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_state()->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.

However on certain PHB failures, the rtas call get-sensor-state() returns
extended busy error (9902) until PHB is recovered by phyp. Once PHB is
recovered, the 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 go into ffdc capture mode
and reset path assuming the PCI device is in fatal condition. This
sometimes causes EEH recovery to fail. This impacts the ssh connection and
leads to the system being inaccessible.

------------

To avoid this issue, fix the pci hotplug driver (rpaphp) to return an error
if the slot presence state can not be detected immediately while PE is in
EEH recovery state. Current implementation uses rtas_get_sensor() API which
blocks the slot check state until rtas call returns success. 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.

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.

I assume ffdc == First Failure Data Capture (please expand and remove
the redundant "capture")  Is this a powerpc thing?  "ffdc" doesn't
occur in drivers/net, so I don't know what network driver this refers
to.

I'm not too clear on what the problem is.  I guess you don't want the
netdev watchdog timeout.  Is the NIC still operating?  It's just the
PHB leading to the NIC that has an issue?

Apparently the remedy is to return -ENODEV (from SLOT_NOT_USABLE ==
-9002) from rpaphp_get_sensor_state() instead of doing the retries.
It would be good to explain why *that* is safe.

Nits:
Follow historical convention in subject line.
s/phyp/pHyp/   (or whatever the normal styling is)
s/pe/PE/       (used inconsistently above and in comment)
s/rtas/RTAS/   (Michael mentioned this already, but I guess you missed some)
s/pci/PCI/
s/ffdc/First Failure Data Capture/   (or the correct expansion)
Make similar changes in the comment below.

I would say "isolated" instead of "not unisolated", but I suppose this
follows language in the spec.  If so, you should follow the spec.

This basically duplicates rtas_error_rc().  Why do we need two copies?

I guess you don't need locking to ensure that child_list doesn't
become empty between the list_empty() and the list_first_entry()?
I didn't see locking at other places that traverse it, but it's not
obvious to me what protects it.

I'd probably make rtas_to_errno(0) return 0, then do:

"not unisolated" is the spec language.

It treats RTAS_BUSY, RTAS_EXTENDED_DELAY_MIN...RTAS_EXTENDED_DELAY_MAX
differently, which is part of the point of this change.

Aside: rtas_error_rc() (from powerpc's rtas.c) is badly named. Its
conversions make sense for only a handful of RTAS calls. RTAS error
codes have function-specific interpretations.

I think it would reduce confusion overall to:

  - add RTAS_HARDWARE_ERROR, RTAS_INVALID_SENSOR to rtas.h

  - rename and move SLOT_UNISOLATED, etc to rtas.h; they look
    analogous to function-specific things like RTAS_SUSPEND_ABORTED

  - change rtas_error_rc() to use the RTAS_HARDWARE_ERROR, etc
    constants

  - use the constants (SLOT_NOT_USABLE) instead of "9902" in the
    commit log and code comments

Maybe there's a case for factoring out the generic error codes and
have rtas_to_errno() (which sounds like maybe it should be renamed as
well) handle the function-specific part and fall back to the generic
one otherwise:

  int rtas_to_errno(int rtas_rc)
  {
    switch (rtas_rc) {
    case SLOT_UNISOLATED:
    case SLOT_NOT_UNISOLATED:
      return -EINVAL;
    case SLOT_NOT_USABLE:
      return -ENODEV;
    ...
    default:
      return rtas_error_rc(rtas_rc);
    }
  }

Sorry for delay in response.

What I meant by ffdc here is that bnx2 driver calls bnx2x_panic_dump()
soon after netdev watchdog timeout, and starts dumping additional debug
information to console.

Yes, NIC stops functioning. Since EEH handler delays the reporting of
PCI error to driver, it starts its own recovery while pHyp is still
recovering the PHB.  As part of recovery, 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.
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. This way driver is aware of PCI
error and waits for EEH handler's next action for successful recovery.
This way driver does not try its own recovery to mess things up while
pHyp is still recovering the PHB.

This remedy is only for PE which is in EEH recovery mode. In all other
cases there is no functionality change. 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.

Maybe I can switch to use of list_first_entry_or_null() ?

Agree.
