Subject: [PATCH] x86, mce: Fix machine_check_poll() tests for which errors to log

There has been a lurking "TBD" in the machine check poll routine ever
since it was first split out from the machine check handler. The potential
issue is that the poll routine may have just begun a read from the STATUS
register in a machine check bank when the hardware logs an error in that
bank and signals a machine check. That race used to be pretty small back
when machine checks were broadcast, but the addition of local machine check
means that the poll code could continue running and clear the error from the
bank before the local machine check handler on another CPU gets around to
reading it.

Fix the code to be sure to only process errors that need to be processed
in the poll code, leaving other logged errors alone for the machine check
handler to find and process.

Fixes: b79109c3bbcf ("x86, mce: separate correct machine check poller and fatal exception handler")
Fixes: ed7290d0ee8f ("x86, mce: implement new status bits")

Can you please include a vendor check with this? MCi_STATUS[56] is not defined the same way on AMD systems.

Thanks,

Original code also looked at MCi_STATUS[56] without a vendor
check:

Was this OK because you don't set mca_cfg.ser?

If so, my new code will also skip out before getting to this test. But
should probably have a better comment. Something like:


/*
* Newer Intel systems that support software error
* recovery need to make some extra checks. Other
* CPUs should skip over uncorrected errors, but log
* everything else
*/
if (!mca_cfg.ser) {
if (m.status & MCI_STATUS_UC)
continue;
goto log_it;
}

Yes, you're right. Thanks for pointing that out.

error recovery reach the final few tests on whether to log.

x86/mce: Fix machine_check_poll() tests for error types

There has been a lurking "TBD" in the machine check poll routine ever
since it was first split out from the machine check handler. The
potential issue is that the poll routine may have just begun a read from
the STATUS register in a machine check bank when the hardware logs an
error in that bank and signals a machine check.

That race used to be pretty small back when machine checks were
broadcast, but the addition of local machine check means that the poll
code could continue running and clear the error from the bank before the
local machine check handler on another CPU gets around to reading it.

Fix the code to be sure to only process errors that need to be processed
in the poll code, leaving other logged errors alone for the machine
check handler to find and process.

[ bp: Massage a bit and flip the "== 0" check to the usual !(..) test. ]
