Normally, relaxed ordering is used only when an endpoint sets the
"Relaxed Ordering" attribute bit in a TLP.  The endpoint is only
allowed to do that if relaxed ordering is enabled in the Device
Control register.

If I understand correctly, this sysfs knob would let you configure the
iProc RC so it handles *all* TLPs (or just those in certain address
ranges) with relaxed ordering, regardless of whether the endpoint has
relaxed ordering, or even whether it supports relaxed ordering at all.

My gut feeling is that this is a messy hack, and if you want the
performance benefits of relaxed ordering, you should just choose an
NVMe endpoint that supports it correctly.

I assume the iProc RC does actually have the smarts to pay attention
to the Relaxed Ordering bit in TLPs if the endpoint sets it?

Relaxed ordering support is optional for *every* PCIe endpoint, not
just NVMe.  If an endpoint doesn't support relaxed ordering at all, it
should hardwire the Enable Relaxed Ordering bit to zero.
