    powerpc/powernv: Use kernel crash path for machine checks · 6fcd6baa
    Nicholas Piggin 提交于
    There are quite a few machine check exceptions that can be caused by
    kernel bugs. To make debugging easier, use the kernel crash path in
    cases of synchronous machine checks that occur in kernel mode, if that
    would not result in the machine going straight to panic or crash dump.
    
    There is a downside here that die()ing the process in kernel mode can
    still leave the system unstable. panic_on_oops will always force the
    system to fail-stop, so systems where that behaviour is important will
    still do the right thing.
    
    As a test, when triggering an i-side 0111b error (ifetch from foreign
    address) in kernel mode process context on POWER9, the kernel currently
    dies quickly like this:
    
      Severe Machine check interrupt [Not recovered]
        NIP [ffff000000000000]: 0xffff000000000000
        Initiator: CPU
        Error type: Real address [Instruction fetch (foreign)]

      Call Trace:

      Trying to free IRQ 496 from IRQ context!
    
    After this patch, the process is killed and the kernel continues with
    this message, which gives enough information to identify the offending
    branch (i.e., with CFAR):
