[PATCH v4 06/12] arm64: KVM/mm: Move SEA handling behind a single 'claim' interface

James Morse james.morse at arm.com
Wed May 16 09:28:23 PDT 2018


To split up APEIs in_nmi() path, we need the nmi-like callers to always
be in_nmi(). Add a helper to do the work and claim the notification.

When KVM or the arch code takes an exception that might be a RAS
notification, it asks the APEI firmware-first code whether it wants
to claim the exception. We can then go on to see if (a future)
kernel-first mechanism wants to claim the notification, before
falling through to the existing default behaviour.

The NOTIFY_SEA code was merged before we had multiple, possibly
interacting, NMI-like notifications and the need to consider kernel
first in the future. Make the 'claiming' behaviour explicit.

As we're restructuring the APEI code to allow multiple NMI-like
notifications, any notification that might interrupt interrupts-masked
code must always be wrapped in nmi_enter()/nmi_exit(). This allows APEI
to use in_nmi() to choose between the raw/regular spinlock routines.

We mask SError over this window to prevent an asynchronous RAS error
arriving and tripping 'nmi_enter()'s BUG_ON(in_nmi()).

Why does apei_claim_sea() take a pt_regs? This gets used later to take
APEI by the hand through NMI->IRQ context, depending on what we
interrupted.

Changes since v3:
 * Removed spurious whitespace change
 * Updated comment in acpi.c to cover SError masking

Changes since v2:
 * Added dummy definition for !ACPI and culled IS_ENABLED() checks.
