2013-12-21ACPI, APEI: Cleanup alignment-aware accessesChen, Gong1-1/+1
We do use memcpy to avoid access alignment issues between firmware and OS. Now we can use a better and standard way to avoid this issue. While at it, simplify some variable names to avoid the 80 cols limit and use structure assignment instead of unnecessary memcpy. No functional changes. Because ERST record id cache is implemented in memory to increase the access speed via caching ERST content we can refrain from using memcpy there too and use regular assignment instead.

2013-06-29acpi: Eliminate console msg if pstore.backend excludes ERSTLenny Szubowicz1-6/+14
This is patch 2/3 of a patch set that avoids what misleadingly appears to be a error during boot: ERST: Could not register with persistent store This message is displayed if the system has a valid ACPI ERST table and the pstore.backend kernel parameter has been used to disable use of ERST by pstore. But this same message is used for errors that preclude registration. In erst_init don't complain if the setting of kernel parameter pstore.backend precludes use of ACPI ERST for pstore. Routine pstore_register will inform about the facility that does register. Also, don't leave a dangling pointer to deallocated mem for the pstore buffer when registration fails.

2012-11-27efi_pstore: Add a sequence counter to a variable nameSeiji Aguchi1-6/+6
[Issue] Currently, a variable name, which identifies each entry, consists of type, id and ctime. But if multiple events happens in a short time, a second/third event may fail to log because efi_pstore can't distinguish each event with current variable name. [Solution] A reasonable way to identify all events precisely is introducing a sequence counter to the variable name. The sequence counter has already supported in a pstore layer with "oopscount". So, this patch adds it to a variable name. Also, it is passed to read/erase callbacks of platform drivers in accordance with the modification of the variable name. <before applying this patch> a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-12345678 type:0 id:1 ctime:12345678 If multiple events happen in a short time, efi_pstore can't distinguish them because variable names are same among them. <after applying this patch> it can be distinguishable by adding a sequence counter as follows. a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-1-12345678 a variable name of Second event: dump-type0-1-2-12345678 type:0 id:1 sequence counter: 1(first event), 2(second event) ctime:12345678 In case of a write callback executed in pstore_console_write(), "0" is added to an argument of the write callback because it just logs all kernel messages and doesn't need to care about multiple events.

2012-11-27efi_pstore: Add ctime to argument of erase callbackSeiji Aguchi1-2/+2
[Issue] Currently, a variable name, which is used to identify each log entry, consists of type, id and ctime. But an erase callback does not use ctime. If efi_pstore supported just one log, type and id were enough. However, in case of supporting multiple logs, it doesn't work because it can't distinguish each entry without ctime at erasing time. <Example> As you can see below, efi_pstore can't differentiate first event from second one without ctime. a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-23456789 type:0 id:1 ctime:12345678, 23456789 [Solution] This patch adds ctime to an argument of an erase callback. It works across reboots because ctime of pstore means the date that the record was originally stored. To do this, efi_pstore saves the ctime to variable name at writing time and passes it to pstore at reading time.

2011-11-18pstore: pass reason to backend write callbackKees Cook1-2/+4
This allows a backend to filter on the dmesg reason as well as the pstore reason. When ramoops is switched to pstore, this is needed since it has no interest in storing non-crash dmesg details.

2011-11-18pstore: pass allocated memory region back to callerKees Cook1-9/+22
The buf_lock cannot be held while populating the inodes, so make the backend pass forward an allocated and filled buffer instead. This solves the following backtrace. The effect is that "buf" is only ever used to notify the backends that something was written to it, and shouldn't be used in the read path. To replace the buf_lock during the read path, isolate the open/read/close loop with a separate mutex to maintain serialized access to the backend. Note that is is up to the pstore backend to cope if the (*write)() path is called in the middle of the read path.

2011-08-16pstore: change mutex locking to spin_locksDon Zickus1-1/+1
pstore was using mutex locking to protect read/write access to the backend plug-ins. This causes problems when pstore is executed in an NMI context through panic() -> kmsg_dump(). This patch changes the mutex to a spin_lock_irqsave then also checks to see if we are in an NMI context. If we are in an NMI and can't get the lock, just print a message stating that and blow by the locking. All this is probably a hack around the bigger locking problem but it solves my current situation of trying to sleep in an NMI context. Tested by loading the lkdtm module and executing a HARDLOCKUP which will cause the machine to panic inside the nmi handler.

2011-03-22ACPI, APEI, Add ERST record ID cacheHuang Ying1-44/+191
APEI ERST firmware interface and implementation has no multiple users in mind. For example, if there is four records in storage with ID: 1, 2, 3 and 4, if two ERST readers enumerate the records via GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID as follow, reader 1 reader 2 1 2 3 4 -1 -1 where -1 signals there is no more record ID. Reader 1 has no chance to check record 2 and 4, while reader 2 has no chance to check record 1 and 3. And any other GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID will return -1, that is, other readers will has no chance to check any record even they are not cleared by anyone. This makes raw GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID not suitable for used by multiple users. To solve the issue, an in-memory ERST record ID cache is designed and implemented. When enumerating record ID, the ID returned by GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID is added into cache in addition to be returned to caller. So other readers can check the cache to get all record ID available.

On Huang Ying's machine: erst_tab->header_length == sizeof(struct acpi_table_einj) but Yinghai reported that on his machine, erst_tab->header_length == sizeof(struct acpi_table_einj) - sizeof(struct acpi_table_header) To make erst table size checking code works on all systems, both testing are treated as PASS. Same situation applies to einj_tab->header_length, so corresponding table size checking is changed in similar way too. v2: - Treat both table size as valid Originally-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2010-08-12acpi: fix bogus preemption logicThomas Gleixner1-0/+1
The ACPI_PREEMPTION_POINT() logic was introduced in commit 8bd108d (ACPICA: add preemption point after each opcode parse). The follow up commits abe1dfab6, 138d15692, c084ca70 tried to fix the preemption logic back and forth, but nobody noticed that the usage of in_atomic_preempt_off() in that context is wrong. The check which guards the call of cond_resched() is: if (!in_atomic_preempt_off() && !irqs_disabled()) in_atomic_preempt_off() is not intended for general use as the comment above the macro definition clearly says: * Check whether we were atomic before we did preempt_disable(): * (used by the scheduler, *after* releasing the kernel lock) On a CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernel the usage of in_atomic_preempt_off() works by accident, but with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y it's just broken. The whole purpose of the ACPI_PREEMPTION_POINT() is to reduce the latency on a CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernel, so make ACPI_PREEMPTION_POINT() depend on CONFIG_PREEMPT=n and remove the in_atomic_preempt_off() check.

2010-07-02correct console log level when ERST ACPI table is not foundDaniel J Blueman1-1/+1
When booting 2.6.35-rc3 on a x86 system without an ERST ACPI table with the 'quiet' option, we still observe an "ERST: Table is not found!" warning. Quiesce it to the same info log level as the other 'table not found' warnings. Signed-off-by: Daniel J Blueman <daniel.blueman@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2010-05-20ACPI, APEI, Error Record Serialization Table (ERST) supportHuang Ying1-0/+855
ERST is a way provided by APEI to save and retrieve hardware error record to and from some simple persistent storage (such as flash). The Linux kernel support implementation is quite simple and workable in NMI context. So it can be used to save hardware error record into flash in hardware error exception or NMI handler, where other more complex persistent storage such as disk is not usable. After saving hardware error records via ERST in hardware error exception or NMI handler, the error records can be retrieved and logged into disk or network after a clean reboot. For more information about ERST, please refer to ACPI Specification version 4.0, section 17.4. This patch incorporate fixes from Jin Dongming.
