* pstore: pass allocated memory region back to callerKees Cook2011-11-171-9/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The buf_lock cannot be held while populating the inodes, so make the backend pass forward an allocated and filled buffer instead. This solves the following backtrace. The effect is that "buf" is only ever used to notify the backends that something was written to it, and shouldn't be used in the read path. To replace the buf_lock during the read path, isolate the open/read/close loop with a separate mutex to maintain serialized access to the backend. Note that is is up to the pstore backend to cope if the (*write)() path is called in the middle of the read path.

* ACPI / cpuidle: Remove acpi_idle_suspend (to fix suspend regression)Rafael J. Wysocki2011-11-121-29/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit e978aa7d7d57 ("cpuidle: Move dev->last_residency update to driver enter routine; remove dev->last_state") setting acpi_idle_suspend to 1 by acpi_processor_suspend() causes the ACPI cpuidle routines to return error codes continuously, which in turn causes cpuidle to lock up (hard). However, acpi_idle_suspend doesn't appear to be useful for any particular purpose (it's racy and doesn't really provide any real protection), so it can be removed, which makes the problem go away.

The statistics needed on per-cpu basis by the governor are kept per-cpu. This simplifies the cpuidle subsystem as state registration is done by single cpu only. Having single copy of cpuidle_states saves memory. Rare case of asymmetric C-states can be handled within the cpuidle driver and architectures such as POWER do not have asymmetric C-states. Having single/global registration of all the idle states, dynamic C-state transitions on x86 are handled by the boot cpu. Here, the boot cpu would disable all the devices, re-populate the states and later enable all the devices, irrespective of the cpu that would receive the notification first.

The actual entered state may be different because of software or hardware demotion. Software demotion is done by the back-end cpuidle driver and can be accounted correctly. Current cpuidle code uses last_state field to capture the actual state entered and based on that updates the statistics for the state entered. Ideally the driver enter routine should update the counters, and it should return the state actually entered rather than the time spent there. The generic cpuidle code should simply handle where the counters live in the sysfs namespace, not updating the counters.

In function acpi_hw_clear_acpi_status, acpi_os_acquire_lock holds the lock acpi_gbl_hardware_lock before calling acpi_hw_register_write(), then without releasing acpi_gbl_hardware_lock, this function calls acpi_ev_walk_gpe_list, which tries to hold acpi_gbl_gpe_lock. Both acpi_gbl_hardware_lock and acpi_gbl_gpe_lock are at same lock-class and which might cause lock recursion deadlock. Following patch fixes this scenario by just releasing acpi_gbl_hardware_lock before calling acpi_ev_walk_gpe_list.

This causes problems when pstore is executed in an NMI context through panic() -> kmsg_dump(). This patch changes the mutex to a spin_lock_irqsave then also checks to see if we are in an NMI context. If we are in an NMI and can't get the lock, just print a message stating that and blow by the locking. All this is probably a hack around the bigger locking problem but it solves my current situation of trying to sleep in an NMI context. Tested by loading the lkdtm module and executing a HARDLOCKUP which will cause the machine to panic inside the nmi handler.

Rather than add all events, including non-PCI-hotplug events, to the hotplug queue, mjg suggested that a better approach would be to modify the acpiphp driver so only acpiphp events would be added to the kacpi_hotplug queue. It's a longer patch, but at least we maintain the benefit of having separate queues in ACPI. This, of course, is still only a workaround the problem. As Bjorn and mjg pointed out, we have to refactor a lot of this code to do the right thing but at this point it is a better to have this code working. The acpi core places all events on the kacpi_notify queue. When the acpiphp driver is loaded and a PCI card with a PCI-to-PCI bridge is removed the following call sequence occurs: cleanup_p2p_bridge() -> cleanup_bridge() -> acpi_remove_notify_handler() -> acpi_os_wait_events_complete() -> flush_workqueue(kacpi_notify_wq) which is the queue we are currently executing on and the process will hang. Move all hotplug acpiphp events onto the kacpi_hotplug workqueue. In handle_hotplug_event_bridge() and handle_hotplug_event_func() we can simply push the rest of the work onto the kacpi_hotplug queue and then avoid the deadlock.

Also fix up kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c non-data-conflicts manually: the reader_lock has been turned into a raw lock by the core locking merge, and there was a new user of it introduced in this perf core merge.

Most of it is straight forward conversion. A couple of places needed some tweaking like kgdb which separates the debug notifier from the nmi handler and mce removes a call to notify_die. [Thanks to Ying for finding out the history behind that mce call https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/27/114 And Boris responding that he would like to remove that call because of it https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/21/163] The things that get converted are the registeration/unregistration routines and the nmi handler itself has its args changed along with code removal to check which list it is on (most are on one NMI list except for kgdb which has both an NMI routine and an NMI Unknown routine).

Ratelimit is enforced on the printk to avoid too many hardware error reports in kernel log. Because there may be thousands or even millions of corrected hardware errors during system running. Currently, a simple scheme is used. That is, the total number of hardware error reporting is ratelimited. This may cause some issues in practice. For example, there are two kinds of hardware errors occurred in system. One is corrected memory error, because the fault memory address is accessed frequently, there may be hundreds error report per-second. The other is corrected PCIe AER error, it will be reported once per-second. Because they share one ratelimit control structure, it is highly possible that only memory error is reported. To avoid the above issue, an error record content based throttle algorithm is implemented in the patch. Where after the first successful reporting, all error records that are same are throttled for some time, to let other kinds of error records have the opportunity to be reported. In above example, the memory errors will be throttled for some time, after being printked. Then the PCIe AER error will be printked successfully.

| | * | | ACPI, APEI, GHES, printk support for recoverable error via NMIHuang Ying2011-08-032-18/+193

To solve the issue, a lock-less memory allocator is used to allocate memory in NMI handler, save the error record into the allocated memory, put the error record into a lock-less list. On the other hand, an irq_work is used to delay the operation from NMI context to IRQ context. The irq_work IRQ handler will remove nodes from lock-less list, printk the error record and do some further processing include recovery operation, then free the memory.

APEI bit in generic _OSC call can be used to do that, but on some machine, a special WHEA _OSC call must be used. This patch adds the support to that WHEA _OSC call.
