Subject: [PATCH v9 14/14] PCI: Work around PCIe link training failures
Attempt to handle cases such as with a downstream port of the ASMedia
ASM2824 PCIe switch where link training never completes and the link
continues switching between speeds indefinitely with the data link layer
never reaching the active state.
It has been observed with a downstream port of the ASMedia ASM2824 Gen 3
switch wired to the upstream port of the Pericom PI7C9X2G304 Gen 2
switch, using a Delock Riser Card PCI Express x1 > 2 x PCIe x1 device,
P/N 41433, wired to a SiFive HiFive Unmatched board. In this setup the
switches are supposed to negotiate the link speed of preferably 5.0GT/s,
falling back to 2.5GT/s.
Instead the link continues oscillating between the two speeds, at the
rate of 34-35 times per second, with link training reported repeatedly
active ~84% of the time. Forcibly limiting the target link speed to
2.5GT/s with the upstream ASM2824 device however makes the two switches
communicate correctly. Removing the speed restriction afterwards makes
the two devices switch to 5.0GT/s then.
Make use of these observations then and detect the inability to train
the link, by checking for the Data Link Layer Link Active status bit
being off while the Link Bandwidth Management Status indicating that
hardware has changed the link speed or width in an attempt to correct
unreliable link operation.
Restrict the speed to 2.5GT/s then with the Target Link Speed field,
request a retrain and wait 200ms for the data link to go up. If this
turns out successful, then lift the restriction, letting the devices
negotiate a higher speed.
Also check for a 2.5GT/s speed restriction the firmware may have already
arranged and lift it too with ports of devices known to continue working
afterwards, currently the ASM2824 only, that already report their data
link being up.

Changes from v8:
- Rename `pcie_downstream_link_retrain' to `pcie_failed_link_retrain', add
a prototype in "pci.h", moving the stub implementation under !PCI_QUIRKS
umbrella.
- Move back to quirks.c, though as an internal API call rather than a
regular quirk.
- Adjust for PCIE_LINK_RETRAIN_TIMEOUT_MS expressed in milliseconds rather
than jiffies.
- Use a `pcie_retrain_link' call rather than retraining inline, and also
use it in the restriction lift path, making it another possible failure
point.
No changes from v7.
Changes from v6:
- Regenerate against 6.3-rc5.
- Shorten the lore.kernel.org archive link in the change description.
Changes from v5:
- Move from a quirk into PCI core and call at device probing, hot-plug,
reset and resume. Keep the ASMedia part under CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS.
- Rely on `dev->link_active_reporting' rather than re-retrieving the
capability.
Changes from v4:
- Remove <linux/bug.h> inclusion no longer needed.
- Make the quirk generic based on probing device features rather than
specific to the ASM2824 part only; take the Retrain Link bit erratum
into account.
- Still lift the 2.5GT/s speed restriction with the ASM2824 only.
- Increase retrain timeout from 200ms to 1s (PCIE_LINK_RETRAIN_TIMEOUT).
- Remove retrain success notification.
- Use PCIe helpers rather than generic PCI functions throughout.
- Trim down and update the wording of the change description for the
switch from an ASM2824-specific to a generic fixup.
Changes from v3:
- Remove the <linux/pci_ids.h> entry for the ASM2824.
Changes from v2:
- Regenerate for 5.17-rc2 for a merge conflict.
- Replace BUG_ON for a missing PCI Express capability with WARN_ON and an
early return.
Changes from v1:
- Regenerate for a merge conflict.

+ * each other correctly however. And more interestingly retraining with a
+ * higher target link speed afterwards lets the two successfully negotiate
+ * 5.0GT/s.
+ *
+ * With the ASM2824 we can rely on the otherwise optional Data Link Layer
+ * Link Active status bit and in the failed link training scenario it will
+ * be off along with the Link Bandwidth Management Status indicating that
+ * hardware has changed the link speed or width in an attempt to correct

+ * both bits will be clear. So use this information to detect the problem
+ * rather than polling the Link Training bit and watching out for flips or
+ * at least the active status.
+ *
+ * Since the exact nature of the problem isn't known and in principle this
+ * could trigger where an ASM2824 device is downstream rather upstream,
+ * apply this erratum workaround to any downstream ports as long as they

+ * Restrict the speed to 2.5GT/s then with the Target Link Speed field,
+ * request a retrain and wait 200ms for the data link to go up.
+ *
+ * If this turns out successful and we know by the Vendor:Device ID it is
