Hello! Which PCIe port do you mean by PCI bridge device? Do you mean
PCIe Root Port? Or upstream port on some external PCIe switch connected
via PCIe bus to the PCIe Root Port? Because all of these (virtual) PCIe
devices are presented as PCI bridge devices, so it is not clear to which
device it refers.

Normally PERST# signal is used to reset endpoint card, other end of PCIe
link and so PERST# signal should not affect PCIe Root Port at all.

Because PERST# signal resets endpoint card, this reset timeout should
not be driver or controller specific.

Mauro, if you understand this issue more deeply, could you look at my
email? https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20210310110535.zh4pnn4vpmvzwl5q@pali/

I think that kernel PCI subsystem does not properly handle PCIe Warm
Reset and correct initialization of endpoint cards. Because similar
"random PERST# timeout patches" were applied to lot of native controller
drivers.

PS: I'm not opposing this patch, I'm just trying to understand what is
happening here and why particular number "21000" was chosen. It is
defined in some standard? Or was it just randomly chosen and measures
that with this number is initialization working fine?
