PAXC is an emulated PCIe root complex internally in various Broadcom based SoCs. PAXC internally connects to the embedded network processor within these SoCs, with the embedeed network processor exposed as an endpoint device. The number of physical functions from the embedded network processor that can be accessed depends on the firmware configuration. Unfortunately, due to an ASIC bug, unconfigured physical functions cannot be properly hidden from the root complex during enumerattion. As a result, config write access to these unconfigured physical functions during enumeration will cause a bus lock up on the embedded network processor. Fortunately, these unconfigured physical functions contain a very specific, staled PCIe device ID 0x168e. By making use of this device ID, one is able to terminate the enumeration early in the vendor/device ID config read.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
