device/pciexp_device.c: Do not enable common clock if already active
The Common Clock Configuration (CCC) is a PCIe feature for cases where the upstream and downstream device of a link share the same reference clock. After a change in this setting a link re-training is mandatory to make it effective. On recent Intel platforms (tested on Elkhart Lake) the FSP code which is executed before coreboot performs the PCI scan already enumerates all PCI buses for its internal uses. While this is done, all the PCI express features of a link are configured, which includes CCC. If the link supports common clock, FSP performs the link re-training already. When the execution flow is returned to coreboot, the same link treatment is applied again (coded in 'pciexp_tune_dev()') and CCC is enabled a second time, just a few milliseconds after FSP did this already. Because enabling CCC requires a link re-training, there are two link re-trainings on the PCIe link within a few milliseconds (one from the FSP code and one from coreboot) which can lead to issues with a connected PCIe device on this link. In particular, link issues were discovered with a Pericom PCIe switch (PI7C9X2G608) on mc_ehl1 where the link has stalled for a while after the second re-training. This in turn leads to non-initialized PCI devices on the bus after coreboot has finished. This patch checks if CCC is already enabled on a link and does not perform the steps to enable it again in coreboot which safes a link re-training (and thus execution time) and a potential link stability issue. Test=Check log output on mc_ehl1 which shows the following lines: [DEBUG] PCI: pci_scan_bus for bus 09 [DEBUG] PCI: 09:00.0 [8086/1533] enabled [INFO ] PCIe: Common Clock Configuration already enabled Change-Id: I747fa406a120a215de189d7252f160c8ea2e3716 Signed-off-by: Werner Zeh <werner.zeh@siemens.com> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/73310 Reviewed-by: Subrata Banik <subratabanik@google.com> Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org>
