Subject: [PATCH] PCI: rockchip: Skip the Tpvperl wait when power is already valid
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 11:49:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911104952.4190994-1-ehbello@gmail.com> (raw)
Since commit c47f90be4c89 ("PCI: rockchip-host: Fix
rockchip_pcie_host_init_port() PERST# handling"), a JMicron JMB585
behind an rk3399 root port almost never becomes usable: the link trains
normally, but the endpoint's configuration space never answers, so the
device is not enumerated. On this controller a configuration read that
gets no usable completion is reported as an external abort rather than
as an all-ones response, which on arm64 brings the machine down.
The change added an unconditional 100 ms sleep so that PERST# stays
asserted for at least Tpvperl after power becomes valid. The wait is
performed while PERST# is asserted, so it also extends the reset by
100 ms, and this endpoint does not tolerate the longer assertion.
Tpvperl is counted from the supplies becoming valid (PCIe CEM r5.1,
sec 2.9.2). On boards whose PCIe supplies are always-on -- vcc3v3_pcie
on ROCK Pi 4 is regulator-always-on and regulator-boot-on -- power has
been valid since boot, seconds before the driver probes, so the
requirement is already met and the sleep only lengthens the reset.
Record whether the supplies were already enabled before the driver
enabled them, and skip the wait in that case. A supply that is already
on at probe was brought up either by the bootloader or by the regulator
core at boot, both of which precede a PCIe probe by far more than
Tpvperl. When the driver really does bring the rails up, or on resume
where vpcie0v9 has just been re-enabled, the full wait still happens,
as it does if regulator_is_enabled() cannot tell.
Measured on a ROCK Pi 4C with a Radxa Penta SATA HAT (JMB585) by
booting repeatedly and counting how often the endpoint enumerated:
unmodified .................................... 0 out of 84 boots
with this patch ............................... 3 out of 3 boots
other ways of dropping the same wait .......... 16 out of 16 boots
Fisher's exact test, pooling the last two rows against the first, gives
p = 4.1e-21. With the patch the endpoint enumerated on every boot and all
four disks behind it came up.
Each of the three PERST#-related changes that landed together in
v6.11-rc1 was also reverted individually; only removing this wait made
any difference. Moving the wait to before link training is enabled,
rather than removing it, did not help (0 out of 15 boots), which is
what identified the length of the PERST# assertion rather than any
interaction with link training as the cause.
The measurements were taken on 6.18, but the code in question is
unchanged between v6.11 and v7.2.
