Hi Rob,

Thank you for your reply.

Our PCIe design has multiple functions. And the series of patches are submitted for
PCIe RC. The other PCIe functions also use this phy node.
I traced the PHY driver interface, it cannot meet our usage.
Therefore, the RC driver uses the phandle property to configure.
And this syscon also is used by the other PCIe functions.

Actually.
There are two PCIe bus in AST2600
We use the other one PCIe to EP mode, here I call PCIe A.
I call the pcie0 node as PCIe B.
We do not provide PCIe A to RC mode for usage, just EP mode.
But, when PCIe A is used as RC, it reg mapping is starting from 0x1e770080.
I list there mapping.

0x1e77_0000 ~ 0x1e77_007f : common usage
0x1e77_0080 ~ 0x1e77_00bf : PCIE A
0x1e77_00C0 ~ 0x1e77_00ff : PCIE B

So, it is why we create one node to describe common usage for PCIe A and B.
And, why the pcie0 reg mapping is starting from 0x1e77_00c0.

Agreed.
We only provide one RC.

List:
PCIE A: 0-0x7f
PCIE B: 0x80-0xff

It is our design on PCIe B to use bus-range 0x80-0xff.
