[ Upstream commit 3f8dec116210ca649163574ed5f8df1e3b837d07 ]
Platforms with large BERT table data can trigger soft lockup errors
while attempting to print the entire BERT table data to the console at
boot:
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#160 stuck for 23s! [swapper/0:1]
Observed on Ampere Altra systems with a single BERT record of ~250KB.
The original bert driver appears to have assumed relatively small table
data. Since it is impractical to reassemble large table data from
interwoven console messages, and the table data is available in
/sys/firmware/acpi/tables/data/BERT
limit the size for tables printed to the console to 1024 (for no reason
other than it seemed like a good place to kick off the discussion, would
appreciate feedback from existing users in terms of what size would
maintain their current usage model).
Alternatively, we could make printing a CONFIG option, use the
bert_disable boot arg (or something similar), or use a debug log level.
However, all those solutions require extra steps or change the existing
behavior for small table data. Limiting the size preserves existing
behavior on existing platforms with small table data, and eliminates the
soft lockups for platforms with large table data, while still making it
available.

[ Upstream commit f3303ff649dbf7dcdc6a6e1a922235b12b3028f4 ]
__setup() handlers should return 1 to indicate that the boot option
has been handled. Returning 0 causes a boot option to be listed in
the Unknown kernel command line parameters and also added to init's
arg list (if no '=' sign) or environment list (if of the form 'a=b').
Unknown kernel command line parameters "erst_disable
bert_disable hest_disable BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6", will be
passed to user space.
Run /sbin/init as init process
with arguments:
/sbin/init
erst_disable
bert_disable
hest_disable
with environment:
HOME=/
TERM=linux
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6

Check that the length recorded in the generic error status block is
within the region before checking the contents of the region itself.
Otherwise it may result in an out-of-bounds access if the system
firmware has generated a status block with an invalid length (larger
than the mapped region). Also move the block_status check so that it
only happens after the block has been verified to be within the mapped
region.

It was reported that on some machines, there is overlap between ACPI
NVS area and BERT address range. This appears reasonable because BERT
contents need to be non-volatile across reboot. But this will cause
resources conflict in current Linux kernel implementation because the
ACPI NVS area is marked as busy. The resource conflict is fixed via
excluding the ACPI NVS area when requesting IO resources for BERT.
When accessing the BERT contents, the whole BERT address range will be
ioremapped and accessed.

ACPI/APEI is designed to verifiy/report H/W errors, like Corrected
Error(CE) and Uncorrected Error(UC). It contains four tables: HEST,
ERST, EINJ and BERT. The first three tables have been merged for
a long time, but because of lacking BIOS support for BERT, the
support for BERT is pending until now. Recently on ARM 64 platform
it is has been supported. So here we come.
Under normal circumstances, when a hardware error occurs, kernel will
be notified via NMI, MCE or some other method, then kernel will
process the error condition, report it, and recover it if possible.
But sometime, the situation is so bad, so that firmware may choose to
reset directly without notifying Linux kernel.
Linux kernel can use the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) to get the
un-notified hardware errors that occurred in a previous boot. In this
patch, the error information is reported via printk.
For more information about BERT, please refer to ACPI Specification
version 6.0, section 18.3.1:
http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6.0.pdf
The following log is a BERT record after system reboot because of hitting
a fatal memory error:
BERT: Error records from previous boot:
[Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action
[Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected
[Hardware Error]: Error 0, type: recoverable
[Hardware Error]: section_type: memory error
[Hardware Error]: error_status: 0x0000000000000400
[Hardware Error]: physical_address: 0xffffffffffffffff
[Hardware Error]: card: 1 module: 2 bank: 3 row: 1 column: 2 bit_position: 5
[Hardware Error]: error_type: 2, single-bit ECC
