[RFC PATCH 2/2] ACPI: APEI: separate synchronous error handling into task work

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On Arm64 platform, errors could be signaled by synchronous interrupt, e.g.
when an error is detected by a background scrubber, or signaled by
synchronous exception, e.g. when an uncorrected error is consumed. Both
synchronous and asynchronous error are queued and handled by a dedicated
kthread in workqueue.

commit 7f17b4a121d0 ("ACPI: APEI: Kick the memory_failure() queue for
synchronous errors") keep track of whether memory_failure() work was
queued, and make task_work pending to flush out the workqueue so that the
work for synchronous error is processed before returning to user-space.
The trick ensures that the corrupted page is unmapped and poisoned. And
after returning to user-space, the task starts at current instruction which
triggering a page fault and kernel will send sigbus due to
VM_FAULT_HWPOISON.

Although the task could be killed by page fault, the memory failure is
handled in a kthread context so that the hwpoison-aware mechanisms, e.g.
PF_MCE_EARLY, early kill, does not work as expected.

To this end, separate synchronous and asynchronous error handling into
different paths like X86 does:

- task work for synchronous error.
- and workqueue for asynchronous error.
