 A driver does not have to implement all of these callbacks; however,
 if it implements any, it must implement error_detected(). If a callback
···
 
 All drivers participating in this system must implement this call.
 The driver must return one of the following result codes:
-		- PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER:
-		  Driver returns this if it thinks it might be able to recover
-		  the HW by just banging IOs or if it wants to be given
-		  a chance to extract some diagnostic information (see
-		  mmio_enable, below).
-		- PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET:
-		  Driver returns this if it can't recover without a
-		  slot reset.
-		- PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT:
-		  Driver returns this if it doesn't want to recover at all.

 The next step taken will depend on the result codes returned by the
 drivers.
···
 If the platform is unable to recover the slot, the next step
 is STEP 6 (Permanent Failure).

 STEP 2: MMIO Enabled
--------------------
+--------------------
 The platform re-enables MMIO to the device (but typically not the
 DMA), and then calls the mmio_enabled() callback on all affected
 device drivers.
···
 without a slot reset or a link reset, it will not call this callback, and
 instead will have gone directly to STEP 3 (Link Reset) or STEP 4 (Slot Reset)

->>> Proposal: All I/O's should be done _synchronously_ from within

->>> callback will be issued due to an error happening here. However,
->>> such an error might cause IOs to be re-blocked for the whole

 The driver should return one of the following result codes:
-		- PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED
-		  Driver returns this if it thinks the device is fully
-		  functional and thinks it is ready to start
-		  normal driver operations again. There is no

 The next step taken depends on the results returned by the drivers.
 If all drivers returned PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED, then the platform
···
 Drivers for multi-function cards will need to coordinate among
 themselves as to which driver instance will perform any "one-shot"
 or global device initialization. For example, the Symbios sym53cxx2
-driver performs device init only from PCI function 0:
+driver performs device init only from PCI function 0::
 
-+       if (PCI_FUNC(pdev->devfn) == 0)
-+               sym_reset_scsi_bus(np, 0);
+	+       if (PCI_FUNC(pdev->devfn) == 0)
+	+               sym_reset_scsi_bus(np, 0);
 
-	Result codes:
-		- PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT
-		Same as above.
+Result codes:
+	- PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT
+	  Same as above.
 
 Drivers for PCI Express cards that require a fundamental reset must
 set the needs_freset bit in the pci_dev structure in their probe function.
 For example, the QLogic qla2xxx driver sets the needs_freset bit for certain
-PCI card types:
+PCI card types::
 
-+	/* Set EEH reset type to fundamental if required by hba  */
-+	if (IS_QLA24XX(ha) || IS_QLA25XX(ha) || IS_QLA81XX(ha))
-+		pdev->needs_freset = 1;
-+
+	+	/* Set EEH reset type to fundamental if required by hba  */
+	+	if (IS_QLA24XX(ha) || IS_QLA25XX(ha) || IS_QLA81XX(ha))
+	+		pdev->needs_freset = 1;
+	+
 
 Platform proceeds either to STEP 5 (Resume Operations) or STEP 6 (Permanent
 Failure).
 
->>> The current powerpc implementation does not try a power-cycle
->>> reset if the driver returned PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT.
->>> However, it probably should.
+.. note::
+
+   The current powerpc implementation does not try a power-cycle
+   reset if the driver returned PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT.

 STEP 5: Resume Operations
···
 That is, the recovery API only requires that:
 
  - There is no guarantee that interrupt delivery can proceed from any
-device on the segment starting from the error detection and until the
-slot_reset callback is called, at which point interrupts are expected
-to be fully operational.

  - There is no guarantee that interrupt delivery is stopped, that is,
-a driver that gets an interrupt after detecting an error, or that detects
-an error within the interrupt handler such that it prevents proper
-ack'ing of the interrupt (and thus removal of the source) should just
-return IRQ_NOTHANDLED. It's up to the platform to deal with that

-interrupts are routed to error-management capable slots and can deal
-with temporarily disabling that IRQ number during error processing (this
-isn't terribly complex). That means some IRQ latency for other devices
