1eef128254 amd64_edac: Correct DIMM sizes
We were filling the csrow size with a wrong value. 16a528ee39 ("EDAC:
Fix csrow size reported in sysfs") tried to address the issue. It fixed
the report with the old API but not with the new one. Correct it for the
new API too.

311bd84247 EDAC: Fix kernel panic on module unloading
This patch fixes use-after-free and double-free bugs in
edac_mc_sysfs_exit(). mci_pdev has single reference and put_device()
calls mc_attr_release() which calls kfree(). The following
device_del() works with already released memory. An another kfree() in
edac_mc_sysfs_exit() releses the same memory again. Great.

9eb07a7fb8 edac: edac_mc_handle_error(): add an error_count parameter
In order to avoid loosing error events, it is desirable to group
error events together and generate a single trace for several identical
errors.

The trace API already allows reporting multiple errors. Change the
handle_error function to also allow that.

The changes at the drivers were made by this small script:

	$file .=$_ while (<>);
	$file =~ s/(edac_mc_handle_error)\s*\(([^\,]+)\,([^\,]+)\,/$1($2,$3, 1,/g;

6e84d359b2 edac_mc: Cleanup per-dimm_info debug messages
The edac_mc_alloc() routine allocates one dimm_info device for all
possible memories, including the non-filled ones. The debug messages
there are somewhat confusing. So, cleans them, by moving the code
that prints the memory location to edac_mc, and using it on both
edac_mc_sysfs and edac_mc.

Also, only dumps information when DIMM/ranks are actually
filled.

After this patch, a dimm-based memory controller will print the debug
info as:

[ 1011.380027] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_dump_csrow: csrow->csrow_idx = 0

(a rank-based memory controller would print, instead of "dimm?", "rank?"
 on the above debug info)

$f =~ s/(debugf[0-9]\s*\(\")\%s[\:\,\(\)]*\s*([^\"]*\s*[^\)]+)__func__\s*\,\s*/\1\2/g;
$f =~ s/(debugf[0-9]\s*\(\")\%s[\:\,\(\)]*\s*([^\"]*\s*[^\)]+),\s*__func__\s*\)/\1\2)/g;
$f =~ s/(debugf[0-9]\s*\(\"MC\:\s*)\%s[\:\,\(\)]*\s*([^\"]*\s*[^\)]+)__func__\s*\,\s*/\1\2/g;
$f =~ s/(debugf[0-9]\s*\(\"MC\:\s*)\%s[\:\,\(\)]*\s*([^\"]*\s*[^\)]+),\s*__func__\s*\)/\1\2)/g;

$f =~ s/\"MC\: \\n\"/"MC:\\n"/g;

print $f;

After running the script, manual cleanups were done to fix it the remaining
places.

While here, removed the __LINE__ on most places, as it doesn't actually give
useful info on most places.

de3910eb79 edac: change the mem allocation scheme to make Documentation/kobject.txt happy
Kernel kobjects have rigid rules: each container object should be
dynamically allocated, and can't be allocated into a single kmalloc.

EDAC never obeyed this rule: it has a single malloc function that
allocates all needed data into a single kzalloc.

As this is not accepted anymore, change the allocation schema of the
EDAC *_info structs to enforce this Kernel standard.

e39f4ea9b0 edac: Only expose csrows/channels on legacy API if they're populated
This patch actually fixes a bug with the legacy API, where, at the
same csrow, some channels may have different DIMMs. This can happen
on FB-DIMM/RAMBUS and modern Intel controllers.

This is the case, for example, of Nehalem machines:

$ ./edac-ctl --layout
       +-----------------------------------+
       |                mc0                |
       | channel0  | channel1  | channel2  |
-------+-----------------------------------+
slot2: |     0 MB  |     0 MB  |     0 MB  |
slot1: |  1024 MB  |     0 MB  |     0 MB  |
slot0: |  1024 MB  |  1024 MB  |  1024 MB  |
-------+-----------------------------------+

Before this patch, non-filled memories were shown. Now, only what's
filled is there:

grep . /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/csrow*/ch?*
/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/csrow0/ch0_ce_count:0

1997471069 edac: add a new per-dimm API and make the old per-virtual-rank API obsolete
The old EDAC API is broken. It only works fine for systems manufatured
before 2005 and for AMD 64. The reason is that it forces all memory
controller drivers to discover rank info.

Also, it doesn't allow grouping the several ranks into a DIMM.

So, what almost all modern drivers do is to create a fake virtual-rank
information, and use it to cheat the EDAC core to accept the driver.

While this works if the user has enough time to discover what DIMM slot
corresponds to each "virtual-rank" information, it prevents EDAC usage
for users with less available time. It also makes life hard for vendors
that may want to provide a table with their motherboards to the userspace
tool (edac-utils) as each driver has its own logic for the virtual
mapping.

So, the old API should be removed, in favor of a more flexible API that
allows newer drivers to not lie to the EDAC core.

7a623c0390 edac: rewrite the sysfs code to use struct device
The EDAC subsystem uses the old struct sysdev approach,
creating all nodes using the raw sysfs API. This is bad,
as the API is deprecated.

As we'll be changing the EDAC API, let's first port the existing
code to struct device.

There's one drawback on this patch: driver-specific sysfs
nodes, used by mpc85xx_edac, amd64_edac and i7core_edac
 won't be created anymore. While it would be possible to
also port the device-specific code, that would mix kobj with
struct device, with is not recommended. Also, it is easier and nicer
to move the code to the drivers, instead, as the core can get rid
of some complex logic that just emulates what the device_add()
and device_create_file() already does.

The next patches will convert the driver-specific code to use
the device-specific calls. Then, the remaining bits of the old
sysfs API will be removed.

NOTE: a per-MC bus is required, otherwise devices with more than
one memory controller will hit a bug like the one below:

This happens because the bus is not being properly initialized.
Instead of putting the memory sub-devices inside the memory controller,
it is putting everything under the same directory:

On a multi-memory controller system, the names "csrow%d" and "dimm%d"
should be under "mc%d", and not at the main hierarchy level.

So, we need to create a per-MC bus, in order to have its own namespace.

5926ff502f edac: Initialize the dimm label with the known information
While userspace doesn't fill the dimm labels, add there the dimm location,
as described by the used memory model. This could eventually match what
is described at the dmidecode, making easier for people to identify the
memory.

For example, on an Intel motherboard where the DMI table is reliable,
the first memory stick is described as:

Memory Device
	Array Handle: 0x0029
	Error Information Handle: Not Provided
	Total Width: 64 bits
	Data Width: 64 bits
	Size: 2048 MB
	Form Factor: DIMM
	Set: 1
	Locator: A1_DIMM0
	Bank Locator: A1_Node0_Channel0_Dimm0
	Type: <OUT OF SPEC>
	Type Detail: Synchronous
	Speed: 800 MHz
	Manufacturer: A1_Manufacturer0
	Serial Number: A1_SerNum0
	Asset Tag: A1_AssetTagNum0
	Part Number: A1_PartNum0

The memory named as "A1_DIMM0" is physically located at the first
memory controller (node 0), at channel 0, dimm slot 0.

After this patch, the memory label will be filled with:
	/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/csrow0/ch0_dimm_label:mc#0channel#0slot#0

And (after the new EDAC API patches) as:
	/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/dimm0/dimm_label:mc#0channel#0slot#0

So, even if the memory label is not initialized on userspace, an useful
information with the error location is filled there, expecially since
several systems/motherboards are provided with enough info to map from
channel/slot (or branch/channel/slot) into the DIMM label. So, letting the
EDAC core fill it by default is a good thing.

It should noticed that, as the label filling happens at the
edac_mc_alloc(), drivers can override it to better describe the memories
(and some actually do it).

a895bf8b1e edac: move nr_pages to dimm struct
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.

084a4fccef edac: move dimm properties to struct dimm_info
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.

a7d7d2e1a0 edac: Create a dimm struct and move the labels into it
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.

5e8e19bf6c EDAC: Correct scrub rate API
The original scrub rate API definition states that if scrub rate
accessors are not implemented, a negative value (-1) should be written
to the sysfs file (/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc<N>/sdram_scrub_rate,
where N is the memory controller number on the system). This is
counter-intuitive and awkward at the very least because, when setting
the scrub rate, userspace has to write to sysfs and then read it back to
check error status of the operation.

As Tony notes, best it would be to not have the sdram_scrub_rate in
sysfs if scrub rate support is not implemented. It is too late about
that and a bunch of drivers on a bunch of arches would need to be
changed and tested which is not a trivial task ATM.

Instead, settle for the next best thing of returning -ENODEV when
implementation is missing and -EINVAL when there was an error
encountered while setting the scrub rate.

accf74fff3 i7core_edac: don't use a freed mci struct
This is a nasty bug. Since kobject count will be reduced by zero by
edac_mc_del_mc(), and this triggers the kobj release method, the
mci memory will be freed automatically. So, all we have left is ctl_name,
as shown by enabling debug:

[   80.822186] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/edac_mc_sysfs.c, line at 1020: edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device()  remove_link

[   80.888043] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c, line at 1232: drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c: i7core_put_devices()

Also, kfree(mci) shouldn't happen at the kobj.release, as it happens
when edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device() is called, but the logic is:
	edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device(mci);
	edac_printk(KERN_INFO, EDAC_MC,
		"Removed device %d for %s %s: DEV %s\n", mci->mc_idx,
		mci->mod_name, mci->ctl_name, edac_dev_name(mci));
So, as the edac_printk() needs the mci struct, this generates an OOPS.

headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

52cf25d0ab Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type
Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing
