Use acpi_os_map_memory() instead of ioremap() in einj driver

2012-01-24T00:39:10+00:00

ioremap() has become more picky and is now spitting out console messages like:

 ioremap error for 0xbddbd000-0xbddbe000, requested 0x10, got 0x0

when loading the einj driver.  What we are trying to so here is map
a couple of data structures that the EINJ table points to. Perhaps
acpi_os_map_memory() is a better tool for this?
Most importantly it works, but as a side benefit it maps the structures
into kernel virtual space so we can access them with normal C memory
dereferences, so instead of using:
	writel(param1, &v5param->apicid);
we can use the more natural:
	v5param->apicid = param1;

ACPI, APEI: Add 64-bit read/write support for APEI on i386

2012-01-21T06:08:17+00:00

Base ACPI (CA) currently does not support atomic 64-bit reads and writes
(acpi_read() and acpi_write() split 64-bit loads/stores into two
32-bit transfers) yet APEI expects 64-bit transfer capability, even
when running on 32-bit systems.

This patch implements 64-bit read and write routines for APEI usage.

This patch re-factors similar functionality introduced in commit
04c25997c97, bringing it into the ACPI subsystem in preparation for
removing ./drivers/acpi/atomicio.[ch].  In the implementation I have
replicated acpi_os_read_memory() and acpi_os_write_memory(), creating
64-bit versions for APEI to utilize, as opposed to something more
elegant.  My thinking is that we should attempt to see if we can get
ACPI's CA/OSL changed so that the existing acpi_read() and acpi_write()
interfaces are natively 64-bit capable and then subsequently remove the
replication.

This includes initial support for the recently published ACPI 5.0 spec.
In particular, support for the "hardware-reduced" bit that eliminates
the dependency on legacy hardware.

APEI has patches resulting from testing on real hardware.

acpi/apei/einj: Add extensions to EINJ from rev 5.0 of acpi spec

2012-01-18T06:14:17+00:00

ACPI 5.0 provides extensions to the EINJ mechanism to specify the
target for the error injection - by APICID for cpu related errors,
by address for memory related errors, and by segment/bus/device/function
for PCIe related errors. Also extensions for vendor specific error
injections.

ACPI APEI: Convert atomicio routines

2012-01-17T09:36:40+00:00

APEI needs memory access in interrupt context.  The obvious choice is
acpi_read(), but originally it couldn't be used in interrupt context
because it makes temporary mappings with ioremap().  Therefore, we added
drivers/acpi/atomicio.c, which provides:
    acpi_pre_map_gar()     -- ioremap in process context
	acpi_atomic_read()     -- memory access in interrupt context
	acpi_post_unmap_gar()  -- iounmap

Later we added acpi_os_map_generic_address() (2971852) and enhanced
acpi_read() so it works in interrupt context as long as the address has
been previously mapped (620242a).  Now this sequence:
    acpi_os_map_generic_address()    -- ioremap in process context
    acpi_read()/apei_read()          -- now OK in interrupt context
    acpi_os_unmap_generic_address()
is equivalent to what atomicio.c provides.

This patch introduces apei_read() and apei_write(), which currently are
functional equivalents of acpi_read() and acpi_write().  This is mainly
proactive, to prevent APEI breakages if acpi_read() and acpi_write()
are ever augmented to support the 'bit_offset' field of GAS, as APEI's
__apei_exec_write_register() precludes splitting up functionality
related to 'bit_offset' and APEI's 'mask' (see its
APEI_EXEC_PRESERVE_REGISTER block).

With apei_read() and apei_write() in place, usages of atomicio routines
are converted to apei_read()/apei_write() and existing calls within
osl.c and the CA, based on the re-factoring that was done in an earlier
patch series - http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=128769263327206&w=2:
    acpi_pre_map_gar()     -->  acpi_os_map_generic_address()
    acpi_post_unmap_gar()  -->  acpi_os_unmap_generic_address()
    acpi_atomic_read()     -->  apei_read()
    acpi_atomic_write()    -->  apei_write()

Note that acpi_read() and acpi_write() currently use 'bit_width'
for accessing GARs which seems incorrect.  'bit_width' is the size of
the register, while 'access_width' is the size of the access the
processor must generate on the bus.  The 'access_width' may be larger,
for example, if the hardware only supports 32-bit or 64-bit reads.  I
wanted to minimize any possible impacts with this patch series so I
did *not* change this behavior.

ACPI, APEI, Resolve false conflict between ACPI NVS and APEI

2012-01-17T08:54:46+00:00

Some firmware will access memory in ACPI NVS region via APEI.  That
is, instructions in APEI ERST/EINJ table will read/write ACPI NVS
region.  The original resource conflict checking in APEI code will
check memory/ioport accessed by APEI via general resource management
mech.  But ACPI NVS region is marked as busy already, so that the
false resource conflict will prevent APEI ERST/EINJ to work.

To fix this, this patch excludes ACPI NVS regions when APEI components
request resources.  So that they will not conflict with ACPI NVS
regions.

ACPI, APEI, EINJ, Refine the fix of resource conflict

2012-01-17T08:54:41+00:00

Current fix for resource conflict is to remove the address region  from trigger resource, which is highly relies on valid user
input. This patch is trying to avoid such potential issues by fetching the
exact address region from trigger action table entry.
