2009-06-16PCI AER: software error injectionHuang Ying
Debugging PCIE AER code can be very difficult because it is hard to trigger various real hardware errors. This patch provide a software based error injection tool, which can fake various PCIE errors with a user space helper tool named "aer-inject". Which can be gotten from: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/yhuang/ The patch fakes AER error by faking some PCIE AER related registers and an AER interrupt for specified the PCIE device.

2009-06-11PCI: Add support for turning PCIe ECRC on or offAndrew Patterson
Adds support for PCI Express transaction layer end-to-end CRC checking (ECRC). This patch will enable/disable ECRC checking by setting/clearing the ECRC Check Enable and/or ECRC Generation Enable bits for devices that support ECRC. The ECRC setting is controlled by the "pci=ecrc=<policy>" command-line option. If this option is not set or is set to 'bios", the enable and generation bits are left in whatever state that firmware/BIOS set them to. The "off" setting turns them off, and the "on" option turns them on (if the device supports it). Turning ECRC on or off can be a data integrity versus performance tradeoff. In theory, turning it on will catch more data errors, turning it off means possibly better performance since CRC does not need to be calculated by the PCIe hardware and packet sizes are reduced.

2007-07-11PCI: fix AER driver error informationZhang, Yanmin
Below patch fixes aer driver error information and enables aer driver although CONFIG_ACPI=n. As a matter of fact, the new patch is created from below 2 patches plus a minor patch apply fuzz fixing. Because the second patch fixed a compilation error introduced by the first patch, I merge them to facilitate bisect. 1) http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=117783233918191&w=2; 2) http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm-commits&m=118046936720790&w=2 Signed-off-by: Zhang Yanmin <yanmin.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-09-26PCI-Express AER implemetation: AER core and aerdriverZhang, Yanmin
Patch 3 implements the core part of PCI-Express AER and aerdrv port service driver. When a root port service device is probed, the aerdrv will call request_irq to register irq handler for AER error interrupt. When a device sends an PCI-Express error message to the root port, the root port will trigger an interrupt, by either MSI or IO-APIC, then kernel would run the irq handler. The handler collects root error status register and schedules a work. The work will call the core part to process the error based on its type (Correctable/non-fatal/fatal). As for Correctable errors, the patch chooses to just clear the correctable error status register of the device. As for the non-fatal error, the patch follows generic PCI error handler rules to call the error callback functions of the endpoint's driver. If the device is a bridge, the patch chooses to broadcast the error to downstream devices. As for the fatal error, the patch resets the pci-express link and follows generic PCI error handler rules to call the error callback functions of the endpoint's driver. If the device is a bridge, the patch chooses to broadcast the error to downstream devices. Signed-off-by: Zhang Yanmin <yanmin.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
