crash: split crash dumping code out from kexec_core.c Currently, KEXEC_CORE select CRASH_CORE automatically because crash codes need be built in to avoid compiling error when building kexec code even though the crash dumping functionality is not enabled. E.g -------------------- CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC=y CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE=y --------------------- After splitting out crashkernel reservation code and vmcoreinfo exporting code, there's only crash related code left in kernel/crash_core.c. Now move crash related codes from kexec_core.c to crash_core.c and only build it in when CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y. And also wrap up crash codes inside CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP ifdeffery scope, or replace inappropriate CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE ifdef with CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP ifdef in generic kernel files. With these changes, crash_core codes are abstracted from kexec codes and can be disabled at all if only kexec reboot feature is wanted.

crash: split vmcoreinfo exporting code out from crash_core.c Now move the relevant codes into separate files: kernel/crash_reserve.c, include/linux/crash_reserve.h. And add config item CRASH_RESERVE to control its enabling. And also update the old ifdeffery of CONFIG_CRASH_CORE, including of <linux/crash_core.h> and config item dependency on CRASH_CORE accordingly. And also do renaming as follows: - arch/xxx/kernel/{crash_core.c => vmcore_info.c} because they are only related to vmcoreinfo exporting on x86, arm64, riscv. And also Remove config item CRASH_CORE, and rely on CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE to decide if build in crash_core.c.

kexec: split crashkernel reservation code out from crash_core.c Patch series "Split crash out from kexec and clean up related config items", v3. Motivation: ============= Previously, LKP reported a building error. When investigating, it can't be resolved reasonablly with the present messy kdump config items. https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202312182200.Ka7MzifQ-lkp@intel.com/ The kdump (crash dumping) related config items could causes confusions: Firstly, CRASH_CORE enables codes including - crashkernel reservation; - elfcorehdr updating; - vmcoreinfo exporting; - crash hotplug handling; Now fadump of powerpc, kcore dynamic debugging and kdump all selects CRASH_CORE, while fadump - fadump needs crashkernel parsing, vmcoreinfo exporting, and accessing global variable 'elfcorehdr_addr'; - kcore only needs vmcoreinfo exporting; - kdump needs all of the current kernel/crash_core.c. So only enabling PROC_CORE or FA_DUMP will enable CRASH_CORE, this mislead people that we enable crash dumping, actual it's not. Secondly, It's not reasonable to allow KEXEC_CORE select CRASH_CORE. Because KEXEC_CORE enables codes which allocate control pages, copy kexec/kdump segments, and prepare for switching. These codes are shared by both kexec reboot and kdump. We could want kexec reboot, but disable kdump. In that case, CRASH_CORE should not be selected. -------------------- CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC=y CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE=y --------------------- Thirdly, It's not reasonable to allow CRASH_DUMP select KEXEC_CORE. That could make KEXEC_CORE, CRASH_DUMP are enabled independently from KEXEC or KEXEC_FILE. However, w/o KEXEC or KEXEC_FILE, the KEXEC_CORE code built in doesn't make any sense because no kernel loading or switching will happen to utilize the KEXEC_CORE code. --------------------- CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y --------------------- In this case, what is worse, on arch sh and arm, KEXEC relies on MMU, while CRASH_DUMP can still be enabled when !MMU, then compiling error is seen as the lkp test robot reported in above link. ------arch/sh/Kconfig------ config ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC def_bool MMU config ARCH_SUPPORTS_CRASH_DUMP def_bool BROKEN_ON_SMP --------------------------- Changes: =========== 1, split out crash_reserve.c from crash_core.c; 2, split out vmcore_infoc. from crash_core.c; 3, move crash related codes in kexec_core.c into crash_core.c; 4, remove dependency of FA_DUMP on CRASH_DUMP; 5, clean up kdump related config items; 6, wrap up crash codes in crash related ifdefs on all 8 arch-es which support crash dumping, except of ppc; Achievement: =========== With above changes, I can rearrange the config item logic as below (the right item depends on or is selected by the left item): PROC_KCORE -----------> VMCORE_INFO |----------> VMCORE_INFO FA_DUMP----| |----------> CRASH_RESERVE ---->VMCORE_INFO / |---->CRASH_RESERVE KEXEC --| /| |--> KEXEC_CORE--> CRASH_DUMP-->/-|---->PROC_VMCORE KEXEC_FILE --| \ | \---->CRASH_HOTPLUG KEXEC --| |--> KEXEC_CORE (for kexec reboot only) KEXEC_FILE --| Test ======== On all 8 architectures, including x86_64, arm64, s390x, sh, arm, mips, riscv, loongarch, I did below three cases of config item setting and building all passed. Take configs on x86_64 as exampmle here: (1) Both CONFIG_KEXEC and KEXEC_FILE is unset, then all kexec/kdump items are unset automatically: # Kexec and crash features # CONFIG_KEXEC is not set # CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is not set # end of Kexec and crash features (2) set CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE and 'make olddefconfig': --------------- # Kexec and crash features CONFIG_CRASH_RESERVE=y CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO=y CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y CONFIG_CRASH_HOTPLUG=y CONFIG_CRASH_MAX_MEMORY_RANGES=8192 # end of Kexec and crash features --------------- (3) unset CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP in case 2 and execute 'make olddefconfig': ------------------------ # Kexec and crash features CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE=y # end of Kexec and crash features ------------------------ Note: For ppc, it needs investigation to make clear how to split out crash code in arch folder. Hope Hari and Pingfan can help have a look, see if it's doable. Now, I make it either have both kexec and crash enabled, or disable both of them altogether. This patch (of 14): Both kdump and fa_dump of ppc rely on crashkernel reservation. Move the relevant codes into separate files: crash_reserve.c, include/linux/crash_reserve.h. And also add config item CRASH_RESERVE to control its enabling of the codes. And update config items which has relationship with crashkernel reservation. And also change ifdeffery from CONFIG_CRASH_CORE to CONFIG_CRASH_RESERVE when those scopes are only crashkernel reservation related. And also rename arch/XXX/include/asm/{crash_core.h => crash_reserve.h} on arm64, x86 and risc-v because those architectures' crash_core.h is only related to crashkernel reservation.

kexec_file: add kexec_file flag to control debug printing Patch series "kexec_file: print out debugging message if required", v4. Currently, specifying '-d' on kexec command will print a lot of debugging informationabout kexec/kdump loading with kexec_load interface. However, kexec_file_load prints nothing even though '-d' is specified. It's very inconvenient to debug or analyze the kexec/kdump loading when something wrong happened with kexec/kdump itself or develper want to check the kexec/kdump loading. In this patchset, a kexec_file flag is KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG added and checked in code. If it's passed in, debugging message of kexec_file code will be printed out and can be seen from console and dmesg. Otherwise, the debugging message is printed like beofre when pr_debug() is taken. Note: **** ===== 1) The code in kexec-tools utility also need be changed to support passing KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG to kernel when 'kexec -s -d' is specified. The patch link is here: ========= [PATCH] kexec_file: add kexec_file flag to support debug printing http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2023-November/028505.html 2) s390 also has kexec_file code, while I am not sure what debugging information is necessary. So leave it to s390 developer. Test: **** ==== Testing was done in v1 on x86_64 and arm64. For v4, tested on x86_64 again. And on x86_64, the printed messages look like below: -------------------------------------------------------------- kexec measurement buffer for the loaded kernel at 0x207fffe000.

The debugging printing for kexec_load interface is made in user space utility kexec-tools. Whereas, with kexec_file_load interface, 'kexec -s -d' print nothing. Because kexec_file code is mostly implemented in kernel space, and the debugging printing functionality is missed. It's not convenient when debugging kexec/kdump loading and jumping with kexec_file_load interface. Now add KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG to kexec_file flag to control the debugging message printing. And add global variable kexec_file_dbg_print and macro kexec_dprintk() to facilitate the printing. This is a preparation, later kexec_dprintk() will be used to replace the existing pr_debug(). Once 'kexec -s -d' is specified, it will print out kexec/kdump loading information. If '-d' is not specified, it regresses to pr_debug().

crash_core: move crashk_*res definition into crash_core.c Both crashk_res and crashk_low_res are used to mark the reserved crashkernel regions in iomem_resource tree. And later the generic crashkernel resrvation will be added into crash_core.c. So move crashk_res and crashk_low_res definition into crash_core.c to avoid compiling error if CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=on while CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE is unset. Meanwhile include <asm/crash_core.h> in <linux/crash_core.h> if generic reservation is needed. In that case, <asm/crash_core.h> need be added by ARCH. In asm/crash_core.h, ARCH can provide its own macro definitions to override macros in <linux/crash_core.h> if needed. Wrap the including into CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GENERIC_CRASHKERNEL_RESERVATION ifdeffery scope to avoid compiling error in other ARCH-es which don't take the generic reservation way yet.

crash: hotplug support for kexec_load() The hotplug support for kexec_load() requires changes to the userspace kexec-tools and a little extra help from the kernel. Given a kdump capture kernel loaded via kexec_load(), and a subsequent hotplug event, the crash hotplug handler finds the elfcorehdr and rewrites it to reflect the hotplug change. That is the desired outcome, however, at kernel panic time, the purgatory integrity check fails (because the elfcorehdr changed), and the capture kernel does not boot and no vmcore is generated. Therefore, the userspace kexec-tools/kexec must indicate to the kernel that the elfcorehdr can be modified (because the kexec excluded the elfcorehdr from the digest, and sized the elfcorehdr memory buffer appropriately). To facilitate hotplug support with kexec_load(): - a new kexec flag KEXEC_UPATE_ELFCOREHDR indicates that it is safe for the kernel to modify the kexec_load()'d elfcorehdr - the /sys/kernel/crash_elfcorehdr_size node communicates the preferred size of the elfcorehdr memory buffer - The sysfs crash_hotplug nodes (ie. /sys/devices/system/[cpu|memory]/crash_hotplug) dynamically take into account kexec_file_load() vs kexec_load() and KEXEC_UPDATE_ELFCOREHDR. This is critical so that the udev rule processing of crash_hotplug is all that is needed to determine if the userspace unload-then-load of the kdump image is to be skipped, or not. The proposed udev rule change looks like: # The kernel updates the crash elfcorehdr for CPU and memory changes SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end" SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end" The table below indicates the behavior of kexec_load()'d kdump image updates (with the new udev crash_hotplug rule in place): Kernel |Kexec -------+-----+---- Old |Old |New | a | a -------+-----+---- New | a | b -------+-----+---- where kexec 'old' and 'new' delineate kexec-tools has the needed modifications for the crash hotplug feature, and kernel 'old' and 'new' delineate the kernel supports this crash hotplug feature. Behavior 'a' indicates the unload-then-reload of the entire kdump image. For the kexec 'old' column, the unload-then-reload occurs due to the missing flag KEXEC_UPDATE_ELFCOREHDR. An 'old' kernel (with 'new' kexec) does not present the crash_hotplug sysfs node, which leads to the unload-then-reload of the kdump image. Behavior 'b' indicates the desired optimized behavior of the kernel directly modifying the elfcorehdr and avoiding the unload-then-reload of the kdump image. If the udev rule is not updated with crash_hotplug node check, then no matter any combination of kernel or kexec is new or old, the kdump image continues to be unload-then-reload on hotplug changes. To fully support crash hotplug feature, there needs to be a rollout of kernel, kexec-tools and udev rule changes. However, the order of the rollout of these pieces does not matter; kexec_load()'d kdump images still function for hotplug as-is.

crash: memory and CPU hotplug sysfs attributes Introduce the crash_hotplug attribute for memory and CPUs for use by userspace. These attributes directly facilitate the udev rule for managing userspace re-loading of the crash kernel upon hot un/plug changes. For memory, expose the crash_hotplug attribute to the /sys/devices/system/memory directory. For example: # udevadm info --attribute-walk /sys/devices/system/memory/memory81 looking at device '/devices/system/memory/memory81': KERNEL=="memory81" SUBSYSTEM=="memory" DRIVER=="" ATTR{online}=="1" ATTR{phys_device}=="0" ATTR{phys_index}=="00000051" ATTR{removable}=="1" ATTR{state}=="online" ATTR{valid_zones}=="Movable" looking at parent device '/devices/system/memory': KERNELS=="memory" SUBSYSTEMS=="" DRIVERS=="" ATTRS{auto_online_blocks}=="offline" ATTRS{block_size_bytes}=="8000000" ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1" For CPUs, expose the crash_hotplug attribute to the /sys/devices/system/cpu directory. For example: # udevadm info --attribute-walk /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0 looking at device '/devices/system/cpu/cpu0': KERNEL=="cpu0" SUBSYSTEM=="cpu" DRIVER=="processor" ATTR{crash_notes}=="277c38600" ATTR{crash_notes_size}=="368" ATTR{online}=="1" looking at parent device '/devices/system/cpu': KERNELS=="cpu" SUBSYSTEMS=="" DRIVERS=="" ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1" ATTRS{isolated}=="" ATTRS{kernel_max}=="8191" ATTRS{nohz_full}==" (null)" ATTRS{offline}=="4-7" ATTRS{online}=="0-3" ATTRS{possible}=="0-7" ATTRS{present}=="0-3" With these sysfs attributes in place, it is possible to efficiently instruct the udev rule to skip crash kernel reloading for kernels configured with crash hotplug support. For example, the following is the proposed udev rule change for RHEL system 98-kexec.rules (as the first lines of the rule file): # The kernel updates the crash elfcorehdr for CPU and memory changes SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end" SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end" When examined in the context of 98-kexec.rules, the above rules test if crash_hotplug is set, and if so, the userspace initiated unload-then-reload of the crash kernel is skipped. CPU and memory checks are separated in accordance with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU and CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG kernel config options. If an architecture supports, for example, memory hotplug but not CPU hotplug, then the /sys/devices/system/memory/crash_hotplug attribute file is present, but the /sys/devices/system/cpu/crash_hotplug attribute file will NOT be present. Thus the udev rule skips userspace processing of memory hot un/plug events, but the udev rule will evaluate false for CPU events, thus allowing userspace to process CPU hot un/plug events (ie the unload-then-reload of the kdump capture kernel).

crash: add generic infrastructure for crash hotplug support To support crash hotplug, a mechanism is needed to update the crash elfcorehdr upon CPU or memory changes (eg. hot un/plug or off/ onlining). The crash elfcorehdr describes the CPUs and memory to be written into the vmcore. To track CPU changes, callbacks are registered with the cpuhp mechanism via cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls(CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN). The crash hotplug elfcorehdr update has no explicit ordering requirement (relative to other cpuhp states), so meets the criteria for utilizing CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN. CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN is a dynamic state and avoids the need to introduce a new state for crash hotplug. Also, CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN is the last state in the PREPARE group, just prior to the STARTING group, which is very close to the CPU starting up in a plug/online situation, or stopping in a unplug/ offline situation. This minimizes the window of time during an actual plug/online or unplug/offline situation in which the elfcorehdr would be inaccurate. Note that for a CPU being unplugged or offlined, the CPU will still be present in the list of CPUs generated by crash_prepare_elf64_headers(). However, there is no need to explicitly omit the CPU, see justification in 'crash: change crash_prepare_elf64_headers() to for_each_possible_cpu()'. To track memory changes, a notifier is registered to capture the memblock MEM_ONLINE and MEM_OFFLINE events via register_memory_notifier(). The CPU callbacks and memory notifiers invoke crash_handle_hotplug_event() which performs needed tasks and then dispatches the event to the architecture specific arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event() to update the elfcorehdr with the current state of CPUs and memory. During the process, the kexec_lock is held.

crash: move a few code bits to setup support of crash hotplug Patch series "crash: Kernel handling of CPU and memory hot un/plug", v28. Once the kdump service is loaded, if changes to CPUs or memory occur, either by hot un/plug or off/onlining, the crash elfcorehdr must also be updated. The elfcorehdr describes to kdump the CPUs and memory in the system, and any inaccuracies can result in a vmcore with missing CPU context or memory regions. The current solution utilizes udev to initiate an unload-then-reload of the kdump image (eg. kernel, initrd, boot_params, purgatory and elfcorehdr) by the userspace kexec utility. In the original post I outlined the significant performance problems related to offloading this activity to userspace. This patchset introduces a generic crash handler that registers with the CPU and memory notifiers. Upon CPU or memory changes, from either hot un/plug or off/onlining, this generic handler is invoked and performs important housekeeping, for example obtaining the appropriate lock, and then invokes an architecture specific handler to do the appropriate elfcorehdr update. Note the description in patch 'crash: change crash_prepare_elf64_headers() to for_each_possible_cpu()' and 'x86/crash: optimize CPU changes' that enables further optimizations related to CPU plug/unplug/online/offline performance of elfcorehdr updates. In the case of x86_64, the arch specific handler generates a new elfcorehdr, and overwrites the old one in memory; thus no involvement with userspace needed. To realize the benefits/test this patchset, one must make a couple of minor changes to userspace: - Prevent udev from updating kdump crash kernel on hot un/plug changes. Add the following as the first lines to the RHEL udev rule file /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/98-kexec.rules: # The kernel updates the crash elfcorehdr for CPU and memory changes SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end" SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end" With this changeset applied, the two rules evaluate to false for CPU and memory change events and thus skip the userspace unload-then-reload of kdump. - Change to the kexec_file_load for loading the kdump kernel: Eg. on RHEL: in /usr/bin/kdumpctl, change to: standard_kexec_args="-p -d -s" which adds the -s to select kexec_file_load() syscall. This kernel patchset also supports kexec_load() with a modified kexec userspace utility. A working changeset to the kexec userspace utility is posted to the kexec-tools mailing list here: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2023-May/027049.html To use the kexec-tools patch, apply, build and install kexec-tools, then change the kdumpctl's standard_kexec_args to replace the -s with --hotplug. The removal of -s reverts to the kexec_load syscall and the addition of --hotplug invokes the changes put forth in the kexec-tools patch. This patch (of 8): The crash hotplug support leans on the work for the kexec_file_load() syscall. To also support the kexec_load() syscall, a few bits of code need to be move outside of CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE. As such, these bits are moved out of kexec_file.c and into a common location crash_core.c. In addition, struct crash_mem and crash_notes were moved to new locales so that PROC_KCORE, which sets CRASH_CORE alone, builds correctly. No functionality change intended.

kexec: introduce sysctl parameters kexec_load_limit_* kexec allows replacing the current kernel with a different one. This is usually a source of concerns for sysadmins that want to harden a system. Linux already provides a way to disable loading new kexec kernel via kexec_load_disabled, but that control is very coard, it is all or nothing and does not make distinction between a panic kexec and a normal kexec. This patch introduces new sysctl parameters, with finer tuning to specify how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded. The sysadmin can set different limits for kexec panic and kexec reboot kernels. The value can be modified at runtime via sysctl, but only with a stricter value. With these new parameters on place, a system with loadpin and verity enabled, using the following kernel parameters: sysctl.kexec_load_limit_reboot=0 sysct.kexec_load_limit_panic=1 can have a good warranty that if initrd tries to load a panic kernel, a malitious user will have small chances to replace that kernel with a different one, even if they can trigger timeouts on the disk where the panic kernel lives.

kexec: turn all kexec_mutex acquisitions into trylocks Patch series "kexec, panic: Making crash_kexec() NMI safe", v4. This patch (of 2): Most acquistions of kexec_mutex are done via mutex_trylock() - those were a direct "translation" from: 8c5a1cf0ad3a ("kexec: use a mutex for locking rather than xchg()") there have however been two additions since then that use mutex_lock(): crash_get_memory_size() and crash_shrink_memory(). A later commit will replace said mutex with an atomic variable, and locking operations will become atomic_cmpxchg(). Rather than having those mutex_lock() become while (atomic_cmpxchg(&lock, 0, 1)), turn them into trylocks that can return -EBUSY on acquisition failure. This does halve the printable size of the crash kernel, but that's still neighbouring 2G for 32bit kernels which should be ample enough.

Quoting the 3e35142ef99fe ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from arch_kexec_apply_relocations[_add]") changelog: : Since commit d1bcae833b32f1 ("ELF: Don't generate unused section symbols") : [1], binutils (v2.36+) started dropping section symbols that it thought : were unused.

Due to this, recordmcount is unable to find a non-weak symbol in : .text.unlikely to generate a relocation record against. This patch (of 2); Drop __weak attribute from functions in kexec_file.c: - arch_kexec_kernel_image_probe() - arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() - arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() - arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole() - arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig() arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() calls into kexec_image_load_default(), so drop the static attribute for the latter. arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig() is not overridden by any architecture, so drop the __weak attribute.

Replace the conditional compilation using "#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE" by a check for "IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE)", to simplify the code and increase compile coverage. I only modified x86, arm, arm64 and riscv, other architectures such as sh, powerpc and s390 are better to be kept kexec code as-is so they are not touched. This patch (of 5): Make the forward declarations of crashk_res, crashk_low_res and crash_notes always visible. Code referring to these symbols can then just check for IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE), instead of requiring conditional compilation using an #ifdef, thus preparing to increase compile coverage and simplify the code.

powerpc: Move ima buffer fields to struct kimage The fields ima_buffer_addr and ima_buffer_size in "struct kimage_arch" for powerpc are used to carry forward the IMA measurement list across kexec system call. These fields are not architecture specific, but are currently limited to powerpc. arch_ima_add_kexec_buffer() defined in "arch/powerpc/kexec/ima.c" sets ima_buffer_addr and ima_buffer_size for the kexec system call. This function does not have architecture specific code, but is currently limited to powerpc. Move ima_buffer_addr and ima_buffer_size to "struct kimage".

kexec_file: split KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG into KEXEC_SIG and KEXEC_SIG_FORCE This is a preparatory patch for kexec_file_load() lockdown. A locked down kernel needs to prevent unsigned kernel images from being loaded with kexec_file_load(). Currently, the only way to force the signature verification is compiling with KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This prevents loading usigned images even when the kernel is not locked down at runtime. This patch splits KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG into KEXEC_SIG and KEXEC_SIG_FORCE. Analogous to the MODULE_SIG and MODULE_SIG_FORCE for modules, KEXEC_SIG turns on the signature verification but allows unsigned images to be loaded. KEXEC_SIG_FORCE disallows images without a valid signature.

powerpc, kexec_file: factor out memblock-based arch_kexec_walk_mem() Memblock list is another source for usable system memory layout. So move powerpc's arch_kexec_walk_mem() to common code so that other memblock-based architectures, particularly arm64, can also utilise it. A moved function is now renamed to kexec_walk_memblock() and integrated into kexec_locate_mem_hole(), which will now be usable for all architectures with no need for overriding arch_kexec_walk_mem(). With this change, arch_kexec_walk_mem() need no longer be a weak function, and was now renamed to kexec_walk_resources(). Since powerpc doesn't support kdump in its kexec_file_load(), the current kexec_walk_memblock() won't work for kdump either in this form, this will be fixed in the next patch.

kernel/kexec_file.c: allow archs to set purgatory load address For s390 new kernels are loaded to fixed addresses in memory before they are booted. With the current code this is a problem as it assumes the kernel will be loaded to an 'arbitrary' address. In particular, kexec_locate_mem_hole searches for a large enough memory region and sets the load address (kexec_bufer->mem) to it. Luckily there is a simple workaround for this problem. By returning 1 in arch_kexec_walk_mem, kexec_locate_mem_hole is turned off. This allows the architecture to set kbuf->mem by hand. While the trick works fine for the kernel it does not for the purgatory as here the architectures don't have access to its kexec_buffer. Give architectures access to the purgatories kexec_buffer by changing kexec_load_purgatory to take a pointer to it. With this change architectures have access to the buffer and can edit it as they need. A nice side effect of this change is that we can get rid of the purgatory_info->purgatory_load_address field. As now the information stored there can directly be accessed from kbuf->mem.

include/linux/kexec.h: silence compile warnings Patch series "kexec_file: Clean up purgatory load", v2. Following the discussion with Dave and AKASHI, here are the common code patches extracted from my recent patch set (Add kexec_file_load support to s390) [1]. The patches were extracted to allow upstream integration together with AKASHI's common code patches before the arch code gets adjusted to the new base. The reason for this series is to prepare common code for adding kexec_file_load to s390 as well as cleaning up the mis-use of the sh_offset field during purgatory load. In detail this series contains: Patch #1&2: Minor cleanups/fixes. Patch #3-9: Clean up the purgatory load/relocation code. Especially remove the mis-use of the purgatory_info->sechdrs->sh_offset field, currently holding a pointer into either kexec_purgatory (ro) or purgatory_buf (rw) depending on the section. With these patches the section address will be calculated verbosely and sh_offset will contain the offset of the section in the stripped purgatory binary (purgatory_buf). Patch #10: Allows architectures to set the purgatory load address. This patch is important for s390 as the kernel and purgatory have to be loaded to fixed addresses. In current code this is impossible as the purgatory load is opaque to the architecture. Patch #11: Moves x86 purgatories sha implementation to common lib/ directory to allow reuse in other architectures. This patch (of 11) When building the kernel with CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE enabled gcc prints a compile warning multiple times. In file included from <path>/linux/init/initramfs.c:526:0: <path>/include/linux/kexec.h:120:9: warning: `struct kimage' declared inside parameter list [enabled by default] unsigned long cmdline_len); ^ This is because the typedefs for kexec_file_load uses struct kimage before it is declared. Fix this by simply forward declaring struct kimage.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

x86/mm, kexec: Allow kexec to be used with SME Provide support so that kexec can be used to boot a kernel when SME is enabled. Support is needed to allocate pages for kexec without encryption. This is needed in order to be able to reboot in the kernel in the same manner as originally booted. Additionally, when shutting down all of the CPUs we need to be sure to flush the caches and then halt. This is needed when booting from a state where SME was not active into a state where SME is active (or vice-versa). Without these steps, it is possible for cache lines to exist for the same physical location but tagged both with and without the encryption bit. This can cause random memory corruption when caches are flushed depending on which cacheline is written last.

kdump: protect vmcoreinfo data under the crash memory Currently vmcoreinfo data is updated at boot time subsys_initcall(), it has the risk of being modified by some wrong code during system is running. As a result, vmcore dumped may contain the wrong vmcoreinfo. Later on, when using "crash", "makedumpfile", etc utility to parse this vmcore, we probably will get "Segmentation fault" or other unexpected errors. E.g. 1) wrong code overwrites vmcoreinfo_data; 2) further crashes the system; 3) trigger kdump, then we obviously will fail to recognize the crash context correctly due to the corrupted vmcoreinfo. Now except for vmcoreinfo, all the crash data is well protected(including the cpu note which is fully updated in the crash path, thus its correctness is guaranteed). Given that vmcoreinfo data is a large chunk prepared for kdump, we better protect it as well. To solve this, we relocate and copy vmcoreinfo_data to the crash memory when kdump is loading via kexec syscalls. Because the whole crash memory will be protected by existing arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() mechanism, we naturally protect vmcoreinfo_data from write(even read) access under kernel direct mapping after kdump is loaded. Since kdump is usually loaded at the very early stage after boot, we can trust the correctness of the vmcoreinfo data copied. On the other hand, we still need to operate the vmcoreinfo safe copy when crash happens to generate vmcoreinfo_note again, we rely on vmap() to map out a new kernel virtual address and update to use this new one instead in the following crash_save_vmcoreinfo(). BTW, we do not touch vmcoreinfo_note, because it will be fully updated using the protected vmcoreinfo_data after crash which is surely correct just like the cpu crash note.

crash: move crashkernel parsing and vmcore related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE Patch series "kexec/fadump: remove dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC and reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump", v4. Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel. crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such architecture specific infrastructure. This patchset removes dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC for crashkernel parameter and vmcoreinfo related code as it can be reused without kexec support. Also, crashkernel parameter is reused instead of fadump_reserve_mem to reserve memory for fadump. The first patch moves crashkernel parameter parsing and vmcoreinfo related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE instead of CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. The second patch reuses the definitions of append_elf_note() & final_note() functions under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE in IA64 arch code. The third patch removes dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC for firmware-assisted dump (fadump) in powerpc. The next patch reuses crashkernel parameter for reserving memory for fadump, instead of the fadump_reserve_mem parameter. This has the advantage of using all syntaxes crashkernel parameter supports, for fadump as well. The last patch updates fadump kernel documentation about use of crashkernel parameter. This patch (of 5): Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel. crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such architecture specific infrastructure. But currently, code related to vmcoreinfo and parsing of crashkernel parameter is built under CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. This patch introduces CONFIG_CRASH_CORE and moves the above mentioned code under this config, allowing code reuse without dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC. There is no functional change with this patch.

Revert "kdump, vmcoreinfo: report memory sections virtual addresses" This reverts commit 0549a3c02efb ("kdump, vmcoreinfo: report memory sections virtual addresses"). Commit 0549a3c02efb tells the userspace utility makedumpfile the randomized base address of these memmory sections when mm kaslr is enabled. However the following patch "kexec: export the value of phys_base instead of symbol address" makes makedumpfile not need these addresses any more. Besides we should use VMCOREINFO_NUMBER to export the value of the variable so that we can use the existing number_table mechanism of Makedumpfile to fetch it. So revert it now. If needed we can add it later. http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2016-October/017540.html Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1478568596-30060-1-git-send-email-bhe@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Garnier <thgarnie@google.com> Cc: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: "H .

kexec: add a kexec_crash_loaded() function Provide a wrapper function to be used by kernel code to check whether a crash kernel is loaded.

I'm exporting the function, because it will be used by Xen, and it is possible to compile Xen modules separately to enable the use of PV drivers with unmodified bare-metal kernels.

kexec: allow architectures to override boot mapping kexec physical addresses are the boot-time view of the system. For certain ARM systems (such as Keystone 2), the boot view of the system does not match the kernel's view of the system: the boot view uses a special alias in the lower 4GB of the physical address space. To cater for these kinds of setups, we need to translate between the boot view physical addresses and the normal kernel view physical addresses. This patch extracts the current transation points into linux/kexec.h, and allows an architecture to override the functions. Due to the translations required, we unfortunately end up with six translation functions, which are reduced down to four that the architecture can override.

kdump: arrange for paddr_vmcoreinfo_note() to return phys_addr_t On PAE systems (eg, ARM LPAE) the vmcore note may be located above 4GB physical on 32-bit architectures, so we need a wider type than "unsigned long" here.

s390/kexec: consolidate crash_map/unmap_reserved_pages() and arch_kexec_protect(unprotect)_crashkres() Commit 3f625002581b ("kexec: introduce a protection mechanism for the crashkernel reserved memory") is a similar mechanism for protecting the crash kernel reserved memory to previous crash_map/unmap_reserved_pages() implementation, the new one is more generic in name and cleaner in code (besides, some arch may not be allowed to unmap the pgtable). Therefore, this patch consolidates them, and uses the new arch_kexec_protect(unprotect)_crashkres() to replace former crash_map/unmap_reserved_pages() which by now has been only used by S390. The consolidation work needs the crash memory to be mapped initially, this is done in machine_kdump_pm_init() which is after reserve_crashkernel(). Once kdump kernel is loaded, the new arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() implemented for S390 will actually unmap the pgtable like before.

kexec: introduce a protection mechanism for the crashkernel reserved memory For the cases that some kernel (module) path stamps the crash reserved memory(already mapped by the kernel) where has been loaded the second kernel data, the kdump kernel will probably fail to boot when panic happens (or even not happens) leaving the culprit at large, this is unacceptable. The patch introduces a mechanism for detecting such cases: 1) After each crash kexec loading, it simply marks the reserved memory regions readonly since we no longer access it after that. When someone stamps the region, the first kernel will panic and trigger the kdump. The weak arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() is introduced to do the actual protection. 2) To allow multiple loading, once 1) was done we also need to remark the reserved memory to readwrite each time a system call related to kdump is made. The weak arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres() is introduced to do the actual protection. The architecture can make its specific implementation by overriding arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() and arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres().

kexec: Fix race between panic() and crash_kexec() Currently, panic() and crash_kexec() can be called at the same time. For example (x86 case): CPU 0: oops_end() crash_kexec() mutex_trylock() // acquired nmi_shootdown_cpus() // stop other CPUs CPU 1: panic() crash_kexec() mutex_trylock() // failed to acquire smp_send_stop() // stop other CPUs infinite loop If CPU 1 calls smp_send_stop() before nmi_shootdown_cpus(), kdump fails. In another case: CPU 0: oops_end() crash_kexec() mutex_trylock() // acquired <NMI> io_check_error() panic() crash_kexec() mutex_trylock() // failed to acquire infinite loop Clearly, this is an undesirable result. To fix this problem, this patch changes crash_kexec() to exclude others by using the panic_cpu atomic.

kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to kexec_load syscall. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: Eric W.

Change the existing IND_* flag macros to be defined as bit shifts of the corresponding IND_*_BIT macros. Also wrap all C language code in kexec.h with #if !defined(__ASSEMBLY__) so assembly files can include kexec.h to get the IND_* and IND_*_BIT macros. Some CPU instruction sets have tests for bit position which are convenient in implementing routines that operate on the kimage entry list. The addition of these bit position macros in a common location will avoid duplicate definitions and the chance that changes to the IND_* flags will not be propagated to assembly files.

kexec: take the segment adding out of locate_mem_hole functions In locate_mem_hole functions, a memory hole is located and added as kexec_segment. But from the name of locate_mem_hole, it should only take responsibility of searching a available memory hole to contain data of a specified size. So in this patch add a new field 'mem' into kexec_buf, then take that kexec segment adding code out of locate_mem_hole_top_down and locate_mem_hole_bottom_up. This make clear of the functionality of locate_mem_hole just like it declars to do. And by this locate_mem_hole_callback chould be used later if anyone want to locate a memory hole for other use. Meanwhile Vivek suggested opening code function __kexec_add_segment(), that way we have to retreive ksegment pointer once and it is easy to read. So just do it in this patch and remove __kexec_add_segment() since no one use it anymore. Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Eric W.

kexec: verify the signature of signed PE bzImage This is the final piece of the puzzle of verifying kernel image signature during kexec_file_load() syscall. This patch calls into PE file routines to verify signature of bzImage. If signature are valid, kexec_file_load() succeeds otherwise it fails. Two new config options have been introduced. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled. But that will happen when secureboot patches are merged. Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option enables signature verification support on bzImage. If this option is not set and previous one is set, kernel image loading will fail because kernel does not have support to verify signature of bzImage. I tested these patches with both "pesign" and "sbsign" signed bzImages. I used signing_key.priv key and signing_key.x509 cert for signing as generated during kernel build process (if module signing is enabled). Used following method to sign bzImage. pesign ====== - Convert DER format cert to PEM format cert openssl x509 -in signing_key.x509 -inform DER -out signing_key.x509.PEM -outform PEM - Generate a .p12 file from existing cert and private key file openssl pkcs12 -export -out kernel-key.p12 -inkey signing_key.priv -in signing_key.x509.PEM - Import .p12 file into pesign db pk12util -i /tmp/kernel-key.p12 -d /etc/pki/pesign - Sign bzImage pesign -i /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ -o /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.pesign -c "Glacier signing key - Magrathea" -s sbsign ====== sbsign --key signing_key.priv --cert signing_key.x509.PEM --output /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.sbsign /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ Patch details: Well all the hard work is done in previous patches. Now bzImage loader has just call into that code and verify whether bzImage signature are valid or not. Also create two config options. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled. But that will happen when secureboot patches are merged. Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option enables signature verification support on bzImage.

But with new system call, list of kexec segments will be prepared by kernel and kexec_segment->buf will point to a kernel memory. So while I was adding code where I made assumption that ->buf is pointing to kernel memory, sparse started giving warning. Make ->buf a union. And where a user space pointer is expected, access it using ->buf and where a kernel space pointer is expected, access it using ->kbuf. That takes care of sparse warnings.

kexec: add sysctl to disable kexec_load For general-purpose (i.e. distro) kernel builds it makes sense to build with CONFIG_KEXEC to allow end users to choose what kind of things they want to do with kexec. However, in the face of trying to lock down a system with such a kernel, there needs to be a way to disable kexec_load (much like module loading can be disabled). Without this, it is too easy for the root user to modify kernel memory even when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM and modules_disabled are set. With this change, it is still possible to load an image for use later, then disable kexec_load so the image (or lack of image) can't be altered. The intention is for using this in environments where "perfect" enforcement is hard. Without a verified boot, along with verified modules, and along with verified kexec, this is trying to give a system a better chance to defend itself (or at least grow the window of discoverability) against attack in the face of a privilege escalation. In my mind, I consider several boot scenarios: 1) Verified boot of read-only verified root fs loading fd-based verification of kexec images. 2) Secure boot of writable root fs loading signed kexec images. 3) Regular boot loading kexec (e.g. kcrash) image early and locking it. 4) Regular boot with no control of kexec image at all. 1 and 2 don't exist yet, but will soon once the verified kexec series has landed. 4 is the state of things now. The gap between 2 and 4 is too large, so this change creates scenario 3, a middle-ground above 4 when 2 and 1 are not possible for a system.

PCI: Disable Bus Master only on kexec reboot Add a flag to tell the PCI subsystem that kernel is shutting down in preparation to kexec a kernel. Add code in PCI subsystem to use this flag to clear Bus Master bit on PCI devices only in case of kexec reboot. This fixes a power-off problem on Acer Aspire V5-573G and likely other machines and avoids any other issues caused by clearing Bus Master bit on PCI devices in normal shutdown path. The problem was introduced by b566a22c2332 ("PCI: disable Bus Master on PCI device shutdown").

[S390] kdump: Add infrastructure for unmapping crashkernel memory This patch introduces a mechanism that allows architecture backends to remove page tables for the crashkernel memory. This can protect the loaded kdump kernel from being overwritten by broken kernel code. Two new functions crash_map_reserved_pages() and crash_unmap_reserved_pages() are added that can be implemented by architecture code. The crash_map_reserved_pages() function is called before and crash_unmap_reserved_pages() after the crashkernel segments are loaded. The functions are also called in crash_shrink_memory() to create/remove page tables when the crashkernel memory size is reduced. To support architectures that have large pages this patch also introduces a new define KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN. The crashkernel start and size must always be aligned with KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN.

kexec jump This patch provides an enhancement to kexec/kdump. It implements the following features: - Backup/restore memory used by the original kernel before/after kexec. - Save/restore CPU state before/after kexec. The features of this patch can be used as a general method to call program in physical mode (paging turning off). This can be used to call BIOS code under Linux. kexec-tools needs to be patched to support kexec jump. The patches and the precompiled kexec can be download from the following URL: source: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-src_git_kh10.tar.bz2 patches: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-patches_git_kh10.tar.bz2 binary: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec_git_kh10 Usage example of calling some physical mode code and return: 1. Compile and install patched kernel with following options selected: CONFIG_X86_32=y CONFIG_KEXEC=y CONFIG_PM=y CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP=y 2. Build patched kexec-tool or download the pre-built one. 3. Build some physical mode executable named such as "phy_mode" 4. Boot kernel compiled in step 1. 5. Load physical mode executable with /sbin/kexec. The shell command line can be as follow: /sbin/kexec --load-preserve-context --args-none phy_mode 6. Call physical mode executable with following shell command line: /sbin/kexec -e Implementation point: To support jumping without reserving memory. One shadow backup page (source page) is allocated for each page used by kexeced code image (destination page). When do kexec_load, the image of kexeced code is loaded into source pages, and before executing, the destination pages and the source pages are swapped, so the contents of destination pages are backupped. Before jumping to the kexeced code image and after jumping back to the original kernel, the destination pages and the source pages are swapped too. C ABI (calling convention) is used as communication protocol between kernel and called code. A flag named KEXEC_PRESERVE_CONTEXT for sys_kexec_load is added to indicate that the loaded kernel image is used for jumping back. Now, only the i386 architecture is supported.

vmcoreinfo: rename vmcoreinfo's macros returning the size This patchset is for the vmcoreinfo data. The vmcoreinfo data has the minimum debugging information only for dump filtering. makedumpfile (dump filtering command) gets it to distinguish unnecessary pages, and makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile. This patch: VMCOREINFO_SIZE() should be renamed VMCOREINFO_STRUCT_SIZE() since it's always returning the size of the struct with a given name. This change would allow VMCOREINFO_TYPEDEF_SIZE() to simply become VMCOREINFO_SIZE() since it need not be used exclusively for typedefs.

Extended crashkernel command line This patch adds a extended crashkernel syntax that makes the value of reserved system RAM dependent on the system RAM itself: crashkernel=<range1>:<size1>[,<range2>:<size2>,...][@offset] range=start-[end] For example: crashkernel=512M-2G:64M,2G-:128M The motivation comes from distributors that configure their crashkernel command line automatically with some configuration tool (YaST, you know ;)). Of course that tool knows the value of System RAM, but if the user removes RAM, then the system becomes unbootable or at least unusable and error handling is very difficult. This series implements this change for i386, x86_64, ia64, ppc64 and sh. That should be all platforms that support kdump in current mainline. I tested all platforms except sh due to the lack of a sh processor. This patch: This is the generic part of the patch. It adds a parse_crashkernel() function in kernel/kexec.c that is called by the architecture specific code that actually reserves the memory. That function takes the whole command line and looks itself for "crashkernel=" in it. If there are multiple occurrences, then the last one is taken. The advantage is that if you have a bootloader like lilo or elilo which allows you to append a command line parameter but not to remove one (like in GRUB), then you can add another crashkernel value for testing at the boot command line and this one overwrites the command line in the configuration then.

So makedumpfile v1.2.0 came to need these values and I created the patch to let the kernel output them. makedumpfile site: https://sourceforge.net/projects/makedumpfile/ Signed-off-by: Ken'ichi Ohmichi <oomichi@mxs.nes.nec.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Add vmcoreinfo This patch set frees the restriction that makedumpfile users should install a vmlinux file (including the debugging information) into each system. makedumpfile command is the dump filtering feature for kdump. It creates a small dumpfile by filtering unnecessary pages for the analysis. To distinguish unnecessary pages, it needs a vmlinux file including the debugging information. These days, the debugging package becomes a huge file, and it is hard to install it into each system. To solve the problem, kdump developers discussed it at lkml and kexec-ml. As the result, we reached the conclusion that necessary information for dump filtering (called "vmcoreinfo") should be embedded into the first kernel file and it should be accessed through /proc/vmcore during the second kernel. (http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.0/1806.html) Dan Aloni created the patch set for the above implementation. (http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.1/1053.html) And I updated it for multi architectures and memory models.

kdump/kexec: calculate note size at compile time Currently the size of the per-cpu region reserved to save crash notes is set by the per-architecture value MAX_NOTE_BYTES. Which in turn is currently set to 1024 on all supported architectures. While testing ia64 I recently discovered that this value is in fact too small. The particular setup I was using actually needs 1172 bytes. This lead to very tedious failure mode where the tail of one elf note would overwrite the head of another if they ended up being alocated sequentially by kmalloc, which was often the case. It seems to me that a far better approach is to caclculate the size that the area needs to be. This patch does just that. If a simpler stop-gap patch for ia64 to be squeezed into 2.6.21(.X) is needed then this should be as easy as making MAX_NOTE_BYTES larger in arch/asm-ia64/kexec.h. Perhaps 2048 would be a good choice. However, I think that the approach in this patch is a much more robust idea.

[ARM] 4137/1: Add kexec support Add kexec support to ARM. Improvements like commandline handling could be made but this patch gives basic functional support. It uses the next available syscall number, 347. Once the syscall number is known, userspace support will be finalised/submitted to kexec-tools, various patches already exist. Originally based on a patch by Maxim Syrchin but updated and forward ported by various people.

[PATCH] Kexec / Kdump: Unify elf note code The elf note saving code is currently duplicated over several architectures. This cleanup patch simply adds code to a common file and then replaces the arch-specific code with calls to the newly added code. The only drawback with this approach is that s390 doesn't fully support kexec-on-panic which for that arch leads to introduction of unused code.

[PATCH] kexec: fix in free initrd when overlapped with crashkernel region It is possible that the reserved crashkernel region can be overlapped with initrd since the bootloader sets the initrd location. When the initrd region is freed, the second kernel memory will not be contiguous. The Kexec_load can cause an oops since there is no contiguous memory to write the second kernel or this memory could be used in the first kernel itself and may not be part of the dump. For example, on powerpc, the initrd is located at 36MB and the crashkernel starts at 32MB. The kexec_load caused panic since writing into non-allocated memory (after 36MB). We could see the similar issue even on other archs. One possibility is to move the initrd outside of crashkernel region. But, the initrd region will be freed anyway before the system is up. This patch fixes this issue and frees only regions that are not part of crashkernel memory in case overlaps. Signed-off-by: Haren Myneni <haren@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: "Eric W.

[PATCH] kdump: dynamic per cpu allocation of memory for saving cpu registers - In case of system crash, current state of cpu registers is saved in memory in elf note format. So far memory for storing elf notes was being allocated statically for NR_CPUS. - This patch introduces dynamic allocation of memory for storing elf notes. It uses alloc_percpu() interface. This should lead to better memory usage. - Introduced based on Andi Kleen's and Eric W. Biederman's suggestions. - This patch also moves memory allocation for elf notes from architecture dependent portion to architecture independent portion. Now crash_notes is architecture independent. The whole idea is that size of memory to be allocated per cpu (MAX_NOTE_BYTES) can be architecture dependent and allocation of this memory can be architecture independent.

[PATCH] kdump: Use real pt_regs from exception Makes kexec_crashdump() take a pt_regs * as an argument. This allows to get exact register state at the point of the crash. If we come from direct panic assertion NULL will be passed and the current registers saved before crashdump. This hooks into two places: die(): check the conditions under which we will panic when calling do_exit and go there directly with the pt_regs that caused the fatal fault. die_nmi(): If we receive an NMI lockup while in the kernel use the pt_regs and go directly to crash_kexec(). We're probably nested up badly at this point so this might be the only chance to escape with proper information.
