The patch introduces additional flag EEH_PE_RESET to indicate the
corresponding PE is under reset. In turn, the PE retrieval bakcend
on PowerNV platform can return unfrozen state for the EEH core to
moving forward. Flag EEH_PE_CFG_BLOCKED isn't the correct one for
the purpose.

In PCI passthrou case, the problem is more worse: Guest doesn't
recover 6th EEH error. The PE is left in isolated (frozen) and
config blocked state on Broadcom adapters. We can't retrieve the
PE's state correctly any more, even from the host side via sysfs
/sys/bus/pci/devices/xxx/eeh_pe_state.

<title>powerpc/eeh: Rename flag EEH_PE_RESET to EEH_PE_CFG_BLOCKED</title>

The flag EEH_PE_RESET indicates blocking config space of the PE
during reset time. We potentially need block PE's config space
other than reset time. So it's reasonable to replace it with
EEH_PE_CFG_BLOCKED to indicate its usage.

There are no substantial code or logic changes in this patch.

<title>powerpc/eeh: Emulate EEH recovery for VFIO devices</title>

<content type='text'>
When enabling EEH functionality on passed through devices (PE)
with VFIO, the devices in the PE would be removed permanently
from guest side. In that case, the PE remains frozen state.
When returning PE to host, or restarting the guest again, we
had mechanism unfreezing the PE by clearing PESTA/B frozen
bits. However, that's not enough for some adapters, which are
indicated as following "lspci" shows. Those adapters require
hot reset on the parent bus to bring their firmware back to
workable state. Otherwise, those adaptrs won't be operative
and the host (for returning case) or the guest will fail to
load the drivers for those adapters without exception.

0000:01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Emulex Corporation OneConnect \
             10Gb NIC (be3) (rev 02)
0000:01:00.0 0200: 19a2:0710 (rev 02)
0001:03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Emulex Corporation OneConnect \
             NIC (Lancer) (rev 10)
0001:03:00.0 0200: 10df:e220 (rev 10)

The patch adds mechanism to emulate EEH recovery (for hot reset
on parent PCI bus) on 3 gates to fix the issue: open/release one
adapter of the PE, enable EEH functionality on one adapter of the
PE.

On PowerNV platform, EEH errors are reported by IO accessors or poller
driven by interrupt. After the PE is isolated, we won't produce EEH
event for the PE. The current implementation has possibility of EEH
event lost in this way:

The interrupt handler queues one "special" event, which drives the poller.
EEH thread doesn't pick the special event yet. IO accessors kicks in, the
frozen PE is marked as "isolated" and EEH event is queued to the list.
EEH thread runs because of special event and purge all existing EEH events.
However, we never produce an other EEH event for the frozen PE. Eventually,
the PE is marked as "isolated" and we don't have EEH event to recover it.

The patch fixes the issue to keep EEH events for PEs that have been
marked as "isolated" with the help of additional "force" help to
eeh_remove_event().

Since commit cb523e09 ("powerpc/eeh: Avoid I/O access during PE
reset"), the PE is kept as frozen state on hardware level until
the PE reset is done completely. After that, we explicitly clear
the frozen state of the affected PE. However, there might have
frozen child PEs of the affected PE and we also need clear their
frozen state as well. Otherwise, the recovery is going to fail.

When PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER returned from device drivers, the
EEH core should enable I/O and DMA for the affected PE. However,
it was missed to have DMA enabled in eeh_handle_normal_event().
Besides, the frozen state of the affected PE should be cleared
after successful recovery, but we didn't.

The patch fixes both of the issues as above.

The issue was detected in a bit complicated test case where
we have multiple hierarchical PEs shown as following figure:

                +-----------------+
                | PE#3     p2p#0  |
                |          p2p#1  |
                +-----------------+
                        |
                +-----------------+
                | PE#4     pdev#0 |
                |          pdev#1 |
                +-----------------+

PE#4 (have 2 PCI devices) is the child of PE#3, which has 2 p2p
bridges. We accidentally had less-known scenario: PE#4 was removed
permanently from the system because of permanent failure (e.g.
exceeding the max allowd failure times in last hour), then we detects
EEH errors on PE#3 and tried to recover it. However, eeh_dev instances
for pdev#0/1 were not detached from PE#4, which was still connected to
PE#3. All of that was because of the fact that we rely on count-based
pcibios_release_device(), which isn't reliable enough. When doing
recovery for PE#3, we still apply hotplug on PE#4 and pdev#0/1, which
are not valid any more. Eventually, we run into kernel crash.

The patch fixes above issue from two aspects. For unplug, we simply
skip those permanently removed PE, whose state is (EEH_PE_STATE_ISOLATED
&amp;&amp; !EEH_PE_STATE_RECOVERING) and its frozen count should be greater
than EEH_MAX_ALLOWED_FREEZES. For plug, we marked all permanently
removed EEH devices with EEH_DEV_REMOVED and return 0xFF's on read
its PCI config so that PCI core will omit them.

<id>78954700631f54c3caae22647eb1f544fc4240d4</id>
<content type='text'>
We have suffered recrusive frozen PE a lot, which was caused
by IO accesses during the PE reset. Ben came up with the good
idea to keep frozen PE until recovery (BAR restore) gets done.
With that, IO accesses during PE reset are dropped by hardware
and wouldn't incur the recrusive frozen PE any more.

The patch implements the idea. We don't clear the frozen state
until PE reset is done completely. During the period, the EEH
core expects unfrozen state from backend to keep going. So we
have to reuse EEH_PE_RESET flag, which has been set during PE
reset, to return normal state from backend. The side effect is
we have to clear frozen state for towice (PE reset and clear it
explicitly), but that's harmless.

We have some limitations on pHyp. pHyp doesn't allow to enable
IO or DMA for unfrozen PE. So we don't enable them on unfrozen PE
in eeh_pci_enable(). We have to enable IO before grabbing logs on
pHyp. Otherwise, 0xFF's is always returned from PCI config space.
Also, we had wrong return value from eeh_pci_enable() for
EEH_OPT_THAW_DMA case. The patch fixes it too.

We have suffered recrusive frozen PE a lot, which was caused
by IO accesses during the PE reset. Ben came up with the good
idea to keep frozen PE until recovery (BAR restore) gets done.
With that, IO accesses during PE reset are dropped by hardware
and wouldn't incur the recrusive frozen PE any more.

The patch implements the idea. We don't clear the frozen state
until PE reset is done completely. During the period, the EEH
core expects unfrozen state from backend to keep going. So we
have to reuse EEH_PE_RESET flag, which has been set during PE
reset, to return normal state from backend. The side effect is
we have to clear frozen state for towice (PE reset and clear it
explicitly), but that's harmless.

We have some limitations on pHyp. pHyp doesn't allow to enable
IO or DMA for unfrozen PE. So we don't enable them on unfrozen PE
in eeh_pci_enable(). We have to enable IO before grabbing logs on
pHyp. Otherwise, 0xFF's is always returned from PCI config space.
Also, we had wrong return value from eeh_pci_enable() for
EEH_OPT_THAW_DMA case. The patch fixes it too.
