Good question.
After further digging into the spec, I just found I misunderstood it.
An UNCUR error raised as ANFE can be raised as NFE in different cases,
so info->anfe_status can be nonzero here and the race you mentioned
does exist, the check on PCI_EXP_DEVSTA_FED is also unnecessary.
Sorry for the misleading. I plan to have below change to fix the race:
unsigned int anfe_status;
anfe_status = uncor_status & ~uncor_mask & ~info->severity &
AER_ERR_ANFE_UNC_MASK;
if (pcie_capability_read_word(dev, PCI_EXP_DEVSTA, &device_status))
return;
/*
* Take the most conservative route here. If there are
* Non-Fatal errors detected, do not assume any
* bit in uncor_status is set by ANFE.
*/
if (device_status & PCI_EXP_DEVSTA_NFED)
return;
info->anfe_status = anfe_status;
With this change, there is still a small window between reading uncor_status
and device_status to leak ANFE, but that's the best we can do and better
than clearing NFE. Let me know if you have better idea😊
Thanks
