PCI-Express Hotplug
Hi?
Does somebody knows how the linux kernel implement the PCI-Express Hotplug. The process of the PCI-Express Hotplug is the same as the PCI hotplug?

The in-kernel files should be sufficient to understand the design, what specific questions do you have after reading them?
And no, with Linux there is almost never a "detailed document", they always get out of date compared to the code itself.
good luck,
