[PATCH v11 0/6] Add RAS virtualization support for armv8 SEA and SEI

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

 



In the armv8 platform, the mainly processor hardware error notification
type are synchronous external abort(SEA) and SError Interrupt (SEI), For
the ARMv8 SEA/SEI, KVM or host kernel will deliver SIGBUS or use other
interface to notify user space. After user space gets the notification,
it will record the CPER to simulate GHES for guest OS and inject the a
exception(SEA/SEI) to KVM. 

This series patch has two parts, one part handles synchronous external
abort(SEA) exception and SError Interrupt (SEI) exception; another part
is generating APEI table when guest OS boot up, and dynamically record
CPER for the guest OS about the generic hardware errors. Currently the
userspace only handles the memory section hardware errors. Before Qemu
record the CPER, it needs to check the ACK value written by the guest
OS to avoid read-write race condition. In the simulated APEI/GHESV2/CPER
table, the max number of error soure is 11, which is classified by
notification type, now only enable the SEA/SEI notification type error
source to avoid OS boot warning.


About the whole solution we ever discuessed it in here before:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9633105/

Below is the APEI/GHESV2/CPER table layout, the max number of error soure is 11:

How to test guest OS do SEA/SEI recovery:

1. In the guest OS, trigger a SEA or SEI.
2. Then you will see below error log that printed by the memory failure
3. Memory failure will do the recovery for the error.

Such as the below shown kernel log:

how to test guest OS APTI/GHES:
1. In the guest OS, use this command to dump the APEI table: 
    "iasl -p ./HEST -d /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/HEST"
2. And find the address for the generic error status block
   according to the notification type
3. then find the CPER record through the generic error status block.

For example(notification type is SEA):

(1) root@genericarmv8:~# iasl -p ./HEST -d /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/HEST
(2) root@genericarmv8:~# cat HEST.dsl
