Hello Bjorn,

Again, reviving this very old thread :-)

The original code for xilinx/designware/altera was doing:

 	if (bus->number == port->root_busno && devfn > 0)
 		return false;
 
	if (bus->primary == port->root_busno && devfn > 0)
		return false;

I.e, it was checking both if bus->number *and* bus->primary were equal
to port->root_busno.

The commit you points removed the check on bus->primary, keeping the
check on bus->number.

Your patch for the Aadvark driver only adds a check on bus->number, i.e
exactly what the xilinx/designware/altera code is still doing today:

Altera:

        /* access only one slot on each root port */
        if (bus->number == pcie->root_bus_nr && dev > 0)
                return false;

Designware:

        /* access only one slot on each root port */
        if (bus->number == pp->root_bus_nr && dev > 0)
                return 0;

Xilinx:

        /* Only one device down on each root port */
        if (bus->number == port->root_busno && devfn > 0)
                return false;

Aardvark (with our patch):

        if ((bus->number == pcie->root_bus_nr) && (PCI_SLOT(devfn) != 0)) {
                *val = 0xffffffff;
                return PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND;
        }

So we're doing exactly the same thing.

Do you agree ?

Best regards,

Thomas Petazzoni
