When kdump'ing on a system that has had a socket (package) physically
hotadded, the following panic is occasionally seen:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
Rebooting in 10 seconds..
ACPI MEMORY or I/O RESET_REG.
The panic shows what the problem is:
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c:
1137 static void uncore_change_type_ctx(struct intel_uncore_type *type, int old_ cpu,
1138 int new_cpu)
1139 {
1140 struct intel_uncore_pmu *pmu = type->pmus;
1141 struct intel_uncore_box *box;
1142 int i, pkg;
1143
1144 pkg = topology_logical_package_id(old_cpu < 0 ? new_cpu : old_cpu);
1145 for (i = 0; i < type->num_boxes; i++, pmu++) {
1146 box = pmu->boxes[pkg];
pmu->boxes[pkg] is garbage because pkg was returned as 0xffff.
topology_logical_package_id() is defined as
|#define topology_logical_package_id(cpu) (cpu_data(cpu).logical_proc_id
which means that logical_proc_id was not defined. logical_proc_id is set in
arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c:topology_update_package_map(), which is called in
arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c:smp_init_package_map.
smp_init_package_map() was introduced in 1f12e32f4cd5 ("x86/topology:
Create logical package id"), and does
arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c:
358 for_each_present_cpu(cpu) {
359 unsigned int apicid = apic->cpu_present_to_apicid(cpu);
360
361 if (apicid == BAD_APICID || !apic->apic_id_valid(apicid))
362 continue;
363 if (!topology_update_package_map(apicid, cpu))
364 continue;
which means that apic->cpu_present_to_apicid(cpu) is returning BAD_APICID
(experimentally verified that it is not the acpi_id_valid() that is the
problem) so that topology_update_package_map() is not called for the cpu,
and the cpu's pkg value will remain the default value of 0xffff.
Following through function pointers, cpu_present_to_apicid() resolves as
default_cpu_present_to_apicid() which is __default_cpu_present_to_apicid()
for x86_64.
arch/x86/include/asm/apic.h:
605 static inline int __default_cpu_present_to_apicid(int mps_cpu)
606 {
607 if (mps_cpu < nr_cpu_ids && cpu_present(mps_cpu))
608 return (int)per_cpu(x86_bios_cpu_apicid, mps_cpu);
609 else
610 return BAD_APICID;
611 }
The per_cpu field x86_bios_cpu_apicid is set in generic_processor_info().
After verifying that the mps_cpu was 0 and the cpu was in the present
map, the only way that x86_bios_cpu_apicid is BAD_APICID for a valid
cpu is if the cpu initialization function generic_processor_info() was not
called on the cpu.
As part of acpi_boot_init(), the acpi_register_lapic() calls
generic_processor_info() and is called for all APIC entries in the MADT
table. The ACPI 6.0 Specification states that the ACPI X2APIC tables does
not have to update on a cpu hotplug event:
"5.2.12.12 Processor Local x2APIC Structure
OSPM does not expect the information provided in this table to be updated if
the processor information changes during the lifespan of an OS boot."
and that explains why generic_processor_info() was not called on a
hotplugged cpu during the kdump kernel boot.
Hot adding a cpu to a system and testing kdump [1] with
taskset -c {hotadded thread id} echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
makes the panic occur 100% of the time. Targetting a cpu that is present in
the MADT results in a valid kdump 100% of time. These two combined explain the
occasional nature of the panic.
The boot log also contains evidence that generic_processor_info() wasn't
called on the boot cpu, and that was the problem:
smpboot: weird, boot CPU (#507) not listed by the BIOS
and
APIC: NR_CPUS/possible_cpus limit of 1 almost reached. Keeping one slot for boot cpu. Processor 1/0x2 ignored.
entries are listed for each cpu but there is no indication that the boot
cpu was enumerated in ACPI. Adding a debug printk shows num_processors is
0 after the ACPI enumeration is complete.
After the ACPI enumeration is complete, prefill_possible_map() [2] checks
if num_processors is 0 and sets it to 1 to account for a boot cpu that
wasn't enumerated. However, prefill_possible_map() does not call
generic_processor_info() on the boot cpu which leaves the boot cpu with
partially uninitialized data.
This patch adds the missing generic_processor_info() to
prefill_possible_map() to ensure the initialization of the boot cpu is
correct. This results in smp_init_package_map() having correct data and
properly setting the package map for the hotplugged boot cpu, which in
turn resolves the kdump kernel panic on physically hotplugged cpus.
[1] This can be simulated in a KVM environment by hot adding a CPU and
using taskset to force the dump on the newly added CPU.
[2] prefill_possible_map() is called before smp_store_boot_cpu_info().
The comment beside the call to smp_store_boot_cpu_info() states that the
completed call results in "Final full version of the data".
