I am seeing corruptions on a couple of POWER9 systems (boston) when
stressed with IO. stress-ng gives some results but I have first seen
it when compiling the kernel in a guest and this is still the best way
to raise the issue.

These systems have of a SAS Adaptec controller :

  0003:01:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller: Adaptec Series 8 12G SAS/PCIe 3 (rev 01)

When the failure occurs, the POWERPC EEH interrupt fires and dumps
lowlevel PHB4 registers among which :
					  
  [ 2179.251069490,3] PHB#0003[0:3]:           phbErrorStatus = 0000028000000000
  [ 2179.251117476,3] PHB#0003[0:3]:      phbFirstErrorStatus = 0000020000000000

The bits raised identify a PPC 'TCE' error, which means it is related
to DMAs. See below for more details.


Reverting this patch "fixes" the issue but it is probably else where,
in some other layers or in the aacraid driver. How should I proceed 
to get more information ?

Thanks,

C.
