      PCI/PCIe/AER: Disable native AER service if BIOS has precedence · b22c3d82
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      There is a design issue related to PCIe AER and _OSC that the BIOS
      may be asked to grant control of the AER service even if some
      Hardware Error Source Table (HEST) entries contain information
      meaning that the BIOS really should control it.  Namely,
      pcie_port_acpi_setup() calls pcie_aer_get_firmware_first() that
      determines whether or not the AER service should be controlled by
      the BIOS on the basis of the HEST information for the given PCIe
      port.  The BIOS is asked to grant control of the AER service for
      a PCIe Root Complex if pcie_aer_get_firmware_first() returns 'false'
      for at least one root port in that complex, even if all of the other
      root ports' HEST entries have the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set (and none
      of them has the GLOBAL flag set).  However, if the AER service is
      controlled by the kernel, that may interfere with the BIOS' handling
      of the error sources having the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag.  Moreover,
      there may be PCIe endpoints that have the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set in
      HEST and are attached to the root ports in question, in which case it
      also may be unsafe to ask the BIOS for control of the AER service.
      
      For this reason, introduce a function checking if there's at least
      one PCIe-related HEST entry with the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set and
      disable the native AER service altogether if this function returns
      'true'.

      PCI: PCIe: Ask BIOS for control of all native services at once · 28eb5f27
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      After commit 852972ac (ACPI: Disable
      ASPM if the platform won't provide _OSC control for PCIe) control of
      the PCIe Capability Structure is unconditionally requested by
      acpi_pci_root_add(), which in principle may cause problems to
      happen in two ways.  First, the BIOS may refuse to give control of
      the PCIe Capability Structure if it is not asked for any of the
      _OSC features depending on it at the same time.  Second, the BIOS may
      assume that control of the _OSC features depending on the PCIe
      Capability Structure will be requested in the future and may behave
      incorrectly if that doesn't happen.  For this reason, control of
      the PCIe Capability Structure should always be requested along with
      control of any other _OSC features that may depend on it (ie. PCIe
      native PME, PCIe native hot-plug, PCIe AER).
      
      Rework the PCIe port driver so that (1) it checks which native PCIe
      port services can be enabled, according to the BIOS, and (2) it
      requests control of all these services simultaneously.  In
      particular, this causes pcie_portdrv_probe() to fail if the BIOS
      refuses to grant control of the PCIe Capability Structure, which
      means that no native PCIe port services can be enabled for the PCIe
      Root Complex the given port belongs to.  If that happens, ASPM is
      disabled to avoid problems with mishandling it by the part of the
      PCIe hierarchy for which control of the PCIe Capability Structure
      has not been received.
      
      Make it possible to override this behavior using 'pcie_ports=native'
      (use the PCIe native services regardless of the BIOS response to the
      control request), or 'pcie_ports=compat' (do not use the PCIe native
      services at all).
      
      Accordingly, rework the existing PCIe port service drivers so that
      they don't request control of the services directly.
