Since commit 7b42d97e99d3 ("PCI/ERR: Always report current recovery
status for udev") AER uses the result of error_detected() as parameter
to pci_uevent_ers(). As pci_uevent_ers() however does not handle
PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET this results in a missing uevent for the
beginning of recovery if drivers request a reset. Fix this by treating
PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET as beginning recovery.[...]

I note that PCI_ERS_RESULT_NO_AER_DRIVER is also missing in that switch/case statement. I guess for the patch to be complete, it needs to be added to the PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT case. Do you agree? If you do and respin the patch with that change, feel free to add my Reviewed-by. Since you're an IBMer and EEH is maintained by IBM, I'm wondering if it would be possible to amend EEH to report "rc" instead of PCI_ERS_RESULT_NONE in eeh_report_error()? There are multiple deviations between AER and EEH, this is one of them. It would be good to move towards a more consistent recovery process across platforms. Thanks, Lukas
