If a PCI device's current driver implements the error handling callbacks EEH can use them to recover the device after an error occurs. For devices without the error handling callbacks we recover them by removing the device and re-scanning it so the PCI core puts the device back into a known good state. Currently there's no way for userspace to determine if the driver supports recovery or not which makes it difficult to write automated tests for EEH. This patch addressing that by adding a debugfs interface for querying if a specific device can be recovered or not.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
