Subject: hfi1 use of PCI internals
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2016 11:20:52 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160616162052.GA2144@localhost> (raw)
I noticed drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1 got moved from staging to
drivers/ for v4.7. It does a bunch of grubbing around in PCIe ASPM
configuration, e.g., see drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/aspm.h.
I know there have been lots of ASPM issues, both hardware problems and
Linux kernel problems, but it is *supposed* to be manageable by the
core, without special driver support. What's the justification for
having to do this in the hfi1 driver?
Bjorn
