PCIe Mini linkup fail issue

[zhaocq]

Dear NXP,

Under linux  Linux version 3.0.35_B01_V1.0, a imx6q-like board is connected to a PCIE-mini interface wlan RTL8192EE. Checked the differential clock is about 100MHz, the power and reset is supplied. Pcie has been configurated like that:

[    6.457696] iMX6 PCIe PCIe RC mode imx_pcie_pltfm_probe entering.
[    6.464063] _clk_pcie_enable!!
[    6.467207] PCIE: imx_pcie_pltfm_probe card_reset.
[    6.578918] PCIE: imx_pcie_pltfm_probe start link up.
[    6.584062] PCIE: imx_pcie_pltfm_probe add_pcie_port.
[    7.195101] link up failed, DB_R0:0x00ea5800, DB_R1:0x08200000!
[    7.201138] IMX PCIe port: link down with power supply 1!

I tested the PCIE_TXP/PCIE_TXN pin signal waveform, as the attached file pcie.jpg. The amplitude peak is 400mV.

Is this waveform correct ?Could you give us some advise about this issue?

Best Regards!

Hi igor,

Thanks for your reply first.

I have updated to  later Linux version 4.1.15, just add the pci config to imx_v7_android_defconfig.
on the load stage, i use dmesg grep pcie ,also can see the below info:

130|root@sabresd_6dq:/ # dmesg |grep -rin "pci"
(standard input):80:[    0.186674] !!request miniPCIE Power On gpio

Hi cuiqin

Linux version 3.0.35 is very old version and since then very much improvements

were implemented in pcie driver, one can try latest Linux L4.9.88 pcie driver

which is working fine: linux/drivers/pci/host/pci-imx6.c and port changes to old version:

pci-imx6.c\host\pci\drivers - linux-imx - i.MX Linux kernel 

Best regards
igor
