x86/cpu/vmware: Do not trace vmware_sched_clock()

2018-11-09T20:39:14+00:00

When running function tracing on a Linux guest running on VMware Workstation, the guest would crash. This is due to tracing of the sched_clock internal call of the VMware vmware_sched_clock(), which causes an infinite recursion within the tracing code (clock calls must not be traced). Make vmware_sched_clock() not traced by ftrace.

acpi/nfit, x86/mce: Validate a MCE's address before using it

2018-11-06T18:13:26+00:00

The NFIT machine check handler uses the physical address from the mce structure, and compares it against information in the ACPI NFIT table to determine whether that location lies on an NVDIMM. The mce->addr field however may not always be valid, and this is indicated by the MCI_STATUS_ADDRV bit in the status field. Export mce_usable_address() which already performs validation for the address, and use it in the NFIT handler.

acpi/nfit, x86/mce: Handle only uncorrectable machine checks

2018-11-06T18:13:10+00:00

The MCE handler for nfit devices is called for memory errors on a Non-Volatile DIMM and adds the error location to a 'badblocks' list. This list is used by the various NVDIMM drivers to avoid consuming known poison locations during IO. The MCE handler gets called for both corrected and uncorrectable errors. Until now, both kinds of errors have been added to the badblocks list. However, corrected memory errors indicate that the problem has already been fixed by hardware, and the resulting interrupt is merely a notification to Linux. As far as future accesses to that location are concerned, it is perfectly fine to use, and thus doesn't need to be included in the above badblocks list. Add a check in the nfit MCE handler to filter out corrected mce events, and only process uncorrectable errors.

x86/hyper-v: Enable PIT shutdown quirk

2018-11-04T10:04:46+00:00

Hyper-V emulation of the PIT has a quirk such that the normal PIT shutdown path doesn't work, because clearing the counter register restarts the timer. Disable the counter clearing on PIT shutdown.
