Subject: [PATCH] PCI: Increase VPD access timeout
Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2016 12:00:40 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1480442440-11540-1-git-send-email-mrochs@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
The PCI core uses a fixed 50ms timeout when waiting for VPD accesses to
complete. When an access does not complete within this period, a warning
is logged and an error returned to the caller.
While this default timeout is valid for most hardware, some devices can
experience longer access delays under certain circumstances. For example,
one of the IBM CXL Flash devices can take up to ~120ms in a worst-case
scenario. These types of devices can benefit from an extended timeout.
To support devices with a longer access delay, increase the timeout in
pci_vpd_wait() to 125ms. The PCI specification is silent with respect to
VPD delays, therefore there is no concern for violating a threshold.
