PCIe ERR_FATAL errors mean the Link is unreliable. Components on the Link may need to be reset to return to reliable operation (PCIe r4.0, sec 6.2.2). We previously handled these errors much differently depending on whether the platform supports Downstream Port Containment (DPC) (PCIe r4.0, sec 6.2.10) or not. The AER driver has historically logged the error details, called driver-supplied pci_error_handlers callbacks, and reset the Link. This reset downstream devices, but did not remove them from the PCI subsystem, re-enumerate them, or call their driver .remove() or .probe() methods. DPC is different because the hardware automatically disables the Link when it detects ERR_FATAL, which resets downstream devices. There's no opportunity for pci_error_handlers callbacks before resetting the Link. The DPC driver removes affected devices (which calls their driver .remove() methods), brings the Link back up, and re-enumerates (which calls driver .probe() methods). Align AER ERR_FATAL handling with DPC by resetting the Link in software, skipping the driver pci_error_handlers callbacks, removing the devices from the PCI subsystem, and re-enumerating. The idea is that drivers and devices should see the same behavior for ERR_FATAL events, regardless of whether they're handled by AER or DPC. Here are the basic ERR_FATAL recovery steps, showing the previous AER behavior, the AER behavior after this patch, and the DPC behavior: AER AER DPC previous new behavior -------- --- -------- Log error yes yes yes (minimal) drv.error_detected() yes no no Reset Link yes yes yes drv.mmio_enabled() yes no no drv.slot_reset() yes no no drv.resume() yes no no Remove PCI devices no yes yes (calls drv.remove()) Re-enumerate no yes yes (calls drv.probe()) N.B. With DPC, the Link reset happens before the driver .remove() calls, while with AER, the reset happens *after* the .remove() calls. The goal is to eventually do the reset before .remove() for AER as well.
