The ghes_edac driver was introduced in 2013 [1], but it has not been
enabled by any distro yet.  This is because the driver obtains error
info from firmware interfaces, which are not properly implemented on
many platforms.

To get out from this situation, add a platform check to selectively
enable the driver on the platforms that are known to have proper
firmware implementation.  Platform vendors can add their platforms to
the list when they support ghes_edac.

Patch 1-2 introduces a common function for platform check.
Patch 3 introduces platform check to ghes_edac.
Patch 4-5 optimizes regular edac driver's init code when ghes_edac is used.

Patch-set is based on bp.git ghes branch.

v4:
 - Increase the size of oem_id[] and oem_table_id[] by 1 (patch 1)
 - Change code style to a single line (patch 1)
 - Rebase to top of bp.git ghes branch.

v3:
 - Change struct & func names to "platform" from "oem" (patch 1)
 - Drop a patch that checks OSC APEI bit (remove v2 patch 3)
 - Drop a patch that avoids multiple calls to dmi_walk() (remove v2 patch 4)
 - Change parameter name to ghes_edac.force_load (patch 3)
 - Change function to edac_get_owner() (patch 4)
 - Change edac_mc_owner to const char * (patch 4)
 - Change to call edac_get_owner() at the beginning (patch 5)
 - Remove ".c" from mod_name (patch 5)

v2:
 - Address review comments (patch 1)
 - Add OSC APEI check (patch 3)
 - Avoid multiple dmi_walk (patch 4)
 - Add EDAC MC owner check (patch 6,7)

Toshi Kani (5):
 1/5 ACPI / blacklist: add acpi_match_platform_list()
 2/5 intel_pstate: convert to use acpi_match_platform_list()
 3/5 ghes_edac: add platform check to enable ghes_edac
 4/5 EDAC: add edac_get_owner() to check MC owner
 5/5 edac drivers: add MC owner check in init

ACPI OEM ID / OEM Table ID / Revision can be used to identify
a platform based on ACPI firmware info.  acpi_blacklisted(),
intel_pstate_platform_pwr_mgmt_exists(), and some other funcs,
have been using similar check to detect a list of platforms
that require special handlings.

Move the platform check in acpi_blacklisted() to a new common
utility function, acpi_match_platform_list(), so that other
drivers do not have to implement their own version.

There is no change in functionality.

The ghes_edac driver was introduced in 2013 [1], but it has not
been enabled by any distro yet.  This driver obtains error info
from firmware interfaces, which are not properly implemented on
many platforms, as the driver always emits the messages below:

 This EDAC driver relies on BIOS to enumerate memory and get error reports.
 Unfortunately, not all BIOSes reflect the memory layout correctly
 So, the end result of using this driver varies from vendor to vendor
 If you find incorrect reports, please contact your hardware vendor
 to correct its BIOS.

To get out from this situation, add a platform check to selectively
enable the driver on the platforms that are known to have proper
firmware implementation.  Platform vendors can add their platforms
to the list when they support ghes_edac.

"ghes_edac.force_load=1" skips this platform check.

Only a single edac driver can be enabled for EDAC MC.  When ghes_edac
is enabled, a regular edac driver for the CPU type / platform still
attempts to register itself and fails in edac_mc_add_mc().

Add edac_get_owner() so that regular edac drivers can check the owner
of EDAC MC without calling edac_mc_add_mc().

Change generic x86 edac drivers, which probe CPU type with
x86_match_cpu(), to verify the module owner at the beginning
of their module init functions.  This allows them to fail
their init immediately when ghes_edac is enabled.  Similar
change can be made to other edac drivers as necessary.

Also, remove ".c" from module names of pnp2_edac, sb_edac,
and skx_edac.

If you align the second part of the test like this:

             if ((plat->pred == all_versions) ||
                 (plat->pred == less_than_or_equal	&& hdr.oem_revision <= plat->oem_revision) ||
                 (plat->pred == greater_than_or_equal	&& hdr.oem_revision >= plat->oem_revision) ||
                 (plat->pred == equal			&& hdr.oem_revision == plat->oem_revision))

it gets maximally readable. But I'd leave that up to Rafael when committing
- no need to send another version.

Other than that:

OK

So what about the [3-5/5] in this series?

My current plan is to apply them too and expose a branch with them, can I
go ahead with that?

No, please expose a branch with only the ACPI patches, i.e., 1 and 2 and
I can merge it and apply the EDAC patches ontop.

Then you and I need to sync up so that you send your pull requests first
and I follow you so that Linus applies them in the proper order.

Makes sense?

It is static - "force_load" as a bool name is enough.

ERROR: Use 4 digit octal (0777) not decimal permissions
#53: FILE: drivers/edac/ghes_edac.c:43:
+module_param_named(force_load, ghes_edac_force_load, bool, 0);

This last param is @perm: visibility in sysfs. Why not visible in sysfs?

Put this second sentence over the parameter definition.

Will do.

I followed in the footsteps of 'ghes_disable', which is also a kernel
boot option and uses 0.

Ok, ghes_disable comment says that using module_param() is easier.
ghes_edac is not a module but then __setup() is for "really core code".

Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst also talks about
core_param() but that's #ifndef MODULE. So module_param() it is.
