      x86, mce, cmci: add CMCI support · 88ccbedd
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Impact: Major new feature
      
      Intel CMCI (Corrected Machine Check Interrupt) is a new
      feature on Nehalem CPUs. It allows the CPU to trigger
      interrupts on corrected events, which allows faster
      reaction to them instead of with the traditional
      polling timer.
      
      Also use CMCI to discover shared banks. Machine check banks
      can be shared by CPU threads or even cores. Using the CMCI enable
      bit it is possible to detect the fact that another CPU already
      saw a specific bank. Use this to assign shared banks only
      to one CPU to avoid reporting duplicated events.
      
      On CPU hot unplug bank sharing is re discovered. This is done
      using a thread that cycles through all the CPUs.
      
      To avoid races between the poller and CMCI we only poll
      for banks that are not CMCI capable and only check CMCI
      owned banks on a interrupt.
      
      The shared banks ownership information is currently only used for
      CMCI interrupts, not polled banks.
      
      The sharing discovery code follows the algorithm recommended in the
      IA32 SDM Vol3a 14.5.2.1
      
      The CMCI interrupt handler just calls the machine check poller to
      pick up the machine check event that caused the interrupt.
      
      I decided not to implement a separate threshold event like
      the AMD version has, because the threshold is always one currently
      and adding another event didn't seem to add any value.
      
      Some code inspired by Yunhong Jiang's Xen implementation,
      which was in term inspired by a earlier CMCI implementation
      by me.

      x86, mce, cmci: use polled banks bitmap in machine check poller · ee031c31
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Define a per cpu bitmap that contains the banks polled by the machine
      check poller. This is needed for the CMCI code in the next patches
      to be able to disable polling on specific banks.
      
      The bank by default contains all banks, so there is no behaviour
      change. Only future code will remove some banks from the polling
      set.

          x86, mce: reinitialize per cpu features on resume
      
      introduced a call to mce_cpu_features() in the resume path, in order
      for the MCE machinery to get properly reinitialized after a resume.
      However, this function (and its successors) was flagged __cpuinit,
      which becomes __init on UP configurations (on SMP suspend/resume
      requires CPU hotplug and so this would not be seen.)
      
      Remove the offending __cpuinit annotations for mce_cpu_features() and
      its successor functions.

      x86, mce: separate correct machine check poller and fatal exception handler · b79109c3
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Impact: cleanup, performance enhancement
      
      The machine check poller is diverging more and more from the fatal
      exception handler. Instead of adding more special cases separate the code
      paths completely. The corrected poll path is actually quite simple,
      and this doesn't result in much code duplication.
      
      This makes both handlers much easier to read and results in
      cleaner code flow.  The exception handler now only needs to care
      about uncorrected errors, which also simplifies the handling of multiple
      errors. The corrected poller also now always runs in standard interrupt
      context and does not need to do anything special to handle NMI context.
      
      Minor behaviour changes:
      - MCG status is now not cleared on polling.
      - Only the banks which had corrected errors get cleared on polling
      - The exception handler only clears banks with errors now

      x86, mce: implement dynamic machine check banks support · 0d7482e3
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Impact: cleanup; making code future proof; memory saving on small systems
      
      This patch replaces the hardcoded max number of machine check banks with 
      dynamic allocation depending on what the CPU reports. The sysfs
      data structures and the banks array are dynamically allocated.
      
      There is still a hard bank limit (128) because the mcelog protocol uses
      banks >= 128 as pseudo banks to escape other events. But we expect
      that 128 banks is beyond any reasonable CPU for now.
      
      This supersedes an earlier patch by Venki, but it solves the problem
      more completely by making the limit fully dynamic (up to the 128
      boundary).
      
      This saves some memory on machines with less than 6 banks because
      they won't need sysdevs for unused ones and also allows to 
      use sysfs to control these banks on possible future CPUs with
      more than 6 banks.
      
      This is an updated patch addressing Venki's comments.  I also added in
      another patch from Thomas which fixed the error allocation path (that
      patch was previously separated)

      x86, mce: switch machine check polling to per CPU timer · 52d168e2
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Impact: Higher priority bug fix
      
      The machine check poller runs a single timer and then broadcasted an
      IPI to all CPUs to check them. This leads to unnecessary
      synchronization between CPUs. The original CPU running the timer has
      to wait potentially a long time for all other CPUs answering. This is
      also real time unfriendly and in general inefficient.
      
      This was especially a problem on systems with a lot of events where
      the poller run with a higher frequency after processing some events.
      There could be more and more CPU time wasted with this, to
      the point of significantly slowing down machines.
      
      The machine check polling is actually fully independent per CPU, so
      there's no reason to not just do this all with per CPU timers.  This
      patch implements that.
      
      Also switch the poller also to use standard timers instead of work
      queues. It was using work queues to be able to execute a user program
      on a event, but mce_notify_user() handles this case now with a
      separate callback. So instead always run the poll code in in a
      standard per CPU timer, which means that in the common case of not
      having to execute a trigger there will be less overhead.
      
      This allows to clean up the initialization significantly, because
      standard timers are already up when machine checks get init'ed.  No
      multiple initialization functions.
      
      Thanks to Thomas Gleixner for some help.

      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Impact: Needed for bug fix in next patch
      
      This relaxes the requirement that mce_notify_user has to run in process
      context. Useful for future changes, but also leads to cleaner
      behaviour now. Now instead mce_notify_user can be called directly
      from interrupt (but not NMI) context.
      
      The work queue only uses a single global work struct, which can be done safely
      because it is always free to reuse before the trigger function is executed.
      This way no events can be lost.

      Impact: low priority bug fix
      
      This removes part of a a patch I added myself some time ago. After some
      consideration the patch was a bad idea. In particular it stopped machine check
      exceptions during code patching.
      
      To quote the comment:
      
              * MCEs only happen when something got corrupted and in this
              * case we must do something about the corruption.
              * Ignoring it is worse than a unlikely patching race.
              * Also machine checks tend to be broadcast and if one CPU
              * goes into machine check the others follow quickly, so we don't
              * expect a machine check to cause undue problems during to code
              * patching.
      
      So undo the machine check related parts of
      8f4e956b NMIs are still disabled.
      
      This only removes code, the only additions are a new comment.
