The current pcie_do_recovery() handles device recovery as result of
uncorrectable errors (UCE). But, CXL port devices require unique
recovery handling.

Create a cxl_do_recovery() function parallel to pcie_do_recovery(). Add CXL
specific handling to the new recovery function.

The CXL port UCE recovery must invoke the AER service driver's CXL port
UCE callback. This is different than the standard pcie_do_recovery()
recovery that calls the pci_driver::err_handler UCE handler instead.

Treat all CXL PCIe port UCE errors as fatal and call kernel panic to
"recover" the error. A panic is called instead of attempting recovery
to avoid potential system corruption.

The uncorrectable support added here will be used to complete CXL PCIe
port error handling in the future.

Hi Terry,

I'm a little bothered by the subtle difference in the bus walks
in here vs the existing cases. If we need them, comments needed
to explain why.

Yes, I will add more details in the commit message about "why".
I added explanation following your below comment.

If we are going to have separate handling, see if you can share
a lot more of the code by factoring out common functions for
the pci and cxl handling with callbacks to handle the differences.

Dan requested separate paths for the PCIe and CXL recovery. The intent,
as I understand, is to isolate the handling of PCIe and CXL protocol
errors. This is to create 2 different classes of protocol errors.
Function call chain wise I'm reasonably convinced that might be a good
idea.  But not code wise if it means we end up with more hard to review
code.


I've managed to get my head around this code a few times in the past
(I think!) and really don't fancy having two subtle variants to
consider next time we get a bug :( The RC_EC additions hurt my head.

Right, the UCE recovery logic is not straightforward. The code can  be
refactored to take advantage of reuse. I'm interested in your thoughts
after I have provided some responses here.

Can we refactor to have a common function under this and report_error_detected()?

Sure, this can be refactored.

The difference between cxl_report_error_detected() and report_error_detected() is the
handlers that are called.

cxl_report_error_detected() calls the CXL driver's registered port error handler.

report_error_recovery() calls the pcie_dev::err_handlers.

Let me know if I should refactor for common code here?

It certainly makes sense to do that somewhere in here.  Just have light
wrappers that provide callbacks so the bulk of the code is shared.


Ok, Ill start on that. I have a v2 ready to-go without the reuse changes.
You want me to wait on sending v2 till it has reuse refactoring?

The difference between this and pci_walk_bridge() is subtle and
I'd like to avoid having both if we can.

The cxl_walk_bridge() was added because pci_walk_bridge() does not report
CXL errors as needed. If the erroring device is a bridge then pci_walk_bridge()
does not call report_error_detected() for the root port itself. If the bridge
is a CXL root port then the CXL port error handler is not called. This has 2
problems: 1. Error logging is not provided, 2. A result vote is not provided
by the root port's CXL port handler.

So what happens for PCIe errors on the root port?  How are they reported?
What I'm failing to understand is why these should be different.
Maybe there is something missing on the PCIe side though!
That code plays a game with what bridge and I thought that was there to handle
this case.


PCIe errors (not CXL errors) on a root port will be processed as they are today.

An AER error is treated as a CXL error if *all* of the following are met:
- The AER error is not an internal error
   - Check is in AER's is_internal_error(info) function.
- The device is not a CXL device
   - Check is in AER's handles_cxl_errors() function.

Root port device PCIe error processing will not call the the pci_dev::err_handlers::error_detected().
because of the walk_bridge() implementation. The result vote to direct handling
is determined by downstream devices. This has probably been Ok until now because ports have been
fairly vanilla and standard until CXL.

Would similar trick to in pcie_do_recovery work here for the upstream
and downstream ports use pci_upstream_bridge() and for the others pass the dev into
pci_walk_bridge()?

Yes, that would be a good starting point to begin reuse refactoring.
I'm interested in getting yours and others feedback on the separation of the
PCI and CXL protocol errors and how much separation is or not needed.

Separation may make sense (I'm still thinking about it) for separate passes
through the topology and separate callbacks / handling when an error is seen.
What I don't want to see is two horribly complex separate walking codes if
we can possibly avoid it.  Long term to me that just means two sets of bugs
and problem corners instead of one.

Jonathan


I understand. I will look to make changes here for reuse.

Terry
