    scsi: lpfc: Adding ability to reset chip via pci bus reset · 5021267a
    James Smart 提交于
    This patch adds a "pci_bus_reset" option to the board_mode sysfs attribute.
    This option uses the pci_reset_bus() api to reset the PCIe link the adapter
    is on, which will reset the chip/adapter.  Prior to issuing this option,
    all functions on the same chip must be placed in the offline state by the
    admin. After the reset, all of the instances may be brought online again.
    
    The primary purpose of this functionality is to support cases where
    firmware update required a chip reset but the admin did not want to reboot
    the machine in order to instantiate the firmware update.
    
    Sanity checks take place prior to the reset to ensure the adapter is the
    sole entity on the PCIe bus and that all functions are in the offline
    state.
