Hi Bjorn,

Please find the details from regarding delays from PCIe spec 3.0: 

1)  With a Downstream Port that does not support Link speeds greater than 5.0 GT/s, software
 must wait a minimum of 100 ms before sending a Configuration Request to the device
immediately below that Port.

2)  With a Downstream Port that supports Link speeds greater than 5.0 GT/s, software must
wait a minimum of 100 ms after Link training completes before sending a Configuration
Request to the device immediately below that Port. Software can determine when Link
training completes by polling the Data Link Layer Link Active bit or by setting up an
associated interrupt (see Section 6.7.3.3).

3) A system must guarantee that all components intended to be software visible at boot time
are ready to receive Configuration Requests within the applicable minimum period based on
the end of Conventional Reset at the Root Complex - how this is done is beyond the scope
of this specification.

4)  Note: Software should use 100 ms wait periods only if software enables CRS Software
Visibility. Otherwise, Completion timeouts, platform timeouts, or lengthy processor
instruction stalls may result. See the Configuration Request Retry Status Implementation
Note in Section 2.3.1.

The spec says we have to wait for 100ms before sending configuration request to the device. 
On older platforms like Skylake, PCIe was never suspended during S3 because Pcie was not on Vnn rail. Hence this delay never impacted S3 resume.

On newer platforms like Apollolake ,  PCIe IP is on Vnn rail. When PCIe root ports are suspended during S3,  100ms is in the critical path during PCIe root port resume . This delay impacts S3 kernel resume time by ~60ms.

Could you please provide your  suggestions on how to address this issue from PCIe Spec perspective?

Thanks and regards,
vaibhav
