      PCI-Express AER implemetation: AER core and aerdriver · 6c2b374d
      Zhang, Yanmin 提交于
      Patch 3 implements the core part of PCI-Express AER and aerdrv
      port service driver.
      
      When a root port service device is probed, the aerdrv will call
      request_irq to register irq handler for AER error interrupt.
      
      When a device sends an PCI-Express error message to the root port,
      the root port will trigger an interrupt, by either MSI or IO-APIC,
      then kernel would run the irq handler. The handler collects root
      error status register and schedules a work. The work will call
      the core part to process the error based on its type
      (Correctable/non-fatal/fatal).
      
      As for Correctable errors, the patch chooses to just clear the correctable
      error status register of the device.
      
      As for the non-fatal error, the patch follows generic PCI error handler
      rules to call the error callback functions of the endpoint's driver. If
      the device is a bridge, the patch chooses to broadcast the error to
      downstream devices.
      
      As for the fatal error, the patch resets the pci-express link and
      follows generic PCI error handler rules to call the error callback
      functions of the endpoint's driver. If the device is a bridge, the patch
      chooses to broadcast the error to downstream devices.
