SubjectRE: HW power fault defect cause system hang on kernel 5.4.y
Date
Hi Lukas/Stuart,
Want to follow up with you whether the system hang is expected when HW has a defect keeping PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_PFD always HIGH.


Regards
Joseph

4667358dab9c backported upstream commit 8edf5332c393 ("PCI: pciehp:
Fix MSI interrupt race") to v5.4.69 just over a year ago.

I guess this happens because the first time we handle PFD,
pciehp_ist() sets "ctrl->power_fault_detected = 1", and when power_fault_detected is set, pciehp_isr() won't clear PFD from PCI_EXP_SLTSTA?

It looks like the only place we clear power_fault_detected is in pciehp_power_on_slot(), and I don't think we call that unless we have a presence detect or link status change.

It would definitely be nice if we could arrange so this hardware defect didn't cause a kernel hang.

I think the diff below is the backport of 8edf5332c393 ("PCI: pciehp:
Fix MSI interrupt race").
