From e2aa34ce80a26d24a0333da9402d533885f239c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Guilherme G. Piccoli" Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2022 19:49:02 -0300 Subject: powerpc/setup: Refactor/untangle panic notifiers The panic notifiers infrastructure is a bit limited in the scope of the callbacks - basically every kind of functionality is dropped in a list that runs in the same point during the kernel panic path. This is not really on par with the complexities and particularities of architecture / hypervisors' needs, and a refactor is ongoing. As part of this refactor, it was observed that powerpc has 2 notifiers, with mixed goals: one is just a KASLR offset dumper, whereas the other aims to hard-disable IRQs (necessary on panic path), warn firmware of the panic event (fadump) and run low-level platform-specific machinery that might stop kernel execution and never come back. Clearly, the 2nd notifier has opposed goals: disable IRQs / fadump should run earlier while low-level platform actions should run late since it might not even return. Hence, this patch decouples the notifiers splitting them in three: - First one is responsible for hard-disable IRQs and fadump, should run early; - The kernel KASLR offset dumper is really an informative notifier, harmless and may run at any moment in the panic path; - The last notifier should run last, since it aims to perform low-level actions for specific platforms, and might never return. It is also only registered for 2 platforms, pseries and ps3. The patch better documents the notifiers and clears the code too, also removing a useless header. Currently no functionality change should be observed, but after the planned panic refactor we should expect more panic reliability with this patch. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.
