2021-12-25kernel/crash_core: suppress unknown crashkernel parameter warningPhilipp Rudo1-0/+11
When booting with crashkernel= on the kernel command line a warning similar to Kernel command line: ro console=ttyS0 crashkernel=256M Unknown kernel command line parameters "crashkernel=256M", will be passed to user space. is printed. This comes from crashkernel= being parsed independent from the kernel parameter handling mechanism. So the code in init/main.c doesn't know that crashkernel= is a valid kernel parameter and prints this incorrect warning. Suppress the warning by adding a dummy early_param handler for crashkernel=.

2021-06-16crash_core, vmcoreinfo: append 'SECTION_SIZE_BITS' to vmcoreinfoPingfan Liu1-0/+1
As mentioned in kernel commit 1d50e5d0c505 ("crash_core, vmcoreinfo: Append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfo"), SECTION_SIZE_BITS in the formula: #define SECTIONS_SHIFT (MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - SECTION_SIZE_BITS) Besides SECTIONS_SHIFT, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is also used to calculate PAGES_PER_SECTION in makedumpfile just like kernel. Unfortunately, this arch-dependent macro SECTION_SIZE_BITS changes, e.g. recently in kernel commit f0b13ee23241 ("arm64/sparsemem: reduce SECTION_SIZE_BITS"). But user space wants a stable interface to get this info. Such info is impossible to be deduced from a crashdump vmcore. Hence append SECTION_SIZE_BITS to vmcoreinfo.

2020-11-20crypto: sha - split sha.h into sha1.h and sha2.hEric Biggers1-1/+1
Currently <crypto/sha.h> contains declarations for both SHA-1 and SHA-2, and <crypto/sha3.h> contains declarations for SHA-3. This organization is inconsistent, but more importantly SHA-1 is no longer considered to be cryptographically secure. So to the extent possible, SHA-1 shouldn't be grouped together with any of the other SHA versions, and usage of it should be phased out. Therefore, split <crypto/sha.h> into two headers <crypto/sha1.h> and <crypto/sha2.h>, and make everyone explicitly specify whether they want the declarations for SHA-1, SHA-2, or both. This avoids making the SHA-1 declarations visible to files that don't want anything to do with SHA-1. It also prepares for potentially moving sha1.h into a new insecure/ or dangerous/ directory.

2020-08-12kdump: append kernel build-id string to VMCOREINFOVijay Balakrishna1-0/+50
Make kernel GNU build-id available in VMCOREINFO. Having build-id in VMCOREINFO facilitates presenting appropriate kernel namelist image with debug information file to kernel crash dump analysis tools. Currently VMCOREINFO lacks uniquely identifiable key for crash analysis automation. Regarding if this patch is necessary or matching of linux_banner and OSRELEASE in VMCOREINFO employed by crash(8) meets the need -- IMO, build-id approach more foolproof, in most instances it is a cryptographic hash generated using internal code/ELF bits unlike kernel version string upon which linux_banner is based that is external to the code. I feel each is intended for a different purpose. Also OSRELEASE is not suitable when two different kernel builds from same version with different features enabled. Currently for most linux (and non-linux) systems build-id can be extracted using standard methods for file types such as user mode crash dumps, shared libraries, loadable kernel modules etc., This is an exception for linux kernel dump. Having build-id in VMCOREINFO brings some uniformity for automation tools. Tyler said: : I think this is a nice improvement over today's linux_banner approach for : correlating vmlinux to a kernel dump. : : The elf notes parsing in this patch lines up with what is described in in : the "Notes (Nhdr)" section of the elf(5) man page. : : BUILD_ID_MAX is sufficient to hold a sha1 build-id, which is the default : build-id type today in GNU ld(2). It is also sufficient to hold the : "fast" build-id, which is the default build-id type today in LLVM lld(2).

2020-07-02crash_core, vmcoreinfo: Append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfoBhupesh Sharma1-0/+1
Right now user-space tools like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' need to rely on a best-guess method of determining value of 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' supported by underlying kernel. This value is used in user-space code to calculate the bit-space required to store a section for SPARESMEM (similar to the existing calculation method used in the kernel implementation): #define SECTIONS_SHIFT (MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - SECTION_SIZE_BITS) Now, regressions have been reported in user-space utilities like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' on arm64, with the recently added kernel support for 52-bit physical address space, as there is no clear method of determining this value in user-space (other than reading kernel CONFIG flags). As per suggestion from makedumpfile maintainer (Kazu), it makes more sense to append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfo in the core code itself rather than in arch-specific code, so that the user-space code for other archs can also benefit from this addition to the vmcoreinfo and use it as a standard way of determining 'SECTIONS_SHIFT' value in user-land. A reference 'makedumpfile' implementation which reads the 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' value from vmcoreinfo in a arch-independent fashion is available here: While at it also update vmcoreinfo documentation for 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' variable being added to vmcoreinfo. 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' defines the maximum supported physical address space memory.

2019-03-06kexec: export PG_offline to VMCOREINFODavid Hildenbrand1-0/+2
Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by dump tools like makedumpfile. While XEN is able to check in the crash kernel whether a certain pfn is actuall backed by memory in the hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of other balloon inflated memory will essentially result in zero pages getting allocated by the hypervisor and the dump getting filled with this data. The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a dumping tool could know which pages only contain stale information not to be dumped. We now have PG_offline which can be (and already is by virtio-balloon) used for marking pages as logically offline. Follow up patches will make use of this flag also in other balloon implementations. Let's export PG_offline via PAGE_OFFLINE_MAPCOUNT_VALUE, so makedumpfile can directly skip pages that are logically offline and the content therefore stale. Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions result in a kernel panic when dumping them.

In the latter case, VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL() won't work, as it tries to take the address of the given symbol: #define VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(name) \ vmcoreinfo_append_str("SYMBOL(%s)=%lx\n", #name, (unsigned long)&name) Instead, use VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL_ARRAY(), which uses the value: #define VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL_ARRAY(name) \ vmcoreinfo_append_str("SYMBOL(%s)=%lx\n", #name, (unsigned long)name) This is the same thing for the array case but isn't an error for the macro case.

2018-06-08mm: split page_type out from _mapcountMatthew Wilcox1-0/+1
We're already using a union of many fields here, so stop abusing the _mapcount and make page_type its own field. That implies renaming some of the machinery that creates PageBuddy, PageBalloon and PageKmemcg; bring back the PG_buddy, PG_balloon and PG_kmemcg names. As suggested by Kirill, make page_type a bitmask. Because it starts out life as -1 (thanks to sharing the storage with _mapcount), setting a page flag means clearing the appropriate bit. This gives us space for probably twenty or so extra bits (depending how paranoid we want to be about _mapcount underflow).

2018-01-13kdump: write correct address of mem_section into vmcoreinfoKirill A. Shutemov1-1/+1
Depending on configuration mem_section can now be an array or a pointer to an array allocated dynamically. In most cases, we can continue to refer to it as 'mem_section' regardless of what it is. But there's one exception: '&mem_section' means "address of the array" if mem_section is an array, but if mem_section is a pointer, it would mean "address of the pointer". We've stepped onto this in kdump code. VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(mem_section) writes down address of pointer into vmcoreinfo, not array as we wanted. Let's introduce VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL_ARRAY() that would handle the situation correctly for both cases.

parse_crashkernel_mem() silently returns if we get zero bytes in the parsing function. It is useful for debugging to add a message, especially if the kernel cannot boot correctly. Add a pr_info instead of pr_warn because it is expected behavior for size = 0, eg. crashkernel=2G-4G:128M, size will be 0 in case system memory is less than 2G.

2017-07-13kdump: protect vmcoreinfo data under the crash memoryXunlei Pang1-1/+16
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.

2017-07-13powerpc/fadump: use the correct VMCOREINFO_NOTE_SIZE for phdrXunlei Pang1-2/+1
vmcoreinfo_max_size stands for the vmcoreinfo_data, the correct one we should use is vmcoreinfo_note whose total size is VMCOREINFO_NOTE_SIZE. Like explained in commit 77019967f06b ("kdump: fix exported size of vmcoreinfo note"), it should not affect the actual function, but we better fix it, also this change should be safe and backward compatible. After this, we can get rid of variable vmcoreinfo_max_size, let's use the corresponding macros directly, fewer variables means more safety for vmcoreinfo operation.

2017-07-13kexec: move vmcoreinfo out of the kernel's .bss sectionXunlei Pang1-4/+22
As Eric said, "what we need to do is move the variable vmcoreinfo_note out of the kernel's .bss section. And modify the code to regenerate and keep this information in something like the control page. Definitely something like this needs a page all to itself, and ideally far away from any other kernel data structures. I clearly was not watching closely the data someone decided to keep this silly thing in the kernel's .bss section." This patch allocates extra pages for these vmcoreinfo_XXX variables, one advantage is that it enhances some safety of vmcoreinfo, because vmcoreinfo now is kept far away from other kernel data structures.

2017-05-09crash: move crashkernel parsing and vmcore related code under CONFIG_CRASH_COREHari Bathini1-0/+445
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.
