Re: [PATCH] mlx4: Add support for EEH error recovery

For powerpc we have an IBM internal user space tool that injects the
error on the bus with the aid of the system firmware. The kernel used
was built with the option:
CONFIG_EEH=y
and without the AER options. I will run some more tests with the AER
options activated.

I tested the powerpc error injection with

CONFIG_EEH=y
CONFIG_PCIEAER=y
CONFIG_PCIEAER_INJECT=m

and with the aer_inject module loaded and it didn't affect the EEH
recovery, the adapter recovered as expected.

I wasn't sure to follow what did you mean by "it didn't affect the EEH
recovery", how did you use the aer_inject module, is that through
user-space tool which is available for us?

Or.
