For instance each of these were previously a separate group and are now combined into one group. # lspci -vvvs 00:01. [manually edited] 00:01.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

An Alder Lake system shows something similar: # lspci -tv -[0000:00]-+-00.0 Intel Corporation 12th Gen Core Processor Host Bridge +-01.0-[01-02]----00.0-[02]-- +-02.0 Intel Corporation Alder Lake-S GT1 [UHD Graphics 770] +-04.0 Intel Corporation Alder Lake Innovation Platform Framework Processor Participant +-06.0-[03]----00.0 Sandisk Corp SanDisk Ultra 3D / WD PC SN530, IX SN530, Blue SN550 NVMe SSD (DRAM-less) +-08.0 Intel Corporation 12th Gen Core Processor Gaussian & Neural Accelerator +-14.0 Intel Corporation Raptor Lake USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20 Gb/s) XHCI Host Controller +-14.2 Intel Corporation Raptor Lake-S PCH Shared SRAM +-15.0 Intel Corporation Raptor Lake Serial IO I2C Host Controller #0 +-15.1 Intel Corporation Raptor Lake Serial IO I2C Host Controller #1 +-15.2 Intel Corporation Raptor Lake Serial IO I2C Host Controller #2 +-15.3 Intel Corporation Device 7a4f +-16.0 Intel Corporation Raptor Lake CSME HECI #1 +-17.0 Intel Corporation Raptor Lake SATA AHCI Controller +-19.0 Intel Corporation Device 7a7c +-19.1 Intel Corporation Device 7a7d +-1a.0-[04]----00.0 Sandisk Corp SanDisk Ultra 3D / WD PC SN530, IX SN530, Blue SN550 NVMe SSD (DRAM-less) +-1c.0-[05]-- +-1c.1-[06]----00.0 Fresco Logic FL1100 USB 3.0 Host Controller +-1c.2-[07]----00.0 Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

Here 1c.0 does not report ACS, but the other root ports do: # lspci -vvvs 1c. | grep -e ^0 -e "Access Control Services" 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Raptor Lake PCI Express Root Port #1 (rev 11) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode]) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Device 7a39 (rev 11) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode]) Capabilities: [220 v1] Access Control Services 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Raptor Point-S PCH - PCI Express Root Port 3 (rev 11) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode]) Capabilities: [220 v1] Access Control Services 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Raptor Lake PCI Express Root Port #4 (rev 11) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode]) Capabilities: [220 v1] Access Control Services So again the group is tainted by a device that cannot generate DMA, the endpoint grouping remains equivalent, but isolated buses downstream of this non-isolated group doesn't seem to make sense. I'll try to generate further interesting configs. Thanks, Alex
