The PCIe spec classifies errors as either "Correctable" or "Uncorrectable". Previously we printed these as "Corrected" or "Uncorrected". To avoid confusion, use the same terms as the spec. One confusing situation is when one agent detects an error, but another agent is responsible for recovery, e.g., by re-attempting the operation. The first agent may log a "correctable" error but it has not yet been corrected. The recovery agent must report an uncorrectable error if it is unable to recover. If we print the first agent's error as "Corrected", it gives the false impression that it has already been resolved. Sample message change: - pcieport 0000:00:1c.5: AER: Corrected error received: 0000:00:1c.5 + pcieport 0000:00:1c.5: AER: Correctable error received: 0000:00:1c.5 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231206224231.732765-2-helgaas@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Reviewed-by: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan <sathyanarayanan.kuppuswamy@linux.intel.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
