Subject: [PATCH v6 4/4] PCI: of: introduce of_pci_verify_node()
Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2026 10:02:21 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260924150222.1179235-5-elder@riscstar.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260924150222.1179235-1-elder@riscstar.com>

The Open Firmware PCI Bus Supplement and Devicetree Specification
reserves the device_type property for PCI bridge nodes (with value
"pci" or "pciex").  Non-bridge PCI endpoint nodes must not include
this property.  Rob Herring observed that developers seem to get
this wrong.  Commit df4107fc729e3 ("arm64: dts: qcom: qcs6490-rb3gen2:
clean up PCI function nodes") and a few that follow demonstrate this.

Rob requested that a runtime check be added to spot this specific error,
only for non-bridge PCI devices.  Herve Codina further suggested we
ensure that bridge PCI devices *do* define the device_type property,
with value "pci" or "pciex".

Implement these suggested warnings in of_pci_verify_node(), a new
function called by pci_bus_add_device() for both bridges and endpoints.
If a PCI bridge has a devicetree node, a warning is issued if it has
a device_type property whose value is not "pci" or "pciex" (or if it
has no such property).  Similarly, a warning is issued for an endpoint
if it has a device_type property having one of those two values.

To be clear, this adds warnings, but otherwise ignores the errors
it warns about.  It is meant to help developers; users should never
see them.
