Subject: Adding support for Relaxed ordering on a non-root device
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2020 15:35:48 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1591274148-12230-1-git-send-email-ayal@mellanox.com> (raw)
Hi
I am writing to you regarding your commits titled:
1. a99b646afa8a PCI: Disable PCIe Relaxed Ordering if unsupported
2. 87e09cdec4da PCI: Disable Relaxed Ordering for some Intel processors
While adding support to relaxed ordering on Mellanox Ethernet driver I
tried to avoid the Intel's bug with pcie_relaxed_ordering_enabled.
Expecting this to return False on Haswell and Broadwell CPU. I run
this API on: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 v3 @ 2.30GHz (I think it is
a Haswell, right?) and the API returned True. What am I missing?
In addition, I saw your comment in pci_configure_relaxed_ordering
(pasted below) the non-root ports are not handled since Peer-to-Peer
DMA is another can of warms. Could you elaborate on the complexity?
What is the effort to extend this to non-root ports?
Thanks,
Aya
