Peripheral PCI express

Device tree configuration

Here below an example of device tree configuration used on standard DAVE's kit for the ORCA SOM:

From imx8mp-mito8mplus-cb1001.dts:

&pcie {
	status = "okay";
};

&pcie_phy{
	ext_osc = <1>;
	status = "okay";
};

The PCIe usage is strictly related to the peripheral type connected to the PCIe slot. Then, the peripheral type defines the linux commands used for the accessing (hiding the PCIe bus commands)
