2 03:00.0 PCI bridge to [bus 04-05] (Integrated Technology Express) 04:01.0 PCI bridge to [bus 05] (Hint Corp) 00:1c.2 is a normal PCIe Root Port, so the device it's connected to *should* be a PCIe device, but 03:00.0 doesn't have a PCIe capability. Is this an adapter card of some kind? 03:00.0 is an ITE 8893, and we do have a quirk related to a similar device: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/pci/quirks.c?h=v4.4#n3662 Can you try the patch below, please? diff --git a/drivers/pci/probe.c b/drivers/pci/probe.c index 6d7ab9b..f6d8e85 100644 --- a/drivers/pci/probe.c +++ b/drivers/pci/probe.c @@ -1530,6 +1530,7 @@ bool pci_bus_read_dev_vendor_id(struct pci_bus *bus, int devfn, u32 *l, if (pci_bus_read_config_dword(bus, devfn, PCI_VENDOR_ID, l)) return false; + dev_info(&bus->dev, "%s %02x %#010x\n", __func__, devfn, *l); /* some broken boards return 0 or ~0 if a slot is empty: */ if (*l == 0xffffffff || *l == 0x00000000 || *l == 0x0000ffff || *l == 0xffff0000) @@ -1571,6 +1572,7 @@ static struct pci_dev *pci_scan_device(struct pci_bus *bus, int devfn) struct pci_dev *dev; u32 l; + dev_info(&bus->dev, "%s %02x\n", __func__, devfn); if (!pci_bus_read_dev_vendor_id(bus, devfn, &l, 60*1000)) return NULL; @@ -1751,6 +1753,7 @@ struct pci_dev *pci_scan_single_device(struct pci_bus *bus, int devfn) { struct pci_dev *dev; + dev_info(&bus->dev, "%s %02x\n", __func__, devfn); dev = pci_get_slot(bus, devfn); if (dev) { pci_dev_put(dev); @@ -1825,6 +1828,7 @@ int pci_scan_slot(struct pci_bus *bus, int devfn) unsigned fn, nr = 0; struct pci_dev *dev; + dev_info(&bus->dev, "%s %02x\n", __func__, devfn); if (only_one_child(bus) && (devfn > 0)) return 0; /* Already scanned the entire slot */ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
