[v2,1/5] ACPI: add in a bad_madt_entry() function to eventually replace the macro

The existing BAD_MADT_ENTRY macro only checks that the size of the data
structure for an MADT subtable matches the length entry in the subtable.
This is, unfortunately, not reliable.  Nor, as it turns out, does it have
anything to do with what the length should be in any particular table.

We introduce the bad_madt_entry() function that uses a data set to
do some basic sanity checks on any given MADT subtable.  Over time, as
the spec changes, we should just be able to add entries to the data set
to reflect the changes.

What the data set captures is the allowed MADT subtable length for each
type of subtable, for each revision of the specification.  While there
is a revision number in the MADT that we should be able to use to figure
out the proper subtable length, it was not changed when subtables did.
And, while there is a major and minor revision in the FADT that could
also help, it was not always changed as the subtables changed either.
So, the data set captures for each published version of the ACPI spec
what the FADT revisions numbers should be, the corresponding MADT
revision number, and the subtable types and lengths that were defined
at that time.

The sanity checks done are:
	-- is the length non-zero?
	-- is the subtable type defined/allowed for the revision of
	   the FADT we're using?
	-- is the subtable type defined/allowed for the revision of
	   the MADT we're using?
	-- is the length entry what it should be for this revision
	   of the MADT and FADT?

These checks are more thorough than the previous macro provided, and
are now insulated from data structure size changes by ACPICA, which
have been the source of other patches in the past.

Now that the bad_madt_entry() function is available, we add code to
also invoke it before any subtable handlers are called to use the
info in the subtable.  Subsequent patches will remove the use of the
BAD_MADT_ENTRY macro which is now redundant as a result.  Any ACPI
functions that use acpi_parse_madt_entries() will always have all of
the MADT subtables checked from now on.

Can we make these a little more descriptive?

pr_err("Variable length MADT subtable type %d is wrong size: %d,
should be %d\n",
      entry->type, entry->length, len);

pr_err("MADT subtable type %d is wrong size: %d, should be %d\n",
      entry->type, entry->length, len);

Sure.  It's always a fine line between verbose and not enough info.

Not sure if we can have the above check here unconditionally.
Currently I can see there are 2 other users of acpi_parse_entries i.e.
PCC and NUMA. So may be it can be made conditional or return success for
non-MADT tables from bad_madt_entry ?

Other than that, you can add for ARM64 specific parts:

What?  The code did what it was supposed to do :-)?  Very cool.  Good to know.

I talked to Graeme a bit, too, and he had some good suggestions for clean up.
I'll post a v3 tomorrow.

I'll double check these uses.  I thought I had before, and based on what I
saw the check would be reasonable.  It never hurts to check again, though.

So, I went back and double checked the other users and they're looking at
the return value for acpi_parse_entries properly; adding in the check above
unconditionally should not cause any behavior change.  Further, despite the
name, acpi_parse_entries is only used to examine MADT subtables.  Granted,
we should probably make the name clearer at some point (too ambiguous as to
which entries are parsed right now).  Nonetheless, current usage seems to
be in order.

I disagree. I populated PCCT table on Juno to get this error for
PCCT(PCCT header gets interpreted as MADT header):
"
ACPI: undefined version for either FADT 5.1 or MADT 1
Error parsing PCC subspaces from PCCT
"
And here the stacktrace:
[<ffffffc000881e58>] bad_madt_entry+0x90/0x16c
[<ffffffc000882030>] acpi_table_parse_entries+0xfc/0x180
[<ffffffc000895af8>] pcc_init+0x70/0x148

 From the code inspection, I can see we have 3 users of 
acpi_parse_entries not just MADT but also PCC and NUMA/SRAT

Something like this solves this issue:
-              if (bad_madt_entry(table_header, entry))
+              if (!strncmp(id, ACPI_SIG_MADT, 4) &&
+                      bad_madt_entry(table_header, entry)


Or am I still missing something ?

Nope, I missed it.  Your fix above will solve the problem; I misunderstood
how acpi_parse_entries() was being used -- somehow I had it in my head that
only MADT was in use, and just not seeing that it's being used for several
other subtable traversals also.  Sorry about that, Sudeep.  My mistake.

I'll add this fix for a v4, but I'll wait for a few days to see if I get any
additional comments -- I haven't heard from any x86, ia64 or ACPI maintainers
yet.  OTOH, it's nice to know we've already found and fixed two sets of arm64
ACPI tables that are in error by using these patches, even with the flaws :).

+ * The Long, Sad, True Story of the MADT
+ *    or
+ * What does bad_madt_entry() actually do?
+ *
+ * Once upon a time in ACPI 1.0, there was the MADT.  It was a nice table,
+ * and it had two subtables all of its own.  But, it was also a pretty
+ * busy table, too, so over time the MADT gathered up other nice little
+ * subtables.  By the time ACPI 6.0 came around, the MADT had 16 of the
+ * little guys.
+ *
+ * Now, the MADT kept a little counter around for the subtables.  In fact,
+ * it kept two counters: one was the revision level, which was supposed to
+ * change when new subtables came to be, or as the ones already around grew
+ * up. The second counter was a type number, because the MADT needed a unique
+ * type for each subtable so he could tell them apart.  But, sometimes the
+ * MADT got so busy, he forgot to increment the revision level when he needed
+ * to.  Fortunately, the type counter kept increasing since that's the only
+ * way the MADT could find each little subtable.  It just wouldn't do to have
+ * every subtable called Number 6.
+ *
+ * In the next valley over, a castle full of wizards was watching the MADT
+ * and made a pact to keep their own counter.  Every time the MADT found a
+ * new subtable, or a subtable grew up, the wizards promised they would
+ * increment their counter.  Well, wizards being the forgetful sort, they
+ * didn't alway do that.  And, since there quite a lot of them, they
+ * couldn't always remember who was supposed to keep track of the MADT,
+ * especially if dinner was coming up soon.  Their counter was called the
+ * spec version.
+ *
+ * Every now and then, the MADT would gather up all its little subtables
+ * and take them in to the cobbler to get new boots.  This was a very, very
+ * meticulous cobbler, so every time they came, he wrote down all the boot
+ * sizes for all of the little subtables.  The cobbler would ask each subtable
+ * for its length, check that against his careful notes, and then go get the
+ * right boots.  Sometimes, a little subtable would change a bit, and their
+ * length did not match what the cobbler had written down.  If the wizards
+ * or the MADT had incremented their counters, the cobbler would breath a
+ * sigh of relief and write down the new length as the right one.  But, if
+ * none of the counters had changed, this would make the cobbler very, very
+ * mad.  He couldn't tell if he had the right size boots or not for the
+ * little subtable.  He would have to *guess* and this really bugged him.
+ *
+ * Well, when the cobbler got mad like this, he would go into hiding.  He
+ * would not make or sell any boots.  He would not go out at all.  Pretty
+ * soon, the coffee shop would have to close because the cobbler wasn't
+ * coming by twice a day any more.  Then the grocery store would have to
+ * close because he wouldn't eat much.  After a while, everyone would panic
+ * and have to move from the village and go live with all their relatives
+ * (usually the ones they didn't like very much).
+ *
+ * Eventually, the cobbler would work his way out of his bad mood, and
+ * open up his boot business again.  Then, everyone else could move back
+ * to the village and restart their lives, too.
+ *
+ * Fortunately, we have been able to collect up all the cobbler's careful
+ * notes (and we wrote them down below).  We'll have to keep checking these
+ * notes over time, too, just as the cobbler does.  But, in the meantime,
+ * we can avoid the panic and the reboot since we can make sure that each
+ * subtable is doing okay.  And that's what bad_madt_entry() does.
