When processing an ANFE, ideally both correctable error(CE) status and
uncorrectable error(UE) status should be cleared. However, there is no
way to fully identify the UE associated with ANFE. Even worse, Non-Fatal
Error(NFE) may set the same UE status bit as ANFE. Treating an ANFE as
NFE will bring some issues, i.e., breaking softwore probing; treating
NFE as ANFE will make us ignoring some UEs which need active recover
operation. To avoid clearing UEs that are not ANFE by accident, the
most conservative route is taken here: If any of the NFE Detected bits
is set in Device Status, do not touch UE status, they should be cleared
later by the UE handler. Otherwise, a specific set of UEs that may be
raised as ANFE according to the PCIe specification will be cleared if
their corresponding severity is Non-Fatal.
For instance, previously when kernel receives an ANFE with Poisoned TLP
in OS native AER mode, only status of CE will be reported and cleared:
AER: Correctable error message received from 0000:b7:02.0
PCIe Bus Error: severity=Correctable, type=Transaction Layer, (Receiver ID)
device [8086:0db0] error status/mask=00002000/00000000
[13] NonFatalErr
If the kernel receives a Malformed TLP after that, two UEs will be
reported, which is unexpected. Malformed TLP Header is lost since
the previous ANFE gated the TLP header logs:
PCIe Bus Error: severity="Uncorrectable (Fatal), type=Transaction Layer, (Receiver ID)
device [8086:0db0] error status/mask=00041000/00180020
[12] TLP (First)
[18] MalfTLP
Now, for the same scenario, both CE status and related UE status will be
reported and cleared after ANFE:
AER: Correctable error message received from 0000:b7:02.0
PCIe Bus Error: severity=Correctable, type=Transaction Layer, (Receiver ID)
device [8086:0db0] error status/mask=00002000/00000000
[13] NonFatalErr
Uncorrectable errors that may cause Advisory Non-Fatal:
[18] TLP
