[PATCH v5 00/21] EEH reorganization

[Gavin Shan]

Hi Ben,

Could you pls take a look on this when you have time?

Thanks,
Gavin

> This series of patches is going to reorganize EEH so that it could support
> multiple platforms in future. The requirements were raised from the aspects.
> 
> 	* The original EEH implementation only support pSeries platform, which
> 	  would be regarded as guest system. Platform powernv is coming and EEH
> 	  needs to be supported on powernv as well.
> 	* Different platforms might be running based on variable firmware.Further
> 	  more, the firmware would supply different EEH interfaces to kernel.
> 	  Therefore, we have to do necessary abstraction on current EEH implementation.
> 
> In order to accomodate the requirements, the series of patches have reorganized
> current EEH implementation.
> 
> 	* The original implementation looks not clean enough. Necessary cleanup
> 	  will be done in some of the patches.
> 	* struct eeh_ops has been introduced so that EEH core components and platform
> 	  dependent implementation could be split up. That make it possible for EEH
> 	  to be supported on multiple platforms.
> 	* struct eeh_dev has been introduced to replace struct pci_dn so that EEH module
> 	  works independently as much as possible.
> 	* EEH global statistics will be maintained in a collective fashion.
> 
> v1 -> v2:
> 
> 	* If possible, to add "eeh_" prefix for function names.
> 	* The format of leading function comments won't be changed in order not to
> 	  break kernel document automatic generation (e.g. by "make pdfdocs").
> 	* The name of local variables won't be changed if there're no explicit reasons.
> 	* Represent the PE's state in bitmap fasion.
> 	* Some function names have been adjusted so that they look shorter and
> 	  meaningful.
> 	* Platform operation name has been changed to "pseries".
> 	* Merge those patches for cleanup if possible.
> 	* The line length is kept as appropriately short if possible.
> 	* Fixup on alignment & spacing issues.
> 
> v2 -> v3:
> 	* Split cleanup patch into 2: one for comment cleanup and another one for
> 	  renaming function names.
> 	* Try to use pr_warning/pr_info/pr_debug instead of printk() function call.
> 	* Function names are adjusted a little bit so that they looks more meaningful
> 	  according to comments from Michael/Ben.
> 	* Useful comment has been kept according to Michael's comments.
> 	* struct eeh_ops::set_eeh has been changed to eeh_ops::set_option.
> 	* struct eeh_ops::name has been changed to "char *".
> 	* Remove file name from the source file.
> 	* Copyright (C) format has been changed since "(C)" isn't encouraged to use.
> 	* The header files included in the source file have been sorted alphabetically.
> 	* eeh_platform_init() has been replaced by eeh_pseries_init() to avoid duplicate
> 	  functions when kernel supports multiple platforms.
> 	* "F/W" has been changed to "Firmware".
> 	* The maximal wait time to retrieve PE's state has been covered by macro.
> 	* It also include changes according to the minor comments from Michael.
> 
> v3 -> v4:
> 	* Fix some typo included in the commit messages.
> 	* Reduce code nesting according to Ram's suggestions.
> 	* Addtinal pr_warning on failure of configuring bridges.
> 
> v4 -> v5:
> 	* OF node and PCI device are tracing the corresponding eeh device.
> 	  That has been changed to "struct eeh_dev *" instead of the original
> 	  "void *".
> 	* The conversion between OF node, PCI device, eeh device is changed
> 	  to inline functions instead of the original macros.
> 	* The "struct eeh_stats" has been moved from eeh.h to eeh.c. Besides,
> 	  the individual members of the struct have been changed to fixed-type
> 	  "unsigned int".
