This patch does not change behaviour, so it is certainly not wrong.

So lets have a look at if the bug report was actually a real bug or
just a missing annotation.

This is correct, in case of an error we are also blocked.

Agreed. This is definitely correct based on our architecture.
        case ZPCI_FS_BLOCKED:
            fib.fc |= 0x40;
+        /* fallthrough */

I think this is also correct, but  it would be good if Collin could verify.

I failed to find anything to support setting the function control
enabled bit when the function state is in error / blocked. I'm
assuming this might be some QEMU hack to get things working? I'll have
to dive further to understand why this was done this way, as it doesn't
align with how the s390x architecture is documented. It's confusing.

Might this also be a real issue? Not matching the architecture is not a
good sign...

Friendly ping. If we still want to have this patch or a fix in 4.1, we
need to find out soon...

Let's take it for now.

Just to be clear: You think that the current code is correct AFAYCS?
I also looked into this again.
There is a possibility to also be in disabled state.
 From what I can see, it makes sense that blocked and error belong to the 
enable state
so the patch seems correct.


Yes I agree. The material I referenced required me to look over a few
times and ask around a bit. The patch is good. Apologies for my
ambiguous response.
