ACPI, APEI, Use ERST for persistent storage of MCE

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

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

offlined by /sbin/mcelog if the error count for one page is beyond the

On some machines, Machine Check can not report physical address for

tcp: fix MD5 (RFC2385) support

TCP MD5 support uses percpu data for temporary storage. It currently
disables preemption so that same storage cannot be reclaimed by another
thread on same cpu.

We also have to make sure a softirq handler wont try to use also same
context. Various bug reports demonstrated corruptions.

Fix is to disable preemption and BH.

14 years ago MIPS FPU emulator: allow Cause bits of FCSR to be writeable by ctc1
Shane McDonald [Fri, 7 May 2010 05:26:57 +0000 (23:26 -0600)]
MIPS FPU emulator: allow Cause bits of FCSR to be writeable by ctc1

    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.

Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commit

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

one.  Noticed and fixed.

As the processor may not consider GUEST_INTR_STATE_STI as a reason for
blocking NMI, it could return immediately with EXIT_REASON_NMI_WINDOW
when we asked for it. But as we consider this state as NMI-blocking, we
can run into an endless loop.

Resolve this by allowing NMI injection if just GUEST_INTR_STATE_STI is
active (originally suggested by Gleb). Intel confirmed that this is
safe, the processor will never complain about NMI injection in this

impossible situation, given that at least one thread is known to be

hard to reason about and it's not what was intended (otherwise the goto

Go for checking the active count - the alternative is not worth the

vhost: fix barrier pairing

According to memory-barriers.txt, an smp memory barrier in guest
should always be paired with an smp memory barrier in host,
and I quote "a lack of appropriate pairing is almost certainly an
error". In case of vhost, failure to flush out used index
update before looking at the interrupt disable flag
could result in missed interrupts, resulting in
networking hang under stress.

This might happen when flags read bypasses used index write.
So we see interrupts disabled and do not interrupt, at the
same time guest writes flags value to enable interrupt,
reads an old used index value, thinks that
used ring is empty and waits for interrupt.

Note: the barrier we pair with here is in
drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c, function
vring_enable_cb.
