[PATCH v4 1/2] PCI: AtomicOps: Do not enable if root-port capabilities are unknown

From: Gerd Bayer <gbayer@linux.ibm.com>
Date: 2026-03-13 16:50:03
Also in: linux-pci, linux-rdma, linux-s390, lkml, stable
Subsystem: pci subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Bjorn Helgaas, Linus Torvalds

When inspecting the config space of a Connect-X physical function in an
s390 system after it was initialized by the mlx5_core device driver, we
found the function to be enabled to request AtomicOps despite the
system's root-complex lacking support for completing them:

1ed0:00:00.1 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT2894 Family [ConnectX-6 Lx]
	Subsystem: Mellanox Technologies Device 0002
  [...]
	DevCtl2: Completion Timeout: 50us to 50ms, TimeoutDis-
		 AtomicOpsCtl: ReqEn+
		 IDOReq- IDOCompl- LTR- EmergencyPowerReductionReq-
		 10BitTagReq- OBFF Disabled, EETLPPrefixBlk-

Turns out the device driver calls pci_enable_atomic_ops_to_root() which
defaulted to enable AtomicOps requests even if it had no information
about the root-port that the PCIe device is attached to.

Change to logic of pci_enable_atomic_ops_to_root() to fully traverse the
PCIe tree upwards, check that the bridge devices support delivering
AtomicOps transactions, and finally check that there is a root-port at
the end that does support completing AtomicOps.

Do not enable AtomicOps requests if nothing can be learned about how the
device is attached - e.g. if it is on an "isolated" bus, as in s390.
