I'll try that. Just checking if I understand correctly what you are suggesting. Currently we use pcie_capability_read_word() and check the return value. If the device is gone it returns an error and resets *val to 0. That only works if pci_dev_is_disconnected() is true so we would need to do something like below. pciehp_check_link_active(): ret = pcie_capability_read_word(pdev, PCI_EXP_LNKSTA, &lnk_status); if (ret == PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND || lnk_status == (u16)~0) return -ENODEV; Or you mean that we check only for ~0 in which case we either need to use pci_read_config_word() directly here or modify pcie_capability_read_word() return ~0 instead of clearing it?
