The memory uncorrected error could be signaled by asynchronous interrupt
(specifically, SPI in arm64 platform), e.g. when an error is detected by
a background scrubber, or signaled by synchronous exception
(specifically, data abort exception in arm64 platform), e.g. when a CPU
tries to access a poisoned cache line. Currently, both synchronous and
asynchronous error use memory_failure_queue() to schedule
memory_failure() to exectute in a kworker context.
As a result, when a user-space process is accessing a poisoned data, a
data abort is taken and the memory_failure() is executed in the kworker
context, memory_failure():
- will send wrong si_code by SIGBUS signal in early_kill mode, and
- can not kill the user-space in some cases resulting a synchronous
error infinite loop
Issue 1: send wrong si_code in early_kill mode
Since commit a70297d22132 ("ACPI: APEI: set memory failure flags as
MF_ACTION_REQUIRED on synchronous events")', the flag MF_ACTION_REQUIRED
could be used to determine whether a synchronous exception occurs on
ARM64 platform. When a synchronous exception is detected, the kernel is
expected to terminate the current process which has accessed poisoned
page. This is done by sending a SIGBUS signal with an error code
BUS_MCEERR_AR, indicating an action-required machine check error on
read.
However, when kill_proc() is called to terminate the processes who have
the poisoned page mapped, it sends the incorrect SIGBUS error code
BUS_MCEERR_AO because the context in which it operates is not the one
where the error was triggered.
To reproduce this problem:
#sysctl -w vm.memory_failure_early_kill=1
vm.memory_failure_early_kill = 1
# STEP2: inject an UCE error and consume it to trigger a synchronous error
#einj_mem_uc single
0: single vaddr = 0xffffb0d75400 paddr = 4092d55b400
injecting ...
triggering ...
signal 7 code 5 addr 0xffffb0d75000
page not present
Test passed
The si_code (code 5) from einj_mem_uc indicates that it is BUS_MCEERR_AO
error and it is not the fact.
After this patch:
# STEP1: enable early kill mode
#sysctl -w vm.memory_failure_early_kill=1
vm.memory_failure_early_kill = 1
# STEP2: inject an UCE error and consume it to trigger a synchronous error
#einj_mem_uc single
0: single vaddr = 0xffffb0d75400 paddr = 4092d55b400
injecting ...
triggering ...
signal 7 code 4 addr 0xffffb0d75000
page not present
Test passed
The si_code (code 4) from einj_mem_uc indicates that it is a BUS_MCEERR_AR
error as we expected.
Issue 2: a synchronous error infinite loop
If a user-space process, e.g. devmem, accesses a poisoned page for which
the HWPoison flag is set, kill_accessing_process() is called to send
SIGBUS to current processs with error info. Because the memory_failure()
is executed in the kworker context, it will just do nothing but return
EFAULT. So, devmem will access the posioned page and trigger an
exception again, resulting in a synchronous error infinite loop. Such
exception loop may cause platform firmware to exceed some threshold and
reboot when Linux could have recovered from this error.
To reproduce this problem:
# STEP 1: inject an UCE error, and kernel will set HWPosion flag for related page
#einj_mem_uc single
0: single vaddr = 0xffffb0d75400 paddr = 4092d55b400
injecting ...
triggering ...
signal 7 code 4 addr 0xffffb0d75000
page not present
Test passed
# STEP 2: access the same page and it will trigger a synchronous error infinite loop
devmem 0x4092d55b400
To fix above two issues, queue memory_failure() as a task_work so that
it runs in the context of the process that is actually consuming the
poisoned data.

This is basically the same as the message in kill_proc(). Was there any
consideration to have a shared function? Maybe this could be a future
patch.
Yep, I'd like to refactor in a future.

Minor nit: A common preference I've seen is to order variable

Will fix it if this patch set still misses the next merge window.
But overall, looks okay to me.
