When certain PHB HW failure causes pHyp to recover PHB, it marks the PE
state as temporarily unavailable until recovery is complete. This also
triggers an EEH handler in Linux which needs to notify drivers, and perform
recovery. But before notifying the driver about the PCI error it uses
get_adapter_status()->rpaphp_get_sensor_state()->rtas_call(get-sensor-state)
operation of the hotplug_slot to determine if the slot contains a device or
not. If the slot is empty, the recovery is skipped entirely.

->eeh_handle_normal_event()
->eeh_slot_presence_check()
->get_adapter_status()
->rpaphp_get_sensor_state()
->rtas_get_sensor()
->rtas_call(get-sensor-state)
However on certain PHB failures, the RTAS call rtas_call(get-sensor-state)
returns extended busy error (9902) until PHB is recovered by pHyp. Once PHB
is recovered, the rtas_call(get-sensor-state) returns success with correct
presence status. The RTAS call interface rtas_get_sensor() loops over the
RTAS call on extended delay return code (9902) until the return value is
either success (0) or error (-1). This causes the EEH handler to get stuck
for ~6 seconds before it could notify that the PCI error has been detected
and stop any active operations. Hence with running I/O traffic, during this
6 seconds, the network driver continues its operation and hits a timeout
(netdev watchdog).

On timeouts, network driver starts dumping debug information to console
(e.g bnx2 driver calls bnx2x_panic_dump()), and go into recovery path while
pHyp is still recovering the PHB. As part of recovery, the driver tries to
reset the device and it keeps failing since every PCI read/write returns
ff's. And when EEH recovery kicks-in, the driver is unable to recover the
device. This impacts the ssh connection and leads to the system being
inaccessible. To get the NIC working again it needs a reboot or re-assign
the I/O adapter from HMC.

Hence, it becomes important to inform driver about the PCI error detection
as early as possible, so that driver is aware of PCI error and waits for
EEH handler's next action for successful recovery.
Current implementation uses rtas_get_sensor() API which blocks the slot
check state until RTAS call returns success. To avoid this, fix the PCI
hotplug driver (rpaphp) to return an error (-EBUSY) if the slot presence
state can not be detected immediately while PE is in EEH recovery state.
Change rpaphp_get_sensor_state() to invoke rtas_call(get-sensor-state)
directly only if the respective PE is in EEH recovery state, and take
actions based on RTAS return status. This way EEH handler will not be
blocked on rpaphp_get_sensor_state() and can immediately notify driver
about the PCI error and stop any active operations.
In normal cases (non-EEH case) rpaphp_get_sensor_state() will continue to
invoke rtas_get_sensor() as it was earlier with no change in existing
behavior.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
