[ Upstream commit 33bc69cf66 ]
VFIO EEH recovery for PCI passthrough devices fails on PowerNV and pseries
platforms due to missing host-side PE bridge reconfiguration. In the
current implementation, eeh_pe_configure() only performs RTAS or OPAL-based
bridge reconfiguration for native host devices, but skips it entirely for
PEs managed through VFIO in guest passthrough scenarios.
This leads to incomplete EEH recovery when a PCI error affects a
passthrough device assigned to a QEMU/KVM guest. Although VFIO triggers the
EEH recovery flow through VFIO_EEH_PE_ENABLE ioctl, the platform-specific
bridge reconfiguration step is silently bypassed. As a result, the PE's
config space is not fully restored, causing subsequent config space access
failures or EEH freeze-on-access errors inside the guest.
This patch fixes the issue by ensuring that eeh_pe_configure() always
invokes the platform's configure_bridge() callback (e.g.,
pseries_eeh_phb_configure_bridge) even for VFIO-managed PEs. This ensures
that RTAS or OPAL calls to reconfigure the PE bridge are correctly issued
on the host side, restoring the PE's configuration space after an EEH
event.
This fix is essential for reliable EEH recovery in QEMU/KVM guests using
VFIO PCI passthrough on PowerNV and pseries systems.
Tested with:
- QEMU/KVM guest using VFIO passthrough (IBM Power9,(lpar)Power11 host)
- Injected EEH errors with pseries EEH errinjct tool on host, recovery
verified on qemu guest.
- Verified successful config space access and CAP_EXP DevCtl restoration
after recovery
