#1625754 — [PATCH v2] PCI: disable SERR for kdump kernel

Found one system with infiniband with SRIOV enabled, kdump kernel
SRIOV BAR probing trigger one pci fatal error.
That assert error pin, and host get reset by BMC.

We can just ignore that error to let kernel go on
and kdump to create vmcore.

-v2: add debug print out

This sounds like something that needs to be done while shutting down
the first kernel as part of the kdump procedure rather than boot of 
the kdump kernel in pci setup.

In general, I would rather make the new kernel more tolerant than make
assumptions about how the old kernel shut down.  I don't know if
there's an explicit statement of kexec philosophy on this (it'd be
nice if there were), but it seems like a more robust strategy, e.g.,
less prone to revlock issues between the old/new kernels.

What if the secondary kernel never gets a chance to boot due to excessive
errors? Code might not even make to the point where PCI driver is executed.

If I remember this right, kexec is already doing PCI cleanup operation during
shutdown and it is also calling the shutdown hook of device drivers. 

(I recently added a shutdown hook to my own HIDMA driver for the very same reason)

The requirement for the second kernel boot is not to have any pending DMA
and IRQs so that secondary kernel can boot safely.

Maybe, the right thing is to look for a way to put PCI into some safe mode.
There should be some code there disabling the COMMAND enable bits if not already.

This code could be added to the same place.

469         /*
470          * If this is a kexec reboot, turn off Bus Master bit on the

473          * If it is not a kexec reboot, firmware will hit the PCI
474          * devices with big hammer and stop their DMA any way.
475          */
476         if (kexec_in_progress && (pci_dev->current_state <= PCI_D3hot))
477                 pci_clear_master(pci_dev);

For kdump path, first kernel shutdown path is not called.

We have to do sth in second kernel instead.

Thanks

I didn't know that. Bjorn's compatibility point is also a concern. 
Ideally you want something in both places.
