okay so bestie, you're in the Kernel API Manual and this is the page for pci_dpc_recovered β€” literally the little function that tells you whether DPC fired and then, like, actually got its life together πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

pci_dpc_recovered β€” whether DPC triggered and has recovered successfully πŸ‘‘


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool pci_dpc_recovered (struct pci_dev *pdev );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • pdev β€” a PCI device 🫢 (yes that's the whole description, she's lowkey mysterious)

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So here's the vibe: this returns true if DPC was triggered for pdev and it has recovered successfully. periodt ✨

If the recovery hasn't completed yet? It waits for it. no cutting the line, no skipping ahead, we sit there until it's done 😭

And why do we care? Because it's called from the PCIe hotplug driver, so it can recognize and ignore Link Down/Up events caused by DPC. it's giving "oh that? that's just DPC, ignore her" πŸ™ˆπŸ’€
