Borislav Petkov 1462594bf2 x86, MCA: Finish mca_config conversion
mce_ser, mce_bios_cmci_threshold and mce_disabled are the last three
bools which need conversion. Move them to the mca_config struct and
adjust usage sites accordingly.

Chen Gong 55babd8f41 x86/mce: Add CMCI poll mode
On Intel systems corrected machine check interrupts (CMCI) may be sent to
multiple logical processors; possibly to all processors on the affected
socket (SDM Volume 3B "15.5.1 CMCI Local APIC Interface").  This means
that a persistent error (such as a stuck bit in ECC memory) may cause
a storm of interrupts that greatly hinders or prevents forward progress
(probably on many processors).

To solve this we keep track of the rate at which each processor sees
CMCI. If we exceed a threshold, we disable CMCI delivery and switch to
polling the machine check banks. If the storm subsides (none of the
affected processors see any more errors for a complete poll interval) we
re-enable CMCI.

[Tony: Added console messages when storm begins/ends and increased storm
threshold from 5 to 15 so we have a few more logged entries before we
disable interrupts and start dropping reports]

Kay Sievers 8a25a2fd12 cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class to a regular subsystem
This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem
and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are
implemented as subsystem interfaces now.

After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure
from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

Huang Ying 482908b49e ACPI, APEI, Use ERST for persistent storage of MCE
Traditionally, fatal MCE will cause Linux print error log to console
then reboot. Because MCE registers will preserve their content after
warm reboot, the hardware error can be logged to disk or network after
reboot. But system may fail to warm reboot, then you may lose the
hardware error log. ERST can help here. Through saving the hardware
error log into flash via ERST before go panic, the hardware error log
can be gotten from the flash after system boot successful again.

The fatal MCE processing procedure with ERST involved is as follow:

- Hardware detect error, MCE raised
- MCE read MCE registers, check error severity (fatal), prepare error record
- Write MCE error record into flash via ERST
- Go panic, then trigger system reboot
- System reboot, /sbin/mcelog run, it reads /dev/mcelog to check flash
  for error record of previous boot via ERST, and output and clear
  them if available
- /sbin/mcelog logs error records into disk or network

ERST only accepts CPER record format, but there is no pre-defined CPER
section can accommodate all information in struct mce, so a customized
section type is defined to hold struct mce inside a CPER record as an
error section.

Andi Kleen cebe182033 x86: mce: Move per bank data in a single datastructure
This addresses one of the leftover review comments.

Move the per bank data into a single structure. This avoids
several separate variables and also separate allocation of sysfs objects.

I didn't move the CMCI ownership information so far because
that would have needed some non trivial changes in the algorithms.

Andi Kleen ed7290d0ee x86, mce: implement new status bits
The x86 architecture recently added some new machine check status bits:
S(ignalled) and AR (Action-Required). Signalled allows to check
if a specific event caused an exception or was just logged through CMCI.
AR allows the kernel to decide if an event needs immediate action
or can be delayed or ignored.

Implement support for these new status bits. mce_severity() uses
the new bits to grade the machine check correctly and decide what
to do. The exception handler uses AR to decide to kill or not.
The S bit is used to separate events between the poll/CMCI handler
and the exception handler.

Classical UC always leads to panic. That was true before anyways
because the existing CPUs always passed a PCC with it.

Also corrects the rules whether to kill in user or kernel context
and how to handle missing RIPV.

The machine check handler largely uses the mce-severity grading
engine now instead of making its own decisions. This means the logic
is centralized in one place.  This is useful because it has to be
evaluated multiple times.

v2: Some rule fixes; Add AO events
Fix RIPV, RIPV|EIPV order (Ying Huang)
Fix UCNA with AR=1 message (Ying Huang)
Add comment about panicing in m_c_p.

Andi Kleen 817f32d02a x86, mce: add table driven machine check grading
The machine check grading (as in deciding what should be done for a given
register value) has to be done multiple times soon and it's also getting
more complicated.
So it makes sense to consolidate it into a single function. To get smaller
and more straight forward and possibly more extensible code I opted towards
a new table driven method. The various rules are put into a table
when is then executed by a very simple interpreter.

The grading engine is in a new file mce-severity.c. I also added a private
include file mce-internal.h, because mce.h is already a bit too cluttered.

This is dead code right now, but will be used in followon patches.
