The intent of this parameter is unclear and it sets up a
race between the reset of the system by ASR and crashdump.
The length of time between receipt of the pretimeout NMI
and the ASR reset of the system is fixed by hardware.
Turning the parameter off doesn't necessairly prevent a crash dump.
Also, having the ASR reset occur while the system is crash dumping
doesn't imply that the dump was hung given the short duration
between the NMI and the reset.
This parameter is not a substitute for having a architected watchdog
crashdump hang detection paridigm.

Modify prior change to not claim an NMI unless originated
from iLO to apply only to iLO5 and later going forward.
This restores hpwdt traditional behavior of calling panic
if the NMI is NMI_IO_CHECK, NMI_SERR, or NMI_UNKNOWN for
legacy hardware.

Follow Documentation/watchdog/convert_drivers_to_kernel_api.txt to
convert hpwdt from legacy watchdog driver to use the watchdog core.
Removed functions: hpwdt_open, hpwdt_release, hpwdt_write, hpwdt_ioctl
Removed data structures: hpwdt_fops, hpwdt_miscdev, watchdog_device
Modified functions: hpwdt_start, hpwdt_stop, hpwdt_ping, hpwdt_gettimeleft
Added functions: hpwdt_settimeout
Added structures: watchdog_device
Update Kconfig file to show that hpwdt now selects WATCHDOG_CORE.

If devm_reset_control_get_exclusive() fails, asm9260_wdt_probe()

so it is required to disable them or to move the code around.

Gen8 and prior Proliant systems supported the "CRU" interface
to firmware. This interfaces allows linux to "call back" into firmware
to source the cause of an NMI. This feature isn't fully utilized
as the actual source of the NMI isn't printed, the driver only
indicates that the source couldn't be determined when the call
fails.
With the advent of Gen9, iCRU replaces the CRU. The call back
feature is no longer available in firmware. To be compatible and
not attempt to call back into firmware on system not supporting CRU,
the SMBIOS table is consulted to determine if it is safe to
make the call back or not.
This results in about half of the driver code being devoted
to either making CRU calls or determing if it is safe to make
CRU calls. As noted, the driver isn't really using the results of
the CRU calls.
Furthermore, as a consequence of the Spectre security issue, the
BIOS/EFI calls are being wrapped into Spectre-disabling section.
Removing the call back in hpwdt_pretimeout assists in this effort.
As the CRU sourcing of the NMI isn't required for handling the
NMI and there are security concerns with making the call back, remove
the legacy (pre Gen9) NMI sourcing and the DMI code to determine if
the system had the CRU interface.

According to SBSA spec v3.1 section 5.3:
All registers are 32 bits in size and should be accessed using
32-bit reads and writes. If an access size other than 32 bits
is used then the results are IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.
[...]
The Generic Watchdog is little-endian
The current code uses readq to read the watchdog compare register
which does a 64-bit access. This fails on ThunderX2 which does not
implement 64-bit access to this register.
Fix this by using lo_hi_readq() that does two 32-bit reads.

Commit fd8aa9095a95 ("xen: optimize xenbus driver for multiple concurrent
xenstore accesses") optimized xenbus concurrent accesses but in doing so
broke UABI of /dev/xen/xenbus. Through /dev/xen/xenbus applications are in
charge of xenbus message exchange with the correct header and body. Now,
after the mentioned commit the replies received by application will no
longer have the header req_id echoed back as it was on request (see
specification below for reference), because that particular field is being
overwritten by kernel.
struct xsd_sockmsg
{
uint32_t type; /* XS_??? */
uint32_t req_id;/* Request identifier, echoed in daemon's response. */
uint32_t tx_id; /* Transaction id (0 if not related to a transaction). */
uint32_t len; /* Length of data following this. */
/* Generally followed by nul-terminated string(s). */
};
Before there was only one request at a time so req_id could simply be
forwarded back and forth. To allow simultaneous requests we need a
different req_id for each message thus kernel keeps a monotonic increasing
counter for this field and is written on every request irrespective of
userspace value.
Forwarding again the req_id on userspace requests is not a solution because
we would open the possibility of userspace-generated req_id colliding with
kernel ones. So this patch instead takes another route which is to
artificially keep user req_id while keeping the xenbus logic as is. We do
that by saving the original req_id before xs_send(), use the private kernel
counter as req_id and then once reply comes and was validated, we restore
back the original req_id.

In many cases, page tables can be accessed concurrently by either another
CPU (due to things like fast gup) or by the hardware page table walker
itself, which may set access/dirty bits. In such cases, it is important
to use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE when accessing page table entries so that
entries cannot be torn, merged or subject to apparent loss of coherence
due to compiler transformations.
Whilst there are some scenarios where this cannot happen (e.g. pinned
kernel mappings for the linear region), the overhead of using READ_ONCE
/WRITE_ONCE everywhere is minimal and makes the code an awful lot easier
to reason about. This patch consistently uses these macros in the arch
code, as well as explicitly namespacing pointers to page table entries
from the entries themselves by using adopting a 'p' suffix for the former
(as is sometimes used elsewhere in the kernel source).

We get a warning about some slow configurations in randconfig kernels:
mm/memory.c:83:2: error: #warning Unfortunate NUMA and NUMA Balancing config, growing page-frame for last_cpupid. [-Werror=cpp]
The warning is reasonable by itself, but gets in the way of randconfig
build testing, so I'm hiding it whenever CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is set.
The warning was added in 2013 in commit 75980e97dacc ("mm: fold
page->_last_nid into page->flags where possible").
