PCIe native PME detection mechanism is based on interrupts generated
by root ports or event collectors every time a PCIe device sends a
PME message upstream.
Once a PME message has been sent by an endpoint device and received
by its root port (or event collector in the case of root complex
integrated endpoints), the Requester ID from the message header is
registered in the root port's Root Status register. At the same
time, the PME Status bit of the Root Status register is set to
indicate that there's a PME to handle. If PCIe PME interrupt is
enabled for the root port, it generates an interrupt once the PME
Status has been set. After receiving the interrupt, the kernel can
identify the PCIe device that generated the PME using the Requester
ID from the root port's Root Status register. [For details, see PCI
Express Base Specification, Rev. 2.0.]
Implement a driver for the PCIe PME root port service working in
accordance with the above description.

PCI Express ASPM defines a protocol for PCI Express components in the D0
state to reduce Link power by placing their Links into a low power state
and instructing the other end of the Link to do likewise. This
capability allows hardware-autonomous, dynamic Link power reduction
beyond what is achievable by software-only controlled power management.
However, The device should be configured by software appropriately.
Enabling ASPM will save power, but will introduce device latency.
This patch adds ASPM support in Linux. It introduces a global policy for
ASPM, a sysfs file /sys/module/pcie_aspm/parameters/policy can control
it. The interface can be used as a boot option too. Currently we have
below setting:
-default, BIOS default setting
-powersave, highest power saving mode, enable all available ASPM
state and clock power management
-performance, highest performance, disable ASPM and clock power
management
By default, the 'default' policy is used currently.
In my test, power difference between powersave mode and performance mode
is about 1.3w in a system with 3 PCIE links.
Note: some devices might not work well with aspm, either because chipset
issue or device issue. The patch provide API (pci_disable_link_state),
driver can disable ASPM for specific device.

This reverts commit 6c723d5bd8.
It caused build errors on non-x86 platforms, config file confusion, and
even some boot errors on some x86-64 boxes. All around, not quite ready
for prime-time :(

Patch 3 implements the core part of PCI-Express AER and aerdrv
port service driver.
When a root port service device is probed, the aerdrv will call
request_irq to register irq handler for AER error interrupt.
When a device sends an PCI-Express error message to the root port,
the root port will trigger an interrupt, by either MSI or IO-APIC,
then kernel would run the irq handler. The handler collects root
error status register and schedules a work. The work will call
the core part to process the error based on its type
(Correctable/non-fatal/fatal).
As for Correctable errors, the patch chooses to just clear the correctable
error status register of the device.
As for the non-fatal error, the patch follows generic PCI error handler
rules to call the error callback functions of the endpoint's driver. If
the device is a bridge, the patch chooses to broadcast the error to
downstream devices.
As for the fatal error, the patch resets the pci-express link and
follows generic PCI error handler rules to call the error callback
functions of the endpoint's driver. If the device is a bridge, the patch
chooses to broadcast the error to downstream devices.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
