+-------------------

+They represent configurable ratelimits of logs per error type.

+AER Ratelimits
+--------------
+
+Since error messages can be generated for each transaction, we may see
+large volumes of errors reported. To prevent spammy devices from flooding
+the console/stalling execution, messages are throttled by device and error
+type (correctable vs. non-fatal uncorrectable). Fatal errors, including
+DPC errors, are not ratelimited.
+
+AER uses the default ratelimit of DEFAULT_RATELIMIT_BURST (10 events) over
+DEFAULT_RATELIMIT_INTERVAL (5 seconds).
+
+Ratelimits are exposed in the form of sysfs attributes and configurable.
+See Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci-devices-aer.

AER Statistics / Counters
-------------------------
When PCIe AER errors are captured, the counters / statistics are also exposed
in the form of sysfs attributes which are documented at
