There is an issue with the hotplug operation when it's done on the bridge/switch slot. The bridge-port and devices behind the bridge, which become offline by hot-unplug operation, don't get hot-plugged/enabled by doing hot-plug operation on that slot. Only the first port of the bridge gets enabled and the remaining port/devices remain unplugged. The hot plug/unplug operation is done by the hotplug driver (drivers/pci/ hotplug/pnv_php.c). This behavior is due to missing code for the switch/bridge. The existing driver depends on pci_hp_add_devices() function for device enablement. This function calls pci_scan_slot() on only one device-node/port of the bridge, not on all the siblings' device-node/port. The missing code needs to be added which will find all the sibling device-nodes/bridge-ports and will run explicit pci_scan_slot() on those. A new function has been added for this purpose which is invoked from pci_hp_add_devices(). This new function traverse_siblings_and_scan_slot() gets all the sibling bridge-ports by traversal and explicitly invokes pci_scan_slot() on them.

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 reStructuredText 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.
