IMX6 PCIe Problem

valentinafernan — Wed, 19 Aug 2015 19:27:23 GMT

Hi,

We are facing a problem enabling PCIe support on a custom imx6 board. There's a marvel 88W8897 chip connected to the PCIe bus on the custom board.

However the following errors are displayed at boot:

imx6q-pcie 1ffc000.pcie: phy link never came up

imx6q-pcie 1ffc000.pcie: Failed to bring link up!

imx6q-pcie 1ffc000.pcie: failed to initialize host

imx6q-pcie: probe of 1ffc000.pcie failed with error -22

We are using linux imx kernel version 3.14.28.

The following are our defconfig and device tree source files

What could be the reason for this problem?

Thanks

Hi Valentina

one can try suggestions given on below (in particular adding longer udelay(100))

Re: Has anyone verified PCI driver on yocto 3.14.28-1.0.1 branch?

also had you tried other PCIe cards? Please try to test with official Freescale BSP

from i.MX6Q product page :

Board Support Packages (27)

L3.14.28_1.0.0_iMX6QDLS_BUNDLE (REV L3.14.28_1.0.0)

i.MX 6Quad, i.MX 6Dual, i.MX 6DualLite, i.MX 6Solo Linux Binary Demo Files and Linux BSP Documentation

Best regards

Hey Valentina,

Did you ever figure out a solution for this. We too are connecting to an 88W8897. While most of the time our link works, sometimes we get PHY LINK NEVER CAME UP

Hi George,

We figured out a solution for this. If you still have PCIE problems, you can apply the following patch:

Dear Valentina,

Hi, to get the phy link up and running did you also have to change the device tree entry (IRQ related entries) and configuration macros like 'CONFIG_PCI_MSI' in .conf apart from the timing issue you've stated here ?

thanks in advance
