RAS/CEC: Fix pfn insertion

2019-07-26T07:10:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6d8e294bf5f0e85c34e8b14b064e2965f53f38b0 ] When inserting random PFNs for debugging the CEC through (debugfs)/ras/cec/pfn, depending on the return value of pfn_set(), multiple values get inserted per a single write. That is because simple_attr_write() interprets a retval of 0 as success and claims the whole input. However, pfn_set() returns the cec_add_elem() value, which, if > 0 and smaller than the whole input length, makes glibc continue issuing the write syscall until there's input left: pfn_set simple_attr_write debugfs_attr_write full_proxy_write vfs_write ksys_write do_syscall_64 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe leading to those repeated calls. Return 0 to fix that. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov Cc: Tony Luck Cc: linux-edac Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

RAS/CEC: Convert the timer callback to a workqueue

2019-06-07T21:21:39+00:00

cec_timer_fn() is a timer callback which reads ce_arr.array[] and updates its decay values. However, it runs in interrupt context and the mutex protection the CEC uses for that array, is inadequate. Convert the used timer to a workqueue to keep the tasks the CEC performs preemptible and thus low-prio.

RAS/CEC: Fix binary search function

2019-06-07T21:18:26+00:00

Switch to using Donald Knuth's binary search algorithm (The Art of Computer Programming, vol. 3, section 6.2.1). This should've been done from the very beginning but the author must've been smoking something very potent at the time. The problem with the current one was that it would return the wrong element index in certain situations: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CAM_iQpVd02zkVJ846cj-Fg1yUNuz6tY5q1Vpj4LrXmE06dPYYg@mail.gmail.com and the noodling code after the loop was fishy at best. So switch to using Knuth's binary search. The final result is much cleaner and straightforward.

RAS: Use consistent types for UUIDs

treewide: surround Kconfig file paths with double quotes

2018-12-21T15:25:54+00:00

The Kconfig lexer supports special characters such as '.' and '/' in the parameter context. In my understanding, the reason is just to support bare file paths in the source statement. I do not see a good reason to complicate Kconfig for the room of ambiguity. The majority of code already surrounds file paths with double quotes, and it makes sense since file paths are constant string literals. Make it treewide consistent now.

mm/memory_failure: Remove unused trapno from memory_failure

2018-01-23T18:17:42+00:00

Today 4 architectures set ARCH_SUPPORTS_MEMORY_FAILURE (arm64, parisc, powerpc, and x86), while 4 other architectures set __ARCH_SI_TRAPNO (alpha, metag, sparc, and tile). These two sets of architectures do not interesect so remove the trapno paramater to remove confusion. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Yet another big pile of changes: - More year 2038 work from Arnd slowly reaching the point where we need to think about the syscalls themself. - A new timer function which allows to conditionally (re)arm a timer only when it's either not running or the new expiry time is sooner than the armed expiry time. This allows to use a single timer for multiple timeout requirements w/o caring about the first expiry time at the call site. - A new NMI safe accessor to clock real time for the printk timestamp work. Can be used by tracing, perf as well if required. - A large number of timer setup conversions from Kees which got collected here because either maintainers requested so or they simply got ignored. As Kees pointed out already there are a few trivial merge conflicts and some redundant commits which was unavoidable due to the size of this conversion effort. - Avoid a redundant iteration in the timer wheel softirq processing. - Provide a mechanism to treat RTC implementations depending on their hardware properties, i.e. don't inflict the write at the 0.5 seconds boundary which originates from the PC CMOS RTC to all RTCs. No functional change as drivers need to be updated separately. - The usual small updates to core code clocksource drivers.
