Several PCIe hotplug controllers have errata that mean they do not set the
Command Completed bit unless writes to the Slot Command register change
"Control" bits. Command Completed is never set for writes that only change
software notification "Enable" bits. This results in timeouts like this:
pciehp 0000:00:1c.0:pcie004: Timeout on hotplug command 0x1038 (issued 65284 msec ago)
When this erratum is present, avoid these timeouts by marking commands
"completed" immediately unless they change the "Control" bits.
Here's the text of the Intel erratum CF118. We assume this applies to all
Intel parts:
CF118 PCIe Slot Status Register Command Completed bit not always
updated on any configuration write to the Slot Control
Register
Problem: For PCIe root ports (devices 0 - 10) supporting hot-plug,
the Slot Status Register (offset AAh) Command Completed
(bit[4]) status is updated under the following condition:
IOH will set Command Completed bit after delivering the new
commands written in the Slot Controller register (offset
A8h) to VPP. The IOH detects new commands written in Slot
Control register by checking the change of value for Power
Controller Control (bit[10]), Power Indicator Control
(bits[9:8]), Attention Indicator Control (bits[7:6]), or
Electromechanical Interlock Control (bit[11]) fields. Any
other configuration writes to the Slot Control register
without changing the values of these fields will not cause
Command Completed bit to be set.
The PCIe Base Specification Revision 2.0 or later describes
the “Slot Control Register” in section 7.8.10, as follows
(Reference section 7.8.10, Slot Control Register, Offset
18h). In hot-plug capable Downstream Ports, a write to the
Slot Control register must cause a hot-plug command to be
generated (see Section 6.7.3.2 for details on hot-plug
commands). A write to the Slot Control register in a
Downstream Port that is not hotplug capable must not cause a
hot-plug command to be executed.
The PCIe Spec intended that every write to the Slot Control
Register is a command and expected a command complete status
to abstract the VPP implementation specific nuances from the
OS software. IOH PCIe Slot Control Register implementation
is not fully conforming to the PCIe Specification in this
respect.
Implication: Software checking on the Command Completed status after
writing to the Slot Control register may time out.
Workaround: Software can read the Slot Control register and compare the
existing and new values to determine if it should check the
Command Completed status after writing to the Slot Control
register.
Per Sinan, the Qualcomm QDF2400 controller also does not set the Command
Completed bit unless writes to the Slot Command register change "Control"
bits.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
