So > no confusion. The confusion I mention is: "what actually triggers the second interrupt?" Since I can't find a description of the observed behavior in the PCIe spec, I find it interesting to know what's actually happening. Since the procedure we've discussed in this thread stalls in aer_irq(), you can't distinguish clearly which event causes the second interrupt. > > To summarize, > > In your case, you have controlled both register read/write of Root > error status register to simulate the interrupt with only multi > ERR_COR bit set. > > In my case, I have attempted to simulate it without changing the > default behavior of aer_irq() in the kernel. > > Both seem ok to me.

I think the amended procedure from this thread is fine to demonstrate how to play with the patch. The other procedure is available on the list if anyone has a need for it. Cheers, Eric
