[PATCH v2 0/4] PCI: rockchip: 5.0 GT/s speed may be dangerous
Posted by Geraldo Nascimento 2 weeks ago
Dragan Simic already had warned me of potential issues with 5.0 GT/s
speed operation in Rockchip PCIe. However, in recent interactions
with Shawn Lin from Rockchip it came to my attention there's grave
danger in the unknown errata regarding 5.0 GT/s operational speed
of their PCIe core. Even if the odds are low, to contain any damage,
let's cover the remaining corner-cases where the default would lead
to 5.0 GT/s operation as well as add a comment to Root Complex driver
core, documenting this danger. Furthermore, remove redundant
declaration of max-link-speed from rk3399-nanopi-r4s.dtsi

Changes in v2:
- hard limit to 2.5 GT/s, not just warn
- add Reported-by: and Reviewed-by: Dragan Simic
- remove redundant declaration of max-link-speed from helios64 dts
- fix Link: of helios64 patch
- simplify RC mode comment
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/aRhR79u5BPtRRFw3@geday/

Geraldo Nascimento (4):
  PCI: rockchip: limit RK3399 to 2.5 GT/s to prevent damage
  PCI: rockchip-host: comment danger of 5.0 GT/s speed
  arm64: dts: rockchip: remove dangerous max-link-speed from helios64
  arm64: dts: rockchip: remove redundant max-link-speed from nanopi-r4s
