CXL accelerators are unfortunately not immune from failure. This patch
set enables them to particpate in the Extended Error Handling process.
This series starts with a number of preparatory patches:
- Patch 1 is cleanup: converting macros to static inlines.
- Patch 2 makes sure we don't touch the hardware when it has failed.
- Patches 3-5 make the 'unplug' functions idempotent, so that if we
get part way through recovery and then fail, being completely
unplugged as part of removal doesn't cause us to oops out.
- Patches 6 and 7 refactor init and teardown paths for the adapter
and AFUs, so that they can be configured and deconfigured
separately from their allocation and release.
- Patch 8 stops cxl_reset from breaking EEH.
Patches 9 and 10 are parts of EEH.
- Firstly we have a kernel flag that allows us to confidently assert
the hardware will not change (be reflashed) when it it reset. We
need this in order to be able to safely do EEH recovery.
- We then have the EEH support itself.
Finally, we add a CONFIG_CXL_EEH symbol. This allows drivers to depend
on the API we provide to enable CXL EEH, or to be easily backportable
if EEH is optional.
Changes from v2 are mostly minor cleanups, reflecting some review and
further testing.
- Use static inlines instead of macros.
- Propagate PCI link state to devices on the vPHB.
- Various cleanup, thanks Cyril Bur.
- Use pci_channel_offline instead of a direct check.
- Don't ifdef, just provide the symbol so that drivers know that the
new API is available. Thanks to Cyril for patiently explaining this
to me about 3 times before I understood.
Changes from v1:
- More comprehensive link down checks, including vPHB.
- Rebased to apply cleanly to 4.2-rc4.
- cxl reset changes.
- CONFIG_CXL_EEH symbol addition.
- add better vPHB support to EEH.
