Are these systems also affected through runtime power management? For example: modprobe nouveau # should enable runtime PM sleep 6 # wait for runtime suspend to kick in lspci -s1: # runtime resume by reading PCI config space On laptops from about 2015-2016 with a GTX 9xxM this sequence results in hangs on various laptops (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156341).This works fine here. I'm facing a different issue.
Just to be sure, after "sleep", do both devices report "suspended" in /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:1c.0/power/runtime_status /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/power/runtime_status and was this reproduced with a recent mainline kernel with no special cmdline options? The endlessm kernel on Github seems to have quite some patches, one of them explicitly disable runtime PM: https://github.com/endlessm/linux/commit/8b128b50cd6725eee2ae9025a1510a221d9b42f2

After a lot of experimentation I found a workaround: during resume, set the value of PCI_PREF_BASE_UPPER32 to 0 on the parent PCI bridge. Easily done in drivers/pci/quirks.c. Now all nvidia stuff works fine.I am curious, how did you discover this? While this could work, perhaps there are alternative workarounds/fixes?Based on the observation that the following procedure works fine (note the addition of step 3): 1. Boot 2. Suspend/resume 3. echo rescan > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:1c.0/rescan 4. Load nouveau driver 5. Start X I worked through the rescan codepath until I had isolated the specific code which magically makes things work (in pci_bridge_check_ranges). Having found that, step 3 in the above test procedure can be replaced with a simple: setpci -s 00:1c.0 0x28.l=0quoted
When you say "parent PCI" bridge, is that actually the device you see in "lspci -tv"? On a Dell XPS 9560, the GPU is under a different device: -[0000:00]-+-00.0 Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v6/7th Gen Core Processor Host Bridge/DRAM Registers +-01.0-[01]----00.0 NVIDIA Corporation GP107M [GeForce GTX 1050 Mobile] 00:01.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v5/E3-1500 v5/6th Gen Core Processor PCIe Controller (x16) [8086:1901] (rev 05)Yes, it's the parent bridge shown by lspci. The address of this varies from system to system.
Could you share some details: - acpidump - lspci -nnxxxxvvv - BIOS version (from /sys/class/dmi/id/) - kernel version (mainline?) Perhaps there is some magic in the ACPI suspend or resume path that causes this.

1. Is the Intel PCI bridge misbehaving here? Why does writing the same value of PCI_PREF_BASE_UPPER32 make any difference at all?At what point in the suspend code path did you insert this write? It is possible that the write somehow acted as a fence/memory barrier?static void quirk_pref_base_upper32(struct pci_dev *dev) { u32 pref_base_upper32; pci_read_config_dword(dev, PCI_PREF_BASE_UPPER32, &pref_base_upper32); pci_write_config_dword(dev, PCI_PREF_BASE_UPPER32, pref_base_upper32); } DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_RESUME(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, 0x9d10, quirk_pref_base_upper32); I don't think it's acting as a barrier. I tried changing this code to rewrite other registers such as PCI_PREF_MEMORY_BASE and that makes the bug come back.quoted

2. Who is responsible for saving and restoring PCI bridge configuration during suspend and resume? Linux? ACPI? BIOS?Not sure about PCI bridges, but at least for the PCI Express Capability registers, it is in control of the OS when control is granted via the ACPI _OSC method.I guess you are referring to pci_save_pcie_state(). I can't see anything equivalent for the bridge registers.
Yes that would be the function, called via pci_save_state.

I recently compared PCI configuration space access and ACPI method invocation using QEMU + VFIO with Linux 4.18, Windows 7 and Windows 10 (1803). There were differences like disabling MSI/interrupts before suspend, setting the Enable Clock Power Management bit in PCI Express Link Control and more, but applying these changes were so far not really successful.Interesting. Do you know any way that I could spy on Windows' accesses to the PCI bridge registers? Looking at at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF I suspect VFIO would not help me here. It says: Note: If they are grouped with other devices in this manner, pci root ports and bridges should neither be bound to vfio at boot, nor be added to the VM.
Only non-bridge devices can be passed to a guest, but perhaps logging
access to the emulated bridge is already sufficient. The Prefetchable
Base Upper 32 Bits register is at offset 0x28.
In a trace where the Nvidia device is disabled/enabled via Device
Manager, I see writes on the enable path:
2571@1535108904.593107:rp_write_config (ioh3420, @0x28, 0x0, len=0x4)
For Linux, I only see one write at startup, none on runtime resume.
I did not test system sleep/resume. (disable/enable is arguably a bit
different from system s/r, you may want to do additional testing here.)

The rp_*_config trace points are non-standard and require patches:
