Do you have any pointers to these handy? I'm pretty sure there's an issue in our AER handling where we don't clear the error correctly, so we keep complaining about the same error again and again. My preferences for how to handle this situation: 1) Fix our AER handling (if it's indeed broken; I could be wrong) 2) Automatically rate-limit corrected error reporting 3) As a last resort, some parameter like this patch Reports like https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111601 have been around for an embarrassingly long time, but I guess nobody has had time to really dig into them. My theory about our AER problem is here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20160215171423.GA12641@localhost/ > An usual reply/solution is to completely disable aer with 'noaer' pci > parameter.
