Subject: [PATCH v6 05/31] PCI: Refuse bus and slot reset below a CXL port with SBR masked
Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 21:48:12 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261016161839.2765592-6-mhonap@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261016161839.2765592-1-mhonap@nvidia.com>
From: Manish Honap <mhonap@nvidia.com>
A CXL port ignores the Secondary Bus Reset bit in Bridge Control unless
Unmask SBR is set in its CXL Port DVSEC (CXL r4.0 sec 8.1.5.2).
pci_reset_bus_function() already returns -ENOTTY in that case.
pci_reset_bus(), pci_probe_reset_bus() and the slot variants do not, so
they report success for a reset that reached no device below the port.
vfio-pci uses these for VFIO_DEVICE_GET_PCI_HOT_RESET_INFO and
VFIO_DEVICE_PCI_HOT_RESET. A user is then told a hot reset happened while
a CXL device below a masked port kept its state.
Return -ENOTTY from pci_probe_reset_slot() and pci_probe_reset_bus()
when the bridge above the bus is a CXL port with SBR masked.
pci_reset_bus() and pci_try_reset_bridge() probe before they reset, so
they refuse too.
Users see this in three places:
- the vfio hot reset ioctls fail (vfio reports -ENODEV when neither probe
succeeds),
- the reset_subordinate sysfs attribute returns -ENOTTY,
- vfio-pci groups a device in a hotplug slot below such a port by bus
instead of by slot.
Every other pci_reset_bus() caller, including the vfio bus reset at
close, is refused the same way. With one device per CXL port both
groupings have the same members.
Leave pci_bus_error_reset() as it is. AER and host bridge error recovery
call it without saving or restoring state and only map its result to
recovered or disconnect. Failing it below a masked port would turn
recovery of every CXL device there, memory expanders included, into a
disconnect; that is a CXL error handling decision, not part of this fix.
