Previously we accumulated hotplug events, then processed them, essentially
like this:
events = 0
do {
status = read(Slot Status)
status &= EVENT_MASK # only look at events
events |= status # accumulate events
write(Slot Status, events) # clear events
} while (status)
process events
The problem is that as soon as we clear events in Slot Status, the hardware
may send notifications for new events, and we lose information about the
first events. For example, we might see two Presence Detect Changed
events, but lose the fact that the slot was temporarily empty:
read PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_PDC set, PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_PDS clear # slot empty
write PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_PDC # clear PDC event
read PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_PDC set, PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_PDS set # slot occupied
The current code does not process a removal; it only processes the
insertion, which fails because we didn't remove the original device.
To avoid this problem, read Slot Status once and process all the events
before reading it again, like this:
do {
read events
clear events
process events
} while (events)
