SEA exceptions are often caused by an uncorrected hardware
error, and are handled when data abort and instruction abort
exception classes have specific values for their Fault Status
Code.
When SEA occurs, before killing the process, go through
the handlers registered in the notification list.
Update fault_info[] with specific SEA faults so that the
new SEA handler is used.

I still don't understand why you need notifiers for this. You register
precisely one hook in the series.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough in my previous review, but please expand the
acronym for strings and comments.

I didn't see a response to my last comment on the previous series so I 
just left it in for this series.
The notifier usage is consistent with the GHES code for SCI errors which 
are also only used a single
time in the code. If you think making the call directly is a better 
option I will remove the notifiers.

The 'SEA' in this user-string doesn't add anything. Now that these use do_sea()
instead of do_bad(), when they are printed won't it be:
> Synchronous External Abort: level 3 SEA (translation table walk) (...) at ....

Yes, please. It's easy to add the notifier infrastructure back if/when it's
actually needed and I don't see why the low-level fault dispatching needs to
be consistent with the GHES/SCI code.

Half of the other do_*() functions in this file read the signo and code from the
fault_info table.

addr here was read from FAR_EL1, but for some of the classes of exception you
have listed below this register isn't updated with the faulting address.

The ARM-ARM version 'k' in D1.10.5 "Summary of registers on faults taken to an
Exception level that is using Aarch64" has:
> The architecture permits that the FAR_ELx is UNKNOWN for Synchronous External

This is a problem if we get 'synchronous external abort' or 'synchronous parity
error' while a user space process was running.

Good point, yes they will:

I can just remove SEA here then.

It looks like this would just cause an incorrect address to be printed 
in the above pr_err.
Unless I'm missing something, I don't see arm64_notify_die or anything 
that gets called from
there using the info.si_addr variable.

What do you suggest I do here? The firmware should be reporting the 
physical and virtual
address information if it is available in the HEST entry that the kernel 
will parse. So should I
just remove the use of the addr parameter in do_sea?

Thanks,
Tyler

I may be misreading something here...

This patch has:
>	info.si_addr  = (void __user *)addr;
>	arm64_notify_die("", regs, &info, esr);

From arch/arm64/kernel/traps.c:arm64_notify_die():
>	if (user_mode(regs)) {
>		current->thread.fault_address = 0;
>		current->thread.fault_code = err;

>	}

So if the SEA interrupted userspace, we put maybe-unknown addr into
force_sig_info() to deliver a signal to user space. User-space then gets a copy
of the info struct containing the maybe-unknown addr.

I think this is an existing bug, but if we are separating the synchronous
external aborts from the generic do_bad handler, we should probably check the
FnV bit. (I think we should still print it out)

Its not just firmware that may trigger this, other SoCs may use it for parity or
ECC errors, and they may not always have a valid address in FAR_EL1.

I think we should check the FnV bit in the esr variable and set info.si_addr to
0 if the addr we have isn't valid:
'For some implementations, the value of si_addr may be inaccurate.' [0]


Thanks,

James

Hello James,

Okay, that makes sense, we don't want userspace to be notified with an 
incorrect address.
I will add the check to verify it's valid. Which bit in the ESR is the 
FnV bit? I'm not finding
the bit breakdown of the ISS that shows it.

Thanks,
Tyler

The bits in ISS vary depending on the EC, so a little digging is required.
"D7.2.27 ESR_ELx, Exception Syndrome Register (ELx)" lists the EC values, from
there 'Instruction Abort' and 'Data Abort' both list FnV as bit 10. Version 'k'
of the ARM-ARM has this on pages D7-1953 to D7-1956.

James

Got it! I'll add the check for this in my next patchset.
