Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] Workaround for bus/slot reset on Cavium cn8xxx root ports

Using vfio-pci on a combination of cn8xxx and some PCI devices results in
a kernel panic. This is triggered by issuing a bus or a slot reset
on the PCI device.

The solution is to prevent the reset. I've dropped the vfio patch from the
previous series as vfio-pci already checks in the reset path for
pci_bus_resetable() and pci_slot_resetable().

With this series both checks indicate that the reset is not possible
preventing the kernel panic.

Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] PCI: Allow PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET to be used on bus device

From: David Daney <[email protected]>

When checking to see if a PCI bus can safely be reset, we check to see
if any of the children have their PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET flag set.
As these devices are known not to behave well after a bus reset.

Some PCIe root port bridges also do not behave well after a bus reset,
sometimes causing the devices behind the bridge to become unusable.

Add a check for the PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET flag being set in the
bridge device to allow these bridges to be flagged, and prevent their
buses from being reset.

A follow on patch will add a quirk for this type of bridge.

This doesn't seem reliable, doesn't the user just need to remove and
reprobe the slot and the device would re-appear without this flag set?

No, I tried before to disable the slot with "echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/slots/3/power"
but that does not work as it is not supported.

I'm not familiar with the quirk types, would another one be better
suited here (even if we don't have the problem you descibed)?

The scenario I'm mentioning is to "echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<some
device under the slot>/remove", then "echo <that device address> >
/sys/bus/pci/rescan". This would break the ordering implicit in using
a fixup defined for the root port. It seems like it'd make a lot more
sense to add a test on the parent bridge more similar to how the bus
reset works. It's not the subordinate devices imposing the
no-bus-reset flag, it's the bridge device and the objects and code
should support and reflect that. Thanks,

Doing "echo <that device address> > /sys/bus/pci/rescan" after the
remove did not work for me, but maybe the format of the device address
needs to be different. Anyway, the sequence
echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<some device under the slot>/remove
echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan
still triggers the panic as you mentioned above.

I agree that the subordinate devices are not causing the issue, still
I need to make pci_slot_resetable() return false in our case.

So what if we add an additional check like:

diff --git a/drivers/pci/pci.c b/drivers/pci/pci.c
index fdf65a6..389db4b 100644
--- a/drivers/pci/pci.c

Much better, perhaps even incorporate the bus->self check for good
measure... is it possible to have a slot on a root bus? Taking
different approaches for bus vs slot reset should have been a giant red
flag that something is wrong. Thanks,
