[PATCH v6 0/2] Add L1 and L2 error detection for A53, A57 and A72

[Vijay Balakrishna]

Hello,

This is an attempt to revive [v5] series. I have attempted to address comments
and suggestions from Marc Zyngier since [v5]. Additionally, I have extended
support for A72 processors. Testing on a problematic A72 SoC has led to the
detection of Correctable Errors (CEs). I am eager to hear your suggestions and
feedback on this series.

Thanks,
Vijay

[v5] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210401110615.15326-1-s.hauer@pengutronix.de/#t

Changes since v5:
- rebase on v6.15-rc1
- the syndrome registers for CPU/L2 memory errors are cleared only upon
  detecting an error and an isb() after for synchronization (Marc)
- "edac-enabled" hunk moved to initial patch to avoid breaking virtual
  environments (Marc)
- to ensure compatibility across all three families, we are not reporting
  "L1 Dirty RAM," documented only in the A53 TRM
- above prompted changing default CPU L1 error meesage from "unknown"
  to "Unspecified" 
- capturing CPUID/WAY information in L2 memory error log (Marc)
- module license from "GPL v2" to "GPL" (checkpatch.pl warning)
- extend support for A72

Changes since v4:
- Rebase on v5.12-rc5

Changes since v3:
- Add edac-enabled property to make EDAC 3support optional

Changes since v2:
- drop usage of virtual dt node (Robh)
- use read_sysreg_s instead of open coded variant (James Morse)
- separate error retrieving from error reporting
- use smp_call_function_single rather than smp_call_function_single_async
- make driver single instance and register all 'cpu' hierarchy up front once

Changes since v1:
- Split dt-binding into separate patch
- Sort local function variables in reverse-xmas tree order
- drop unnecessary comparison and make variable bool

[PATCH 1/2] drivers/edac: Add L1 and L2 error detection for A53, A57 and A72

[Vijay Balakrishna]

From: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

The Cortex A53, A57 and A72 cores have error detection capabilities for
the L1/L2 Caches, this patch adds a driver for them. The selected errors
to detect/report have compatible bit assignments concerning CPU/L2 memory
error syndrome registers.

Unfortunately there is no robust way to inject errors into the caches,
so this driver doesn't contain any code to actually test it. It has
been tested though with code taken from an older version [1] of this
driver.  For reasons stated in thread [1], the error injection code is
not suitable for mainline, so it is removed from the driver.

I think the register writes and barriers should happen much closer to the
register reads, in read_errors(). Looking back at Marc's feedback on v5, I
think his most important piece of feedback was to only clear the register when
the valid bit is set to avoid accidentally clobbering an error that came in
between the register read and write.

By moving the register writes into report_errors() in this v6 series, there's
now a much larger window where new errors could occur between the register
read and the register write. Those new errors would be silently lost/ignored.
Reducing the window to the least number of cycles seems important for accurate
reporting.

Copilot correctly points out that we don't check np for NULL here. I think
of_match_node() handles that fine but we get fairly deep into the call stack
before it is caught. Let's go ahead and proactive check the return value.

More importantly, it pointed out that we don't call of_node_put(np) before
moving onto the next CPU. This would result in a refcount issue and will need
to be fixed.

Thanks!

Moving clear to report_errors() is wrong actually, it has be cleared 
from the CPU, from read_errors() which is a SMP call. Let me share new

[PATCH 2/2] dt-bindings: arm: cpus: Add edac-enabled property

[Vijay Balakrishna]

From: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

Some ARM Cortex CPUs like the A53, A57 and A72 have Error Detection And
Correction (EDAC) support on their L1 and L2 caches. This is implemented
in implementation defined registers, so usage of this functionality is
not safe in virtualized environments or when EL3 already uses these
registers. This patch adds a edac-enabled flag which can be explicitly
set when EDAC can be used.

Drop quotes - look at every other line.

<form letter>
Please use scripts/get_maintainers.pl to get a list of necessary people
and lists to CC. It might happen, that command when run on an older
kernel, gives you outdated entries. Therefore please be sure you base
your patches on recent Linux kernel.

Tools like b4 or scripts/get_maintainer.pl provide you proper list of
people, so fix your workflow. Tools might also fail if you work on some
ancient tree (don't, instead use mainline) or work on fork of kernel
(don't, instead use mainline). Just use b4 and everything should be
fine, although remember about `b4 prep --auto-to-cc` if you added new
patches to the patchset.

You missed at least devicetree list (maybe more), so this won't be
tested by automated tooling. Performing review on untested code might be
a waste of time.

Please kindly resend and include all necessary To/Cc entries.

No, it can't. This is not an architecture feature, and KVM will gladly
inject an UNDEF exception if the guest tries to use this.

Which is yet another reason why this whole exercise is futile.

Hi Marc - could you clarify why this is futile for baremetal or were you just
referring to virtualized environments?

This is futile in general. This sort of stuff only makes sense if you
can take useful action upon detecting an error, such as cache
scrubbing. Here, this is just telling you "bang, you're dead", without
any other recourse. You are not even sure you'll be able to actually
*run* this code. You cannot identify what the blast radius.

We have some other EDAC implementation for arm64 CPUs (XGene,
ThunderX), and they are all perfectly useless (I have them in my
collection of horrors). I know you are familiar enough with the RAS
architecture to appreciate the difference with a contemporary
implementation that would actually do the right thing.

Thanks,

	M.

We want to use it for monitoring purposes to let us know when a system needs to
be replaced. Knowing the number of Correctable Errors that a specific system is
encountering will help prioritize the replacement of that faulty system.

Also, if we can find some breadcrumbs of an Uncorrectable Error (UE) occurring
just before an important process crashes or before the kernel crashing, then we
can avoid expensive manual debugging and simply replace the system. Automation
can be implemented to dig through the kernel core dump contents to look for a
UE log message from this driver and a kernel engineer will never have to look
at the dump.

Yes, those are nice luxuries to have in the newer implementations but there are
still a lot of older systems in use and making do with what capabilities the
older hardware provides is still useful.

The drivers do report ECC errors being corrected, which indicates that
the HW itself is doing its job. Yes, I buy cheap memory from eBay.

Do we need actual drivers to output crap on the console? Probably not,
but I'm the wrong person to ask -- I only keep these machines alive to
remind me how things can go horribly wrong.

I don't think there is any harm in keeping this crap around. It
compiles, and if it breaks, I'll fix it. I'm not convinced we need any
more of it though, specially for CPUs that are over a decade old.

[v8 PATCH 0/2] Add L1 and L2 error detection for A53, A57 and A72

[Vijay Balakrishna]

Hello,

This is an attempt to revive [v5] series. I have attempted to address comments
and suggestions from Marc Zyngier since [v5]. Additionally, I have extended
support for A72 processors. Testing the driver on a problematic A72 SoC
has led to the detection of Correctable Errors (CEs). Below are logs captured
from the problematic SoC during various boot instances.

[  876.896022] EDAC DEVICE0: CE: cortex-arm64-edac instance: cpu2 block: L1 count: 1 'L1-D Data RAM correctable error(s) on CPU 2'

[ 3700.978086] EDAC DEVICE0: CE: cortex-arm64-edac instance: cpu2 block: L1 count: 1 'L1-D Data RAM correctable error(s) on CPU 2'

[  976.956158] EDAC DEVICE0: CE: cortex-arm64-edac instance: cpu2 block: L1 count: 1 'L1-D Data RAM correctable error(s) on CPU 2'

[ 1427.933606] EDAC DEVICE0: CE: cortex-arm64-edac instance: cpu2 block: L1 count: 1 'L1-D Data RAM correctable error(s) on CPU 2'

[  192.959911] EDAC DEVICE0: CE: cortex-arm64-edac instance: cpu2 block: L1 count: 1 'L1-D Data RAM correctable error(s) on CPU 2'

Our primary focus is on A72. We have a significant number of A72-based systems
in our fleet, and timely replacements via monitoring CEs will be instrumental
in managing them effectively.

I am eager to hear your suggestions and feedback on this series.

Thanks,
Vijay

Changes since v7: 
- v5 was based on the internal product kernel, identified following upon review
- correct format specifier to print CPUID/WAY
- removal of unused dynamic attributes for edac_device_alloc_ctl_info() 
- driver remove callback return type is void

Changes since v6:
- restore the change made in [v5] to clear CPU/L2 syndrome registers
  back to read_errors()
- upon detecting a valid error, clear syndrome registers immediately
  to avoid clobbering between the read and write (Marc)
- NULL return check for of_get_cpu_node() (Tyler)
- of_node_put() to avoid refcount issue (Tyler)
- quotes are dropped in yaml file (Krzysztof)

Changes since v5:
- rebase on v6.15-rc1
- the syndrome registers for CPU/L2 memory errors are cleared only upon
  detecting an error and an isb() after for synchronization (Marc)
- "edac-enabled" hunk moved to initial patch to avoid breaking virtual
  environments (Marc)
- to ensure compatibility across all three families, we are not reporting
  "L1 Dirty RAM," documented only in the A53 TRM
- above prompted changing default CPU L1 error meesage from "unknown"
  to "Unspecified"
- capturing CPUID/WAY information in L2 memory error log (Marc)
- module license from "GPL v2" to "GPL" (checkpatch.pl warning)
- extend support for A72

Changes since v4:
- Rebase on v5.12-rc5

Changes since v3:
- Add edac-enabled property to make EDAC 3support optional

Changes since v2:
- drop usage of virtual dt node (Robh)
- use read_sysreg_s instead of open coded variant (James Morse)
- separate error retrieving from error reporting
- use smp_call_function_single rather than smp_call_function_single_async
- make driver single instance and register all 'cpu' hierarchy up front once

Changes since v1:
- Split dt-binding into separate patch
- Sort local function variables in reverse-xmas tree order
- drop unnecessary comparison and make variable bool

Since we don't want this on newer cores, add an if/then schema to only 
allow this on A72 and whatever else you end up supporting.

[v7 PATCH 0/2] Add L1 and L2 error detection for A53, A57 and A72

[Vijay Balakrishna]

Hello,

This is an attempt to revive [v5] series. I have attempted to address comments
and suggestions from Marc Zyngier since [v5]. Additionally, I have extended
support for A72 processors. Testing on a problematic A72 SoC has led to the
detection of Correctable Errors (CEs). I am eager to hear your suggestions and
feedback on this series.

Thanks,
Vijay

[v5] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210401110615.15326-1-s.hauer@pengutronix.de/#t
[v6] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1744241785-20256-1-git-send-email-vijayb@linux.microsoft.com/

Changes since v6:
- restore the change made in [v5] to clear CPU/L2 syndrome registers
  back to read_errors() (Tyler)
- upon detecting a valid error, clear syndrome registers immediately
  to avoid clobbering between the read and write (Marc)
- NULL return check for of_get_cpu_node() (Tyler)
- of_node_put() to avoid refcount issue (Tyler)
- quotes are dropped in yaml file (Krzysztof)

Changes since v5:
- rebase on v6.15-rc1
- the syndrome registers for CPU/L2 memory errors are cleared only upon
  detecting an error and an isb() after for synchronization (Marc)
- "edac-enabled" hunk moved to initial patch to avoid breaking virtual
  environments (Marc)
- to ensure compatibility across all three families, we are not reporting
  "L1 Dirty RAM," documented only in the A53 TRM
- above prompted changing default CPU L1 error meesage from "unknown"
  to "Unspecified" 
- capturing CPUID/WAY information in L2 memory error log (Marc)
- module license from "GPL v2" to "GPL" (checkpatch.pl warning)
- extend support for A72

Changes since v4:
- Rebase on v5.12-rc5

Changes since v3:
- Add edac-enabled property to make EDAC 3support optional

Changes since v2:
- drop usage of virtual dt node (Robh)
- use read_sysreg_s instead of open coded variant (James Morse)
- separate error retrieving from error reporting
- use smp_call_function_single rather than smp_call_function_single_async
- make driver single instance and register all 'cpu' hierarchy up front once

Changes since v1:
- Split dt-binding into separate patch
- Sort local function variables in reverse-xmas tree order
- drop unnecessary comparison and make variable bool

[PATCH 2/2] dt-bindings: arm: cpus: Add edac-enabled property

[Vijay Balakrishna]

From: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

Some ARM Cortex CPUs like the A53, A57 and A72 have Error Detection And
Correction (EDAC) support on their L1 and L2 caches. This is implemented
in implementation defined registers, so usage of this functionality is
not safe in virtualized environments or when EL3 already uses these
registers. This patch adds a edac-enabled flag which can be explicitly
set when EDAC can be used.

[PATCH v5 0/2] Add L1 and L2 error detection for A53 and A57

[Sascha Hauer]

Hi,

Resending this mainly because Marc Zyngier and Mark Rutland raised
concerns about using implementation defined registers and I forgot to Cc
them with the last version. This version, like v4 already, should fix
these concerns. Looking forward to feedback.

Sascha

Changes since v4:
- Rebase on v5.12-rc5

Changes since v3:
- Add edac-enabled property to make EDAC support optional

Changes since v2:
- drop usage of virtual dt node (Robh)
- use read_sysreg_s instead of open coded variant (James Morse)

This last hunk must be part of the initial patch. Otherwise, it breaks
exactly as described in the commit message.

Thanks,

[PATCH iv4 0/2] Add L1 and L2 error detection for A53 and A57

[Sascha Hauer]

Hi All,

As mentioned by Marc and Mark usage of the implementation defined
registers is not generally safe, they can't be used in virtualized
environments or when EL3 already uses the same registers. This is
probably the last attempt to get this upstream, I added an additional
property to the CPU device nodes to be set explicitly when using these
registers is safe and desired.

Hum, this should be in patch 1/2 of course.
