[PATCH v3] PCI: imx6: Keep i.MX6Q Root Port MSI capability with iMSI-RX to work around hardware bug
Posted by hongxing.zhu@oss.nxp.com 1 week, 1 day ago
From: Soeren Moch <smoch@web.de>

On some NXP chipsets, disabling Root Port MSI/MSI-X Capabilities blocks
MSIs originating from Endpoints from reaching the iMSI-RX controller.

To address this hardware bug, commit 3a4e8302e72f ("PCI: imx6: Keep Root
Port MSI capability with iMSI-RX to work around hardware bug") preserves
Root Port MSI and MSI-X Capabilities on i.MX7D, i.MX8MM, and i.MX8MQ
when iMSI-RX is in use.

The same applies to i.MX6Q, i.MX6QP and i.MX6SX. So preserve Root Port
MSI/MSI-X Capabilities there as well.

Note that preserving these Capabilities means Root Port-originated MSIs
such as AER and PME won't be received due to separate hardware limitations.
Users may need to use workarounds such as passing the 'pcie_pme=nomsi'
command-line parameter.

Fixes: f5cd8a929c825 ("PCI: dwc: Remove MSI/MSIX capability for Root Port if iMSI-RX is used as MSI controller")

changes in v3:
- Extend the fix to i.MX6QP and i.MX6SX variants as well.
- Update the commit descriptions suggested by Bjorn.

changes in v2:
- collect a-b and r-b tags
- use correct fixes tag (Manivannan)
  (reference commit that introduced the bug, not the incomplete fix)

Thanks Richard for checking 6QP and 6SX platforms and extending the fix 
for them.
