Initially, the series of patches is built based on 3.10.RC1 and the patchset
doesn't intend to enable EEH functionality for PHB3 for now. Obviously, PHB3
EEH support on PowerNV platform is something to do in future.
The series of patches intends to support EEH for PowerNV platform. The EEH
core already supports multiple probe methods: device tree nodes and PCI
devices. For EEH on PowerNV, we're using PCI devices to do EEH probe, which
is different from the probe type used on pSeries platform. Another point I
should mention is that the overall EEH would be split up to 3 layers: EEH
core, platform layer and I/O chip layer. It would make the EEH on PowerNV
platform can achieve more flexibility and support more I/O chips in future.
Besides, the EEH event can be produced by detecting 0xFF's from reading
PCI config or I/O registers, or from interrupts dedicated for EEH error
reporting. So we have to handle the EEH error interrupts. On the other hand,
the EEH events will be processed by EEH core like pSeries platform does.
We will have exported debugfs entries ("/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/EEH/PHBx"),
which allows you to control the 0xD10 register in order to force errors like
frozen PE and fenced PHB for testing purpose. The following example is usualy
what I'm using to control that register. The patchset has been verified on
Firebird-L machine where I have 2 Emulex ethernet card on PHB#0. I keep pinging
to one of the ethernet cards (eth0) from external and then use following
commands
to produce frozen PE or fenced PHB errors. Eventually, the errors can be
recovered
and the ethernet card is reachable after temporary connection lost.
Trigger frozen PE:
echo 0x0000000002000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/EEH/PHB0
sleep 1
echo 0x0 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/EEH/PHB0
Trigger fenced PHB:
echo 0x8000000000000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/EEH/PHB0
Change log
==========
v1 -> v2:
* Rebase to 3.10.RC3
* Don't fetch PE state for the case of fenced PHB. It usually takes long
time and possiblly incurs softlock warning. It requires the
corresponding
changes for the underly firmware
* Add debugfs entries so that we can inject errors like frozen PE and
fenced PHB for testing purpose
