* pstore: fix potential logic issue in pstore read interfaceChen Gong2011-05-161-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | 1) in the calling of erst_read, the parameter of buffer size maybe overflows and cause crash 2) the return value of erst_read should be checked more strictly Signed-off-by: Chen Gong <gong.chen@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
* pstore: fix pstore filesystem mount/remount issueChen Gong2011-05-161-13/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | Currently after mount/remount operation on pstore filesystem, the content on pstore will be lost. It is because current ERST implementation doesn't support multi-user usage, which moves internal pointer to the end after accessing it. Adding multi-user support for pstore usage.

* pstore: fix one type of return value in pstoreChen Gong2011-05-161-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | the return type of function _read_ in pstore is size_t, but in the callback function of _read_, the logic doesn't consider it too much, which means if negative value (assuming error here) is returned, it will be converted to positive because of type casting. ssize_t is enough for this function.

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>
* acpi: fix bogus preemption logicThomas Gleixner2010-08-121-0/+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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | 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>
* ACPI, APEI, Error Record Serialization Table (ERST) supportHuang Ying2010-05-201-0/+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.
