We do have pci_channel_state (via pci_channel_offline()) which covers
the cases where the underlying error handling (such as EEH or unplug)
results in the device being offlined though this tend to be
asynchronous so it might take a few ~0's before you get it.
It's typically used to break potentially infinite loops in some
drivers.
There is no interface to check whether *an* error happened though for
the most cases it will be captured in the status register, which is
harvested (and cleared ?) by some EDAC drivers iirc...
All this lacks coordination, I agree.
Cheers,
Ben.
