Now, multiple CPUs can receive an external NMI simultaneously by specifying the "apic_extnmi=all" command line parameter. When we take a crash dump by using external NMI with this option, we fail to save registers into the crash dump. This happens as follows: CPU 0 CPU 1 ================================ ============================= receive an external NMI default_do_nmi() receive an external NMI spin_lock(&nmi_reason_lock) default_do_nmi() io_check_error() spin_lock(&nmi_reason_lock) panic() busy loop ... kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus() issue NMI IPI -----------> blocked until IRET busy loop... Here, since CPU 1 is in NMI context, an additional NMI from CPU 0 remains unhandled until CPU 1 IRETs. However, CPU 1 will never execute IRET so the NMI is not handled and the callback function to save registers is never called. To solve this issue, we check if the IPI for crash dumping was issued while waiting for nmi_reason_lock to be released, and if so, call its callback function directly. If the IPI is not issued (e.g. kdump is disabled), the actual behavior doesn't change. Signed-off-by:

Currently, kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus(), a subroutine of crash_kexec(), sends an NMI IPI to CPUs which haven't called panic() to stop them, save their register information and do some cleanups for crash dumping. However, if such a CPU is infinitely looping in NMI context, we fail to save its register information into the crash dump. For example, this can happen when unknown NMIs are broadcast to all CPUs as follows: CPU 0 CPU 1 =========================== ========================== receive an unknown NMI unknown_nmi_error() panic() receive an unknown NMI spin_trylock(&panic_lock) unknown_nmi_error() crash_kexec() panic() spin_trylock(&panic_lock) panic_smp_self_stop() infinite loop kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus() issue NMI IPI -----------> blocked until IRET infinite loop... Here, since CPU 1 is in NMI context, the second NMI from CPU 0 is blocked until CPU 1 executes IRET. However, CPU 1 never executes IRET, so the NMI is not handled and the callback function to save registers is never called. In practice, this can happen on some servers which broadcast NMIs to all CPUs when the NMI button is pushed. To save registers in this case, we need to: a) Return from NMI handler instead of looping infinitely or b) Call the callback function directly from the infinite loop Inherently, a) is risky because NMI is also used to prevent corrupted data from being propagated to devices. So, we chose b). This patch does the following: 1. Move the infinite looping of CPUs which haven't called panic() in NMI context (actually done by panic_smp_self_stop()) outside of panic() to enable us to refer pt_regs. Please note that panic_smp_self_stop() is still used for normal context. 2. Call a callback of kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus() directly to save registers and do some cleanups after setting waiting_for_crash_ipi which is used for counting down the number of CPUs which handled the callback Signed-off-by:

There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to kexec_load syscall. [akpm@linux-foundation.or...

The ASRock Q1900DC-ITX mainboard (Baytrail-D) hangs randomly in both BIOS and UEFI mode while rebooting unless reboot=pci is used. Add a quirk to reboot via the pci method. The problem is very intermittent and hard to debug, it might succeed rebooting just fine 40 times in a row - but fails half a dozen times the next day. It seems to be slightly less common in BIOS CSM mode than native UEFI (with the CSM disabled), but it does happen in either mode. Since I've started testing this patch in late january, rebooting has been 100% reliable. Most of the time it already hangs during POST, but occasionally it might even make it through the bootloader and the kernel might even start booting, but then hangs before the mode switch. The same symptoms occur with grub-efi, gummiboot and grub-pc, just as well as (at least) kernel 3.16-3.19 and 4.0-rc6 (I haven't tried older kernels than 3.16). Upgrading to the most current mainboard firmware of the ASRock Q1900DC-ITX, version 1.20, does not improve the situation. ( Searching the web seems to suggest that other Bay Trail-D mainboards might be affected as well. ) -- Signed-off-by:

It appears that the BayTrail-T class of hardware requires EFI in order to powerdown and reboot and no other reliable method exists.

Steve reported a reboot hang and bisected it back to this commit: a4f1987e x86, reboot: Add EFI and CF9 reboot methods into the default list He heroically tested all reboot methods and found the following: reboot=t # triple fault ok reboot=k # keyboard ctrl FAIL reboot=b # BIOS ok reboot=a # ACPI FAIL reboot=e # EFI FAIL [system has no EFI] reboot=p # PCI 0xcf9 FAIL And I think it's pretty obvious that we should only try PCI 0xcf9 as a last resort - if at all. The other observation is that (on this box) we should never try the PCI reboot method, but close with either the 'triple fault' or the 'BIOS' (terminal!) reboot methods. Thirdly, CF9_COND is a total misnomer - it should be something like CF9_SAFE or CF9_CAREFUL, and 'CF9' should be 'CF9_FORCE' ... So this patch fixes the worst problems: - it orders the actual reboot logic to follow the reboot ordering pattern - it was in a pretty random order before for no good reason. - it fixes the CF9 misnomers and uses BOOT_CF9_FORCE and BOOT_CF9_SAFE flags to make the code more obvious. - it tries the BIOS reboot method before the PCI reboot method. (Since 'BIOS' is a terminal reboot method resulting in a hang if it does not work, this is essentially equivalent to removing the PCI reboot method from the default reboot chain.) - just for the miraculous possibility of terminal (resulting in hang) reboot methods of triple fault or BIOS returning without having done their job, there's an ordering between them as well.

Only CF9_COND is appropriate for inclusion in the default chain, not CF9; the latter will poke that register unconditionally, whereas CF9_COND will at least look for PCI configuration method #1 or #2 first (a weak check, but better than nothing.) CF9 should be used for explicit system configuration (command line or DMI) only.

Li, Aubrey authored
Reboot is the last service linux OS provides to the end user. We are supposed to make this function more robust than today. This patch adds all of the known reboot methods into the default attempt list. The machines requiring reboot=efi or reboot=p or reboot=bios get a chance to reboot automatically now. If there is a new reboot method emerged, we are supposed to add it to the default list as well, instead of adding the endless dmidecode entry. If one method required is in the default list in this patch but the machine reboot still hangs, that means some methods ahead of the required method cause the system hangs, then reboot the machine by passing reboot= arguments and submit the reboot dmidecode table quirk. We are supposed to remove the reboot dmidecode table from the kernel, but to be safe, we keep it. This patch prevents us from adding more. If you happened to have a machine listed in the reboot dmidecode table and this patch makes reboot work on your machine, please submit a patch to remove the quirk. The default reboot order with this patch is now: ACPI > KBD > ACPI > KBD > EFI > CF9_COND > BIOS Because BIOS and TRIPLE are mutually exclusive (either will either work or hang the machine) that method is not included. [ hpa: as with any changes to the reboot order, this patch will have to be monitored carefully for regressions. ] Signed-off-by:

In current implementation for reboot type CF9 and CF9_COND, warm and cold reset are not differentiated, and both are performed by writing 0x06 to port 0xCF9. This commit will differentiate warm and cold reset: For warm reset, write 0x06 to port 0xCF9; For cold reset, write 0x0E to port 0xCF9. [ hpa: This meaning of "cold" and "warm" reset is different from other reboot types use, where "warm" means "bypass BIOS POST". It is also not entirely clear that it actually solves any actual problem. However, it would seem fairly harmless to offer this additional option. Also note that we do not mask bit 3 in the "warm reset" case. This preserves the behavior on existing systems, including ones quirked to use CF9. It seems reasonable that on any system where the warm/cold distinction actually matters that bit 3 would be read as zero. ] From: Liu Chuansheng <chuansheng.liu@intel.com> Signed-off-by:

Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware. The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become bricked. Also, the following report, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121 details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression, if (!efi_enabled) hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time. Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons - what they really want access to is the list of available EFI facilities. For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things). This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

With the revamped realmode trampoline code, it is trivial to extend support for reboot=bios to x86-64. Furthermore, while we are at it, remove the restriction that only we can only override the reboot CPU on 32 bits. Signed-off-by:

So disabling the local irq before stop_other_cpu() can fix this problem (tested 25 times reboot ok), and it is fine as there should be nobody caring the timer interrupt in such reboot stage. The latest 3.4 kernel slightly changes this behavior by sending REBOOT_VECTOR first and only send NMI_VECTOR if the REBOOT_VCTOR fails, and this patch is still needed to prevent the problem.

Use a more current logging style: - Bare printks should have a KERN_<LEVEL> for consistency's sake - Add pr_fmt where appropriate - Neaten some macro definitions - Convert some Ok output to OK - Use "%s: ", __func__ in pr_fmt for summit - Convert some printks to pr_<level> Message output is not identical in all cases.

This commit simply cleans up the style used in this file to fall in line with what's specified in CodingStyle. Mostly comment changes, with a single removal of unneeded braces.

This commit reduces the X86_32 reboot_dmi_table and the X86_64 pci_reboot_dmi_table into a single table with a single set of functions (e.g., only 1 call to core_initcall). The table entries that use set_bios_reboot are grouped together inside a #define CONFIG_X86_32 block. Note that there's a single entry that uses set_kbd_reboot, which used to be available only on X86_32. This commit moves that entry outside the X86_32 block because it seems it never should have been in there. There's multiple places in reboot.c that assume KBD is valid regardless of X86_32/X86_64.

This commit removes the reboot quirk originally added by commit e19e074b ("x86: Fix reboot problem on VersaLogic Menlow boards"). Testing with a VersaLogic Ocelot (VL-EPMs-21a rev 1.00 w/ BIOS 6.5.102) revealed the following regarding the reboot hang problem: - v2.6.37 reboot=bios was needed. - v2.6.38-rc1: behavior changed, reboot=acpi is needed, reboot=kbd and reboot=bios results in system hang. - v2.6.38: VersaLogic patch (e19e074b "x86: Fix reboot problem on VersaLogic Menlow boards") was applied prior to v2.6.38-rc7. This patch sets a quirk for VersaLogic Menlow boards that forces the use of reboot=bios, which doesn't work anymore. - v3.2: It seems that commit 660e34ce ("x86: Reorder reboot method preferences") changed the default reboot method to acpi prior to v3.0-rc1, which means the default behavior is appropriate for the Ocelot. No VersaLogic quirk is required. The Ocelot board used for testing can successfully reboot w/out hav...

Looks like on some Acer Aspire 1s with older bioses, reboot via bios fails. It works on my machine, (with BIOS version 0.3310) but not on some others (BIOS version 0.3309). There's a log of problems at: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=124136 This patch adds a different callback to the reboot quirk table, to allow rebooting via keybaord controller.

Just convert all the files that have an nmi handler to the new routines. Most of it is straight forward conversion. A couple of places needed some tweaking like kgdb which separates the debug notifier from the nmi handler and mce removes a call to notify_die. [Thanks to Ying for finding out the history behind that mce call https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/27/114 And Boris responding that he would like to remove that call because of it https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/21/163 ] The things that get converted are the registeration/unregistration routines and the nmi handler itself has its args changed along with code removal to check which list it is on (most are on one NMI list except for kgdb which has both an NMI routine and an NMI Unknown routine).

Rebooting on the Dell E5420 often hangs with the keyboard or ACPI methods, but is reliable via the PCI method. [ hpa: this was deferred because we believed for a long time that the recent reshuffling of the boot priorities in commit 660e34ce fixed this platform. Unfortunately that turned out to be incorrect. ] Signed-off-by:
