[PATCH] PCI/ASPM: Disable ASPM when save/restore PCI state

From: Victor Ding
Date: Thu Jan 28 2021 - 07:29:37 EST


Certain PCIe devices (e.g. GL9750) have high penalties (e.g. high Port
T_POWER_ON) when exiting L1 but enter L1 aggressively. As a result,
such devices enter and exit L1 frequently during pci_save_state and
pci_restore_state; eventually causing poor suspend/resume performance.

Based on the observation that PCI accesses dominance pci_save_state/
pci_restore_state plus these accesses are fairly close to each other, the
actual time the device could stay in low power states is negligible.
Therefore, the little power-saving benefit from ASPM during suspend/resume
does not overweight the performance degradation caused by high L1 exit
penalties.

Therefore, this patch proposes to disable ASPM during a suspend/resume
process.
