The only case where you have "siblings" to that RC is when it's some kind of integrated chipset with non-PCI devices in it (still common in Intel world). Any real PCIe device -must- have a P2P above it with the PCIe capability & associated control registers. > Is it documented anywhere (e.g. in the chip manual)?

You don't have to, but we sometimes do it so we can put the interrupt-map in the right place. But again, since on PCIe the device underneath should always have dev 0 for non-SRIOV stuff, the swizzling shall be NOP and so having the interrupt-map all the way at the top might work. However I'm not sure if that will work with PFs and ARI where the dev is non-0. > > Maybe Ben's got some comments to add here from a generic PCIe point of view. > > > >>>> Do we really need the error interrupt specified twice? > >>> > >>> I put it twice because it has multiple purposes, one has to do with > >>> interrupts defined by the PCI spec vs ones defined via FSL controller. > >> > >> There are PCI-defined error conditions that cause a host controller > >> interrupt.
