[PATCH 0/7] tip-queue 2015-12-14

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

Hi Ingo,

here's a pile which addresses issues which arise when using an NMI
button on certain platforms which provide it, to cause an external NMI
and thus cause a concurrent kdump to fail. For that, we're getting a
new cmdline option called "apic_extnmi" which can control which CPUs
(or none) to receive the external NMI. The default behavior is what the
kernel does currently - only the BSP receives it.

I've made sure that each commit message explains in great detail what
the problem is as this whole area is not trivial.

Please apply,
thanks.

[PATCH 1/7] panic, x86: Fix re-entrance problem due to panic on NMI

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com>

If panic on NMI happens just after panic() on the same CPU, panic() is
recursively called. Kernel stalls, as a result, after failing to acquire
panic_lock.

To avoid this problem, don't call panic() in NMI context if we've
already entered panic().

For that, introduce nmi_panic() macro to reduce code duplication. In
the case of panic on NMI, don't return from NMI handlers if another CPU
already panicked.

[PATCH 2/7] panic, x86: Allow CPUs to save registers even if looping in NMI context

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com>

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

[PATCH 3/7] kexec: Fix race between panic() and crash_kexec()

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com>

Currently, panic() and crash_kexec() can be called at the same time.
For example (x86 case):

CPU 0:
  oops_end()
    crash_kexec()
      mutex_trylock() // acquired
        nmi_shootdown_cpus() // stop other CPUs

CPU 1:
  panic()
    crash_kexec()
      mutex_trylock() // failed to acquire
    smp_send_stop() // stop other CPUs
    infinite loop

If CPU 1 calls smp_send_stop() before nmi_shootdown_cpus(), kdump
fails.

In another case:

CPU 0:
  oops_end()
    crash_kexec()
      mutex_trylock() // acquired
        <NMI>
        io_check_error()
          panic()
            crash_kexec()
              mutex_trylock() // failed to acquire
            infinite loop

Clearly, this is an undesirable result.

To fix this problem, this patch changes crash_kexec() to exclude others
by using the panic_cpu atomic.

[PATCH 4/7] x86/apic: Introduce apic_extnmi command line parameter

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com>

This patch introduces a command line parameter apic_extnmi:

 apic_extnmi=( bsp|all|none )

The default value is "bsp" and this is the current behavior: only the
Boot-Strapping Processor receives an external NMI.

"all" allows external NMIs to be broadcast to all CPUs. This would
raise the success rate of panic on NMI when BSP hangs in NMI context
or the external NMI is swallowed by other NMI handlers on the BSP.

If you specify "none", no CPUs receive external NMIs. This is useful for
the dump capture kernel so that it cannot be shot down by accidentally
pressing the external NMI button (on platforms which have it) while
saving a crash dump.

[PATCH 5/7] x86/nmi: Save regs in crash dump on external NMI

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com>

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.
