It's defined in the PCI bus binding. Basically, it's the BDF of the
device. However, as the bus number is dynamic, I think we want to
leave that as 0 for FDT. The function is optional and always 0 in this
case.

Hopefully, you can figure out where those belong now...

That was just for illustration of what a device node would look like
should you need extra properties for a device. If you only needed to
set the MAC address, guess what, you need to create the hierarchy
above.

I found the mapping in table 4-1 from
https://docs.broadcom.com/doc/PEX_8606-BA_Data_Book_v1.3_31Mar11.pdf

So it is like this:
Device 0 - lane 0 - upstream
Device 1 - lane 4 - m.2
Device 5 - lane 5 - mini PCIe
Device 7 - lane 6 - ethernet

'lane' is the signal numbering in the schematics.

I would say that anything with extra properties should have a compatible.

The eye diagram only applies to the link between the RP and switch.
There's no way that any of the downstream PERSTs matter, that's just
not logical. So you only need to deassert PERST on that link.

What happens if you only handle the switch PERST and CLKREQ? You
should simply only discover the switch and no downstream devices.

Huh? What exactly causes an SError. Has to be some bus access. But
again, it's only going to be the one for the RP link that matters
here.

Everyone else handles this stuff in their PCIe driver. You are not special...

I have a plan to make the PERST handling common across all PCIe host
drivers and also make the PHY handling common across DWC drivers.
Don't make that harder.
