From Matthew Garrett <> Subject [PATCH] pci: Rework ASPM disable code Date Thu, 10 Nov 2011 16:38:33 -0500 Right now we forcibly clear ASPM state on all devices if the BIOS indicates

that the feature isn't supported. Based on the Microsoft presentation

"PCI Express In Depth for Windows Vista and Beyond", I'm starting to think

that this may be an error. The implication is that unless the platform

grants full control via _OSC, Windows will not touch any PCIe features -

including ASPM. In that case clearing ASPM state would be an error unless

the platform has granted us that control.



This patch reworks the ASPM disabling code such that the actual clearing

of state is triggered by a successful handoff of PCIe control to the OS.

The general ASPM code undergoes some changes in order to ensure that the

ability to clear the bits isn't overridden by ASPM having already been

disabled. Further, this theoretically now allows for situations where

only a subset of PCIe roots hand over control, leaving the others in the

BIOS state.



It's difficult to know for sure that this is the right thing to do -

there's zero public documentation on the interaction between all of these

components. But enough vendors enable ASPM on platforms and then set this

bit that it seems likely that they're expecting the OS to leave them alone.



Measured to save around 5W on an idle Thinkpad X220.
