* powerpc/eeh: Introdce flag to protect sysfsGavin Shan2013-07-24
| | | | | | | | | The patch introduces flag EEH_DEV_SYSFS to keep track that the sysfs entries for the corresponding EEH device (then PCI device) has been added or removed, in order to avoid race condition.

* powerpc/eeh: Use partial hotplug for EEH unaware driversGavin Shan2013-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When EEH error happens to one specific PE, some devices with drivers supporting EEH won't except hotplug on the device. However, there might have other deivces without driver, or with driver without EEH support. For the case, we need do partial hotplug in order to make sure that the PE becomes absolutely quite during reset. Otherise, the PE reset might fail and leads to failure of error recovery. The current code doesn't handle that 'mixed' case properly, it either uses the error callbacks to the drivers, or tries hotplug, but doesn't handle a PE (EEH domain) composed of a combination of the two. The patch intends to support so-called "partial" hotplug for EEH: Before we do reset, we stop and remove those PCI devices without EEH sensitive driver. The corresponding EEH devices are not detached from its PE, but with special flag. After the reset is done, those EEH devices with the special flag will be scanned one by one.

* powerpc/eeh: Move common part to kernel directoryGavin Shan2013-06-20
The patch moves the common part of EEH core into arch/powerpc/kernel directory so that we needn't PPC_PSERIES while compiling POWERNV platform: * Move the EEH common part into arch/powerpc/kernel * Move the functions for PCI hotplug from pSeries platform to arch/powerpc/kernel/pci-hotplug.c * Move CONFIG_EEH from arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/Kconfig to arch/powerpc/platforms/Kconfig * Adjust makefile accordingly Signed-off-by: Gavin Shan <shangw@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
