This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled nvme-pci: Fix the instructions for disabling power management to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: nvme-pci-fix-the-instructions-for-disabling-power-ma.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit fa1ae47156f90d304bfebc8a8e98486ab5aafc9b Author: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jul 11 15:59:52 2024 -0700 nvme-pci: Fix the instructions for disabling power management [ Upstream commit 92fc2c469eb26060384e9b2cd4cb0cc228aba582 ] pcie_aspm=off tells the kernel not to modify the ASPM configuration. This setting does not guarantee that ASPM (Active State Power Management) is disabled. Hence add pcie_port_pm=off. This disables power management for all PCIe ports. This patch has been tested on a workstation with a Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus NVMe SSD.
