From 6fcd6baa90aeec9dcbe30786e15c125bf50503b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Piggin Date: Wed, 19 Jul 2017 16:59:11 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/powernv: Use kernel crash path for machine checks There are quite a few machine check exceptions that can be caused by kernel bugs. To make debugging easier, use the kernel crash path in cases of synchronous machine checks that occur in kernel mode, if that would not result in the machine going straight to panic or crash dump. There is a downside here that die()ing the process in kernel mode can still leave the system unstable. panic_on_oops will always force the system to fail-stop, so systems where that behaviour is important will still do the right thing. As a test, when triggering an i-side 0111b error (ifetch from foreign address) in kernel mode process context on POWER9, the kernel currently dies quickly like this: Severe Machine check interrupt [Not recovered] NIP [ffff000000000000]: 0xffff000000000000 Initiator: CPU Error type: Real address [Instruction fetch (foreign)] [ 127.426651616,0] OPAL: Reboot requested due to Platform error.
