Always call i7core_[ur]dimm_check_mc_ecc_err
This fixes an error in function i7core_check_error
In commit ca9c90ba09ca3c9799319f46a56f397afbf617c2 which converts the
driver to use double buffering, there is a change in the logic. Before,
if mce_count was zero, it skipped over a couple of statements and
finished out with a call to the *check_mc_ecc_err function. The current
code checks to see if mce_count is 0 and then exits.
This change reverts the behavior back to the original where if there are
no errors to report, we skip to the end and call the *check_mc_ecc_err
function.
This fix allows the driver to work again on my Nehalem based blades
again.

i7core_edac: Use a more generic approach for probing PCI devices
Currently, only one PCI set of tables is allowed. This prevents using
the driver for other devices like Lynnfield, with have a different
set of PCI ID's.
Instead of using a static table assuming always 2 CPU sockets, allocate
space dynamically for Nehalem PCI devs.
This patch is part of a series of patches that changes i7core_edac to
allow more than 2 sockets and to properly report one memory controller
per socket.

i7core_edac: Probe on Xeons eariler
On the Xeon 55XX series cpus the pci deives are not exposed via acpi so
we much explicitly probe them to make the usable as a Linux PCI device.
This moves the detection of this state to before pci_register_driver is
called. Its present position was not working on my systems, the driver
would complain about not finding a specific device.
This patch allows the driver to load on my systems.

Instead of assuming that the entire machine has either registered or
unregistered memories, do it at CPU socket based.
While here, fix a bug at i7core_mce_output_error(), where the we're
using m->cpu directly as if it would represent a socket. Instead, the
proper socket_id is given by cpu_data[m->cpu].phys_proc_id.
i7core_edac: Use Device 3 function 2 to report errors with RDIMM's
Nehalem and upper chipsets provide an special device that has corrected memory
error counters detected with registered dimms. This device is only seen if
there are registered memories plugged.
After this patch, on a machine fully equiped with RDIMM's, it will use the
Device 3 function 2 to count corrected errors instead on relying at mcelog.
For unregistered DIMMs, it will keep the old behavior, counting errors
via mcelog.

There were two stupid error injection bugs introduced by wrong
cut-and-paste: one at socket store, and another at the error inject
register. The last one were causing the code to not work at all.
While here, adds debug messages to allow seeing what registers are being
set while sending error injection.
EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c, line at 1660: MC: drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c: i7core_init()
EDAC i7core: Device not found: dev 00:00.0 PCI ID 8086:2c41
i7core_edac: probe of 0000:00:14.0 failed with error -22
This is due to the fact that, on Xeon35xx (and i7core), device 00.0 has
PCI ID 8086:2c40.
m->bank is not related to the memory bank but, instead, to the MCA Error
register bank. Fix it accordingly. While here, improves the comments for
Nehalem bank.
A later fix is needed, in order to get bank/rank information from MCA
error log.
This code changes the detection procedure of i7core_edac. Instead of
directly probing for MC registers, it probes for another register found
on Nehalem. If found, it tries to pick the first MC PCI BUS. This should
work fine with Xeon 35xx, but, on Xeon 55xx, this is at bus 254 and 255
that are not properly detected by the non-legacy PCI methods.
The new detection code scans specifically at buses 254 and 255 for the
Xeon 55xx devices.
This code has not tested yet. After working, a change at the code will
be needed, since the i7core is not yet ready for working with 2 sets of
MC.
pci: Add a probing code that seeks for an specific bus
This patch adds a probing code that seeks for an specific pci bus. It
still needs testing, but it is hoped that this will help to identify the
memory controller with Xeon 55xx series.
The public Intel Xeon 5500 volume 2 datasheet describes, on page 53,
session 2.6.7 a register that can lock/unlock Memory Controller the
configuration register, called MC_CFG_CONTROL.
Adds support for it in the hope that software error injection would
work. With my tests with Xeon 35xx, there's still something missing.
With a program that does sequencial bit writes at dev 0.0, sometimes, it
produces error injection, after unblocking the MC_CFG_CONTROL (and,
sometimes, it just locks my testing machine).
I'll try later to discover by trial and error what's the register that
solves this issue on Xeon 35xx.
Adds a glue code to allow i7core to work with mcelog. With the glue,
i7core registers itself on edac_mce. At mce, when an error is detected,
it calls all registered drivers (in this case, i7core), for EDAC error
handling.
TODO: It currently just prints the MCE error log using about the same
format as mce panic messages. The error message should be enhanced
with mcelog userspace info and converted into the proper EDAC format,
to feed the EDAC error counts.
i7core_edac: Add a memory check routine, based on device 3 function 4
This function appears only on Xeon 5500 datasheet. Yet, testing with a
Xeon 3503 showed that this is also implemented on other Nehalem
processors.
At the first read, MC_TEST_ERR_RCV1 and MC_TEST_ERR_RCV0 can contain any
value. Modify CE error logic to update the error count only after the
second read.
An alternative approach would be to do a write at rcv0 and rcv1
registers, but it seemed better to keep they untouched, since BIOS might
eventually assume that they are exclusive for their usage.
Now, it will try to register on all supported Memory Controller
functions.
It should be noticed that dev3, function 2 is present only on chips with
Registered DIMM's, according to the datasheet. So, the driver doesn't
return -ENODEV is all functions but this one were successfully
registered and enabled:
i7core_edac: Add an EDAC memory controller driver for Nehalem chipsets
This driver is meant to support i7 core/i7core extreme desktop
processors and Xeon 35xx/55xx series with integrated memory controller.
It is likely that it can be expanded in the future to work with other
processor series based at the same Memory Controller design.
kgdb: don't needlessly skip PAGE_USER test for Fsl booke
The bypassing of this test is a leftover from 2.4 vintage
kernels, and is no longer appropriate, or even used by KGDB.
Currently KGDB uses probe_kernel_write() for all access to
memory via the KGDB core, so it can simply be deleted.
This fixes CVE-2010-1446.

xfs: add a shrinker to background inode reclaim
On low memory boxes or those with highmem, kernel can OOM before the
background reclaims inodes via xfssyncd. Add a shrinker to run inode
reclaim so that it inode reclaim is expedited when memory is low.
This is more complex than it needs to be because the VM folk don't
want a context added to the shrinker infrastructure. Hence we need
to add a global list of XFS mount structures so the shrinker can
traverse them.
