Hi Bjorn,

the above patch removes ERR_FATAL handling from pcie_portdrv_slot_reset()
because now we are handling ERR_FATAL differently than before.

I tried to dig into pcie_portdrv_slot_reset() handling for ERR_FATAL case
where it
restores the config space, enable device, set master and enable error
reporting....
and as far as I understand this is being done for upstream link (bridges
etc..)

why was it done at the first point (I checked the commit description, but
could not really get it)
and do we need to handle the same thing in ERR_FATAL now ?

You mean 4bf3392e0bf5 ("PCI-Express AER implemetation: pcie_portdrv
error handler"), which added pcie_portdrv_slot_reset()?  I agree, that
commit log has no useful information.  I don't know any of the history
behind it.

Hi Bjorn and Keith,

broadcast_error_message()
if (dev->hdr_type == PCI_HEADER_TYPE_BRIDGE) {
        .....
        pci_walk_bus(dev->subordinate, cb, &result_data);


so in case of ERR_FATAL, the walk bus is happening on subordinates, and if I understand the walk right
then, pcie_portdrv_slot_reset() is called only on BRIDGES/Switches

If is never called on Root-Ports

having said that, now since we are removing the devices (compare to previous error callback handling in ERR_FATAL)
I dont see the need of the above code anymore.

because there is nothing to restore to any more. as we are initiating re-enumeration.

Regards,
Oza.
