[fix] 402818205c9e devlink: don't do reporter recovery if the state is healthy this upstream commit from kernel v5.5-rc1 which is cleanly applied on focal tree. the commit prevents reporter recovery when device in healthy state. when applied, issuing # devlink health recover pci/0000:05:00.0 reporter fw_fatal on healthy state reporter return successfully, but dmesg is clean and recover counter do not change. [test case] 1) display devlink health status # devlink health show pci/0000:05:00.0 reporter fw_fatal pci/0000:05:00.0: reporter fw_fatal state healthy error 0 recover 0 grace_period 1200000 auto_recover true 2) perform reporter recovery using devlink, # devlink health recover pci/0000:05:00.0 reporter fw_fatal 3)see that recovery was performed. # dmesg [776733.438708] mlx5_core 0000:05:00.0: mlx5_health_try_recover:316:(pid 563178): handling bad device here [776733.438717] mlx5_core 0000:05:00.0: mlx5_handle_bad_state:278:(pid 563178): Expected to see disabled NIC but it is full driver [776735.591522] mlx5_core 0000:05:00.0: mlx5_health_try_recover:328:(pid 563178): starting health recovery flow ... # devlink health show pci/0000:05:00.0 reporter fw_fatal pci/0000:05:00.0: reporter fw_fatal state healthy error 0 recover 1 grace_period 1200000 auto_recover true [Regression Potential] Very small as it is a very minor change, also this patch has been tested internally on upstream setups for a while and no degradation has been found. One obvious change is that a user cannot force devlink recovery when state is healthy but I'm not aware of such use case.
