[U-Boot] FSL PCIe LTSSM >= PCI_LTSSM_L0 equals link up

FSL PCIe controller drivers before REV 3 has this test for link up: enabled = ltssm >= PCI_LTSSM_L0;
We have a PCIe dev. that stays in LTSSM=0x51 (Polling Compliance) when non ready for PCI transaktions. When FSL PCIe controller tries to access this device, it hangs forever.
Is LTSSM=0x51 really a "legal" state for link up? If not, what is a suitable range(maybe LO <= ltssm <= L0s(0x27)) ?
Jocke
BTW, the same test is valid in Linux too.

It mentions polling compliance but this driver already tests for: if (ltssm < LTSSM_PCIE_L0) return 0; return 1;
It just adds some delay if the device is in Polling Compliance to see if that changes to L0. Since both layerscape and fsl >= rev 3 already require ltssm to be == L0, I suspect the ltssm >= L0 is bogus.

Hi York,
- if (ltssm == LTSSM_PCIE_DETECT_QUIET ||
ltssm == LTSSM_PCIE_DETECT_ACTIVE) {
When the pcie slot have no device, the pcie controller access this register return LTSSM_PCIE_DETECT_QUIET or LTSSM_PCIE_DETECT_ACTIVE state, In order to avoid unnecessary delay, return directly.
Reference the spec, except L0 state, the L0s L1 L2state can consider the link state, but these state regards the power management, our pcie driver have not power management code in uboot, so just need to judge the L0 state.
Thanks

Hi,
This solution is got by discuss with minghuan and zhiqiang, according to the customer's response to this problem in the uboot period, when the kernel will not exist after the start of the problem. Because if the uboot scan the pcie device, the kernel also find this device.
Thanks

But this does not solve my problem and the solution is only for layerscape ATM. I am asking FSL PCI guys if we could just rewrite the old ltssm >= L0 test to something more sane that will work for me and the rest of FSL u-boot/linux users.

Hi Joakim,
I think this can work for layerscape platform. The layerscape platform and the powerpc platform have different pcie core, and also the LTSSM reg is not same, the pcie controller driver is different in uboot or kernel, this solution is used for layerscape platform.

Hi,
The attached is the powerpc platform patch. I have done but not submit. I am not sure what to do with FSL, i will discuss with zhiqiang and minghuan, and replay to you tomorrow. Because the powerpc platform is not maintain, so I don't know if need a patch.

It mentions polling compliance but this driver already tests for: if (ltssm < LTSSM_PCIE_L0) return 0; return 1;
It just adds some delay if the device is in Polling Compliance to see if that changes to L0. Since both layerscape and fsl >= rev 3 already require ltssm to be == L0, I suspect the ltssm >= L0 is bogus.
Xiaowei, can you comment?

We have a PCIe dev. that stays in LTSSM=0x51 (Polling Compliance) when non ready for PCI transaktions. When FSL PCIe controller tries to access this device, it hangs forever.
Is LTSSM=0x51 really a "legal" state for link up? If not, what is a suitable range(maybe LO <= ltssm <= L0s(0x27)) ?

BTW, the same test is valid in Linux too.
Jocke,
I am not an expert on PCIe. Please if this thread is helpful,

LTSSM should be L0 state for linkup. Xiaowei have the patch to modify the code for layerscape platform: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/801519/
He will work out a patch for PowerPC platform also.
