But device enable function calls the bridge enable if it has the bridge. Bridge enable function enables both device and bus master. Here the issue might be because, bridge of endpoint has already set device enable without set bus master in some other context. which is wrong. because all bridges should enable with bridge_enable function only. So we see the problem In this context, because "if (bridge && !pci_is_enabled(bridge))" check stops bridge enable which intern stops bus master. pci_enable_bridge function always makes sure that both device and bus master are enabled in any case. If pci_enable_bridge function is not called means, that bridge is already has device enable flag set. which is not from pci_enable_bridge function. Regards, Srinath. > -- > Jens Axboe >
