Remove Linas, he isn't involved anymore as far as I can tell
(are you ?)

Not sure about the AER code. You are not maintaining *that* at least :-)
Maybe we should split EEH from the rest ?

Cheers,
Ben.

Ok. Split EEH from it and keep everything for "PCI ERROR RECOVERY".

Thanks,
Gavin

Not involved any more; I don't have access to equipment, don't have
time, expertise is fading.

Based on recent discussions (a month ago?) regarding AER, its clear
that at least some of the AER code is mis-designed, and that some of
the patches being submitted against it were making things worse.   I
suggest keeping an eye on that ... the problem is that both AER and
EEH share a common framework in the PCI subsystem. As bugs in AER get
discovered, there's a chance that someone will submit a patch to the
common framework, or possibly start modifying assorted drivers, which
will then break EEH ... so I don't think it is wise/safe to ignore
AER.

(The point is that AER and EEH really should work exactly the same;
they differ merely by how they talk to the root port).
