Per PCIe r5.0, sec. 6.7.1.8:\n\n If a power controller detects a main power fault on the hot-plug slot,\n it must automatically set its internal main power fault latch [...].\n The main power fault latch is cleared when software turns off power to\n the hot-plug slot.\n\nThe stickiness used to cause interrupt storms and infinite loops which\nwere fixed in 2009 by commits 5651c48cfafe (\"PCI pciehp: fix power fault\ninterrupt storm problem\") and 99f0169c17f3 (\"PCI: pciehp: enable\nsoftware notification on empty slots\").\n\nUnfortunately in 2020 the infinite loop issue was inadvertently\nreintroduced by commit 8edf5332c393 (\"PCI: pciehp: Fix MSI interrupt\nrace\"): The hardirq handler pciehp_isr() clears the PFD bit until\npciehp's power_fault_detected flag is set. That happens in the IRQ\nthread pciehp_ist(), which never learns of the event because the hardirq\nhandler is stuck in an infinite loop. Fix by setting the\npower_fault_detected flag already in the hardirq handler." } ], "metrics": {}, "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1db58c6584a72102e98af2e600ea184ddaf2b8af", "source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/23584c1ed3e15a6f4bfab8dc5a88d94ab929ee12", "source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3b4c966fb156ff3e70b2526d964952ff7c1574d9", "source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/464da38ba827f670deac6500a1de9a4f0f44c41d", "source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6d6f1f0dac3e3441ecdb1103d4efb11b9ed24dd5", "source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ff27f7d0333cff89ec85c419f431aca1b38fb16a", "source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67" } ] }
