v3 cover PCI/ERR: s390/pci: Use pci_uevent_ers() in PCI recovery

Hi Bjorn, Lukas, Mahesh,

This series adds issuing of uevents during PCI recovery on s390. In developing this I noticed that pci_uevent_ers() ignores PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET. I think this will result in AER not generating a uevent at the beginning of recovery if drivers request a reset via the voting on error_detected() returns. This is fixed in the first patch and relied upon by the s390 recovery code as it also uses the result of error_detected() though with one device/driver at a time.

Thanks,
Niklas

PATCH v3 1/2 PCI/AER: Fix missing uevent on recovery when a reset is requested

Since commit 7b42d97e99d3 ("PCI/ERR: Always report current recovery status for udev") AER uses the result of error_detected() as parameter to pci_uevent_ers(). As pci_uevent_ers() however does not handle PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET this results in a missing uevent for the beginning of recovery if drivers request a reset. Fix this by treating PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET as beginning recovery.

If you do and respin the patch with that change, feel free to add my Reviewed-by.

Since you're an IBMer and EEH is maintained by IBM, I'm wondering if it would be possible to amend EEH to report "rc" instead of PCI_ERS_RESULT_NONE in eeh_report_error()? There are multiple deviations between AER and EEH, this is one of them. It would be good to move towards a more consistent recovery process across platforms.

Thanks,

In that case you don't need to add PCI_ERS_RESULT_NO_AER_DRIVER to the switch/case statement because we wouldn't want to have multiple uevents reporting disconnect, so the one emitted below the "failed:" label would be sufficient.

Right now we may report BEGIN_RECOVERY to user space, but we fail to later on signal FAILED_RECOVERY (unless I'm missing something).

This all looks so broken that I'm starting to wonder if there's any user space application at all that takes advantage of these uevents?

Since you are notifying the user space, I am wondering whether the drivers should be notified about the recovery failure?

The drivers are usually *causing* the recovery failure by returning PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT from their pci_error_handlers callbacks (or by lacking pci_error_handlers, in particular ->error_detected()).

So in principle the drivers should be aware of recovery failure.

There are cases where multiple drivers are involved. E.g. on GPUs, there's often a PCIe switch with a graphics device and various sound or telemetry devices. Typically errors are reported by the Upstream Port, so the Secondary Bus Reset occurs at the Root or Downstream Port above the Upstream Port and affects the switch and all subordinate devices. In cases like this, recovery failure may be caused by a single driver (e.g. GPU) and the other drivers (e.g. telemetry) may be unaware of it.

The recovery flow documented in Documentation/PCI/pci-error-recovery.rst was originally conceived for EEH and indeed EEH does notify all drivers of recovery failures by invoking the ->error_detected() callback with channel_state pci_channel_io_perm_failure. See this call ...

	eeh_pe_report("error_detected(permanent failure)", pe,
		      eeh_report_failure, NULL);

... in arch/powerpc/kernel/eeh_driver.c below the recover_failed label in eeh_handle_normal_event().

I don't know why pcie_do_recovery() doesn't do the same on recovery failure. This is one of several annoying deviations between AER and EEH. Ideally the behavior should be the same across all platforms so that drivers don't have to cope with platform-specific quirks.

However I think that's orthogonal to the pci_uevent_ers() invocation in pcie_do_recovery().

Thanks,

Lukas

Yes, my comment was referring to the scenario mentioned above. If one of the subordinate devices fails recovery, then recovery effectively fails for all devices under that downstream port (or root port). Notifying all devices under that port would allow their drivers to perform the necessary cleanup

... in arch/powerpc/kernel/eeh_driver.c below the recover_failed label in eeh_handle_normal_event().

Agree. The current implementation does not seem to follow the steps mentioned in the Documentation/PCI/pci-error-recovery.rst.

STEP 6: Permanent Failure
-------------------------
A "permanent failure" has occurred, and the platform cannot recover the device.  The platform will call error_detected() with a pci_channel_state_t value of pci_channel_io_perm_failure.

The device driver should, at this point, assume the worst. It should cancel all pending I/O, refuse all new I/O, returning -EIO to higher layers. The device driver should then clean up all of its memory and remove itself from kernel operations, much as it would during system shutdown.

However I think that's orthogonal to the pci_uevent_ers() invocation in pcie_do_recovery().

Agree. My thought is, since there is an attempt to fix the user notification side of things, may be the driver side should also be fixed together .

As far as I can see PCI_ERS_RESULT_NO_AER_DRIVER only occurs in the AER code and leads to abandoning all recovery attempts for the whole subtree with a disconnect. So my thinking is that the uevent is just disconnect. That also matches your proposal below. Thankfully it looks like there are still kernel messages indicating the reason of the failure.

Thanks for the R-b! And yes I agree we should minimize the differences between the behavior of the implementations. I'll see if I can sync up on this with Mahesh too.

I only tested this with udevadm so far. That said I had multiple projects ask for ways to monitor for errors/recovery from user-space so at least for s390 there is interest for these events. There is also a bit of mainframe specifics here of course, for example our machines have the ability to fail over a broken PCI link to an I/O drawer with an alternate path and that piggybacks on these recovery mechanisms. And generally, we're looking at expanding our support for and use of PCI error recovery and will hopefully be sharing some more of that soon.

Also note that with the recently released IBM z17 and IBM LinuxONE 5 with Linux we're significantly expanding our reliance on native PCI[0][1].
