PCIe ERR_FATAL errors mean the Link is unreliable. Components on the Link may need to be reset to return to reliable operation (PCIe r4.0, sec 6.2.2). We previously handled these errors much differently depending on whether the platform supports Downstream Port Containment (DPC) (PCIe r4.0, sec 6.2.10) or not. The AER driver has historically logged the error details, called driver-supplied pci_error_handlers callbacks, and reset the Link. This reset downstream devices, but did not remove them from the PCI subsystem, re-enumerate them, or call their driver .remove() or .probe() methods. DPC is different because the hardware automatically disables the Link when it detects ERR_FATAL, which resets downstream devices. There's no opportunity for pci_error_handlers callbacks before resetting the Link. The DPC driver removes affected devices (which calls their driver .remove() methods), brings the Link back up, and re-enumerates (which cal...
