Thank you for the review. Do you mean something like:

The following sample dummy errors are injected via aer-inject via the
following steps:

  1. The steps to compile the aer-inject tool is mentioned in (Section
     4. Software error inject) of the document [1]

     [1]: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/PCI/pcieaer-howto.txt

     Make sure to place the aer-inject executable at the home directory
     of the qemu system or at any other place.

  2. Emulate a PCIE architecture using qemu, A sample looks like
     following:
     
		qemu-system-x86_64 -kernel ../linux/arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage \
        -initrd  buildroot-build/images/rootfs.cpio.gz \
        -append "console=ttyS0"  \
        -enable-kvm -nographic \
        -M q35 \
        -device pcie-root-port,bus=pcie.0,id=rp1,slot=1 \
        -device pcie-pci-bridge,id=br1,bus=rp1 \
        -device e1000,bus=br1,addr=8
       
    Note that the PCIe features are available only when using the 
    'q35' Machine [2]
    [2]: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/docs/pcie.txt

  3. Once the qemu system starts up, create a sample aer-file or use any
     example aer file from [3]

     [3]:
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gong.chen/aer-inject.git/tree/examples

  4. Inject any aer-error using
      
      ./aer-inject aer-file

This does look a tad bit longer for a commit log so I am unsure if you
would like to have it there. If you are okay with it, I would be happy
to add it to that :)
