x86/MCE/AMD: Allow Reserved types to be overwritten in smca_banks[]
Each logical CPU in Scalable MCA systems controls a unique set of MCA banks in the system. These banks are not shared between CPUs. The bank types and ordering will be the same across CPUs on currently available systems. However, some CPUs may see a bank as Reserved/Read-as-Zero (RAZ) while other CPUs do not. In this case, the bank seen as Reserved on one CPU is assumed to be the same type as the bank seen as a known type on another CPU. In general, this occurs when the hardware represented by the MCA bank is disabled, e.g. disabled memory controllers on certain models, etc. The MCA bank is disabled in the hardware, so there is no possibility of getting an MCA/MCE from it even if it is assumed to have a known type. For example: Full system: Bank | Type seen on CPU0 | Type seen on CPU1 ------------------------------------------------ 0 | LS | LS 1 | UMC | UMC 2 | CS | CS System with hardware disabled: Bank | Type seen on CPU0 | Type seen on CPU1 ------------------------------------------------ 0 | LS | LS 1 | UMC | RAZ 2 | CS | CS For this reason, there is a single, global struct smca_banks[] that is initialized at boot time. This array is initialized on each CPU as it comes online. However, the array will not be updated if an entry already exists. This works as expected when the first CPU (usually CPU0) has all possible MCA banks enabled. But if the first CPU has a subset, then it will save a "Reserved" type in smca_banks[]. Successive CPUs will then not be able to update smca_banks[] even if they encounter a known bank type. This may result in unexpected behavior. Depending on the system configuration, a user may observe issues enumerating the MCA thresholding sysfs interface. The issues may be as trivial as sysfs entries not being available, or as severe as system hangs. For example: Bank | Type seen on CPU0 | Type seen on CPU1 ------------------------------------------------ 0 | LS | LS 1 | RAZ | UMC 2 | CS | CS Extend the smca_banks[] entry check to return if the entry is a non-reserved type. Otherwise, continue so that CPUs that encounter a known bank type can update smca_banks[].
