Hi Jim, Jim Quinlan <james.quinlan@broadcom.com> (2023-06-23): > v6 -- No code has been changed. > -- Changed commit subject and comment in "#PERST" commit (Bjorn, Cyril) > -- Changed sign-off and author email address for all commits. > This was due to a change in Broadcom's upstreaming policy. I've just run some more tests to be on the safe side, and I can confirm everything is still looking good with the updated series and the updated base commit. Test setup: ----------- - using a $CM with the 20230111 EEPROM - on the same CM4 IO Board - with a $PCIE board (PCIe to multiple USB ports) - and the same Samsung USB flash drive. where $CM is one of: - CM4 Lite Rev 1.0 - CM4 8/32 Rev 1.0 - CM4 4/32 Rev 1.1 and $PCIE is one of: - SupaHub PCE6U1C-R02, VER 006 - SupaHub PCE6U1C-R02, VER 006S Results: -------- 1. With an unpatched kernel, I'm getting the dreaded Serror for all $CM/$PCIE combinations. That's reproducible with: - the 6.1.y kernel shipped in Debian 12; - a locally-built v6.4-rc7-194-g8a28a0b6f1a1d kernel. 2. With a patched kernel (v6.4-rc7-194-g8a28a0b6f1a1d + this series), for all $CM/$PCIE combinations, I'm getting a system that boots, sees the flash drive, and gives decent read performance on the USB flash drive (200+ MB/s on the CM4 Lite, 220+ MB/s on the non-Lite versions). In passing, since that looks like it could be merged finally: I suppose it's fair to say this series adds support for hardware that wasn't working before, which means it's not a candidate for inclusion via stable@ (even if it gets rid of a nasty failure to boot depending on what hardware is plugged in at that time)? In other words, downstream distributions should be expected to either adjust their build systems to pick some future Linux release or consider backporting this series on their own, to each base Linux version they support? Thanks again for all the help figuring this out. Cheers,

Hello Lorenzo, This patch-set has been stable for months, V5 was out early May and the V6 changes did not involve code. I'm a little surprised that you are voicing concern at this stage. The previous discussions covered all aspects of these commits AFAICT. Please review them and the commit messages and let me know what issues you do not understand or any topics that were not considered. Are you concerned about the Broadcom STB/CM community or the RPi community? For the former, I have direct communication w/ our customers and none of them are even close to using upstream (they may backport my commits). For the latter, I have tested these commits on the official RPi4 and CM4 IO platforms, and Cyril has also put in an admiral amount of testing. Note that I have on my desk a CM4 IO board w/ a conventional PCIe device, and it does not boot upstream master Linux until these patches are applied. Further, Raspian OS has already introduced the "brcm,enable-l1ss" property but did not upstream it, and my commits are backwards compatible with this. > > > PCI: brcmstb: Set higher value for internal bus timeout > > PCI: brcmstb: Assert PERST# on BCM2711 > > PCI: brcmstb: Remove stale comment > > Is it OK to apply these three on their own ?

Well, they are related for one customer who wants to use L1SS power savings AND require a long period for the internal timeout. But, yes, these commits are fine to apply independently.

I disagree with the reasoning behind "brcm,enable-l1ss" property usage instead of a command line option - at least I would like to get a comment from DT maintainers about it. I think Bjorn made the point consistently and I also think he is right. I would like to get Rob's opinion on this. I know he acked the DT bindings (I have a comment on those too) but regardless, it is clearly a property used for what is a command line configuration parameter, no two ways about it.
