Hm... a QCOM EP device could be attached to any of the PCIe RC drivers that
we have in the kernel, so it seems a bit weird to fix this problem by
patching the QCOM RC driver only.

Which DBI call is it that causes this problem during perst assert on EP side?

I assume that it is pci-epf-test:deinit() callback that calls
pci_epc_clear_bar(), which calls dw_pcie_ep_clear_bar(), which will both:
-clear local data structures, e.g.
ep->epf_bar[bar] = NULL;
ep->bar_to_atu[bar] = 0;

but also call:
__dw_pcie_ep_reset_bar()
dw_pcie_disable_atu()


Do we perhaps need to redesign the .deinit EPF callback?

Considering that we know that .deinit() will only be called on platforms
where there will be a fundamental core reset, I guess we could do something
like introduce a __dw_pcie_ep_clear_bar() which will only clear the local
data structures. (It might not need to do any DBI writes, since the
fundamental core reset should have reset all values.)

Or perhaps instead of letting pci_epf_test_epc_deinit() call
pci_epf_test_clear_bar()/__pci_epf_test_clear_bar() directly, perhaps let
pci_epf_test_epc_deinit() call add a .deinit()/.cleanup() defined in the
EPC driver.

This EPC .deinit()/.cleanup() callback would then only clear the
local data structures (no DBI writes...).

Something like that?
