I don't know the history of this, but maybe Rafael or the others can
shed some light on it.

Even if it did that, it wouldn't have been a full list almost for sure.
We had received multiple problem reports related to that, most likely
because the ACPI PM in BIOSes at that time was tailored for
system-wide PM transitions only.

The systems that had those problems 10 years ago would still have
them, but I expect there to be more systems where runtime PM can be
enabled by default for PCI devices without issues.

To follow up on this discussion:
We could call pm_runtime_forbid() conditionally, e.g. with the following
condition. This would enable runtime pm per default for all non-ACPI
systems, and it uses the BIOS date as an indicator for a hopefully
not that broken ACPI implementation. However I could understand the
argument that this looks a little hacky ..
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI) && dmi_get_bios_year() <= 2016)

Removing the recommendation in pci.txt and allowing runtime PM in more
drivers by default seems sensible to me. Such an incremental approach
is less risky with regards to regressions than a big hammer. Heiner,
care to submit patches to that effect?

dmi_get_bios_year() may not be a good indicator. Last time I used it
caused regression, because the value changed after BIOS update.
For example, my MacBook Pro is manufactured in 2011, but
dmi_get_bios_year() returns 2018 with latest BIOS.

Right, it's a weak indicator, and I'm aware of it. My thought is:
A massively broken ACPI implementation would have been fixed over
time if there are years between manufacturing date and last BIOS
update. Of course this doesn't have to be true ..
I just had a look at the ACPI spec and maybe we could use the ACPI
version information (major.minor) in the FADT table. E.g. we could
enable runtime pm from version 6.0. That should be reasonable new.
I'm open for any other proposals ..

As a proposal, maybe we can use the ACPI revision as an indicator for
whether ACPI implementation is new enough to not be affected by the old
problems. With the following simple patch runtime pm won't be disabled
per default for ACPI versions >= 6.0. AFAIK ACPI 6.0 was published in 2015.
On a side note:
It seems the sole motivation to disable runtime pm per default is ACPI
problems. So why do we disable runtime pm also on non-ACPI systems?
With the proposed patch runtime pm is enabled per default if
CONFIG_ACPI isn't defined.

Generic PCI code usually does not call ACPI-specific functions directly,
but rather through a pci_platform_pm_ops callback.
FWIW, if platform_pci_power_manageable() returns true, it can probably
be assumed that allowing runtime PM by default is okay. So as a first
step, you may want to call that instead of adding a new callback.
Thanks,
Lukas

I don't think that's sufficient. Most likely all the broken old systems
return true for platform_pci_power_manageable(). So yes, most likely
we'd need a new callback if we want to have the platform ops abstraction.
But it could be an optional callback, something like: forbid_runtime_pm
The question is just: is it worth it?
By the way: pci_set_platform_pm() returns an error if a callback isn't
set, but no existing caller bothers to check the return code.

platform_pci_power_manageable() is not a global flag, but rather
a per-device flag whether the platform is capable of power-managing
that device. E.g. for the ACPI platform, it indicates that objects
such as _PS0 or _PS3 are present in the device's namespace.
My point is that if the platform can power-manage a device,
then it ought to be safe to enable runtime PM by default for it.
If you insist on a "big hammer" approach by turning on runtime PM
by default for everything, you risk regressions. You can avoid
that by going for a smart approach which enables runtime PM in
cases when it's safe.

Not sure about that. Just that the BIOS claims it can power-manage
the device, doesn't rule out that it's broken and fails to do so.
