[U-Boot] PPC 405EX hangs waiting for PCIE to reset
We have a board with an AMCC PPC 405EX connected to two fpga's with PCIE interfaces.
On some boards, on power up, the u-boot code hangs in the while loop in the following code waiting for PCIE1 to come out of reset. PCIE0 comes out of reset successfully.
The PHYSTA for PCIE1 always reads back with the value 0x30000000, indicating the the interface is in the P2 state and that the PLL has not locked.
If a timeout is added and U-boot is allowed to proceed, a machine check is eventually taken and the processor reboots. During the reboot, u-boot runs through the same code but this time both PCIE interfaces successfully come out of reset and the board comes up normally.
Any suggestions about what might be happening here?
Thanks
David Thomas.

Did you try setting the "pcidelay" environment variable. This will delay initializing the PCI(e) interfaces for n milliseconds. Try setting it to 3000 (3 seconds) to see if this helps. Please note that you need to set CONFIG_PCI_BOOTDELAY in your board config header to enable this "feature".
Cheers, Stefan
