Abstract:
A hot plug method, a host controller, a host, and a PCIe bridge device. The method includes: generating, by a host controller, a first notification packet, where the first notification packet includes hot plug interruption information, and the hot plug interruption information indicates that a first PCIe device is to be hot-plugged; sending, by the host controller, the first notification packet to a host, so that the host performs, according to the first notification packet, a hot plug operation corresponding to the PCIe device; and receiving, by the host controller, a second notification packet sent by the host, and sending the second notification packet to a user equipment controller, to facilitate the user equipment controller to instruct a user to insert or remove the PCIe device, where the second notification packet is for indicating that the hot plug operation corresponding to the PCIe device is completed.

Claim (Index 7):
A hot plug method, wherein the method is applied to a remote Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) system, the PCIe system includes a host, a first PCIe bridge device, a second PCIe bridge device and N PCIe devices, the first PCIe bridge device is connected to the host, the first PCIe bridge device is connected to the second PCIe bridge device, the N PCIe devices are mounted in downstream of the second PCIe bridge device, N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and the method comprises: detecting, by the first PCIe bridge device, whether a second link is abnormal, wherein the second link is a link between the first PCIe bridge device and the second PCIe bridge device; and\n generating, by the first PCIe bridge device, N fourth notification packets after detecting the second link is abnormal, wherein the N fourth notification packets are used to instruct the host to perform a hot plug operation corresponding to the N PCIe devices.
