There\n should be a PCI root port between the root complex and the endpoint\n (see [1]).\n\n- since CONFIG_PCI_DYNAMIC_OF_NODES can be dropped in the future\n becoming an automatically enabled feature, it would be wise to not\n depend on it (see [2]).\n\n- overlay support has led to a lot of confusion. It's not really usable \n right now and users are not even used to it (see [3]).\n\nThis patch aims at solving the aforementioned problems by amending the\nPCI topology as follows:\n\n ...\n pcie@1000120000 {\n ...\n\n pci@0,0 {\n device_type = \"pci\";\n reg = <0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00>;\n ...\n\n dev@0,0 {\n compatible = \"pci1de4,1\";\n reg = <0x10000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00>;\n ...\n\n pci-ep-bus@1 {\n compatible = \"simple-bus\";\n ...\n\n /* peripherals child nodes */\n }; \n }; \n }; \n }; \n\nThe reg property is important since it permits the binding the OF\ndevice_node structure to the pci_dev, encoding the BDF in the upper\nportion of the address.\n\nThis patch also drops the overlay support in favor of the fully\ndescribed DT while streamlining it as a result.\n\nLinks:\n[1] - https://lore.kernel.org/all/aTvz_OeVnciiqATz@apocalypse/\n[2] - https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAL_JsqJUzB71QdMcxJtNZ7raoPcK+SfTh7EVzGmk=syo8xLKQw@mail.gmail.com/\n[3] - https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAL_JsqJUzB71QdMcxJtNZ7raoPcK+SfTh7EVzGmk=syo8xLKQw@mail.gmail.com/\n\nAndrea della Porta (4):\n dt-bindings: misc: pci1de4,1: add required reg property for endpoint\n misc: rp1: drop overlay support\n arm64: dts: broadcom: bcm2712: fix RP1 endpoint PCI topology\n arm64: dts: broadcom: rp1: drop RP1 overlay\n\n .../devicetree/bindings/misc/pci1de4,1.yaml | 8 +++-\n arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/Makefile | 4 +-\n ...-ovl-rp1.dts => bcm2712-rpi-5-b-base.dtsi} | 0\n .../boot/dts/broadcom/bcm2712-rpi-5-b.dts | 39 ++++++++++++-------\n arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/rp1-nexus.dtsi | 14 -------\n arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/rp1.dtso | 11 ------\n drivers/misc/rp1/Kconfig | 6 +--\n drivers/misc/rp1/Makefile | 3 +-\n drivers/misc/rp1/rp1-pci.dtso | 25 ------------\n drivers/misc/rp1/rp1_pci.c | 37 ++----------------\n drivers/pci/quirks.c | 1 -\n 11 files changed, 40 insertions(+), 108 deletions(-)\n rename arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/{bcm2712-rpi-5-b-ovl-rp1.dts => bcm2712-rpi-5-b-base.dtsi} (100%)\n delete mode 100644 arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/rp1-nexus.dtsi\n delete mode 100644 arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/rp1.dtso\n delete mode 100644 drivers/misc/rp1/rp1-pci.dtso" }
