"New support for clearing memory errors when a file is in DAX mode,
alongside with some other fixes and cleanups.
Previously it was only possible to clear these errors using a truncate
or hole-punch operation to trigger the filesystem to reallocate the
block, now, any page aligned write can opportunistically clear errors
as well.
This change spans x86/mm, nvdimm, and fs/dax, and has received the
appropriate sign-offs. Thanks to Jane for her work on this.

- Add support for clearing memory error via pwrite(2) on DAX
- Fix 'security overwrite' support in the presence of media errors
- Miscellaneous cleanups and fixes for nfit_test (nvdimm unit tests)"

The set_memory_uc() approach doesn't work well in all cases.
As Dan pointed out when "The VMM unmapped the bad page from
guest physical space and passed the machine check to the guest."
"The guest gets virtual #MC on an access to that page. When
the guest tries to do set_memory_uc() and instructs cpa_flush()
to do clean caches that results in taking another fault / exception
perhaps because the VMM unmapped the page from the guest."
Since the driver has special knowledge to handle NP or UC,
mark the poisoned page with NP and let driver handle it when
it comes down to repair.
Please refer to discussions here for more details.

Now since poisoned page is marked as not-present, in order to
avoid writing to a not-present page and trigger kernel Oops,
also fix pmem_do_write().

A rare kernel panic scenario can happen when the following conditions
are met due to an erratum on fast string copy instructions:
1) An uncorrected error.
2) That error must be in first cache line of a page.
3) Kernel must execute page_copy from the page immediately before that
page.
The fast string copy instructions ("REP; MOVS*") could consume an
uncorrectable memory error in the cache line _right after_ the desired
region to copy and raise an MCE.
Bit 0 of MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE can be cleared to disable fast string
copy and will avoid such spurious machine checks. However, that is less
preferable due to the permanent performance impact. Considering memory
poison is rare, it's desirable to keep fast string copy enabled until an
MCE is seen.
Intel has confirmed the following:
1. The CPU erratum of fast string copy only applies to Skylake,
Cascade Lake and Cooper Lake generations.
Directly return from the MCE handler:
2. Will result in complete execution of the "REP; MOVS*" with no data
loss or corruption.
3. Will not result in another MCE firing on the next poisoned cache line
due to "REP; MOVS*".
4. Will resume execution from a correct point in code.
5. Will result in the same instruction that triggered the MCE firing a
second MCE immediately for any other software recoverable data fetch
errors.
6. Is not safe without disabling the fast string copy, as the next fast
string copy of the same buffer on the same CPU would result in a PANIC
MCE.
This should mitigate the erratum completely with the only caveat that
the fast string copy is disabled on the affected hyper thread thus
performance degradation.
This is still better than the OS crashing on MCEs raised on an
irrelevant process due to "REP; MOVS*' accesses in a kernel context,
e.g., copy_page.
Tested:
Injected errors on 1st cache line of 8 anonymous pages of process
'proc1' and observed MCE consumption from 'proc2' with no panic
(directly returned).
Without the fix, the host panicked within a few minutes on a
random 'proc2' process due to kernel access from copy_page.

There are two cases for machine check recovery:
1) The machine check was triggered by ring3 (application) code.
This is the simpler case. The machine check handler simply queues
work to be executed on return to user. That code unmaps the page
from all users and arranges to send a SIGBUS to the task that
triggered the poison.
2) The machine check was triggered in kernel code that is covered by
an exception table entry. In this case the machine check handler
still queues a work entry to unmap the page, etc. but this will
not be called right away because the #MC handler returns to the
fix up code address in the exception table entry.
Problems occur if the kernel triggers another machine check before the
return to user processes the first queued work item.
Specifically, the work is queued using the ->mce_kill_me callback
structure in the task struct for the current thread. Attempting to queue
a second work item using this same callback results in a loop in the
linked list of work functions to call. So when the kernel does return to
user, it enters an infinite loop processing the same entry for ever.
There are some legitimate scenarios where the kernel may take a second
machine check before returning to the user.
1) Some code (e.g. futex) first tries a get_user() with page faults
disabled. If this fails, the code retries with page faults enabled
expecting that this will resolve the page fault.
2) Copy from user code retries a copy in byte-at-time mode to check
whether any additional bytes can be copied.
On the other side of the fence are some bad drivers that do not check
the return value from individual get_user() calls and may access
multiple user addresses without noticing that some/all calls have
failed.
Fix by adding a counter (current->mce_count) to keep track of repeated
machine checks before task_work() is called. First machine check saves
the address information and calls task_work_add(). Subsequent machine
checks before that task_work call back is executed check that the address
is in the same page as the first machine check (since the callback will
offline exactly one page).
Expected worst case is four machine checks before moving on (e.g. one
user access with page faults disabled, then a repeat to the same address
with page faults enabled ... repeat in copy tail bytes). Just in case
there is some code that loops forever enforce a limit of 10.

The exception table entries contain the instruction address, the fixup
address and the handler address. All addresses are relative. Storing the
handler address has a few downsides:
1) Most handlers need to be exported
2) Handlers can be defined everywhere and there is no overview about the
handler types
3) MCE needs to check the handler type to decide whether an in kernel #MC
can be recovered. The functionality of the handler itself is not in any
way special, but for these checks there need to be separate functions
which in the worst case have to be exported.
Some of these 'recoverable' exception fixups are pretty obscure and
just reuse some other handler to spare code. That obfuscates e.g. the
#MC safe copy functions. Cleaning that up would require more handlers
and exports
Rework the exception fixup mechanics by storing a fixup type number instead
of the handler address and invoke the proper handler for each fixup
type. Also teach the extable sort to leave the type field alone.
This makes most handlers static except for special cases like the MCE
MSR fixup and the BPF fixup. This allows to add more types for cleaning up
the obscure places without adding more handler code and exports.
There is a marginal code size reduction for a production config and it
removes _eight_ exported symbols.

When a fatal machine check results in a system reset, Linux does not
clear the error(s) from machine check bank(s) - hardware preserves the
machine check banks across a warm reset.
During initialization of the kernel after the reboot, Linux reads, logs,
and clears all machine check banks.
But there is a problem. In:
5de97c9f6d ("x86/mce: Factor out and deprecate the /dev/mcelog driver")
the call to mce_register_decode_chain() moved later in the boot
sequence. This means that /dev/mcelog doesn't see those early error
logs.
This was partially fixed by:
cd9c57cad3 ("x86/MCE: Dump MCE to dmesg if no consumers")
which made sure that the logs were not lost completely by printing
to the console. But parsing console logs is error prone. Users of
/dev/mcelog should expect to find any early errors logged to standard
places.
Add a new flag MCP_QUEUE_LOG to machine_check_poll() to be used in early
machine check initialization to indicate that any errors found should
just be queued to genpool. When mcheck_late_init() is called it will
call mce_schedule_work() to actually log and flush any errors queued in
the genpool.
