Commit 0e157e5286 ("PCI/PME: Implement runtime PM callbacks") tried to
solve an issue where the hierarchy immediately wakes up when it is
transitioned into D3cold. However, it turns out to prevent PME
propagation on some systems that do not support D3cold.
I looked more closely at what might cause the immediate wakeup. It happens
when the ACPI power resource of the root port is turned off. The AML code
associated with the _OFF() method of the ACPI power resource starts a PCIe
L2/L3 Ready transition and waits for it to complete. Right after the L2/L3
Ready transition is started the root port receives a PME from the
downstream port.
The simplest hierarchy where this happens looks like this:
00:1d.0 PCIe Root Port
^
|
v
05:00.0 PCIe switch #1 upstream port
06:01.0 PCIe switch #1 downstream hotplug port
^
|
v
08:00.0 PCIe switch #2 upstream port
It seems that the PCIe link between the two switches, before
PME_Turn_Off/PME_TO_Ack is complete for the whole hierarchy, goes
inactive and triggers PME towards the root port bringing it back to D0.
The L2/L3 Ready sequence is described in PCIe r4.0 spec sections 5.2 and
5.3.3 but unfortunately they do not state what happens if DLLSCE is
enabled during the sequence.
Disabling Data Link Layer State Changed event (DLLSCE) seems to prevent
the issue and still allows the downstream hotplug port to notice when a
device is plugged/unplugged.
