I think of connecting this RC controller and EP based on `Linux PCI endpoint framework' in another machine. While this RC driver is probing, the EP driver might be also probing and configurating itself using configfs. If PERST# is toggled after the EP has done its configuration, this configuration will be lost. I expect that the EP configurates after RC has toggled PERST#, however, there is no way to synchronize both of them. > > > If PERST# has been already deasserted, it isn't necessary to assert > > here. > > What is the motativation for this patch?

Since EP device usually works without its configuration after PERST#, deassering PERST# here is no problem. Since bus reset breaks configuration of EP as shown above, bus reset should be done before EP has probed.

Indeed. I'll write the reason here. Thank you, --- Best Regards, Kunihiko Hayashi
