Some hardware error injection needs parameters, for example, it is
useful to specify memory address and memory address mask for memory
errors.

Some BIOSes allow parameters to be specified via an unpublished
extension. This patch adds support to it. The parameters will be
ignored on machines without necessary BIOS support.

Traditionally, fatal MCE will cause Linux print error log to console
then reboot. Because MCE registers will preserve their content after
warm reboot, the hardware error can be logged to disk or network after
reboot. But system may fail to warm reboot, then you may lose the
hardware error log. ERST can help here. Through saving the hardware
error log into flash via ERST before go panic, the hardware error log
can be gotten from the flash after system boot successful again.

The fatal MCE processing procedure with ERST involved is as follow:

- Hardware detect error, MCE raised
- MCE read MCE registers, check error severity (fatal), prepare error record
- Write MCE error record into flash via ERST
- Go panic, then trigger system reboot
- System reboot, /sbin/mcelog run, it reads /dev/mcelog to check flash
  for error record of previous boot via ERST, and output and clear
  them if available
- /sbin/mcelog logs error records into disk or network

ERST only accepts CPER record format, but there is no pre-defined CPER
section can accommodate all information in struct mce, so a customized
section type is defined to hold struct mce inside a CPER record as an
error section.

ERST is a way provided by APEI to save and retrieve hardware error
record to and from some simple persistent storage (such as flash).

The Linux kernel support implementation is quite simple and workable
in NMI context. So it can be used to save hardware error record into
flash in hardware error exception or NMI handler, where other more
complex persistent storage such as disk is not usable. After saving
hardware error records via ERST in hardware error exception or NMI
handler, the error records can be retrieved and logged into disk or
network after a clean reboot.

For more information about ERST, please refer to ACPI Specification
version 4.0, section 17.4.

Generic Hardware Error Source provides a way to report platform
hardware errors (such as that from chipset). It works in so called
"Firmware First" mode, that is, hardware errors are reported to
firmware firstly, then reported to Linux by firmware. This way, some
non-standard hardware error registers or non-standard hardware link
can be checked by firmware to produce more valuable hardware error
information for Linux.

Now, only SCI notification type and memory errors are supported. More
notification type and hardware error type will be added later. These
memory errors are reported to user space through /dev/mcelog via
faking a corrected Machine Check, so that the error memory page can be
offlined by /sbin/mcelog if the error count for one page is beyond the
threshold.

On some machines, Machine Check can not report physical address for
some corrected memory errors, but GHES can do that. So this simplified
GHES is implemented firstly.

There are many different UUID/GUID definitions in kernel, such as that
in EFI, many file systems, some drivers, etc. Every kernel components
need UUID/GUID has its own definition. This patch provides a unified
definition for UUID/GUID.

UUID is defined via typedef. This makes that UUID appears more like a
preliminary type, and makes the data type explicit (comparing with
implicit "u8 uuid[16]").

The binary representation of UUID/GUID can be little-endian (used by
EFI, etc) or big-endian (defined by RFC4122), so both is defined.

HEST describes error sources in detail; communicating operational
parameters (i.e. severity levels, masking bits, and threshold values)
to OS as necessary. It also allows the platform to report error
sources for which OS would typically not implement support (for
example, chipset-specific error registers).

HEST information may be needed by other subsystems. For example, HEST
PCIE AER error source information describes whether a PCIE root port
works in "firmware first" mode, this is needed by general PCIE AER
error subsystem. So a public HEST tabling parsing interface is

Some ACPI IO accessing need to be done in atomic context. For example,
APEI ERST operations may be used for permanent storage in hardware
error handler. That is, it may be called in atomic contexts such as
IRQ or NMI, etc. And, ERST/EINJ implement their operations via IO
memory/port accessing.  But the IO memory accessing method provided by
ACPI (acpi_read/acpi_write) maps the IO memory during it is accessed,
so it can not be used in atomic context. To solve the issue, the IO
memory should be pre-mapped during EINJ/ERST initializing. A linked
list is used to record which memory area has been mapped, when memory
is accessed in hardware error handler, search the linked list for the
mapped virtual address from the given physical address.

    In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register
    are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction.  In odd corner cases,
    this can cause problems.  For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero
    exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to
    restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred.  In
    this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would
    cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately.  The solution
    is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of
    the FCSR register to be writeable.  This is the behaviour of the hardware
    that the code is emulating.
    
    This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes
    to Kevin Kissell.  In Kevin's words:
    
    I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op:  case of the emulator.  The
    Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the
    CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction.  I think that
    actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would
    work a good deal better.  At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of
    the architecturally defined FPU.  If I wanted to be really, really pedantic
    (which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't
    necessarily writable.

Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention;
we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously
shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on.  To fix it
right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting
upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and
i_mutex on the inode in question.  Set it (with dont_mount(dentry))
in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places
in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD.  Setting S_DEAD
is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories
getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race
prevention.

2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash
the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint.  Fixed.

3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the
right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong)
one.  Noticed and fixed.
