Previously we could request control of DPC without AER, which is illegal
per spec.  Also, we could enable CONFIG_PCIE_DPC without CONFIG_PCIE_EDR,
which is also illegal.  This series addresses both.
I have a question here, how to understand the relationship EDR & AER ?
somewhere EDR touches AER status without checking _OSC granted bits,
such as
    pci_aer_raw_clear_status(edev);

Which_OSC bits?

EDR code will only get triggered if OS advertises the EDR support (which
also means OS supports AER and DPC), and both AER and DPC is owned by
the firmware. During the EDR notification, the OS is allowed to touch AER

Means no need to check if host->native_aer ? why checked in
pcie_do_recovery() ?

Thanks,

and DPC registers. So there is no problem with EDR code using AER routines.


sometimes EDR calling AER with host->native_aer checked, like

pcie_do_recovery()
{
  ...
  if (host->native_aer || pcie_ports_native) {
         pcie_clear_device_status(dev);
         pci_aer_clear_nonfatal_status(dev);
     }
  ...
}

That is really confusing. could we do some cleanup to eliminate it ?
such as seperate AER code into common code and runtime part.


Thanks,
Ethan
