new PCI devices after hotplug

Description of problem:

I have a Lenovo Yoga 920 with two thunderbolt-capable USB-C ports run by an Intel Corporation JHL6540.  When I plug in an Apple Thunderbolt Display attached to a Thunderbolt-3-to-2 adapter I see some Thunderbolt activity, but the display and devices attached to it remain inactive.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Linux idefix 4.14.11-300.fc27.x86_64 #1 

How reproducible:

Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Plug thunderbolt adapter with display attached in to a Thunderbolt-capable port.
2.
3.

Actual results:

The thunderbolt chip becomes visible, and is in thunderbolt mode.   The display and devices attached to it remain inactive and do not show up as devices.

Expected results:

The display becomes active and is available for use.  The devices attached to the display (currently only USB disks) become active and are available for use.

I'm still experiencing problems with kernel 4.15.3-300.fc27.x86_64+debug.  I've attached the systems messages at startup with the hub connected and lspci -vv output for the thunderbolt devices in the laptop itself.

Comment 5 Nickolai Zeldovich 2018-04-11 02:14:54 UTC
Just as a suggestion, have you tried "boltctl authorize" on your device?  (The command takes as an argument the device ID, which is listed as the UUID in "boltctl list".)

Comment 6 Peter F. Patel-Schneider 2018-06-10 18:26:08 UTC
Yes, I've tried to do that.  The device isn't visible at all in bolt.

*********** MASS BUG UPDATE **************

We apologize for the inconvenience.  There are a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale.  Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 27 kernel bugs.

Fedora 27 has now been rebased to 4.17.7-100.fc27.  Please test this kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel.

If you have moved on to Fedora 28, and are still experiencing this issue, please change the version to Fedora 28.

If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.
