ok so you are suggesting to move pci_cleanup_aer_uncorrect_error_status down
which I can do.

And not to call aer_error_resume, because you think its clearing the status
again.

following code: calls aer_error_resume.
pci_broadcast_error_message()
/*
* If the error is reported by an end point, we think this
* error is related to the upstream link of the end point.
*/
if (state == pci_channel_io_normal)
/*
* the error is non fatal so the bus is ok, just
invoke
* the callback for the function that logged the
error.
*/
cb(dev, &result_data);
else
pci_walk_bus(dev->bus, cb, &result_data);

Holy crap, I thought this could not possibly get any more complicated,
but you're right; we do actually call aer_error_resume() today via an
extremely convoluted path:

do_recovery(pci_dev)
broadcast_error_message(..., error_detected, ...)
if (AER_FATAL)
reset_link(pci_dev)
udev = BRIDGE ? pci_dev : pci_dev->bus->self
driver->reset_link(udev)
aer_root_reset(udev)
if (CAN_RECOVER)
broadcast_error_message(..., mmio_enabled, ...)
if (NEED_RESET)
broadcast_error_message(..., slot_reset, ...)
broadcast_error_message(dev, ..., report_resume, ...)
if (BRIDGE)
report_resume
driver->resume
pcie_portdrv_err_resume
device_for_each_child(..., resume_iter)
resume_iter
driver->error_resume
aer_error_resume
pci_cleanup_aer_uncorrect_error_status(pci_dev) # only if BRIDGE
pci_write_config_dword(PCI_ERR_UNCOR_STATUS)

aerdriver is the only port service driver that implements
.error_resume(), and aerdriver only binds to root ports. I can't
really believe all these device_for_each_child()/resume_iter()
gyrations are necessary when this is AER code calling AER code.

Bjorn

here is the code of do_fatal_recovery, where I have moved the things down and doing only if it is bridge.
let me know how this looks to you, so then I can post v16.


static pci_ers_result_t do_fatal_recovery(struct pci_dev *dev, int severity)
{
struct pci_dev *udev;
struct pci_bus *parent;
struct pci_dev *pdev, *temp;
struct aer_broadcast_data result_data;
pci_ers_result_t result = PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED;


if (dev->hdr_type == PCI_HEADER_TYPE_BRIDGE)
udev = dev;
else
udev = dev->bus->self;

parent = udev->subordinate;
pci_lock_rescan_remove();
list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse(pdev, temp, &parent->devices,
bus_list) {
pci_dev_get(pdev);
pci_dev_set_disconnected(pdev, NULL);
if (pci_has_subordinate(pdev))
pci_walk_bus(pdev->subordinate,
pci_dev_set_disconnected, NULL);
pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(pdev);
pci_dev_put(pdev);
}

result = reset_link(udev, severity);
if (severity == AER_FATAL && dev->hdr_type == PCI_HEADER_TYPE_BRIDGE) {
pci_walk_bus(dev->subordinate, report_resume, &result_data);
pci_cleanup_aer_uncorrect_error_status(dev);
dev->error_state = pci_channel_io_normal;
}
if (result == PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED)
if (pcie_wait_for_link(udev, true))
pci_rescan_bus(udev->bus);

pci_unlock_rescan_remove();

return result;
}
