Bjorn Helgaas 7ece141753 PCI/AER: Remove aerdriver.forceload kernel parameter
Per the PCI Firmware spec, r3.0, sec 4.5.1, on ACPI systems, the OS must
not use AER unless _OSC is present and _OSC grants AER control to the OS.
The aerdriver.forceload kernel parameter was a way to enable Linux AER
support on ACPI systems that lack _OSC or fail to grant control the the OS.

Enabling Linux AER support when the firmware doesn't want us to is a recipe
for problems, e.g., the firmware might be handling AER itself.

Remove the aerdriver.forceload kernel parameter and related supporting
code.

Bjorn Helgaas 9ff25e6b3e PCI/AER: Remove aerdriver.nosourceid kernel parameter
The aerdriver.nosourceid kernel parameter was intended for working around
broken chipsets don't supply the source ID for AER events.  We recently
added PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_AERSID, which can be set by quirks for the same
purpose.

Remove the aerdriver.nosourceid kernel parameter.  For anything other than
debugging, asking users to find and use kernel parameters is a poor user
experience.  Instead, we should add PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_AERSID quirks for any
hardware that needs it.

Hidetoshi Seto 89713422a7 PCI: aerdrv: introduce default_downstream_reset_link
I noticed that when I inject a fatal error to an endpoint via
aer-inject, aer_root_reset() is called as reset_link for a
downstream port at upstream of the endpoint:

  pcieport 0000:00:06.0: AER: Uncorrected (Fatal) error received: id=5401
   :
  pcieport 0000:52:02.0: Root Port link has been reset

It externally appears to be working, but internally issues some
accesses to PCI_ERR_ROOT_COMMAND/STATUS registers that is for
root port so not available on downstream port.

This patch introduces default_downstream_reset_link that is
a version of aer_root_reset() with no accesses to root port's
register. It is used for downstream ports that has no reset_link
function its specific.

This patch also updates related description in pcieaer-howto.txt.
Some minor fixes are included.

Huang Ying c465def6bf PCI AER: software error injection
Debugging PCIE AER code can be very difficult because it is hard
to trigger various real hardware errors. This patch provide a
software based error injection tool, which can fake various PCIE
errors with a user space helper tool named "aer-inject". Which
can be gotten from:

  http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/yhuang/

The patch fakes AER error by faking some PCIE AER related
registers and an AER interrupt for specified the PCIE device.

Zhang, Yanmin 28eb27cf08 PCI AER: support invalid error source IDs
When the bus id part of error source id is equal to 0 or nosourceid=1,
make the kernel probe the AER status registers of all devices under the
root port to find the initial error reporter.

Yu Zhao 270c66be9b PCI: fix AER capability check
The 'use pci_find_ext_capability everywhere' cleanup brought a new bug,
which makes the AER stop working.  Fix it by actually using find_ext_cap
instead of just find_cap.  Drop the unused config space size define while
we're at it.
