[PATCH RFC 0/4] ARM Error Source Table Support

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

 



This series adds support for the ARM Error Source Table (AEST) based on
the latest version of the AEST from ARM [0].

The AEST driver supports both memory mapped and system register interfaces.
This series assumes system register interfaces are only registered with
private peripheral interrupts (PPIs); otherwise there is no guarantee the
core handling the error is the core which took the error and has the
syndrome info in it's system registers.

SEAs and SEIs could also have syndrome information present in the RAS
extension system registers. That handling is tied into the system register
handling code.

This is meant to be initial support for AEST to address the current gaps
with systems that support ARMv8.2 RAS extensions but don't have
firmware-first support. This series simply logs all the errors it finds
and triggers a kernel panic if there is an UE present.

Future work:
- UER handling to avoid panic
- Looping through all external abort capable (ERR<n>FR.UE != 0) error
   nodes in SEA/SEI handling
- ARMv8.4 extension support
