The aim of this series is to wire arm64's SDEI into APEI. On arm64 we have three APEI notifications that are NMI-like, and in the unlikely event that all three are supported by a platform, they can interrupt each other. The GHES driver shouldn't have to deal with this, so this series aims to make it re-entrant. To do that, we refactor the estatus queue to allow multiple notifications to use it, then convert NOTIFY_SEA to always be described as NMI-like, and to use the estatus queue. >From here we push the locking and fixmap choices out to the notification functions, and remove the use of per-ghes estatus and flags. This removes the in_nmi() 'timebomb' in ghes_copy_tofrom_phys(). Things get sticky when an NMI notification needs to know how big the CPER records might be, before reading it. This series splits ghes_estatus_read() to let us peek at the buffer. A side effect of this is the 20byte header will get read twice. (how does it work today? it reads the records into a per-ghes worst-case sized buffer, allocates the correct size and copies the records. in_nmi() use of this per-ghes buffer needs eliminating). One alternative was to trust firmware's 'max raw data length' and use that to allocate 'enough' memory. We don't use this value today, so its probably wrong on some sytem somewhere. Since v4 patches 5,8-15 are new, otherwise changes are noted in the patch. The earlier boiler-plate: What's SDEI? Its ARM's "Software Delegated Exception Interface" [0]. It's used by firmware to tell the OS about firmware-first RAS events. These Software exceptions can interrupt anything, so I describe them as NMI-like. They aren't the only NMI-like way to notify the OS about firmware-first RAS events, the ACPI spec also defines 'NOTFIY_SEA' and 'NOTIFY_SEI'. (Acronyms: SEA, Synchronous External Abort. The CPU requested some memory, but the owner of that memory said no. These are always synchronous with the instruction that caused them. SEI, System-Error Interrupt, commonly called SError. This is an asynchronous external abort, the memory-owner didn't say no at the right point. Collectively these things are called external-aborts How is firmware involved? It traps these and re-injects them into the kernel once its written the CPER records). APEI's GHES code only expects one source of NMI. If a platform implements more than one of these mechanisms, APEI needs to handle the interaction. 'SEA' and 'SEI' can interact as 'SEI' is asynchronous. SDEI can interact with itself: its exceptions can be 'normal' or 'critical', and firmware could use both types for RAS. (errors using normal, 'panic-now' using critical). ghes.c became clearer to me when I worked out that it has three sets of functions with 'estatus' in the name. One is a pool of memory that can be allocated-from atomically. This is grown/shrunk when new NMI users are allocated. The second is the estatus-cache, which holds recent notifications so it can suppress notifications we've already handled. The last it the estatus-queue, which holds data from NMI-like notifications (in pool memory) to be processed from irq_work. Testing? Tested with the SDEI FVP based software model and a mocked up NOTFIY_SEA using KVM. I've added a case where 'corrected errors' are discovered at probe time to exercise ghes_probe() during boot. I've only build tested this on x86.
