Subject: [PATCH 1/4] powerpc: EEH: log error only after driver notification.
Date: Tue, 8 May 2007 18:33:29 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070508233329.GP4452@austin.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070508230952.GN4452@austin.ibm.com>


It turns out many/most versions of firmware enable MMIO when
the slto-error-detail rtas call is made (in violation of the
architecture). Thus, it would be best to call slot-error-detail
only after notifying device drivers of a freeze, as otherwise,
a variety of strange and unexpected things may happen.
