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. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NH.

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.

Impact: minor bugfix The threshold handler on AMD (and soon on Intel) could be theoretically reentered by the hardware.

Impact: cleanup; preparation for feature The mce_amd_64 code has an own private MC threshold vector with an own interrupt handler. Since Intel needs a similar handler it makes sense to share the vector because both can not be active at the same time. I factored the common APIC handler code into a separate file which can be used by both the Intel or AMD MC code. This is needed for the next patch which adds an Intel specific CMCI handler. This patch should be a nop for AMD, it just moves some code around. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

Right now nobody cares, but the suspend/resume code will eventually want to suspend device interrupts without suspending the timer, and will depend on this flag to know.

As acpi_enter_sleep_state can fail, take this into account in do_suspend_lowlevel and don't return to the do_suspend_lowlevel's caller. This would break (currently) fpu status and preempt count. Technically, this means use `call' instead of `jmp' and `jmp' to the `resume_point' after the `call' (i.e. if acpi_enter_sleep_state returns=fails). `resume_point' will handle the restore of fpu and preempt count gracefully.

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 v2: Forward port to new patch order.

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) Cc: Venki Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NH.

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.

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.

Between 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc1 a change was made that broke IBM LS21 systems that had the HPET enabled in the BIOS, resulting in boot hangs for x86_64. Specifically commit b8ce3359, which merges the i386 and x86_64 HPET code. Prior to this commit, when we setup the HPET timers in x86_64, we did the following: hpet_writel(HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT, HPET_T0_CFG); However after the i386/x86_64 HPET merge, we do the following: cfg = hpet_readl(HPET_Tn_CFG(timer)); cfg |= HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT; hpet_writel(cfg, HPET_Tn_CFG(timer)); However on LS21s with HPET enabled in the BIOS, the HPET_T0_CFG register boots with Level triggered interrupts (HPET_TN_LEVEL) enabled. This causes the periodic interrupt to be not so periodic, and that results in the boot time hang I reported earlier in the delay calibration.

do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless of configuration in the current code. This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate() like normal C functions do. This way, unless gcc makes a copy of struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler used. This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it somewhat working. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
