Building a kernel with CONFIG_PCI_IMX6=y, but CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS=n
produces a system where built-in PCIE bridge (16c3:abcd) isn't bound
to pcieport driver. This, in turn, results in a PCIE bus that is
capable of enumerating attached PCIE device, but lacks functional
interrupt support.

Assuming this is a reasonable dependency, shold this be done to more
than just i.MX6 driver?

Robert, does that fix your issue?

This effectively disables PCIe in imx_v6_v7_defconfig, since
CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS is not enabled there. Maybe do 'select' instead?

This is odd. AFAIK PCI port services are a totally optional thing and
them being absent should not lead to a non-functional PCI bus. So I
would really like to see some deeper analysis what is going on here.

Unfortunately, no.. in fact the situation on my setup is even worse with
CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS enabled: Not only does MSI still not function, but
now INTx interrupts are somehow broken as well - no interrupts are
received. The IRQ information shown in /proc/interrupts is correct, but
the count remains stubbornly at 0.

So given that outcome, I don't think we should add this as a hard
dependency until we can figure out what is going on, as it seems to
regress working setups.

That's expected. The port services will use an MSI IRQ when available
and due to a design issue with the DWC PCIe it will not forward any
legacy IRQs if any MSI is in use. If any of the PCIe devices in your
system are unable to work with MSI IRQs, you must boot with "nomsi" on
the kernel command line set.

Lucas

That seems like an unfortunate design choice on their part.. well that
would probably argue against adding this as a hard dependency then, if
non-MSI-supporting PCIe devices can't work with default boot options
with that set.

I'm looking into testing with an NXP Smart Devices board and some PCIe
cards to see if I can verify whether MSI works on those or not, since we
currently don't have a way to independently verify that the MSI
implementation in our FPGA is working or whether another PCIe device
works with MSI (the FPGA is integrated on the system board).

I noticed this previously, 
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-pci/msg77840.html

What happened was that PCIEPORTBUS *was* selected by all the platform
dwc drivers and those selections were removed in:

commit f3fdfc4ac3a26865e84627a7fe08a906081e5abc
Author: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>
Date:   Fri May 18 15:08:36 2018 -0500

    PCI: Remove host driver Kconfig selection of CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS
    
    Host bridge drivers do not use the portdrv interfaces (struct pcie_device,
    struct pcie_port_service_driver, pcie_port_service_register(), etc), and
    they should not select CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS.

I encountered this when a kernel defconfig that previously turned on
PCIEPORTBUS stopped turning in on, resulting in the situation that
Andrey describes:  no errors, device present, but no MSI interrupts.

The in kernel defconfigs (mine not being one of those) for all the dwc
pcie users should probably be refreshed to enable pcieportbus.

It seems appropriate that the port services are optional and it's
unfortunate that the kernel defconfig system resolves in the change in
this manner, vs keeping pcieportbus on by default.  I do know why it is
this way and I don't think there is any great solution there.

It has never been clear to me why pcieportbus was necessary for MSI.

I've now done some tests with a NXP SabreSD reference board and an Intel
wireless card:

-With the standard imx_v6_v7 defconfig, MSI does not work, INTx works

-With CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS=y, MSI does work

So it seems like enabling PCIEPORTBUS should fix our MSI issue on the
CPU side, and our remaining problem is likely on the FPGA device side.
However, there's still the issue that enabling that option breaks INTx
support - I don't have a PCIe card handy that the kernel doesn't enable
MSI for in order to test that on the Sabre board, but based on Lucas's
comment and my results on our board, it definitely seems to be an issue.
I would hope there must be a way to handle that..

AFAICT, this is due to pcieport driver enabling MSI of the bridge
device (16c3:abcd) via pcie_port_device_register() ->
pcie_init_service_irqs() -> pcie_port_enable_irq_vec() -> etc.

I did an experiment on a i.MX8MQ/PCIE -> i210 setup I have: I disabled
CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS and hacked igb_main.c enough to make the i210
driver believe it should fall back onto legacy interrupts. Even
without pcieport present in the system, i210 worked as expected via
legacy interrupts, which seems to collaborate my conjecture above.

Thanks,

IIUC PCIEPORTBUS should not be needed for MSIs to work,
it is only needed if you want e.g. PME or AER.

The difference is that if PCIEPORTBUS is enabled, a MSI irq vector will be
allocated for the Root Complex itself, so that it can send an irq when
e.g. AER has detected an error.


If we disregard that MSI handling is currently broken on DWC PCIe:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=154214986924244&w=2
It is very possible to have MSIs on dragonboard 820c, which also
uses the DWC PCIe controller, without having PCIEPORTBUS selected:

# zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -E "PCIE_QCOM|PCIEPORTBUS"
# CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS is not set
CONFIG_PCIE_QCOM=y


# lspci -v -s 0000:00:00.0
0000:00:00.0 PCI bridge: Qualcomm Device 0104 (prog-if 00 [Normal decode])
	...
        Capabilities: [50] MSI: Enable- Count=1/32 Maskable+ 64bit+

	...
        Capabilities: [50] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/8 Maskable+ 64bit-


# cat /proc/interrupts | grep MSI

So perhaps this is a bug specific to imx6?


Kind regards,
Niklas

Yeah, that seems entirely plausible. I reached out to NXP via one of
the support channels to clarify. I'll report if I hear back from them.
