x86/MCE: Remove min interval polling limitation

2018-07-28T05:43:17Z

commit fbdb328c6bae0a7c78d75734a738b66b86dffc96 upstream. commit b3b7c4795c ("x86/MCE: Serialize sysfs changes") introduced a min interval limitation when setting the check interval for polled MCEs. However, the logic is that 0 disables polling for corrected MCEs, see Documentation/x86/x86_64/machinecheck. The limitation prevents disabling. Remove this limitation and allow the value 0 to disable polling again.

x86/MCE: Serialize sysfs changes

2018-03-18T10:15:42Z

commit b3b7c4795ccab5be71f080774c45bbbcc75c2aaf upstream. The check_interval file in /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheck directory is a global timer value for MCE polling. If it is changed by one CPU, mce_restart() broadcasts the event to other CPUs to delete and restart the MCE polling timer and __mcheck_cpu_init_timer() reinitializes the mce_timer variable. If more than one CPU writes a specific value to the check_interval file concurrently, mce_timer is not protected from such concurrent accesses and all kinds of explosions happen. Since only root can write to those sysfs variables, the issue is not a big deal security-wise. However, concurrent writes to these configuration variables is void of reason so the proper thing to do is to serialize the access with a mutex.

x86/mce/AMD: Give a name to MCA bank 3 when accessed with legacy MSRs

2017-04-30T03:49:14Z

commit 29f72ce3e4d18066ec75c79c857bee0618a3504b upstream. MCA bank 3 is reserved on systems pre-Fam17h, so it didn't have a name. However, MCA bank 3 is defined on Fam17h systems and can be accessed using legacy MSRs. Without a name we get a stack trace on Fam17h systems when trying to register sysfs files for bank 3 on kernels that don't recognize Scalable MCA. Call MCA bank 3 "decode_unit" since this is what it represents on Fam17h. This will allow kernels without SMCA support to see this bank on Fam17h+ and prevent the stack trace. This will not affect older systems since this bank is reserved on them, i.e. it'll be ignored. Tested on AMD Fam15h and Fam17h systems.

x86: Clean up cr4 manipulation

2015-06-28T17:39:27Z

[ Upstream commit 375074cc736ab1d89a708c0a8d7baa4a70d5d476 ] CR4 manipulation was split, seemingly at random, between direct (write_cr4) and using a helper (set/clear_in_cr4). Unfortunately, the set_in_cr4 and clear_in_cr4 helpers also poke at the boot code, which only a small subset of users actually wanted. This patch replaces all cr4 access in functions that don't leave cr4 exactly the way they found it with new helpers cr4_set_bits, cr4_clear_bits, and cr4_set_bits_and_update_boot.

x86, mce, severity: Extend the the mce_severity mechanism to handle UCNA/DEFERRED error

2015-06-09T17:43:45Z

[ Upstream commit e3480271f59253cb60d030aa5e615bf00b731fea ] Until now, the mce_severity mechanism can only identify the severity of UCNA error as MCE_KEEP_SEVERITY. Meanwhile, it is not able to filter out DEFERRED error for AMD platform. This patch extends the mce_severity mechanism for handling UCNA/DEFERRED error. In order to do this, the patch introduces a new severity level - MCE_UCNA/DEFERRED_SEVERITY. In addition, mce_severity is specific to machine check exception, and it will check MCIP/EIPV/RIPV bits. In order to use mce_severity mechanism in non-exception context, the patch also introduces a new argument (is_excp) for mce_severity. `is_excp' is used to explicitly specify the calling context of mce_severity.

Merge branch 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu

2014-10-15T05:48:18Z

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo: "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other inconsistent operations. This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr(). Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr(). This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully remove the obsolete accessors" * 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: (38 commits) irqchip: Properly fetch the per cpu offset percpu: Resolve ambiguities in __get_cpu_var/cpumask_var_t -fix ia64: sn_nodepda cannot be assigned to after this_cpu conversion.

x86/mce: Avoid showing repetitive message from intel_init_thermal()

2014-09-19T10:56:05Z

intel_init_thermal() is called from a) at the time of system initializing and b) at the time of system resume to initialize thermal monitoring. In case when thermal monitoring is handled by SMI, we get to know it via printk(). Currently it gives the message at both cases, but its okay if we get it only once and no need to get the same message at every time system resumes. So, limit showing this message only at system boot time by avoid showing at system resume and reduce abusing kernel log buffer.

x86: Replace __get_cpu_var uses

2014-08-26T17:45:49Z

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var))) __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. Transformations done to __get_cpu_var() 1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y); 2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]); int *x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y); 3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu variable. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int x = __get_cpu_var(y) Converts to int x = __this_cpu_read(y); 4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y); struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x)); 5. Assignment to a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y) __get_cpu_var(y) = x; Converts to __this_cpu_write(y, x); 6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); __get_cpu_var(y)++ Converts to __this_cpu_inc(y) Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: x86@kernel.org Acked-by: H.
