When config pci_ops.read() can detect failed PCI transactions, the data returned to the CPU is PCI_ERROR_RESPONSE (~0 or 0xffffffff). Obviously a successful PCI config read may *also* return that data if a config register happens to contain ~0, so it doesn't definitively indicate an error unless we know the register cannot contain ~0. Use PCI_POSSIBLE_ERROR() to check the response we get when we read data from hardware. This unifies PCI error response checking and makes error checks consistent and easier to find.

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 Restructured Text 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.
