Bug 209113

Created attachment 292281 [details]
dmesg log of v5.8-rc6

Relaying all this information second hand:

On a system with a Mellanox Technologies MT27800 Family [ConnectX-5] NIC controller containing a power button, hot-plug fails to function properly.

  Normal, working, scenario:
    o Press the OCP NIC's power button;
    o Power button LED blinks and turns off (delivering event message to CPU);
    o Verify NIC is offline via 'lspci';
    o Remove controller.

  Scenario with cmdline parameter 'pcie_port_pm=off':
    o Press NIC's power button;
    o LED turns off;
    o Verify NIC is offline;
    o Press power button (in an attempt to hot-add controller);
    o NIC is not recognized.

  Scenario with no cmdline parameter, or ''pcie_aspm=off', or 'pcie_aspm=off 
  pcie_port_pm=off':
    o Press NIC's power button;
    o LED continuously flashes;
    o Checking via 'lspci' indicates NIC is offline but with LED flashing, the
      controller can not be removed.

The associated 'dmesg' log (which is attached in its entirety) is:

Device 0000:23:00.0 is a Root Port.
Device 0000:24:00.[0,1] is the Mellanox controller which resides downstream of
the root port ('lspci -vvv' log is also attached).


The following is a snippet from a working scenario, but, note that this is very much an apples/oranges comparison as the working scenario is from a v4.18 basis kernel.
