It looks like that if PCIe Bridge has initial value 5 GT/s (or higher) in PCI_EXP_LNKCAP2 register and link retraining is activated, something happen which cause these Atheros chips to "crash". Looks like that Root Bridge tries to change link speed from 2.5 GT/s to 5 GT/s (which is not supported by all these Atheros chips). > and when aspm.c retrains the link to configure the common > clock, we downgrade to 2.5 GT/s, so the device is now slower than it > used to be? > > Is that slower speed acceptable?

Right? PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_SLS is maximal supported speed by Bridge. So if bridge does not support higher speed, we do not have to do anything. > > + /* Check if link speed can be downgraded to 2.5 GT/s */ > > + pcie_capability_read_dword(parent, PCI_EXP_LNKCAP2, ®32); > > + if (!(reg32 & PCI_EXP_LNKCAP2_SLS_2_5GB)) { > > + pci_err(parent, "ASPM: Bridge does not support changing Link Speed to 2.5 GT/s\n"); > > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > + } > > Why is this check needed? Per PCIe r5.0, sec 8.2.1, all devices must > support 2.5 GT/s. Because older PCIe devices does not have to support PCI_EXP_LNKCAP2 register (in which cause they returns zero). And this applies also for pci-bridge-emul.c driver. So this check is needed at least for devices which use pci-bridge-emul.c driver. > > + /* Force link speed to 2.5 GT/s */ > > + ret = pcie_capability_clear_and_set_word(parent, PCI_EXP_LNKCTL2, > > + PCI_EXP_LNKCTL2_TLS, > > + PCI_EXP_LNKCTL2_TLS_2_5GT); > > + if (!ret) { > > + /* Verify that new value was really set */ > > + pcie_capability_read_word(parent, PCI_EXP_LNKCTL2, ®16); > > + if ((reg16 & PCI_EXP_LNKCTL2_TLS) != PCI_EXP_LNKCTL2_TLS_2_5GT) > > + ret = -EINVAL; > > + } > > + > > + if (ret) { > > + pci_err(parent, "ASPM: Changing Target Link Speed to 2.5 GT/s failed: %d\n", ret); > > + return ret; > > + } > > + > > + pci_info(parent, "ASPM: Target Link Speed changed to 2.5 GT/s due to quirk\n"); > > + return 0; > > +} > > + > > static bool pcie_retrain_link(struct pcie_link_state *link) > > { > > struct pci_dev *parent = link->pdev; > > unsigned long end_jiffies; > > u16 reg16; > > > > + if ((link->downstream->dev_flags & PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RETRAIN_LINK_WHEN_NOT_GEN1) && > > + pcie_downgrade_link_to_gen1(parent)) { > > I assume (correct me if I'm wrong) that this would work equally well > if we set the *endpoint's* target link speed to 2.5 GT/s instead of > the upstream bridge's? I think not. Issue is really when Bridge-end of the link supports higher than 2.5 GT/s speed this end tries to increase speed. As device-end of the link supports only 2.5 GT/s there is nothing to change to higher speed from device-end point of view. > I think the log messages would make more sense > then, since the problem is really with the endpoint, not the parent. So... buggy is device (child) end of the link and only bridge (parent) end of the link can workaround it. And if bridge end is not capable (e.g. because of pci-bridge-emul.c) then it is problem of bridge (parent) end. > > + pci_err(parent, "ASPM: Retrain Link at higher speed is disallowed by quirk\n"); > > + return false; > > + } > > + > > pcie_capability_read_word(parent, PCI_EXP_LNKCTL, ®16); > > reg16 |= PCI_EXP_LNKCTL_RL; > > pcie_capability_write_word(parent, PCI_EXP_LNKCTL, reg16); > > diff --git a/drivers/pci/quirks.c b/drivers/pci/quirks.c > > index 653660e3ba9e..4999ad9d08b8 100644 > > --- a/drivers/pci/quirks.c > > +++ b/drivers/pci/quirks.c > > @@ -3553,23 +3553,46 @@ static void mellanox_check_broken_intx_masking(struct pci_dev *pdev) > > DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_FINAL(PCI_VENDOR_ID_MELLANOX, PCI_ANY_ID, > > mellanox_check_broken_intx_masking); > > > > -static void quirk_no_bus_reset(struct pci_dev *dev) > > +static void quirk_no_bus_reset_and_no_retrain_link(struct pci_dev *dev) > > { > > - dev->dev_flags |= PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET; > > + dev->dev_flags |= PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET | > > + PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RETRAIN_LINK_WHEN_NOT_GEN1; > > } > > > > /* > > - * Some Atheros AR9xxx and QCA988x chips do not behave after a bus reset. > > + * Atheros AR9xxx and QCA9xxx chips do not behave after a bus reset and also > > + * after retrain link when PCIe bridge is not in GEN1 mode at 2.5 GT/s speed. > > * The device will throw a Link Down error on AER-capable systems and > > * regardless of AER, config space of the device is never accessible again > > * and typically causes the system to hang or reset when access is attempted. > > + * Or if config space is accessible again then it contains only dummy values > > + * like fixed PCI device ID 0xABCD or values not initialized at all. > > + * Retrain link can be called only when using GEN1 PCIe bridge or when > > + * PCIe bridge has forced link speed to 2.5 GT/s via PCI_EXP_LNKCTL2 register. > > + * To reset these cards it is required to do PCIe Warm Reset via PERST# pin. > > * https://lore.kernel.org/r/20140923210318.498dacbd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ > > + * https://lore.kernel.org/r/87h7l8axqp.fsf@xxxxxxx/ > > + * https://www.mail-archive.com/ath9k-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg07529.html > > */ > > -DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0030, quirk_no_bus_reset); > > -DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0032, quirk_no_bus_reset); > > -DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x003c, quirk_no_bus_reset); > > -DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0033, quirk_no_bus_reset); > > -DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0034, quirk_no_bus_reset); > > +DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x002e, > > + quirk_no_bus_reset_and_no_retrain_link); > > +DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0030, > > + quirk_no_bus_reset_and_no_retrain_link); > > +DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0032, > > + quirk_no_bus_reset_and_no_retrain_link); > > +DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0033, > > + quirk_no_bus_reset_and_no_retrain_link); > > +DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0034, > > + quirk_no_bus_reset_and_no_retrain_link); > > +DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x003c, > > + quirk_no_bus_reset_and_no_retrain_link); > > +DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATHEROS, 0x0042, > > + quirk_no_bus_reset_and_no_retrain_link); > > + > > +static void quirk_no_bus_reset(struct pci_dev *dev) > > +{ > > + dev->dev_flags |= PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET; > > +} > > > > /* > > * Root port on some Cavium CN8xxx chips do not successfully complete a bus > > diff --git a/include/linux/pci.h b/include/linux/pci.h > > index 86c799c97b77..fdbf7254e4ab 100644 > > --- a/include/linux/pci.h > > +++ b/include/linux/pci.h > > @@ -227,6 +227,8 @@ enum pci_dev_flags { > > PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_FLR_RESET = (__force pci_dev_flags_t) (1 << 10), > > /* Don't use Relaxed Ordering for TLPs directed at this device */ > > PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RELAXED_ORDERING = (__force pci_dev_flags_t) (1 << 11), > > + /* Don't Retrain Link for device when bridge is not in GEN1 mode */ > > + PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RETRAIN_LINK_WHEN_NOT_GEN1 = (__force pci_dev_flags_t) (1 << 12), > > I know this is entangled with the existing PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET, > but unless there's a better reason to use pci_dev_flags, I'd prefer a > new "unsigned retrain_gen1:1" or similar bit. Ok! I can change patch... > Whatever you do, I'd like to avoid the double negative of "*no* > retrain when *not* gen1." Do you have a suggestion for this name? Because I do not know how to call this "quirk" in English, so it describes "disallow link retrain when link is not at gen1 = 2.5GT/s". Somehow I cannot imagine name without double negative words. > It does make me wonder whether the bus reset would work on these > devices if we set the target link speed back down to 2.5 GT/s. Tested and does not work. Secondary bus reset (=Hot Reset) is broken also when link is forced to 2.5 GT/s. It looks like that when PCI_EXP_LNKCTL2_TLS is not set to 2.5 GT/s when setting PCI_EXP_LNKCTL_RL it results in the same effect / issue like calling secondary bus reset. > > }; > > > > enum pci_irq_reroute_variant { > > -- > > 2.20.1 > >
