[PATCH resend] ASPM: Fix pcie devices with non-pcie children

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

Since 3.2.12 and 3.3, some systems are failing to boot with a BUG_ON.
Some other systems using the pata_jmicron driver fail to boot because
no disks are detected.  Passing pcie_aspm=force on the kernel command
line works around it.

The cause: commit 4949be16822e ("PCI: ignore pre-1.1 ASPM quirking
when ASPM is disabled") changed the behaviour of
pcie_aspm_sanity_check() to always return 0 if aspm is disabled, in
order to avoid cases where we changed ASPM state on pre-PCIe 1.1
devices.  This skipped the secondary function of
pcie_aspm_sanity_check which was to avoid us enabling ASPM on devices
that had non-PCIe children, causing trouble later on.  Move the
aspm_disabled check so we continue to honour that scenario.

Hi Andrew,

This patch only appeared a couple of days ago[1], but it fixes a
noticeable regression so I would like to make sure the patch becomes
part of mainline and the 3.2.y- and 3.3.y-stable trees soon.  Could
you pick it up for linux-next until it makes its way to the PCI tree?

Regression was introduced between 3.3-rc7 and 3.3 and between 3.2.11
and 3.2.12.  Prevents boot on affected machines, though there is a
workaround.  Details about the symptoms and fix are above.

Thanks,
Jonathan
