commit 0405a5cec3406f19e69da07c8111a6bf1088ac29 upstream.
For persistent RAM outside of main memory, the memory may have limitations
on supported accesses. For internal RAM on highbank platform exclusive
accesses are not supported and will hang the system. So atomic_cmpxchg
cannot be used. This commit uses spinlock protection for buffer size and
start updates on ioremapped regions instead.

commit b0aa931fb84431394d995472d0af2a6c2b61064d upstream.
ramoops_get_next_prz get the prz according the paramters. If it get a
uninitialized prz, access its members by following persistent_ram_old_size(prz)
will cause a NULL pointer crash.
Ex: if ftrace_size is 0, fprz will be NULL.
Fix it by return NULL in advance.

commit 027bc8b08242c59e19356b4b2c189f2d849ab660 upstream.
On some ARMs the memory can be mapped pgprot_noncached() and still
be working for atomic operations. As pointed out by Colin Cross
<ccross@android.com>, in some cases you do want to use
pgprot_noncached() if the SoC supports it to see a debug printk
just before a write hanging the system.
On ARMs, the atomic operations on strongly ordered memory are
implementation defined. So let's provide an optional kernel parameter
for configuring pgprot_noncached(), and use pgprot_writecombine() by
default.

commit 7ae9cb81933515dc7db1aa3c47ef7653717e3090 upstream.
Currently trying to use pstore on at least ARMs can hang as we're
mapping the peristent RAM with pgprot_noncached().
On ARMs, pgprot_noncached() will actually make the memory strongly
ordered, and as the atomic operations pstore uses are implementation
defined for strongly ordered memory, they may not work. So basically
atomic operations have undefined behavior on ARM for device or strongly
ordered memory types.
Let's fix the issue by using write-combine variants for mappings. This
corresponds to normal, non-cacheable memory on ARM. For many other
architectures, this change does not change the mapping type as by
default we have:
#define pgprot_writecombine pgprot_noncached
The reason why pgprot_noncached() was originaly used for pstore
is because Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> had observed lost
debug prints right before a device hanging write operation on some
systems. For the platforms supporting pgprot_noncached(), we can
add a an optional configuration option to support that. But let's
get pstore working first before adding new features.

commit d4bf205da618bbd0b038e404d646f14e76915718 upstream.

Using /dev/pstore as a mount point for the pstore filesystem is slightly
awkward. We don't normally mount filesystems in /dev/ and the /dev/pstore
file isn't created automatically by anything. While this method will
still work, we can create a persistent mount point in sysfs. This will
put pstore on par with things like cgroups and efivarfs.

[Issue]
When pstore is in panic and emergency-restart paths, it may be blocked
in those paths because it simply takes spin_lock.
This is an example scenario which pstore may hang up in a panic path:
- cpuA grabs psinfo->buf_lock
- cpuB panics and calls smp_send_stop
- smp_send_stop sends IRQ to cpuA
- after 1 second, cpuB gives up on cpuA and sends an NMI instead
- cpuA is now in an NMI handler while still holding buf_lock
- cpuB is deadlocked
This case may happen if a firmware has a bug and
cpuA is stuck talking with it more than one second.
Also, this is a similar scenario in an emergency-restart path:
- cpuA grabs psinfo->buf_lock and stucks in a firmware
- cpuB kicks emergency-restart via either sysrq-b or hangcheck timer.
And then, cpuB is deadlocked by taking psinfo->buf_lock again.
[Solution]
This patch avoids the deadlocking issues in both panic and emergency_restart
paths by introducing a function, is_non_blocking_path(), to check if a cpu
can be blocked in current path.
With this patch, pstore is not blocked even if another cpu has
taken a spin_lock, in those paths by changing from spin_lock_irqsave
to spin_trylock_irqsave.
In addition, according to a comment of emergency_restart() in kernel/sys.c,
spin_lock shouldn't be taken in an emergency_restart path to avoid
deadlock. This patch fits the comment below.
<snip>
/**
* emergency_restart - reboot the system
*
* Without shutting down any hardware or taking any locks
* reboot the system. This is called when we know we are in
* trouble so this is our best effort to reboot. This is
* safe to call in interrupt context.

[Issue]
Currently, a variable name, which identifies each entry, consists of type, id and ctime.
But if multiple events happens in a short time, a second/third event may fail to log because
efi_pstore can't distinguish each event with current variable name.
[Solution]
A reasonable way to identify all events precisely is introducing a sequence counter to
the variable name.
The sequence counter has already supported in a pstore layer with "oopscount".
So, this patch adds it to a variable name.
Also, it is passed to read/erase callbacks of platform drivers in accordance with
the modification of the variable name.
<before applying this patch>
a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678
a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-12345678
type:0
id:1
ctime:12345678
If multiple events happen in a short time, efi_pstore can't distinguish them because
variable names are same among them.
<after applying this patch>
it can be distinguishable by adding a sequence counter as follows.
a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-1-12345678
a variable name of Second event: dump-type0-1-2-12345678
type:0
id:1
sequence counter: 1(first event), 2(second event)
ctime:12345678
In case of a write callback executed in pstore_console_write(), "0" is added to
an argument of the write callback because it just logs all kernel messages and
doesn't need to care about multiple events.

[Issue]
Currently, a variable name, which is used to identify each log entry, consists of type,
id and ctime. But an erase callback does not use ctime.
If efi_pstore supported just one log, type and id were enough.
However, in case of supporting multiple logs, it doesn't work because
it can't distinguish each entry without ctime at erasing time.
<Example>
As you can see below, efi_pstore can't differentiate first event from second one without ctime.
a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678
a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-23456789
type:0
id:1
ctime:12345678, 23456789
[Solution]
This patch adds ctime to an argument of an erase callback.
It works across reboots because ctime of pstore means the date that the record was originally stored.
To do this, efi_pstore saves the ctime to variable name at writing time and passes it to pstore
at reading time.

This avoids a cascade of oopses caused when the initial

With this patch we no longer reuse function tracer infrastructure, now
we register our own tracer back-end via a debugfs knob.
It's a bit more code, but that is the only downside. On the bright side we
have:
- Ability to make persistent_ram module removable (when needed, we can
move ftrace_ops struct into a module). Note that persistent_ram is still
not removable for other reasons, but with this patch it's just one
thing less to worry about;
- Pstore part is more isolated from the generic function tracer. We tried
it already by registering our own tracer in available_tracers, but that
way we're loosing ability to see the traces while we record them to
pstore. This solution is somewhere in the middle: we only register
"internal ftracer" back-end, but not the "front-end";
- When there is only pstore tracing enabled, the kernel will only write
to the pstore buffer, omitting function tracer buffer (which, of course,
still can be enabled via 'echo function > current_tracer').

write_buf() should be marked as notrace, otherwise it is prone to
recursion.
Though, yet the issue is never triggered in real life, because we run
inside the function tracer, where ftrace does its own recurse protection.
But it's still no good, plus soon we might switch to our own tracer ops,
and then the issue will be fatal. So, let's fix it.

We can dereference 'cxt->cprz' if console and dump logging are disabled
(which is unlikely, but still possible to do). This patch fixes the issue
by changing the code so that we don't dereference przs at all, we can
just calculate bufsize from console_size and record_size values.
Plus, while at it, the patch improves the buffer size calculation.
After Kay's printk rework, we know the optimal buffer size for console
logging -- it is LOG_LINE_MAX (defined privately in printk.c). Previously,
if only console logging was enabled, we would allocate unnecessary large
buffer in pstore, while we only need LOG_LINE_MAX. (Pstore console logging
is still capable of handling buffers > LOG_LINE_MAX, it will just do
multiple calls to psinfo->write).
Note that I don't export the constant, since we will do even a better
thing soon: we will switch console logging to a new write_buf API, which
will eliminate the need for the additional buffer; and so we won't need
the constant.

Decoding the binary trace w/ a different kernel might be troublesome
since we convert addresses to symbols. For kernels with minimal changes,
the mappings would probably match, but it's not guaranteed at all.
(But still we could convert the addresses by hand, since we do print
raw addresses.)
If we use modules, the symbols could be loaded at different addresses
from the previously booted kernel, and so this would also fail, but
there's nothing we can do about it.
Also, the binary data format that pstore/ram is using in its ringbuffer
may change between the kernels, so here we too must ensure that we're
running the same kernel.
So, there are two questions really:
1. How to compute the unique kernel tag;
2. Where to store it.
In this patch we're using LINUX_VERSION_CODE, just as hibernation
(suspend-to-disk) does. This way we are protecting from the kernel
version mismatch, making sure that we're running the same kernel
version and patch level. We could use CRC of a symbol table (as
suggested by Tony Luck), but for now let's not be that strict.
And as for storing, we are using a small trick here. Instead of
allocating a dedicated buffer for the tag (i.e. another prz), or
hacking ram_core routines to "reserve" some control data in the
buffer, we are just encoding the tag into the buffer signature
(and XOR'ing it with the actual signature value, so that buffers
not needing a tag can just pass zero, which will result into the
plain old PRZ signature).

Headers should really include all the needed prototypes, types, defines
etc. to be self-contained. This is a long-standing issue, but apparently
the new tracing code unearthed it (SMP=n is also a prerequisite):
In file included from fs/pstore/internal.h:4:0,
from fs/pstore/ftrace.c:21:
include/linux/pstore.h:43:15: error: field ‘read_mutex’ has incomplete type
While at it, I also added the following:
linux/types.h -> size_t, phys_addr_t, uXX and friends
linux/spinlock.h -> spinlock_t
linux/errno.h -> Exxxx
linux/time.h -> struct timespec (struct passed by value)
struct module and rs_control forward declaration (passed via pointers).

The ftrace log size is configurable via ramoops.ftrace_size
module option, and the log itself is available via

Don't use pstore.buf directly, instead convert the code to write_buf callback
which passes a pointer to a buffer as an argument.

With this support kernel can save function call chain log into a
persistent ram buffer that can be decoded and dumped after reboot
through pstore filesystem. It can be used to determine what function
was last called before a reset or panic.
We store the log in a binary format and then decode it at read time.
p.s.
Mostly the code comes from trace_persistent.c driver found in the
Android git tree, written by Colin Cross <ccross@android.com>
(according to sign-off history). I reworked the driver a little bit,
and ported it to pstore.

For function tracing we need to stop using pstore.buf directly, since
in a tracing callback we can't use spinlocks, and thus we can't safely
use the global buffer.
With write_buf callback, backends no longer need to access pstore.buf
directly, and thus we can pass any buffers (e.g. allocated on stack).

This is now pretty straightforward: instead of using bool, just pass
an integer. For backwards compatibility ramoops.ecc=1 means 16 bytes
ECC (using 1 byte for ECC isn't much of use anyway).

The struct members were never used anywhere outside of
persistent_ram_init_ecc(), so there's actually no need for them
to be in the struct.
If we ever want to make polynomial or symbol size configurable,
it would make more sense to just pass initialized rs_decoder
to the persistent_ram init functions.

- Instead of exploiting unsigned overflows (which doesn't work for all
sizes), use straightforward checking for ECC total size not exceeding
initial buffer size;
- Printing overflowed buffer_size is not informative. Instead, print
ecc_size and buffer_size;
- No need for buffer_size argument in persistent_ram_init_ecc(),
we can address prz->buffer_size directly.

We will implement variable-sized ECC buffers soon, so post_init routine
might fail much more likely, so we'd better check for its errors.
To make error handling simple, modify persistent_ram_free() to it be safe
at all times.

persistent_ram_new() returns ERR_PTR() value on errors, so during
freeing of the przs we should check for both NULL and IS_ERR() entries,
otherwise bad things will happen.
