Fatal machine checks can be logged to disk after boot, but only if the system did a warm reboot. That's unfortunately difficult with the default panic behaviour, which waits forever and the admin has to press the power button because modern systems usually miss a reset button. This clears the machine checks in the registers and make it impossible to log them. This patch changes the default for machine check panic to always reboot after 30s. Then the mce can be successfully logged after reboot. I believe this will improve machine check experience for any system running the X server. This is dependent on successfull boot logging of MCEs. This currently only works on Intel systems, on AMD there are quite a lot of systems around which leave junk in the machine check registers after boot, so it's disabled here. These systems will continue to default to endless waiting panic. v2: Only force panic timeout when it's shorter (H.Seto) v3: Only force timeout when there is no timeout (based on comment H.Seto) [ Fix changelog - HS ] Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NHidetoshi Seto <seto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: NH.

Assume IP on the stack is valid when either EIPV or RIPV are set. This influences whether the machine check exception handler decides to return or panic. This fixes a test case in the mce-test suite and is more compliant to the specification. This currently only makes a difference in a artificial testing scenario with the mce-test test suite. Also in addition do not force the EIPV to be valid with the exact register MSRs, and keep in trust the CS value on stack even if MSR is available.

On Intel platforms machine check exceptions are always broadcast to all CPUs. This patch makes the machine check handler synchronize all these machine checks, elect a Monarch to handle the event and collect the worst event from all CPUs and then process it first. This has some advantages: - When there is a truly data corrupting error the system panics as quickly as possible. This improves containment of corrupted data and makes sure the corrupted data never hits stable storage. - The panics are synchronized and do not reenter the panic code on multiple CPUs (which currently does not handle this well). - All the errors are reported. Currently it often happens that another CPU happens to do the panic first, but reports useless information (empty machine check) because the real error happened on another CPU which came in later. This is a big advantage on Nehalem where the 8 threads per CPU lead to often the wrong CPU winning the race and dumping useless information on a machine check. The problem also occurs in a less severe form on older CPUs. - The system can detect when no CPUs detected a machine check and shut down the system. This can happen when one CPU is so badly hung that that it cannot process a machine check anymore or when some external agent wants to stop the system by asserting the machine check pin. This follows Intel hardware recommendations. - This matches the recommended error model by the CPU designers. - The events can be output in true severity order - When a panic happens on another CPU it makes sure to be actually be able to process the stop IPI by enabling interrupts. The code is extremly careful to handle timeouts while waiting for other CPUs. It can't rely on the normal timing mechanisms (jiffies, ktime_get) because of its asynchronous/lockless nature, so it uses own timeouts using ndelay() and a "SPINUNIT" The timeout is configurable. By default it waits for upto one second for the other CPUs. This can be also disabled. From some informal testing AMD systems do not see to broadcast machine checks, so right now it's always disabled by default on non Intel CPUs or also on very old Intel systems.

In some circumstances multiple CPUs can enter mce_panic() in parallel. This gives quite confused output because they will all dump the same machine check buffer. The other problem is that they would all panic in parallel, but not process each other's shutdown IPIs because interrupts are disabled. Detect this situation early on in mce_panic(). On the first CPU entering will do the panic, the others will just wait to be killed. For paranoia reasons in case the other CPU dies during the MCE I added a 5 seconds timeout. If it expires each CPU will panic on its own again. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NHidetoshi Seto <seto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: NH.

Machine checks support waking up the mcelog daemon quickly. The original wake up code for this was pretty ugly, relying on a idle notifier and a special process flag. The reason it did it this way is that the machine check handler is not subject to normal interrupt locking rules so it's not safe to call wake_up(). Instead it set a process flag and then either did the wakeup in the syscall return or in the idle notifier. This patch adds a new "bootstraping" method as replacement. The idea is that the handler checks if it's in a state where it is unsafe to call wake_up(). If it's safe it calls it directly. When it's not safe -- that is it interrupted in a critical section with interrupts disables -- it uses a new "self IPI" to trigger an IPI to its own CPU. This can be done safely because IPI triggers are atomic with some care. The IPI is raised once the interrupts are reenabled and can then safely call wake_up(). When APICs are disabled the event is just queued and will be picked up eventually by the next polling timer. I think that's a reasonable compromise, since it should only happen quite rarely.

The exception handler should behave differently if the exception is fatal versus one that can be returned from. In the first case it should never clear any registers because these need to be preserved for logging after the next boot. Otherwise it should clear them on each CPU step by step so that other CPUs sharing the same bank don't see duplicate events. Otherwise we risk reporting events multiple times on any CPUs which have shared machine check banks, which is a common problem on Intel Nehalem which has both SMT (two CPU threads sharing banks) and shared machine check banks in the uncore. Determine early in a special pass if any event requires a panic. This uses the mce_severity() function added earlier. This is needed for the next patch. Also fixes a problem together with an earlier patch that corrected events weren't logged on a fatal MCE.

The machine check grading (as in deciding what should be done for a given register value) has to be done multiple times soon and it's also getting more complicated. So it makes sense to consolidate it into a single function. To get smaller and more straight forward and possibly more extensible code I opted towards a new table driven method. The various rules are put into a table when is then executed by a very simple interpreter. The grading engine is in a new file mce-severity.c. I also added a private include file mce-internal.h, because mce.h is already a bit too cluttered. This is dead code right now, but will be used in followon patches.

Previously mce_panic used a simple heuristic to avoid printing old so far unreported machine check events on a mce panic. This worked by comparing the TSC value at the start of the machine check handler with the event time stamp and only printing newer ones. This has a couple of issues, in particular on systems where the TSC is not fully synchronized between CPUs it could lose events or print old ones. It is also problematic with full system synchronization as it is added by the next patch. Remove the TSC heuristic and instead replace it with a simple heuristic to print corrected errors first and after that uncorrected errors and finally the worst machine check as determined by the machine check handler. This simplifies the code because there is no need to pass the original TSC value around.

Experience has shown that struct mce which is used to pass an machine check to the user space daemon currently a few limitations. Also some data which is useful to print at panic level is also missing. This patch addresses most of them. The same information is also printed out together with mce panic. struct mce can be painlessly extended in a compatible way, the mcelog user space code just ignores additional fields with a warning. - It doesn't provide a wall time timestamp. There have been a few complaints about that. Fix that by adding a 64bit time_t - It doesn't provide the exact CPU identification. This makes it awkward for mcelog to decode the event correctly, especially when there are variations in the supported MCE codes on different CPU models or when mcelog is running on a different host after a panic. Previously the administrator had to specify the correct CPU when mcelog ran on a different host, but with the more variation in machine checks now it's better to auto detect that. It's also useful for more detailed analysis of CPU events. Pass CPUID 1.EAX and the cpu vendor (as encoded in processor.h) instead. - Socket ID and initial APIC ID are useful to report because they allow to identify the failing CPU in some (not all) cases. This is also especially useful for the panic situation. This addresses one of the complaints from Thomas Gleixner earlier. - The MCG capabilities MSR needs to be reported for some advanced error processing in mcelog Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NHidetoshi Seto <seto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: NH.
