df36ac1bc2 pstore: Don't allow high traffic options on fragile devices
Some pstore backing devices use on board flash as persistent
storage. These have limited numbers of write cycles so it
is a poor idea to use them from high frequency operations.

b61edf8e7c pstore: Use zlib_inflateInit2 instead of zlib_inflateInit
Since zlib_deflateInit2() is used for specifying window bit during compression,

7de8fe2fa8 pstore: Adjust buffer size for compression for smaller registered buffers
When backends (ex: efivars) have smaller registered buffers, the
big_oops_buf is too big for them as number of repeated occurences
in the text captured will be less. What happens is that pstore takes
too big a bite from the dmesg log and then finds it cannot compress it
enough to meet the backend block size. Patch takes care of adjusting
the buffer size based on the registered buffer size. cmpr values have
been arrived after doing experiments with plain text for buffers of
size 1k - 4k (Smaller the buffer size repeated occurence will be less)
and with sample crash log for buffers ranging from 4k - 10k.

b0aad7a99c pstore: Add compression support to pstore
Add compression support to pstore which will help in capturing more data.
Initially, pstore will make a call to kmsg_dump with a bigger buffer
and will pass the size of bigger buffer to kmsg_dump and then compress
the data to registered buffer of registered size.

In case compression fails, pstore will capture the uncompressed
data by making a call again to kmsg_dump with registered_buffer
of registered size.

Pstore will indicate the data is compressed or not with a flag
in the write callback.

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "This is the powerpc changes for the 3.11 merge window.  In addition to
  the usual bug fixes and small updates, the main highlights are:

   - Support for transparent huge pages by Aneesh Kumar for 64-bit
     server processors.  This allows the use of 16M pages as transparent
     huge pages on kernels compiled with a 64K base page size.

   - Base VFIO support for KVM on power by Alexey Kardashevskiy

   - Wiring up of our nvram to the pstore infrastructure, including
     putting compressed oopses in there by Aruna Balakrishnaiah

   - Move, rework and improve our "EEH" (basically PCI error handling
     and recovery) infrastructure.  It is no longer specific to pseries
     but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no
     hypervisor) by Gavin Shan.

   - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it
     usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with
     hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded
     processors).

   - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael
     Ellerman.  This facility allows what is basically "userspace
     interrupts" for performance monitor events.

   - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs.  Signals bug fixes and HW
     breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.

  And more ...  I appologize in advance if I've failed to highlight
  something that somebody deemed worth it."

8e48b1a8ed pstore: Return unique error if backend registration excluded by kernel param
This is patch 1/3 of a patch set that avoids what misleadingly appears
to be a error during boot:

ERST: Could not register with persistent store

This message is displayed if the system has a valid ACPI ERST table and the
pstore.backend kernel parameter has been used to disable use of ERST by
pstore. But this same message is used for errors that preclude registration.

As part of fixing this, return a unique error status from pstore_register
if the pstore.backend kernel parameter selects a specific facility other
than the requesting facility and check for this condition before any others.
This allows the caller to distinquish this benign case from the other failure
cases.

Also, print an informational console message about which facility
successfully registered as the pstore backend. Since there are various
kernel parameters, config build options, and boot-time errors that can
influence which facility registers with pstore, it's useful to have a
positive indication.

fb0af3f2b1 pstore: Create a convenient mount point for pstore
Using /dev/pstore as a mount point for the pstore filesystem is slightly
awkward.  We don't normally mount filesystems in /dev/ and the /dev/pstore
file isn't created automatically by anything.  While this method will
still work, we can create a persistent mount point in sysfs.  This will
put pstore on par with things like cgroups and efivarfs.

9f244e9cfd pstore: Avoid deadlock in panic and emergency-restart path
[Issue]

When pstore is in panic and emergency-restart paths, it may be blocked
in those paths because it simply takes spin_lock.

This is an example scenario which pstore may hang up in a panic path:

 - cpuA grabs psinfo->buf_lock
 - cpuB panics and calls smp_send_stop
 - smp_send_stop sends IRQ to cpuA
 - after 1 second, cpuB gives up on cpuA and sends an NMI instead
 - cpuA is now in an NMI handler while still holding buf_lock
 - cpuB is deadlocked

This case may happen if a firmware has a bug and
cpuA is stuck talking with it more than one second.

Also, this is a similar scenario in an emergency-restart path:

 - cpuA grabs psinfo->buf_lock and stucks in a firmware
 - cpuB kicks emergency-restart via either sysrq-b or hangcheck timer.
   And then, cpuB is deadlocked by taking psinfo->buf_lock again.

[Solution]

This patch avoids the deadlocking issues in both panic and emergency_restart
paths by introducing a function, is_non_blocking_path(), to check if a cpu
can be blocked in current path.

With this patch, pstore is not blocked even if another cpu has
taken a spin_lock, in those paths by changing from spin_lock_irqsave
to spin_trylock_irqsave.

In addition, according to a comment of emergency_restart() in kernel/sys.c,
spin_lock shouldn't be taken in an emergency_restart path to avoid
deadlock. This patch fits the comment below.

<snip>
/**
 *      emergency_restart - reboot the system
 *
 *      Without shutting down any hardware or taking any locks
 *      reboot the system.  This is called when we know we are in
 *      trouble so this is our best effort to reboot.  This is
 *      safe to call in interrupt context.

f568f6ca81 pstore: remove __dev* attributes.
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit from the pstore filesystem.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

755d4fe465 efi_pstore: Add a sequence counter to a variable name
[Issue]

Currently, a variable name, which identifies each entry, consists of type, id and ctime.
But if multiple events happens in a short time, a second/third event may fail to log because
efi_pstore can't distinguish each event with current variable name.

[Solution]

A reasonable way to identify all events precisely is introducing a sequence counter to
the variable name.

The sequence counter has already supported in a pstore layer with "oopscount".
So, this patch adds it to a variable name.
Also, it is passed to read/erase callbacks of platform drivers in accordance with
the modification of the variable name.

  <before applying this patch>
 a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678
 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-12345678

  type:0
  id:1
  ctime:12345678

 If multiple events happen in a short time, efi_pstore can't distinguish them because
 variable names are same among them.

  <after applying this patch>

 it can be distinguishable by adding a sequence counter as follows.

 a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-1-12345678
 a variable name of Second event: dump-type0-1-2-12345678

  type:0
  id:1
  sequence counter: 1(first event), 2(second event)
  ctime:12345678

In case of a write callback executed in pstore_console_write(), "0" is added to
an argument of the write callback because it just logs all kernel messages and
doesn't need to care about multiple events.

a9efd39cd5 efi_pstore: Add ctime to argument of erase callback
[Issue]

Currently, a variable name, which is used to identify each log entry, consists of type,
id and ctime. But an erase callback does not use ctime.

If efi_pstore supported just one log, type and id were enough.
However, in case of supporting multiple logs, it doesn't work because
it can't distinguish each entry without ctime at erasing time.

 <Example>

 As you can see below, efi_pstore can't differentiate first event from second one without ctime.

 a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678
 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-23456789

  type:0
  id:1
  ctime:12345678, 23456789

[Solution]

This patch adds ctime to an argument of an erase callback.

It works across reboots because ctime of pstore means the date that the record was originally stored.
To do this, efi_pstore saves the ctime to variable name at writing time and passes it to pstore
at reading time.

record_size / console_size / ftrace_size can be 0 (this is how you disable
the feature), but rounddown_pow_of_two(0) is undefined. As suggested by
Kees Cook, use !is_power_of_2() as a condition to call
rounddown_pow_of_two and avoid its undefined behavior on the value 0. This
issue has been present since commit 1894a253 (ramoops: Move to

70a6f46d7b pstore: Fix NULL pointer dereference in console writes
Passing a NULL id causes a NULL pointer deference in writers such as
erst_writer and efi_pstore_write because they expect to update this id.
Pass a dummy id instead.

This avoids a cascade of oopses caused when the initial
pstore_console_write passes a null which in turn causes writes to the
console causing further oopses in subsequent pstore_console_write calls.

65f8c95e46 pstore/ftrace: Convert to its own enable/disable debugfs knob
With this patch we no longer reuse function tracer infrastructure, now
we register our own tracer back-end via a debugfs knob.

It's a bit more code, but that is the only downside. On the bright side we
have:

- Ability to make persistent_ram module removable (when needed, we can
  move ftrace_ops struct into a module). Note that persistent_ram is still
  not removable for other reasons, but with this patch it's just one
  thing less to worry about;

- Pstore part is more isolated from the generic function tracer. We tried
  it already by registering our own tracer in available_tracers, but that
  way we're loosing ability to see the traces while we record them to
  pstore. This solution is somewhere in the middle: we only register
  "internal ftracer" back-end, but not the "front-end";

- When there is only pstore tracing enabled, the kernel will only write
  to the pstore buffer, omitting function tracer buffer (which, of course,
  still can be enabled via 'echo function > current_tracer').

write_buf() should be marked as notrace, otherwise it is prone to

Though, yet the issue is never triggered in real life, because we run
inside the function tracer, where ftrace does its own recurse protection.

But it's still no good, plus soon we might switch to our own tracer ops,
and then the issue will be fatal. So, let's fix it.
