Fixed wrong expression which enabled watchdogs even if nmi_watchdog kernel
parameter wasn't set. This regression got slightly introduced with commit
b7471c6da94d30d3deadc55986cc38d1ff57f9ca.
Introduced NMI_DISABLED (-1) which allows to switch the value of NMI_DEFAULT
without breaking the APIC NMI watchdog code (again).
Fixes:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7839
And likely some more nmi_watchdog=0 related issues.

When a machine check or NMI occurs while multiple byte code is patched
the CPU could theoretically see an inconsistent instruction and crash.
Prevent this by temporarily disabling MCEs and returning early in the
NMI handler.

there's a new NMI watchdog related problem: KVM crashes on certain
bzImages because ... we enable the NMI watchdog by default (even if the
user does not ask for it) , and no other OS on this planet does that so
KVM doesnt have emulation for that yet. So KVM injects a #GP, which
crashes the Linux guest:
general protection fault: 0000 [#1]
PREEMPT SMP
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0
EIP: 0060:[<c011a8ae>] Not tainted VLI
EFLAGS: 00000246 (2.6.20-rc5-rt0 #3)
EIP is at setup_apic_nmi_watchdog+0x26d/0x3d3
and no, i did /not/ request an nmi_watchdog on the boot command line!
Solution: turn off that darn thing! It's a debug tool, not a 'make life
harder' tool!!
with this patch the KVM guest boots up just fine.
And with this my laptop (Lenovo T60) also stopped its sporadic hard
hanging (sometimes in acpi_init(), sometimes later during bootup,
sometimes much later during actual use) as well. It hung with both
nmi_watchdog=1 and nmi_watchdog=2, so it's generally the fact of NMI
injection that is causing problems, not the NMI watchdog variant, nor
any particular bootup code.

When a spinlock lockup occurs, arrange for the NMI code to emit an all-cpu
backtrace, so we get to see which CPU is holding the lock, and where.

Use prototypes in headers
Don't define panic_on_unrecovered_nmi for all architectures
Cc: dzickus@redhat.com
Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
|
|
When a unknown NMI happened the panic would claim a NMI watchdog timeout.
Also it would check the variable set by nmi_watchdog=panic and panic then.
Fix up the panic message to be generic
Unconditionally panic on unknown NMI when panic on unknown nmi is enabled.

Making NMI suspend/resume work with SMP. We use CPU hotplug to offline
APs in SMP suspend/resume. Only BSP executes sysdev's .suspend/.resume
method. APs should follow CPU hotplug code path.
And:
+From: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com>
Makes the start/stop paths of nmi watchdog more robust to handle the
suspend/resume cases more gracefully.

reserve/release_lapic_nmi functions
Removes the un/set_nmi_callback and reserve/release_lapic_nmi functions as
they are no longer needed. The various subsystems are modified to register
with the die_notifier instead.
Also includes compile fixes by Andrew Morton.

This patch cleans up the NMI interrupt path. Instead of being gated by if
the 'nmi callback' is set, the interrupt handler now calls everyone who is
registered on the die_chain and additionally checks the nmi watchdog,
reseting it if enabled. This allows more subsystems to hook into the NMI if
they need to (without being block by set_nmi_callback).

This patch includes the changes to make the nmi watchdog on x86_64 SMP
aware. A bunch of code was moved around to make it simpler to read. In
addition, it is now possible to determine if a particular NMI was the result
of the watchdog or not. This feature allows the kernel to filter out
unknown NMIs easier.

Adds basic infrastructure to allow subsystems to reserve performance
counters on the x86 chips. Only UP kernels are supported in this patch to
make reviewing easier. The SMP portion makes a lot more changes.
Think of this as a locking mechanism where each bit represents a different
counter. In addition, each subsystem should also reserve an appropriate
event selection register that will correspond to the performance counter it
will be using (this is mainly neccessary for the Pentium 4 chips as they
break the 1:1 relationship to performance counters).
This will help prevent subsystems like oprofile from interfering with the
nmi watchdog.

Collected NMI watchdog fixes.
- Fix call of check_nmi_watchdog
- Remove earlier move of check_nmi_watchdog to later. It does not fix the
race it was supposed to fix fully.
- Remove unused P6 definitions
- Add support for performance counter based watchdog on P4 systems.
This allows to run it only once per second, which saves some CPU time.
Previously it would run at 1000Hz, which was too much.
Code ported from i386
Make this the default on Intel systems.
- Use check_nmi_watchdog with local APIC based nmi
- Fix race in touch_nmi_watchdog
- Fix bug that caused incorrect performance counters to be programmed in a
few cases on K8.
- Remove useless check for local APIC
- Use local_t and per_cpu variables for per CPU data.
- Keep other CPUs busy during check_nmi_watchdog to make sure they really
tick when in lapic mode.
- Only check CPUs that are actually online.
- Various other fixes.
- Fix fallback path when MSRs are unimplemented

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
