commit fbdb328c6bae0a7c78d75734a738b66b86dffc96 upstream.

commit b3b7c4795c ("x86/MCE: Serialize sysfs changes") introduced a min
interval limitation when setting the check interval for polled MCEs.
However, the logic is that 0 disables polling for corrected MCEs, see
Documentation/x86/x86_64/machinecheck. The limitation prevents disabling.

Remove this limitation and allow the value 0 to disable polling again.

<title>x86/mce: Do not overwrite MCi_STATUS in mce_no_way_out()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:587bb245cddf210445fc132915b72e83a8e3308e</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 1f74c8a64798e2c488f86efc97e308b85fb7d7aa upstream.

mce_no_way_out() does a quick check during #MC to see whether some of
the MCEs logged would require the kernel to panic immediately. And it
passes a struct mce where MCi_STATUS gets written.

However, after having saved a valid status value, the next iteration
of the loop which goes over the MCA banks on the CPU, overwrites the
valid status value because we're using struct mce as storage instead of
a temporary variable.

Which leads to MCE records with an empty status value:

  mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 6 Bank 0: 0000000000000000
  mce: [Hardware Error]: RIP 10:&lt;ffffffffbd42fbd7&gt; {trigger_mce+0x7/0x10}

In order to prevent the loss of the status register value, return
immediately when severity is a panic one so that we can panic
immediately with the first fatal MCE logged. This is also the intention
of this function and not to noodle over the banks while a fatal MCE is
already logged.

Tony: read the rest of the MCA bank to populate the struct mce fully.

<title>x86/mce: Fix incorrect "Machine check from unknown source" message</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d819beffd3d1cfd29fbed6727a999be50775883f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 40c36e2741d7fe1e66d6ec55477ba5fd19c9c5d2 upstream.

Some injection testing resulted in the following console log:

  mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 22: Machine Check Exception: f Bank 1: bd80000000100134
  mce: [Hardware Error]: RIP 10:&lt;ffffffffc05292dd&gt; {pmem_do_bvec+0x11d/0x330 [nd_pmem]}
  mce: [Hardware Error]: TSC c51a63035d52 ADDR 3234bc4000 MISC 88
  mce: [Hardware Error]: PROCESSOR 0:50654 TIME 1526502199 SOCKET 0 APIC 38 microcode 2000043
  mce: [Hardware Error]: Run the above through 'mcelog --ascii'
  Kernel panic - not syncing: Machine check from unknown source

This confused everybody because the first line quite clearly shows
that we found a logged error in "Bank 1", while the last line says
"unknown source".

The problem is that the Linux code doesn't do the right thing
for a local machine check that results in a fatal error.

It turns out that we know very early in the handler whether the
machine check is fatal. The call to mce_no_way_out() has checked
all the banks for the CPU that took the local machine check. If
it says we must crash, we can do so right away with the right
messages.

We do scan all the banks again. This means that we might initially
not see a problem, but during the second scan find something fatal.
If this happens we print a slightly different message (so I can
see if it actually every happens).

<title>x86/mce: Improve error message when kernel cannot recover</title>

commit c7d606f560e4c698884697fef503e4abacdd8c25 upstream.

Since we added support to add recovery from some errors inside the kernel in:

commit b2f9d678e28c ("x86/mce: Check for faults tagged in EXTABLE_CLASS_FAULT exception table entries")

we have done a less than stellar job at reporting the cause of recoverable
machine checks that occur in other parts of the kernel. The user just gets
the unhelpful message:

	mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Action required: unknown MCACOD

doubly unhelpful when they check the manual for the reported IA32_MSR_STATUS.MCACOD
and see that it is listed as one of the standard recoverable values.

Add an extra rule to the MCE severity table to catch this case and report it
as:

	mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Data load in unrecoverable area of kernel

commit 985c78d3ff8e9c74450fa2bb08eb55e680d999ca upstream.

Each of the strings that we want to put into the buf[MAX_FLAG_OPT_SIZE]
in flags_read() is two characters long. But the sprintf() adds
a trailing newline and will add a terminating NUL byte. So
MAX_FLAG_OPT_SIZE needs to be 4.

sprintf() calls vsnprintf() and *that* does return:

" * The return value is the number of characters which would
 * be generated for the given input, excluding the trailing
 * '\0', as per ISO C99."

Note the "excluding".

This reverts commit 4b1e84276a6172980c5bf39aa091ba13e90d6dad.

Software uses the valid bits to decide if the values can be used for
further processing or other actions. So setting the valid bits will have
software act on values that it shouldn't be acting on.

The recommendation to save all the register values does not mean that
the values are always valid.
