PATCH v8 1/2 x86/sgx: Rename fallback labels in sgx_init()

It's hard to add new content to this function because it is time consuming to match fallback and its cause. Rename labels in a way that the name of error label refers to the site where failure happened. This way it is easier to keep on track what is going on.

PATCH v8 2/2 x86/sgx: Add an attribute for the amount of SGX memory in a NUMA node

The amount of SGX memory on the system is determined by the BIOS and it varies wildly between systems. It can be from dozens of MB's on desktops or VM's, up to many GB's on servers. Just like for regular memory, it is sometimes useful to know the amount of usable SGX memory in the system.

Add an attribute for the amount of SGX memory in bytes to each NUMA node. The path is /sys/devices/system/node/node[0-9]*/sgx/size. Calculate these values by summing up EPC section sizes for each node during the driver initalization.

v8:
* Fix a bug in sgx_numa_init(): node->dev should be only set after sysfe_create_group(). Otherwise, sysfs_remove_group() will issue a warning in sgx_numa_exit(), when sgx_create_group() is unsuccessful, because the group does not exist.

v7:
* Shorten memory_size to size. The prefix makes the name only longer but does not clarify things more than "size" would.
* Use device_attribute instead of kobj_attribute.
* Use named attribute group instead of creating raw kobject just for the "sgx" subdirectory.

v6:
* Initialize node->size to zero in sgx_setup_epc_section(), when the node is first accessed.

v5
* A new patch based on the discussion on

A huge hint, if a driver has to call a sysfs_* call, something is wrong.

Something is wrong here.

Why are you messing around with a kobject? This is a device, that you control, you can just set the default attribute group for it and then the driver core will add and remove the sysfs group at the proper time, in the proper way. Right now you are racing userspace and loosing.

Use the default group list, that is what it is there for.

I used sysfs_create_group() because node_devices is not owned by SGX code. It is managed in drivers/base/node.c, and also initialized before SGX.

Then that is broken, please do not use that device as your code does not "own" it. Or fix the logic to be initialized earlier.

To get a synchronous initialization, I'd need to add the attributes as part of this declaration:

static struct attribute *node_dev_attrs[] = {
&dev_attr_cpumap.attr,
&dev_attr_cpulist.attr,
&dev_attr_meminfo.attr,
&dev_attr_numastat.attr,
&dev_attr_distance.attr,
&dev_attr_vmstat.attr,
NULL
};
ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS(node_dev);

That guarantees that the attribute exists at the time when the node is created, e.g. in that sense this will fix the race with uevent code.

However, up until sgx_init() has been completed, the attribute will emit '0'.

If I change sgx_init() from device_initcall() to core_initcall() (i.e. one before postcore_initcall(), can I expect these to work:

* node_isset()
* node_set()
* num_possibles_nodes()
* numa_node_id()
* next_node_in()

?

Dave, perhaps you know this?

[*] register_node_type() and kobject_event_init() are postcore init
calls, so this would be non-racy.
