Maybe I’m missing something obvious, but what’s the alternative?  The _mcsafe variants don’t just avoid the REP mess — they also tell the kernel that this particular access is recoverable via extable. With a regular memory access, the CPU may not explode, but do_machine_check() will, at very best, OOPS, and even that requires a certain degree of optimism.  A panic is more likely.

.. which they could easily do exactly the same way the user space
accessors do, just with a much simplified model that doesn't even care
about multiple sizes, since unaligned accesses weren't valid anyway.

The thing is, all of the MCS code has been nasty. There's no reason
for it what-so-ever that I can tell. The hardware has been so
incredibly broken that it's basically unusable, and most of the
software around it seems to have been about testing.

So I absolutely abhor that thing. Everything about that code has
screamed "yeah, we completely mis-designed the hardware, we're pushing
the problems into software, and nobody even uses it or can test it so
there's like 5 people who care".

And I'm pushing back on it, because I think that the least the code
can do is to at least be simple.

For example, none of those optimizations should exist. That function
shouldn't have been inline to begin with. And if it really really
matters from a performance angle that it was inline (which I doubt),
it shouldn't have looked like a memory copy, it should have looked
like "get_user()" (except without all the complications of actually
having to test addresses or worry about different sizes).

And it almost certainly shouldn't have been done in low-level asm
either. It could have been a single "read aligned word" interface
using an inline asm, and then everything else could have been done as
C code around it.

But no. The software side is almost as messy as the hardware side is.
I hate it. And since nobody sane can test it, and the broken hardware
is _so_ broken than nobody should ever use it, I have continually
pushed back against this kind of ugly nasty special code.

We know the writes can't fault, since they are buffered. So they
aren't special at all.

We know the acceptable reads for the broken hardware basically boil
down to a single simple word-size aligned read, so you need _one_
special inline asm for that. The rest of the cases can be handled by
masking and shifting if you really really need to - and done better
that way than with byte accesses anyway.

Then you have _one_ C file that implements everything using that
single operation (ok, if people absolutely want to do sizes, I guess
they can if they can just hide it in that one file), and you have one
header file that exposes the interfaces to it, and you're done.

And you strive hard as hell to not impact anything else, because you
know that the hardware is unacceptable until all those special rules
go away. Which they apparently finally have.

Do we have examples of doing exception handling from C? I thought all
the exception handling copy routines were assembly routines?

The writes can mmu-fault now that memcpy_mcsafe() is also used by
_copy_to_iter_mcsafe(). This allows a clean bypass of the block layer
in fs/dax.c in addition to the pmem driver access of poisoned memory.
Now that the fallback is a sane rep; movs; it can be considered for
plain copy_to_iter() for other user copies so you get exception
handling on kernel access of poison outside of persistent memory. To
Andy's point I think a recoverable copy (for exceptions or faults) is
generally useful.

I understand the gripes about the mcsafe_slow() implementation, but
how do I implement mcsafe_fast() any better than how it is currently
organized given that, setting aside machine check handling,
memcpy_mcsafe() is the core of a copy_to_iter*() front-end that can
mmu-fault on either source or destination access?

You need assembler for the actual access, but that's a _single_
instruction - best done as inline asm.

The best example of something that does *exactly* what you want to do is likely

        unsafe_get_user();
        unsafe_put_user();

which basically turns into a single instruction with exception
handling, with the exception hander jumping directly to an error
label.

Ok, so right now gcc can't do that for inline asm with outputs, so it
generates fairly nasty code (a secondary register with the error state
that then causes a conditional branch on it), but that's a compiler
limitation that will eventually go away (where "eventially" means that
it already works in LLVM with experimental patches).

You could literally mis-use those helpers as-is (please don't - the
code generation is correct, but at the very least we'd have to
re-organize a bit to make it a better interface, ie have an
alternative name like "unsafe_get_kernel()" for kernel pointer
accesses).

You'd have to do the alignment guarantees yourself, but there are
examples of that in this area too (strnlen_user() does exactly that -
aligned word accesses).

So the point here is that the current interfaces are garbage, _if_ the
whole "access a single value" is actually performance-critical.

And if that is *not* the case, then the best thing to do is likely to
just use a static call. No inlining of single instructions at all,
just always use a function call, and then pick the function
appropriately.

Honestly, I can't imagine that the "single access" case is so
timing-critical that the static call isn't the right model. Your use
case is _not_ as important or common as doing user accesses.

Finally, the big question is whether the completely broken hardware
even matters. Are there actual customers that actually use the garbage
"we can crash the machine" stuff?

Because when it comes to things like nvdimms etc, the _primary_
performance target would be getting the kernel entirely out of the
way, and allowing databases etc to just access the damn thing
directly.

And if you allow user space to access it directly, then you just have
to admit that it's not a software issue any more - it's the hardware
that is terminally broken and unusable garbage. It's not even
interesting to work around things in the kernel, because user space
can just crash the machine directly.

This is why I absolutely detest that thing so much. The hardware is
_so_ fundamentally broken that I have always considered the kernel
workarounds to basically be "staging" level stuff - good enough for
some random testing of known-broken stuff, but not something that
anybody sane should ever use.

So my preference would actually be to just call the broken cases to be
largely ignored, at least from a performance angle. If you can only
access it through the kernel, the biggest performance limitation is
that you cannot do any DAX-like thing at all safely, so then the
performance of some kernel accessors is completely secondary and
meaningless. When a kernel entry/exit takes a few thousand cycles on
the broken hardware (due to _other_ bugs), what's the point about
worrying about trying to inline some single access to the nvdimm?

Did the broken hardware ever spread out into the general public?
Because if not, then the proper thing to do might be to just make it a
compile-time option for the (few) customers that signed up for testing
the initial broken stuff, and make the way _forward_ be a clean model
without the need to worry about any exceptions at all.

I think that's completely independent.

If we have good reasons for having targets with exception handling,
then that has absolutely nothing to do with machine checks or buggy
hardware.

And it sure shouldn't be called "mcsafe", since it has nothing to do
with that situation any more.

So honestly, once it is NOT about the broken machine check garbage,
then it should be sold on its own independent reasons.

Do we want to have a "copy_to_iter_safe" that can handle page faults?
Because we have lots of those kinds of things, we have

 - load_unaligned_zeropad()

   This loads a single word knowing that the _first_ byte is valid,
but can take an exception and zero-pad if it crosses a page boundary

 - probe_kernel_read()/write()

   This is a kernel memcpy() with the source/destination perhaps being unmapped.

 - various perf and tracing helpers that have special semantics.

but once it's about some generic interface, then it also needs to take
other architectures into account.

Ok, I'll take a deeper look, but my initial reaction is that this
approach could be a way to replace memcpy_mcsafe_slow(), but would be
unfortunate for the fast case which can just use rep; movs;

There are 3 classes of hardware, all of them trigger exceptions* it's
just the recoverability of those exceptions that is different:

1/ Recovery not supported all exceptions report PCC=1 (processor
context corrupted) and the kernel decides to panic.

2/ Recovery supported, user processes killed on consumption, panic on
kernel consumption outside of an exception handler instrumented code
path. Unfortunately there is no architectural way to distinguish
class1 from class2 outside of a PCI quirk whitelist. The kernel prior
to memcpy_mcsafe() just unconditionally enabled recovery for user
consumption, panicked on kernel consumption, and hoped that exceptions
are sent with PCC=0. The introduction of memcpy_mcsafe() to handle
poison consumption from kernel-space without a panic introduced this
not pretty caveat that some platforms needed to do special snowflake
memcpy to avoid known scenarios** that trigger PCC=1 when they could
otherwise trigger PCC=0. So a PCI quirk whitelist was added for those.

3/ Recovery supported *and* special snowflake memcpy rules relaxed.
Still no architectural way to discover this state so let us just
enable memcpy_mcsafe_fast() always and let the former whitelist become
a blacklist of "this CPU requires you to do a dance to avoid some
PCC=1 cases, but that dance impacts performance".

* I'm at a loss of why you seem to be suggesting that hardware should
/ could avoid all exceptions. What else could hardware do besides
throw an exception on consumption of a naturally occuring multi-bit
ECC error? Data is gone, and only software might know how to recover.

** Unaligned access across a cacheline boundary, fast string consumption...

For the fast case it's really just copy_user_enhanced_fast_string()
without forced stac/clac when the source and dest are both kernel
accesses.

This is classic bogus thinking.

If Intel ever makes ECC DRAM available to everybody, there would be a
_shred_ of logic to that thinking, but right now it's some hw designer
in their mom's basement that has told you that hardware has to throw a
synchronous exception because hardware doesn't know any better.

That hardware designer really doesn't have a _clue_ about the big issues.

The fact is, a synchronous machine check exception is about the
_worst_ thing you can ever do when you encounter something like a
memory error.

It literally means that the software cannot possibly do anything sane
to recover, because the software is in some random place. The hardware
designer didn't think about the fact that the low-level access is
hidden from the software by a compiler and/or a lot of other
infrastructure - maybe microcode, maybe the OS, maybe a scriping
language, yadda yadda.

Absolutely NOBODY can recover at the level of one instruction. The
microcode people already proved that. At the level of "memcpy()", you
do not have a recovery option.

A hardware designer that tells you that you have to magically recover
at an instruction boundary fundamentally DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THE
PROBLEM.

IOW, you have completely uncritically just taken that incorrect
statement of "what else could hardware do" without questioning that
hardware designer AT ALL.

And remember, this is likely the same hardware designer that told you
that it's a good idea to then make machine checks go to every single
CPU in the system.

And this is the same hardware designer that then didn't even give you
enough information to recover.

And this is the same hardware designer that made recovery impossible
anyway, because if the error happened in microcode or in some other
situation, the microcode COULDN'T HANDLE IT EITHER!

In other words, you are talking to people WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE INCOMPETENT.

Seriously. Question them. When they tell ytou that "it's the only
thing we can possibly do", they do so from being incompetent, and we
have the history to PROVE it.

I don't understand why nobody else seems to be pushing back against
the completely insane and known garbage that is the Intel machine
checks. They are wrong.

The fact is, synchronous errors are the absolute worst possible
interface, exactly because they cause problems in various nasty corner
cases.

We _know_ a lot of those corner cases, for chrissake:

 - random standard library routine like "memcpy". How the hell do you
think a memcpy can recover? It can't.

 - Unaligned handling where "one" access isn't actually a single access.

 - microcode. Intel saw this problem themselves, but instead of making
people realize "oh, synchronous exceptions don't work that well" and
think about the problem, they wasted our time for decades, and then
probably spent a lot of effort in trying to make them work.

 - random generic code that isn't able to handle the fault, because IT
SHOULDN'T NEED TO CARE. Low-level filesystems, user mappings, the list
just goes on.

The only thing that can recover tends to be at a *MUCH* higher level
than one instruction access.

So the next time somebody tells you "there's nothing else we can do",
call them out on being incompetent, and call them out on the fact that
history has _shown_ that they are incompetent and wrong. Over and over
again.

I can _trivially_ point to a number of "what else could we do" that
are much better options.

 (a) let the corrupted value through, notify things ASYNCHRONOUSLY
that there were problems, and let people handle the issue later when
they are ready to do so.

Yeah, the data was corrupt - but not allowing the user to read it may
mean that the whole file is now inaccessible, even if it was just a
single ECC block that was wrong. I don't know the block-size people
use for ECC, and the fact is, software shouldn't really even need to
care. I may be able to recover from the situation at a higher level.
The data may be recoverable other ways - including just a "I want even
corrupted data, because I might have enough context that I can make
sense of it anyway".

 (b) if you have other issues so that you don't have data at all
(maybe it was metadata that was corrupted, don't ask me how that would
happen), just return zeroes, and notify about the problem
ASYNCHRONOUSLY.

And when notifying, give as much useful information as possible: the
virtual and physical address of the data, please, in addition to maybe
lower level bank information. Add a bit for "multiple errors", so that
whoever then later tries to maybe recover, can tell if it has complete
data or not.

The OS can send a SIGBUS with that information to user land that can
then maybe recover. Or it can say "hey, I'm in some recovery mode,
I'll try to limp along with incomplete data". Sometimes "recover"
means "try to limp along, notify the user that their hw is going bad,
but try to use the data anyway".

Again, what Intel engineers actually did with the synchronous
non-recoverable thing was not "the only thing I could possibly have
done".

It was literally the ABSOLUTE WORST POSSIBLE THING they could do, with
potentially  a dead machine as a result.

And now - after years of pain - you have the gall to repeat that
idiocy that you got from people who have shown themselves to be
completely wrong in the past?

Why?

Why do you take their known wrong approach as unthinking gospel? Just
because it's been handed down over generations on stone slabs?

I really really detest the whole mcsafe garbage. And I absolutely
*ABHOR* how nobody inside of Intel has apparently ever questioned the
brokenness at a really fundamental level.

That "I throw my hands in the air and just give up" thing is a
disease. It's absolutely not "what else could we do".

So I grew up in the early part of my career validating ARM CPUs where
a data-abort was either precise or imprecise and the precise error
could be handled like a page fault as you know which instruction
faulted and how to restart the thread. So I didn't take x86 CPU
designers' word for it, I honestly thought that "hmm the x86 machine
check thingy looks like it's trying to implement precise vs imprecise
data-aborts, and precise / synchronous is maybe a good thing because
it's akin to a page fault". I didn't consider asynchronous to be
better because that means there is a gap between when the data
corruption is detected and when it might escape the system that some
external agent could trust the result and start acting on before the
asynchronous signal is delivered.

The thing is, absolutely nobody cares whether you start acting on the
wrong data or not.

Even if you use the wrong data as a pointer, and get other wrong data
behind it (or take an exception), that doesn't change a thing: the end
result is still the exact same thing "unpredictably wrong data". You
didn't really make things worse by continuing, and people who care
about some very particular case can easily add a barrier to get any
error before they go past some important point.

It's not like Intel hasn't done that before. It's how legacy FP
instructions work - and while the legacy FP unit had horrendous
problems, the delayed exception wasn't one of them (routing it to
irq13 was, but that's on IBM, not Intel). Async exception handling
simplifies a lot of problems, and in fact, if you then have explicit
"check now" points (which the Intel FPU also had, as long as you
didn't have that nasty irq13 routing), it simplifies software too.

So there is no _advantage_ to being synchronous to the source of the
problem.  There is only pain.

There are lots and lots of disadvantages, most of them being
variations - on many different levesl of - "it hit at a point where I
cannot recover".

The microcode example is one such example that Intel engineers should
really take to heart. But the real take-away is that it is only _one_
such example. And making the microcode able to recover doesn't fix all
the _other_ places that aren't able to recover at that point, or fix
the fundamental pain.

For example, for the kernel, NMI's tend to be pretty special things,
and we simply may not be able to handle errors inside an NMI context.
It's not all that unlike the intel microcode example, just at another
level.

But we have lots of other situations. We have random
compiler-generated code, and we're simply not able to take exceptions
at random stages and expect to recover. We have very strict rules
about "this might be unsafe", and a normal memory access of a trusted
pointer IS NOT IT.

But at a higher level, something like "strnlen()" - or any other
low-level library routine - isn't really all that different from
microcode for most programs. We don't want to have a million copies of
"standard library routine, except for nvram".

The whole - and ONLY - point of something like nvram is that it's
supposed to act like memory. It's part of the name, and it's very much
part of the whole argument for why it's a good idea.

And the advantage of it being memory is that you are supposed to be
able to do all those random operations that you just do normally on
any memory region - ask for string lengths, do copies, add up numbers,
look for patterns. Without having to do an "IO" operation for it.

Taking random synchronous faults is simply not acceptable. It breaks
that fundamental principle.

Maybe you have a language with a try/catch/throw model of exception
handling - but one where throwing exceptions is constrained to happen
for documented operations, not any random memory access. That's very
common, and kind of like what the kernel exception handling does by
hand.

So an allocation failure can throw an exception, but once you've
allocated memory, the language runtime simply depends on knowing that
it has pointer safety etc, and normal accesses won't throw an
exception.

In that kind of model, you can easily add a model where "SIGBUS sets a
flag, we'll handle it at catch time", but that depends on things being
able to just continue _despite_ the error.

So a source-synchronous error can be really hard to handle. Exception
handling at random points is simply really really tough in general -
and there are few more random and more painful points than some "I
accessed memory".

So no. An ECC error is nothing like a page fault. A page fault you
have *control* over. You can have a language without the ability to
generate wild pointers, or you can have a language like C where wild
pointers are possible, but they are a bug. So you can work on the
assumption that a page fault is always entirely invisible to the
program at hand.

A synchronous ECC error doesn't have that "entirely invisible to the
program at hand" behavior.

And yes, I've asked for ECC for regular memory for regular CPU's from
Intel for over two decades now. I do NOT want their broken machine
check model with it. I don't even necessarily want the "correction"
part of it - I want reporting of "your hardware / the results of your
computation is no longer reliable". I don't want a dead machine, I
don't want some worry about "what happens if I get an ECC error in
NMI", I don't want any of the problems that come from taking an
absolute "ECC errors are fatal" approach. I just want "an error
happened", with as much information about where it happened as
possible.

I think they do. If the result of the wrong data has already
been sent out the network before you process the signal, then you
will need far smarter application software than has ever been written
to hunt it down and stop the spread of the bogus result.

Stopping dead on the instruction before it consumes the data
means you can "recover" by killing just one process, or just one
VMM guest.

I'm in total agreement the machine check (especially broadcast)
was a bad choice for how to "stop on a dime". But I can't see
how you could possibly decide what to do if you let thousands
of instructions retire based on a bad data value before you even
know that it happened.

Bah. That's a completely red herring argument.

By "asynchronous" I don't mean "hours later".

Make it be "interrupts are enabled, before serializing instruction".

Yes, we want bounded error handling latency. But that doesn't mean "synchronous"

Another X86 vendor seems to be adding something like that. See MCOMMIT
in https://www.amd.com/system/files/TechDocs/24594.pdf

But I wonder how an OS will know whether it is running some smart
MCOMMIT-aware application that can figure out what to do with bad
data, or a legacy application that should probably be stopped before
it hurts somebody.

I also wonder how expensive MCOMMIT is (since it is essentially
polling for "did any errors happen").

That sounds potentially very expensive.

Particularly, as you say, something like the kernel (or
virtualization) may want to at least test for it cheaply on entry or
switch or whatever.

I do think you want the mcommit kind of thing for writing, but I think
the intel model of (no longer pcommit) using a writeback instruction
with a range, and then just sfence is better than a "commit
everything" thing.

But that's just for writing things, and that's fundamentally very
different from the read side errors.

So for the read-side you'd want some kind of "lfence and report"
instruction for the "did I see load errors". Very cheap like lfence,
so that there wouldn't really be a cost for the people if somebody
_really_ want to get notified immediately.

And again, it might just be part of any serializing instruction. I
don't care that much, although overloading "serializing instruction"
even more sounds like a bad idea.

Ah, now it's finally sinking in, it's the fact that if the model had
been from the beginning to require software to issue a barrier if it
wants to resolve pending memory errors that would have freed up the
implementation to leave error handling to a higher-level / more less
constrained part of the software stack.

Right, and I had a short cry/laugh when realizing that the current
implementation still correctly sends SIGBUS to userspace consumed
poison, but the kernel regressed because it's special synchronous
handling was no longer be correctly deployed.

The optimal model would likely be a new instruction that could be done
in user space and test for it, possibly without any exception at all
(because the thing that checks for errors is also presumably the only
thing that can decide how to recover - so raising an exception doesn't
necessarily help).

Together with a way for the kernel to save/restore the exception state
on task switch (presumably in the xsave area) so that the error state
of one process doesn't affect another one. Bonus points if it's all
per-security level, so that a pure user-level error report doesn't
poison the kernel state and vice versa.

That is _very_ similar to how FPU exceptions work right now. User
space can literally do an operation that creates an error on one CPU,
get re-scheduled to another one, and take the actual signal and read
the exception state on that other CPU.

(Of course, the "not even take an exception" part is different).

An alternate very simple model that doesn't require any new
instructions and no new architecturally visible state (except of
course the actual error data) would be to just be raising a *maskable*
trap (with the Intel definition of trap vs exception: a trap happens
_after_ the instruction).

The trap could be on the next instruction if people really want to be
that precise, but I don't think it even matters. If it's delayed until
the next serializing instruction, that would probably be just fine
too.

But the important thing is that it

 (a) is a trap, not an exception - so the instruction has been done,
and you don't need to try to emulate it or anything to continue.

 (b) is maskable, so that the trap handler can decide to just mask it
and return (and set a separate flag to then handle it later)

With domain transfers either being barriers, or masking it (so NMI and
external interrupts would presumably mask it for latency reasons)?

I dunno. Wild handwaving. But much better than that crazy
unrecoverable machine check model.

Maybe for errors on the data side of the pipeline. On the instruction
side we can usually recover from user space instruction fetches by
just throwing away the page with the corrupted instructions and reading
from disk into a new page. Then just point the page table to the new
page, and hey presto, its all transparently fixed (modulo time lost fixing
things).

That's true for things like ECC on real RAM, with traditional executables.

It's not so true of something like nvram that you execute out of
directly. There is not necessarily a disk to re-read things from.

But it's also not true of things like JIT's. They are kind of a big
thing. Asking the JIT to do "hey, I faulted at a random point, you
need to re-JIT" is no different from all the other "that's a _really_
painful recovery point, please delay it".

Sure, the JIT environment will probably just have to kill that thread
anyway, but I do think this falls under the same "you're better off
giving the _option_ to just continue and hope for the best" than force
a non-recoverable state.

For regular ECC, I literally would like the machine to just always
continue. I'd like to be informed that there's something bad going on
(because it might be RAM going bad, but it might also be a rowhammer
attack), but the decision to kill things or not should ultimately be
the *users*, not the JIT's, not the kernel.

So the basic rule should be that you should always have the _option_
to just continue. The corrupted state might not be critical - or it
might be the ECC bits themselves, not the data.

There are situations where stopping everything is worse than "let's
continue as best we can, and inform the user with a big red blinking
light".

ECC should not make things less reliable, even if it's another 10+% of
bits that can go wrong.

It should also be noted that even a good ECC pattern _can_ miss
corruption if you're unlucky with the corruption. So the whole
black-and-white model of "ECC means you need to stop everything" is
questionable to begin with, because the signal isn't that absolute in
the first place.

So when somebody brings up a "what if I use corrupted data and make
things worse", they are making an intellectually dishonest argument.
What if you saw corrupted data and simply never caught it, because it
was a unlucky multi-bit failure"?

There is no "absolute" thing about ECC. The only thing that is _never_
wrong is to report it and try to continue, and let some higher-level
entity decide what to do.

And that final decision might literally be "I ran this simulation for
2 days, I see that there's an error report, I will buy a new machine.
For now I'll use the data it generated, but I'll re-run to validate it
later".

x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}()

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.

Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().

Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.

One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

That export together with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS causes

It doesn't look like it is toolchain-specific and in both cases,
copy_mc_fragile's checksum is 0.

SUSE Leap 15.1:

0x00000000      copy_mc_fragile vmlinux EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL

Ok, I think I have it:

Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2020 18:55:35 +0200
Subject: [PATCH] x86/mce: Allow for copy_mc_fragile symbol checksum to be generated

Add asm/mce.h to asm/asm-prototypes.h so that that asm symbol's checksum
can be generated in order to support CONFIG_MODVERSIONS with it and fix:

  WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "copy_mc_fragile" [vmlinux] version \
	  generation failed, symbol will not be versioned.

For reference see:

  4efca4ed05cb ("kbuild: modversions for EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm")
  334bb7738764 ("x86/kbuild: enable modversions for symbols exported from asm")

Fixes: ec6347bb4339 ("x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}()")

Oh nice! I just sent a patch [1] to fix this up as well, but mine goes
after minimizing when it is exported, I think perhaps both are needed.

Yeah, for some reason it took you a while to see it - wondering if your
mail servers are slow again.

Looks like it. 

Why not rip out COPY_MC_TEST altogether though? Or you wanna do that
after the merge window?

It would be good to not have that export in 5.10 final if it is not
really needed.

Thx.

I'll draft a patch to rip it out. If you have a chance to grab it
before the merge window, great, if not I can funnel it through
nvdimm.git since the bulk of it will be touching
tools/testing/nvdimm/.

Yeah, this is not urgent stuff to queue it now so I'd prefer it if
you funneled it after the merge window. It is enough that it lands in
5.10-final, I'd say, so that the export doesn't see an official release.

Thx.

Yes, I'm seeing this too on Fedora, I'll take a look.

[PATCH] x86/mce: Gate copy_mc_fragile() export by CONFIG_COPY_MC_TEST=y

[Dan Williams]

It appears that modpost is not happy about exporting assembly symbols
that are not consumed in the same build. As Boris reports:

    WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "copy_mc_fragile" [vmlinux] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned.

The export is only consumed in the CONFIG_COPY_MC_TEST=y case, and even
then not in a way that modpost could see. CONFIG_COPY_MC_TEST uses a
module built in tools/testing/nvdimm/ to exercise the copy_mc_fragile()
corner cases.  Given the test already requires manually editing the
config entry for CONFIG_COPY_MC_TEST to make it "def_bool y" the
additional dependency to require is CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=n is not too
onerous.

Alternatively, COPY_MC_TEST and its related infrastructure could just be
ripped out because it has served its purpose. For now, just stop
exporting the symbol by default, and add the MODVERSIONS dependency to
the test.

x86/mce: Allow for copy_mc_fragile symbol checksum to be generated

Add asm/mce.h to asm/asm-prototypes.h so that that asm symbol's checksum
can be generated in order to support CONFIG_MODVERSIONS with it and fix:

  WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "copy_mc_fragile" [vmlinux] version \
	  generation failed, symbol will not be versioned.

For reference see:
