[v7,1/5] x86/mce: Add wrapper for struct mce to export vendor specific info

Commit Message

Avadhut Naik Oct. 22, 2024, 7:36 p.m. UTC

Currently, exporting new additional machine check error information
involves adding new fields for the same at the end of the struct mce.
This additional information can then be consumed through mcelog or
tracepoint.

However, as new MSRs are being added (and will be added in the future)
by CPU vendors on their newer CPUs with additional machine check error
information to be exported, the size of struct mce will balloon on some
CPUs, unnecessarily, since those fields are vendor-specific. Moreover,
different CPU vendors may export the additional information in varying
sizes.

The problem particularly intensifies since struct mce is exposed to
userspace as part of UAPI. It's bloating through vendor-specific data
should be avoided to limit the information being sent out to userspace.

Add a new structure mce_hw_err to wrap the existing struct mce. The same
will prevent its ballooning since vendor-specifc data, if any, can now be
exported through a union within the wrapper structure and through
__dynamic_array in mce_record tracepoint.

Furthermore, new internal kernel fields can be added to the wrapper
struct without impacting the user space API.

Changes in v2:
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-edac/[e-mail]/
[2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-edac/[e-mail]/

1. Drop dependencies on sets [1] and [2] above and rebase on top of
tip/master.

Changes in v3:
1. Move wrapper changes required in mce_read_aux() and mce_no_way_out()
to this patch from the second patch.
2. Fix SoB chain to properly reflect the patch path.

Changes in v4:
1. Rebase on of tip/master to avoid merge conflicts.
2. Resolve kernel test robot's warning on the use of memset() in
do_machine_check().

Changes in v5:
1. No changes except rebasing on top of tip/master.

Changes in v6:
1. Rebase on top of tip/master.
2. Introduce to_mce_hw_err macro to eliminate changes required in notifier
chain callback functions, especially callback functions of EDAC drivers.
3. Change third parameter of __mc_scan_banks() to a pointer to the new
wrapper structure and make the required changes accordingly.

Changes in v7:
1. Rebase on top of tip/master.
2. Fix initialization of struct mce_hw_err *final in do_machine_check().

Unknown word [vendor-specifc] in commit message.

Please introduce a spellchecker into your patch creation workflow.

Also:

The tip-tree preferred ordering of variable declarations at the
beginning of a function is reverse fir tree order::

	struct long_struct_name *descriptive_name;
	unsigned long foo, bar;
	unsigned int tmp;
	int ret;

The above is faster to parse than the reverse ordering::

	int ret;
	unsigned int tmp;
	unsigned long foo, bar;
	struct long_struct_name *descriptive_name;

And even more so than random ordering::

	unsigned long foo, bar;
	int ret;
	struct long_struct_name *descriptive_name;
	unsigned int tmp;
