When I am booted up with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI=n and pcie_aspm=off I tested what
happens with several cards. Note that this scenario causes "Unable to request _OSC
control" below and functionally disables my ExpressCard slot:

- Command line: root=/dev/sda5 pciehp.pciehp_debug=1 console=ttyUSB0,115200n8 console=tty0 log_buf_len=409600
+ Command line: root=/dev/sda5 pciehp.pciehp_debug=1 console=ttyUSB0,115200n8 console=tty0 log_buf_len=409600 pcie_aspm=off

-pci0000:00: Requesting ACPI _OSC control (0x1d)   
-pci0000:00: ACPI _OSC control (0x19) granted   
+pci0000:00: Unable to request _OSC control (_OSC support mask:

The express card works although no driver can pickup and therefore nothing was ever logged
through syslog if I plugged in the card,. Still, I could read the lspci output and compare values.

The "PresDet-" on Changed: line does not change but the one on SltSta: line does!
Is that because of the fresh bootup and no previous value to compare with?
No, it never changes even on all below diff outputs. But could Linux cache
the value itself to correct for that?

In the below difference, why is there the MAbort+? Is that because
I did not manage to fit in the card so that in was actually unplugged
(no diff between 6_inserted_Ev*.txt and 7_popped_out_Evolve*.txt files
explained below)?

OK, so the card was really out in bot cases. But then it means that
the "diff -u -w 5_unplugged_DeLock_unrecognized.txt 6_inserted_Evolve_SpeedCard_HC-303SCX_with_NEC_uPD720200_rev3.txt"
shows the changed to an empty expresscard slot state when Delock was out and after NEC was out). That is why the
PresDet does not appear on a changed line. So, what are those other differences?



Further continuing the comparison, so below I compared the empty slot state (7_popped_out*.txt) with successfull insertion
of the NEC card. Indeed, it has the PresDet changed correctly from "-" to "+".

Yeah, it really slipped out at that moment.

#

Good, no diff.

Good, empty slot is always in same state.

Also when I swap the vendor of the USB3.0 card.

#

So, empty slot ends up in a different state when I remove DeLock 61386 providin 2x eSATA ports.
It has 2 LEDs to signal data transfer. Both NEC-based cards have optional 5V/2A power input.
Only the one from Zalman has a power-on light (or in-slot?).



I followed up now with a FireWire Card which unplug was always detected. If I compare state of empty
card slot I get again a difference betwee the state left out after NEC-based card and this FireWire card.

Hmm, is the above difference caused by the fact the errors were left in because meanwhile I was using the NEC-based cards?

Seems so, even comparing with the state after DeLock removal there is still some difference left.



When I go and comapre states when a card was inserted I see only two differences, likely caused
by using the NEC-based cards some while ago.

So, does the card detection work? Yes, it does, like always. :-)

Next, with the below comparison I think I just document that in the some time between
using the DeLock card and the FireWire card there were MAbort+ and CorrErr+ set (caused
by the NEC).

Finally, comparing states when NEC-based and FireWire card were in the slot. I think this is
interesting.

I would get same difference against teh other NEC-based card but so save output I rather show
that when the card is in a slot it is in same state.

First, if hardware does not report Changed PresDet+ and always says "PresDet-" linux could
keep do the comparisons on its own. Second, why does the NEC-chip "ignore?" the pcie_aspm=off
and mangles with the LnkCtl: ASPM? Unlike DeLock eSATA and Axago FireWire cards?
Or, does it make sense at all? ;-)

All of this was with plain 3.4-rc5.
Thanks,
Martin
