Hi Rob,

Thanks a lot for your comments!

This patch cannot cover this case, and will get the SError.
But I think it makes sense to avoid firing transactions on link down bus.

Many customers connect the FPGA Endpoint, which may establish PCIe link
after the PCIe enumeration and then rescan the PCIe bus, so I think it should
not exit the probe of root port even if there is not link up during enumeration.

Thanks a lot for your investigation!
The story is like this: Some customers worry about these silent error (DWC PCIe
IP won't forward the error of outbound non-post request by default), so we
were pushed to enable the error forwarding to AXI in the commit
84d897d6993 as you saw. But it cannot differentiate the config transactions
from the MEM_rd, except the Vendor ID access, which is controlled by
a separate bit and it was set to not forward error of access of Vendor ID.
So we think it's okay to enable the error forwarding, the SError should not
occur, because after the enumeration it won't access the non-existent functions.

But now the SError is exactly caused by the first access of the non-existent
function, I dug into the kernel enumeration code and found it will fire a 4Byte
CFG read transaction to read the Vendor ID and Device ID together, so I suspect
the root cause is access the Device ID of a non-existent function triggers SError.

So the alternative solution seems to correct the PCIe enumeration, I will submit
a patch to let the first access only read the Vendor ID.

Thanks,
Zhiqiang
