cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation. This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different implementation according to it. On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

APEI firmware first mode must be turned on explicitly on some machines, otherwise there may be no GHES hardware error record for hardware error notification. APEI bit in generic _OSC call can be used to do that, but on some machine, a special WHEA _OSC call must be used. This patch adds the support to that WHEA _OSC call.

In APEI firmware first mode, hardware error is reported by hardware to firmware firstly, then firmware reports the error to Linux in a GHES error record via POLL/SCI/IRQ/NMI etc. This may result in some issues if OS has no full APEI support. So some firmware implementation will work in a back-compatible mode by default. Where firmware will only notify OS in old-fashion, without GHES record. For example, for a fatal hardware error, only NMI is signaled, no GHES record. To gain full APEI power on these machines, APEI bit in generic _OSC call can be specified to tell firmware that Linux has full APEI support. This patch adds the APEI bit support in generic _OSC call.

GHES (Generic Hardware Error Source) is used to process hardware error notification in firmware first mode. But because firmware first mode can be turned on but can not be turned off, it is unreasonable to unload the GHES module with firmware first mode turned on. To avoid confusion, this patch makes GHES can be enabled/disabled in configuration time, but not built as module and unloaded at run time.

Huang Ying authored
Some actions in APEI ERST and EINJ tables are optional, for example, ACPI_EINJ_BEGIN_OPERATION action is used to do some preparation for error injection, and firmware may choose to do nothing here. While some other actions are mandatory, for example, firmware must provide ACPI_EINJ_GET_ERROR_TYPE implementation. Original implementation treats all actions as optional (that is, can have no instructions), that may cause issue if firmware does not provide some mandatory actions. To fix this, this patch adds apei_exec_run_optional, which should be used for optional actions. The original apei_exec_run should be used for mandatory actions.

printk is used by GHES to report hardware errors. Normally, the printk will be ratelimited to avoid too many hardware error reports in kernel log. Because there may be thousands or even millions of corrected hardware errors during system running. That is different for fatal hardware error, because system will go panic as soon as possible, there will be no more than several error records. And these error records are valuable for system fault diagnosis, so they should not be ratelimited. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

i915_driver_load adds a write-combining MTRR region for the GTT aperture to improve memory speeds through the aperture. If i915_driver_load fails after this, it would not have cleaned up the MTRR. This shouldn't cause any problems, except for consuming an MTRR register. Still, it's best to clean up completely in the failure path, which is easily done by calling mtrr_del if the mtrr was successfully allocated. i915_driver_load calls i915_gem_load which register i915_gem_inactive_shrink. If i915_driver_load fails after calling i915_gem_load, the shrinker will be left registered. When called, it will access freed memory and crash. The fix is to unregister the shrinker in the failure path using code duplicated from i915_driver_unload. i915_driver_load also has some incorrect gotos in the error cleanup paths: * After failing to initialize the GTT (which cannot happen, btw, intel_gtt_get returns a fixed (non-NULL) value), it tries to free the uninitialized WC IO mapping. Fixed this by changing the target from out_iomapfree to out_rmmap Signed-off-by: Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com> Tested-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com>

Just compiling pseries in the kernel causes it to override memory_block_size_bytes() regardless of what is the runtime platform. This cleans up the implementation of that function, fixing a bug or two while at it, so that it's harmless (and potentially useful) for other platforms. Without this, bugs in that code would trigger a WARN_ON() in drivers/base/memory.c when booting some different platforms. If/when we have another platform supporting memory hotplug we might want to either move that out to a generic place or make it a ppc_md. callback.
