[PATCH v2 4/4] arm64: acpi: fix alignment fault in accessing ACPI

From: AKASHI Takahiro
Date: Tue Jun 19 2018 - 02:46:50 EST


This is a fix against the issue that crash dump kernel may hang up
during booting, which can happen on any ACPI-based system with "ACPI
Reclaim Memory."

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
Rebooting in 10 seconds..

(diagnosis)
* This fault is a data abort, alignment fault (ESR=0x96000021)
during reading out ACPI table.
* Initial ACPI tables are normally stored in system ram and marked as
"ACPI Reclaim memory" by the firmware.
* After the commit f56ab9a5b73c ("efi/arm: Don't mark ACPI reclaim
memory as MEMBLOCK_NOMAP"), those regions are differently handled
as they are "memblock-reserved", without NOMAP bit.
* So they are now excluded from device tree's "usable-memory-range"
which kexec-tools determines based on a current view of /proc/iomem.
* When crash dump kernel boots up, it tries to accesses ACPI tables by
mapping them with ioremap(), not ioremap_cache(), in acpi_os_ioremap()
since they are no longer part of mapped system ram.
* Given that ACPI accessor/helper functions are compiled in without
unaligned access support (ACPI_MISALIGNMENT_NOT_SUPPORTED),
any unaligned access to ACPI tables can cause a fatal panic.

With this patch, acpi_os_ioremap() always honors memory attribute
information provided by the firmware (EFI) and retaining cacheability
allows the kernel safe access to ACPI tables.
