Pull EDAC internal API changes from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"This changeset is the first part of a series of patches that fixes the
EDAC sybsystem. On this set, it changes the Kernel EDAC API in order
to properly represent the Intel i3/i5/i7, Xeon 3xxx/5xxx/7xxx, and
Intel E5-xxxx memory controllers.
The EDAC core used to assume that:
- the DRAM chip select pin is directly accessed by the memory
controller
- when multiple channels are used, they're all filled with the
same type of memory.
None of the above premises is true on Intel memory controllers since
2002, when RAMBUS and FB-DIMMs were introduced, and Advanced Memory
Buffer or by some similar technologies hides the direct access to the
DRAM pins.
So, the existing drivers for those chipsets had to lie to the EDAC
core, in general telling that just one channel is filled. That
produces some hard to understand error messages like:
EDAC MC0: CE row 3, channel 0, label "DIMM1": 1 Unknown error(s): memory read error on FATAL area : cpu=0 Err=0008:00c2 (ch=2), addr = 0xad1f73480 => socket=0, Channel=0(mask=2), rank=1
The location information there (row3 channel 0) is completely bogus:
it has no physical meaning, and are just some random values that the
driver uses to talk with the EDAC core. The error actually happened
at CPU socket 0, channel 0, slot 1, but this is not reported anywhere,
as the EDAC core doesn't know anything about the memory layout. So,
only advanced users that know how the EDAC driver works and that tests
their systems to see how DIMMs are mapped can actually benefit for
such error logs.
This patch series fixes the error report logic, in order to allow the
EDAC to expose the memory architecture used by them to the EDAC core.
So, as the EDAC core now understands how the memory is organized, it
can provide an useful report:
EDAC MC0: CE memory read error on DIMM1 (channel:0 slot:1 page:0x364b1b offset:0x600 grain:32 syndrome:0x0 - count:1 area:DRAM err_code:0001:0090 socket:0 channel_mask:1 rank:4)
The location of the DIMM where the error happened is reported by "MC0"
(cpu socket #0), at "channel:0 slot:1" location, and matches the
physical location of the DIMM.
There are two remaining issues not covered by this patch series:
- The EDAC sysfs API will still report bogus values. So,
userspace tools like edac-utils will still use the bogus data;
- Add a new tracepoint-based way to get the binary information
about the errors.
Those are on a second series of patches (also at -next), but will
probably miss the train for 3.5, due to the slow review process."

The number of pages is a dimm property. Move it to the dimm struct.
After this change, it is possible to add sysfs nodes for the DIMM's that
will properly represent the DIMM stick properties, including its size.
A TODO fix here is to properly represent dual-rank/quad-rank DIMMs when
the memory controller represents the memory via chip select rows.

Almost all edac drivers initialize csrow_info->first_page,
csrow_info->last_page and csrow_info->page_mask. Those vars are
used inside the EDAC core, in order to calculate the csrow affected
by an error, by using the routine edac_mc_find_csrow_by_page().
However, very few drivers actually use it:
e752x_edac.c
e7xxx_edac.c
i3000_edac.c
i82443bxgx_edac.c
i82860_edac.c
i82875p_edac.c
i82975x_edac.c
r82600_edac.c
There also a few other drivers that have their own calculus
formula internally using those vars.
All the others are just wasting time by initializing those
data.
While initializing data without using them won't cause any troubles, as
those information is stored at the wrong place (at csrows structure), it
is better to remove what is unused, in order to simplify the next patch.

On systems based on chip select rows, all channels need to use memories
with the same properties, otherwise the memories on channels A and B
won't be recognized.
However, such assumption is not true for all types of memory
controllers.
Controllers for FB-DIMM's don't have such requirements.
Also, modern Intel controllers seem to be capable of handling such
differences.
So, we need to get rid of storing the DIMM information into a per-csrow
data, storing it, instead at the right place.
The first step is to move grain, mtype, dtype and edac_mode to the
per-dimm struct.

The way a DIMM is currently represented implies that they're
linked into a per-csrow struct. However, some drivers don't see
csrows, as they're ridden behind some chip like the AMB's
on FBDIMM's, for example.
This forced drivers to fake^Wvirtualize a csrow struct, and to create
a mess under csrow/channel original's concept.
Move the DIMM labels into a per-DIMM struct, and add there
the real location of the socket, in terms of csrow/channel.
Latter patches will modify the location to properly represent the
memory architecture.
All other drivers will use a per-csrow type of location.
Some of those drivers will require a latter conversion, as
they also fake the csrows internally.
TODO: While this patch doesn't change the existing behavior, on
csrows-based memory controllers, a csrow/channel pair points to a memory
rank. There's a known bug at the EDAC core that allows having different
labels for the same DIMM, if it has more than one rank. A latter patch
is need to merge the several ranks for a DIMM into the same dimm_info
struct, in order to avoid having different labels for the same DIMM.
The edac_mc_alloc() will now contain a per-dimm initialization loop that
will be changed by latter patches in order to match other types of
memory architectures.

We can identify dram interleave mode from the Dram Rule register
rather than Dram Interleave list register.
In this context, the reg of INTERLEAVE_MODE(reg) contains the Dram
Interleave list register, we can't get interleave mode from the reg,
while the variable interleave_mode saves the the mode got from the
Dram Rule register, so we use the variable to replace
INTERLEAVE_MDDE(reg) here.

Several fields in struct cpuinfo_x86 were not defined for the
!SMP case, likely to save space. However, those fields still
have some meaning for UP, and keeping them allows some #ifdef
removal from other files. The additional size of the UP kernel
from this change is not significant enough to worry about
keeping up the distinction:
text data bss dec hex filename
4737168 506459 972040 6215667 5ed7f3 vmlinux.o.before
4737444 506459 972040 6215943 5ed907 vmlinux.o.after
for a difference of 276 bytes for an example UP config.
If someone wants those 276 bytes back badly then it should
be implemented in a cleaner way.

The edac driver for Sandy Bridge was found to be reporting "FPM"
for edac_mode, which clearly doesn't make sense. It was found that
sb_edac.c:get_dimm_config was reusing a variable for both mem_type
and edac_type, and thus was overwriting the value after setting
it correctly. This patch fixes that issue.

This driver is known to work on mine and Tony's test environments,
using software error injection, and a partial hardware/software
error injection tool.
There's no broader range test yet to double check if the error decoding
logic will actually point to the right DIMM, so use it with care.
More tests are required to be sure that the driver will work on all
different types of memory configurations.
If you're willing to risk using it, I suggest you to enable EDAC debugs
for your test machines, as the debug logs helps to track what's going
inside the driver.
Please feed me with bug reports, if you notice that the driver
is miss-behaving.
