Replying to an old thread..

I noticed pcie_has_flr() has been recently exported in upstream Linux:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=2d2917f7747805a1f4188672f308d82a8ba01700

Are there more changes / cleanups planned to these interfaces, as mentioned last year?

(context: xen-pciback reset/do_flr features upstreaming, which kind of stalled last year when pcie_has_flr() wasn't exported at the time)


Thanks,
