[ Upstream commit dced0b3e51dd2af3730efe14dd86b5e3173f0a65 ]
Avoid unnecessary crashes by claiming only NMIs that are due to
ERROR signalling or generated by the hpwdt hardware device.
The code does this, but only for iLO5.
The intent was to preserve legacy, Gen9 and earlier, semantics of
using hpwdt for error containtment as hardware/firmware would signal
fatal IO errors as an NMI with the expectation of hpwdt crashing
the system. Howerver, these IO errors should be received by hpwdt
as an NMI_IO_CHECK. So the test is overly permissive and should
not be limited to only ilo5.
We need to enable this protection for future iLOs not matching the
current PCI IDs.

On iLO5 going forward we want to return and not claim the NMI, if
the NMI was NOT gnerated by the iLO as a result of the watchdog
timing out or an explicit generate NMI.
The sense of the test in is inverted and prevents hpwdt_pretimeout
from claiming NMIs when it should.

Make whether or not the hpwdt watchdog delivers a pretimeout NMI
programable by the user.
The underlying iLO hardware is programmable as to whether or not
a pre-timeout NMI is delivered to the system before the iLO resets
the system. However, the iLO does not allow for programming the
length of time that NMI is delivered before the system is reset.
By watchdog API, in hpwdt_set_pretimeout a val == 0 disables the NMI.
When val != 0, hpwdt_set_pretimeout will enable the pretimeout NMI
provided the current timeout is greator than the HW specified
pretimeout length. Otherwise an error is returned.
In set_timeout, if the new timeout is <= an already established pretimeout,
the pretimeout is canceled. This matches the action watchdog_set_timeout
in the watchdog core would do if an hpwdt specific set_timeout
function wasn't specified.

The intent of this parameter is unclear and it sets up a
race between the reset of the system by ASR and crashdump.
The length of time between receipt of the pretimeout NMI
and the ASR reset of the system is fixed by hardware.
Turning the parameter off doesn't necessairly prevent a crash dump.
Also, having the ASR reset occur while the system is crash dumping
doesn't imply that the dump was hung given the short duration
between the NMI and the reset.
This parameter is not a substitute for having a architected watchdog
crashdump hang detection paridigm.

Gen8 and prior Proliant systems supported the "CRU" interface
to firmware. This interfaces allows linux to "call back" into firmware
to source the cause of an NMI. This feature isn't fully utilized
as the actual source of the NMI isn't printed, the driver only
indicates that the source couldn't be determined when the call
fails.
With the advent of Gen9, iCRU replaces the CRU. The call back
feature is no longer available in firmware. To be compatible and
not attempt to call back into firmware on system not supporting CRU,
the SMBIOS table is consulted to determine if it is safe to
make the call back or not.
This results in about half of the driver code being devoted
to either making CRU calls or determing if it is safe to make
CRU calls. As noted, the driver isn't really using the results of
the CRU calls.
Furthermore, as a consequence of the Spectre security issue, the
BIOS/EFI calls are being wrapped into Spectre-disabling section.
Removing the call back in hpwdt_pretimeout assists in this effort.
As the CRU sourcing of the NMI isn't required for handling the
NMI and there are security concerns with making the call back, remove
the legacy (pre Gen9) NMI sourcing and the DMI code to determine if
the system had the CRU interface.

This corrects:
commit cce78da76601 ("watchdog: hpwdt: Add check for UEFI bits")
The test on HPE SMBIOS extension type 219 record "Misc Features"
bits for UEFI support is incorrect. The definition of the Misc Features
bits in the HPE SMBIOS OEM Extensions specification (and related
firmware) was changed to use a different pair of bits to
represent UEFI supported. Howerver, a corresponding change
to Linux was missed.
Current code/platform work because the iCRU test is working.
But purpose of cce78da766 is to ensure correct functionality
on future systems where iCRU isn't supported.

Commit 1717f2096b54 ("panic, x86: Fix re-entrance problem due to panic

execution of panic(). It also saves registers for the crash dump on x86
by later commit 58c5661f2144 ("panic, x86: Allow CPUs to save registers
even if looping in NMI context").

nmi_panic(). Also, do some cleanups.

I just can't find any value in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR)
and MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(TEMP_MINOR) statements.
Either the device is enumerated and the driver already has a module
alias (e.g. PCI, USB etc.) that will get the right driver loaded
automatically.
Or the device is not enumerated and loading its driver will lead to
more or less intrusive hardware poking. Such hardware poking should be
limited to a bare minimum, so the user should really decide which
drivers should be tried and in what order. Trying them all in
arbitrary order can't do any good.
On top of that, loading that many drivers at once bloats the kernel
log. Also many drivers will stay loaded afterward, bloating the output
of "lsmod" and wasting memory. Some modules (cs5535_mfgpt which gets
loaded as a dependency) can't even be unloaded!
If defining char-major-10-130 is needed then it should happen in
user-space.

In discussions with Thomas Mingarelli about hpwdt, he explained
to me some issues they were some when using their virtual NMI
button to test the hpwdt driver.
It turns out the virtual NMI button used on HP's machines do no
send unknown NMIs but instead send IO_CHK NMIs. The way the
kernel code is written, the hpwdt driver can not register itself
against that type of NMI and therefore can not successfully
capture system information before panic'ing.
To solve this I created two new NMI queues to allow driver to
register against the IO_CHK and SERR NMIs. Or in the hpwdt all
three (if you include unknown NMIs too).
The change is straightforward and just mimics what the unknown
NMI does.

The NMI_UNKNOWN bucket only allows for one function to register
to it. The reason for that is because only functions which can
not determine if the NMI belongs to them or not should register
and would like to assume/swallow any NMI they see.
As a result it doesn't make sense to let more than one function
like this register. In fact, letting a second function fail
allows us to know that more than one function is going to
swallow NMIs on the current system. This is better than silently
being ignored.
Therefore hpwdt's priority mechanism doesn't make sense any
more. They will be always first on the NMI_UNKNOWN queue, if
they register.
Removing this parameter cleans up the code and simplifies things
for the next patch which changes how nmis are registered.

1. address has to be page aligned.
2. set_memory_x uses page size argument, not size.

watchdog: hpwdt: Changes to handle NX secure bit in 32bit path
commit e67d668e147c3b4fec638c9e0ace04319f5ceccd upstream.
This patch makes use of the set_memory_x() kernel API in order
to make necessary BIOS calls to source NMIs.

This patch makes use of the set_memory_x() kernel API in order
to make necessary BIOS calls to source NMIs.
This is needed for SLES11 SP2 and the latest upstream kernel as it appears
the NX Execute Disable has grown in its control.

nmi.c needs an #include <linux/mca.h>:
arch/x86/kernel/nmi.c: In function ‘unknown_nmi_error’:
arch/x86/kernel/nmi.c:286:6: error: ‘MCA_bus’ undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/x86/kernel/nmi.c:286:6: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
Another one is the hpwdt driver:
drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.c:507:9: error: ‘NMI_DONE’ undeclared (first use in this function)

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).

On platforms with no iCRU support don't print two, (possibly conflicting),
"NMI occurred" messages when the firmware is unable to source the NMI.
Please note that one of the enhancements to the v1.3.0 hpwdt driver is to panic and allow
KDUMP to succeed even on NMIs that are unknown to the platform firmware.

hpwdt_init_nmi_decoding() is called in hpwdt_init_one error handling,
thus remove the __devexit annotation of hpwdt_exit_nmi_decoding().
This patch fixes below warning:
WARNING: drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.o(.devinit.text+0x36f): Section mismatch in reference from the function hpwdt_init_one() to the function .devexit.text:hpwdt_exit_nmi_decoding()
The function __devinit hpwdt_init_one() references
a function __devexit hpwdt_exit_nmi_decoding().
This is often seen when error handling in the init function
uses functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __devexit annotation of
hpwdt_exit_nmi_decoding() so it may be used outside an exit section.
