PCIe with PCIe Switch PI7C9X2G303EL or PLX8603 with 3.10.17_1.0.0_ga

Rodrigue — Fri, 06 Jun 2014 12:52:50 GMT

Hi Folks,

Did you ever test a PCie Switch with our latest 3.10.17?

It seems that our PCIe driver does not support the Interrupt routing from the Switch.

It seems it supports only 1 IT (INTA) coming from only 1 Device.

But the 3 others INTB/INTC/INTD) are not correctly routed, but would be very helpful for a switch with many PCie Device.

Message Signal Interrupts (MSI) are also not supported.

Can someone tell me if the PCIe code was fully tested?

Does someone know a customer that used successfully a PCIe Switch (like PI7C9X2G303EL-EVB) on 3.10.17

Is there some Patches already under Test to support this?

Best regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Rodrigue

Hello richard.zhu,

I do not have one switch in my hand, can you help on this and share the information to us? Thanks!

One pericom switch had been tested on imx3.10.17 1.0 ga release.

Subject: [PATCH] ENGR00288406 pcie: imx: enable pcie switch support

Fix the pcie switch no detection issue

Root cause why the switch can't be detected before:

* The initialization sequence is not properly, 100ms reset

should be just issue before ltssm enable.

* Lagency INTx mapping is wrong

* remove un-correct IO/MEM iATU outbound mapping.

Hi Richard,

Ok, detection is working.

But did you check with many PCIe Devices? Is it really possible to connect several of them on the Pericom PCIe Switch?

Best regards,

Rodrigue

Hi - I suspect I had a related problem. I was running the 3.0.35 kernel for our board that uses a intel 82574 NIC off the PCIe and was working OK. I've been ported our bsp up to 3.10.17 (via the freescale community BSP / Yocto daisy release) and it won't work now. The e1000e driver looks like it's talking to the hardware but won't run. It turns out that in 3.10.17 somehow the pci kconfig has lost the include for pcie :

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/tree/drivers/pci/Kconfig?h=imx_3.10.17_1.0.0_ga

so CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS can never be set. (this looks to be the way in 3.10.31_1.1.0_alpha too) After I patched this my NIC started working with MSI interrupts etc... Could this be your problem too? Trivial patch shown below :

Yes, As I remember that I connect two devices(one is e1000 nic, the other one is xhci device) to the pericom pcie switch.

Hi Zhu,

we are also facing the same issue which reported in this thread. As per your suggestion how to correct the legacy interrupt mapping and how to remove un correct IO/MEMiATU outbound mapping. In our target we are using linux kernel 3.0.35, we unable to find the suggested files(driver/pci/host/pci-imx6.c and driver/pci/host/pcie-designware.c) in our linux kernel source (3.0.35). if you have any patch to solve this issue, can you please share it.

Seeking your help eagerly to solve the issue.

Regards

Bala

Hi:
Unfortunately, there is no such kind patch for p2041, because that p2041 is not ever verified.

Regarding to the log, I don't know what's happen in your tests.

You should debug into the codes if you want to figure out the root cause of that failure.

Richard.

Dear Richard,

Do you have any patch file for p2041 devices to handle INTB/INTC/INTD.

Thanks,

Vidya

Hi Vidya:

Sorry, I don't have one patch file for p2041 devices.

The patch " ENGR00288406 pcie: imx: enable pcie switch support " is used to handle the INTB/C/D, and verified on one Pericom's pcie switch.

Dear Richard,

" ENGR00288406 pcie: imx: enable pcie switch support " for arm platform, does not support powerpc.

Please confirm, is this a kernel bug, any plan to fix this bug many people are facing same issue.
