Subject: [PATCH 0/5] Add support for Axis, ARTPEC-8 PCIe driver

This series patches include newly PCIe support for Axis ARTPEC-8 SoC.
ARTPEC-8 is the SoC platform of Axis Communications.
PCIe controller driver and phy driver have been newly added.
There is also a new MAINTAINER in the addition of phy driver.
PCIe controller is designed based on Design-Ware PCIe controller IP
and PCIe phy is desinged based on SAMSUNG PHY IP.
It also includes modifications to the Design-Ware controller driver to
run the 64bit-based ARTPEC-8 PCIe controller driver.
It consists of 6 patches in total.

This series has been tested on AXIS SW bring-up board
with ARTPEC-8 chipset.

The first sending was HTML. Second was broken text, so still not working.

Recently I always saw such answers and sometimes it was true, sometimes
not. What is exactly different?

You keep repeating the same over and over. What is different? Drivers
can support different devices, I already wrote it. Just because device
is different does not mean it should have separate driver.

That's hardly a problem...

No, I cannot see it. You coded the driver that way, you can code it in
other way.

Naming of functions and structures is not making it difficult. That's
not the reason.

We also want to maintain Exynos PCIe driver in the future.

Hi,
Sorry for delay response.
I have listed some parts that are different from exynos pcie driver.

PHY driver
PHY is different, so register map is also different.
Three reference clock options are available in ARTPEC-8.
It operates by selecting one clock among XO, IO, and SOC PLL.
However, the exynos phy driver sets one ref clk though sysreg.
The reset method and type of PHY for initialization are different.
The overall sysreg configuration is different
Artpec-8 requires a separate sequence for phy tuning,
but it does not exist in exynos phy driver.
Artpec-8 requires pcs resources, but exynos phy driver does not exist.

Controller driver
Sub controller is different, so register map is also different.
And it is different handles lane control, link control, PHY clocking,
reset, interrupt control.
The number and type of clock resources used are different.
The overall sysreg configuration is different

Also artpec-8 is performed in dual mode that supports both RC and EP.
As described above, the PHY and sub ontroller are different
and the regiser map is different.
sysreg is also different. And there are differences such as reset.
The driver will be much more complicated if both hardwares should be
supported in the same driver.
For these reasons, my opinion is that better to create
a phy, controller both driver with a new file.
Please let me know your opinion.

Thank you.

Sure, happens, but I don't remember the discussion, so replying that
late will not help your cause.

You know that if you (you as Samsung) worked with upstream, e.g. by
extending the drivers and keeping them in shape, it would be much easier
for you (again you as Samsung) to actually add new features? It's much
better/effective approach than the path of pushing every time new driver
with explanation like "we do not want to maintain older driver, so we
want a new one"...

It usually trivial to code such difference in the driver.

Indeed.

For the phy driver indeed it might require much effort to create one driver.

Maybe, quite probably. The reluctance to extend any existing code makes
me doubting this, but I admit that there are many differences.

At the end it's mostly the decision of PCIe and phy subsystem
maintainers whether they want to have separate drivers for DWC PCIe
blocks in ARMv8 Samsung SoCs.

In any case, the driver code looks like copied-pasted from some vendor
sources, so you need to bring it to shape.

Krzysztof

Hi,

Thank you for your kindness review over several e-mails.
I will improve on PATCH 1,2,3,4 and i will return with v2.
(yaml and phy, controller driver code improvement)
At that time, i would like ask to you and phy, controller
maintainer's opinion again.

Thank you.

I think havong a common driver helps everyone, many vendors do that
already. If you have a technical issue of adding and maintaining a
common driver upstream we would be eager to understand and help with
that...
