Introduction + +*Linux* has a comprehensive PCI subsystem to support PCI controllers that +operates in Root Complex mode. The subsystem has capability to scan PCI bus, +assign memory resources and irq resources, load PCI driver (based on +vendorid, deviceid), support other services like hot-plug, power management, +advanced error reporting and virtual channels. + +However PCI controller IPs integrated in certain SoC is capable of operating +either in Root Complex mode or Endpoint mode.

This will help to run Linux in an +EP system which can have a wide variety of use cases from testing or +validation, co-processor accelerator etc.. + +2. PCI Endpoint Core + +The PCI Endpoint Core layer comprises of 3 components: the Endpoint Controller +library, the Endpoint Function library and the configfs layer to bind the +endpoint function with the endpoint controller. + +2.1 PCI Endpoint Controller(EPC) Library + +The EPC library provides APIs to be used by the controller that can operate +in endpoint mode.
