Add the 64-bit processing support of the LoongArch architecture. For the time
being, the quick restart function(kexec) is supported. That is, the "kexec -l"
and "kexec -e" commands can be used normally.
At the same time, the crash dump function also supports, "kexec -p" operation
can be successfully performed, and the vmcore file can be generated.
I tested this on LoongArch 3A5000 machine and works as expected,
kexec:
$ sudo kexec -l /boot/vmlinux --reuse-cmdline
$ sudo kexec -e
kdump:
$ sudo kexec -p /boot/vmlinux-kdump --reuse-cmdline --append="nr_cpus=1"
# echo c > /proc/sysrq_trigger

During kexec there are two kernel versions at play. The version of
the running kernel and the version of the kernel that will be booted.
On powerpc it appears people have been using the version of the
running kernel to attempt to detect properties of the kernel to be
booted which is just wrong. As the linux kernel version that is being
detected is a no longer supported kernel just remove that buggy and
confused code.
On x86_64 the kernel_version is used to compute the starting virtual
address of the running kernel so a proper core dump may be generated.
Using the kernel_version stopped working a while ago when the starting
virtual address became randomized.
The old code was kept for the case where the kernel was not built with
randomization support, but there is nothing in reading /proc/kcore
that won't work to detect the starting virtual address even there.
In fact /proc/kcore must have the starting virtual address or a
debugger can not make sense of the running kernel.
So just make computing the starting virtual address on x86_64
unconditional. With a hard coded fallback just in case something went
wrong.
Doing something with kernel_version() has become important as recent
stable kernels have seen the minor version to > 255. Just removing
kernel_version() looks like the best option.

When kexec is utilized in a Xen environment, it has an explicit
run-time dependency on libxenctrl.so. This dependency occurs
during the configure stage and when building kexec-tools.
When kexec is utilized in a non-Xen environment (either bare
metal or KVM), the configure and build of kexec-tools omits
any reference to libxenctrl.so.
Thus today it is not currently possible to configure and build
a *single* kexec that will work in *both* Xen and non-Xen
environments, unless the libxenctrl.so is *always* present.
For example, a kexec configured for Xen in a Xen environment:
# ldd build/sbin/kexec
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007ffdeba5c000)
libxenctrl.so.4.4 => /usr/lib64/libxenctrl.so.4.4 (0x00000038d8000000)
libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00000038d6c00000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00000038d6000000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x00000038d6400000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00000038d6800000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x000055e9f8c6c000)
# build/sbin/kexec -v
kexec-tools 2.0.16
However, the *same* kexec executable fails in a non-Xen environment:
# copy xen kexec to .
# ldd ./kexec
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fffa9da7000)
libxenctrl.so.4.4 => not found
liblzma.so.0 => /usr/lib64/liblzma.so.0 (0x0000003014e00000)
libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x000000300ea00000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x000000300de00000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x000000300e200000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000558cc786c000)
# ./kexec -v
./kexec: error while loading shared libraries:
libxenctrl.so.4.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
At Oracle we "workaround" this by having two kexec-tools packages,
one for Xen and another for non-Xen environments. At Oracle, the
desire is to offer a single kexec-tools package that works in either
environment. To achieve this, kexec-tools would either have to ship
with libxenctrl.so (which we have deemed as unacceptable), or we can
make kexec perform run-time linking against libxenctrl.so.
This patch is one possible way to alleviate the explicit run-time
dependency on libxenctrl.so. This implementation utilizes a set of
macros to wrap calls into libxenctrl.so so that the library can
instead be dlopen() and obtain the function via dlsym() and then
make the call. The advantage of this implementation is that it
requires few changes to the existing kexec-tools code. The dis-
advantage is that it uses macros to remap libxenctrl functions
and do work under the hood.
Another possible implementation worth considering is the approach
taken by libvmi. Reference the following file:
https://github.com/libvmi/libvmi/blob/master/libvmi/driver/xen/libxc_wrapper.h
The libxc_wrapper_t structure definition that starts at line ~33
has members that are function pointers into libxenctrl.so. This
structure is populated once and then later referenced/dereferenced
by the callers of libxenctrl.so members. The advantage of this
implementation is it is more explicit in managing the use of
libxenctrl.so and its versions, but the disadvantage is it would
require touching more of the kexec-tools code.
The following is a list libxenctrl members utilized by kexec:
Functions:
xc_interface_open
xc_kexec_get_range
xc_interface_close
xc_kexec_get_range
xc_interface_open
xc_get_max_cpus
xc_kexec_get_range
xc_version
xc_kexec_exec
xc_kexec_status
xc_kexec_unload
xc_hypercall_buffer_array_create
xc__hypercall_buffer_array_alloc
xc_hypercall_buffer_array_destroy
xc_kexec_load
xc_get_machine_memory_map
Data:
xc__hypercall_buffer_HYPERCALL_BUFFER_NULL
These were identified by configuring and building kexec-tools
with Xen support, but omitting the -lxenctrl from the LDFLAGS
in the Makefile for an x86_64 build.
The above libxenctrl members were referenced via these source
files.
kexec/crashdump-xen.c
kexec/kexec-xen.c
kexec/arch/i386/kexec-x86-common.c
kexec/arch/i386/crashdump-x86.c
This patch provides a wrapper around the calls to the above
functions in libxenctrl.so. Every libxenctrl call must pass a
xc_interface which it obtains from xc_interface_open().
So the existing code is already structured in a manner that
facilitates graceful dlopen()'ing of the libxenctrl.so and
the subsequent dlsym() of the required member.
The patch creates a wrapper function around xc_interface_open()
and xc_interface_close() to perform the dlopen() and dlclose().
For the remaining xc_ functions, this patch defines a macro
of the same name which performs the dlsym() and then invokes
the function. See the __xc_call() macro for details.
There was one data item in libxenctrl.so that presented a
unique problem, HYPERCALL_BUFFER_NULL. It was only utilized
once, as
set_xen_guest_handle(xen_segs[s].buf.h, HYPERCALL_BUFFER_NULL);
I tried a variety of techniques but could not find a general
macro-type solution without modifying xenctrl.h. So the
solution was to declare a local HYPERCALL_BUFFER_NULL, and
this appears to work. I admit I am not familiar with libxenctrl
to state if this is a satisfactory workaround, so feedback
here welcome. I can state that this allows kexec to load/unload/kexec
on Xen and non-Xen environments that I've tested without issue.
With this patch applied, kexec-tools can be built with Xen
support and yet there is no explicit run-time dependency on
libxenctrl.so. Thus it can also be deployed in non-Xen
environments where libxenctrl.so is not installed.

# build/sbin/kexec -v
kexec-tools 2.0.16
This feature/ability is enabled with the following:
./configure --with-xen=dl
The previous --with-xen=no and --with-xen=yes still work as before.
Not specifying a --with-xen still defaults to --with-xen=yes.
As I've introduced a new build and run-time mode, I've done an
extensive matrix of both build-time and run-time checks of kexec
with this patch applied. The set of build-time scenarios are:
1: configure --with-xen=no and Xen support NOT present
2: configure --with-xen=no and Xen support IS present
3: configure --with-xen=yes and Xen support NOT present
4: configure --with-xen=yes and Xen support IS present
5: configure --with-xen=dl and Xen support NOT present
6: configure --with-xen=dl and Xen support IS present
Xen support present requires that configure can find both
xenctrl.h and libxenctrl.so.
Then for each of the six scenarios above, the corresponding kexec
binary was tested on a Xen system (Oracle's OVS dom0) and a
non-Xen system (Oracle Linux).
There are two build-time checks: did kexec build, and did
it contain libxenctrl.so? The presence of libxenctrl.so
in kexec was checked via ldd. The results were:
Scenario | Build | libxenctrl.so | Result
1 | pass | no | pass - see Note 1
2 | pass | no | pass - see Note 1
3 | pass | no | pass - see Note 2
4 | pass | yes | pass - see Note 3
5 | pass | no | pass - see Note 2
6 | pass | no | pass - see Note 4
Note 1: This passes since due to --with-xen=no, there will
be no Xen support in kexec and therefore no libxenctrl.so a
in the kexec.
Note 2: This passes since while --with-xen=yes, the configure
displays a message indicating that Xen support is disabled,
and allows kexec to build (this is the same behavior as prior
to this patch). And since Xen support is disabled, there is
no libxenctrl.so in the kexec.
Note 3: This passes since with --with-xen=yes and configure
locating the xenctrl.h and libxenctrl.so, support for Xen was
built into kexec. Ldd shows an explicit dependency on the library.
Note 4: This passes since with --with-xen=dl and configure
locating the xenctrl.h and libxencrl.so, support for Xen
was built into kexec. However, this uses the new technique
introduced by this patch and, as a result, ldd shows that the
libxenctrl.so is not a explicit run-time dependency for kexec
(rather libdl.so is now an explicit dependency). This is
precisely the goal of this patch!
The net effect is that there are now three "flavors" of a kexec
binary (prior to this patch there were two): a) kexec with no
support for Xen [scenarios 1, 2, 3, 5], b) kexec with support
for Xen and libxenctrl.so as an explicit dependency [scenario 4],
and c) kexec with support for Xen and libxenctrl.so is NOT an
explicit dependency [scenario 6].
The run-time checks are to take each of the six scenarios above
and run the corresponding kexec binary on both a Xen system and
a non-Xen system. The test for each kexec scenario was:
% service kdump stop
% vi /etc/init.d/kdump
change KEXEC= to /sbin/kexec-[123456]
% service kdump start
# If not FAILED, then below
% service kdump status
Kdump is operational
% rm -fr /var/crash/*
% echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
# after reboot verify vmcore generated
% ls -al /var/crash/<tab>
The results were:
Scenario | Xen environment | non-Xen environment
1 | fail - see Note 5 | pass
2 | fail - see Note 5 | pass
3 | fail - see Note 6 | pass
4 | pass | fail - see Note 7
5 | fail - see Note 6 | pass
6 | pass | pass
Note 5: Due to --with-xen=no, kexec lacks support for Xen and will
fail in the Xen environment. This behavior is the same as prior
to this patch.
Note 6: Due to the missing xenctrl.h and libxenctrl.so, kexec was
built without support for Xen, and thus will fail in the Xen
environment. This behavior is the same as prior to this patch.
Note 7: This kexec has the explicit dependency on libxenctrl.so
which prevents it from running in a non-Xen environment. This is
expected as this is the original issue for which this patch is
intended to address.
Note that for scenarios 1, 2, 3 and 5 kexec lacks support for Xen,
thus these versions are expected to "fail" in a Xen environment.
On the flip side, since a non-Xen environment does not need
libxenctrl.so, all but scenario 4 are expected to "pass" in a
non-Xen environment. The results match these expectations!
And, of course, importantly with this patch applied, it did not
have an adverse impact on kexec build or run-time.

get_kernel_stext_sym() has been defined for both arm and i386. Other

More over, kallsyms is not arch specific representation, therefore have

The motivation for this is to remove duplicated code by sharing the fs2dt
between different architectures.
The code added by this patch is very close to the code currently used by
ppc64, and thus migrating that architecture should not be difficult. The
32bit powerpc code is a little different and thus more care is needed when
migrating that architecture to this code.
Unfortunately I do not have any powerpc equipment available to test this
code.

This fixes a bug when using gdb with vmcore
as explained by Dave Anderson:
The kexec/arch/x86_64/crashdump-x86_64.h file contains a
stale PAGE_OFFSET value. In 2.6.27 it was changed from
0xffff810000000000UL to 0xffff880000000000UL. This is
only a problem when using gdb with the vmlinux/vmcore
pair, because gdb relies upon the PT_LOAD segment's p_vaddr
values in the ELF header to be correct.

This patch allows one to load a lzma compressed kernel using kexec -l.
As I wanted the lzma code to be very similar to the existing
zlib slurp_decompress I took lzread and associated routines
from the cpio lzma support. Tested on my x86 laptop using the
following commands:
lzma e bzImage bzImage.lzma
kexec -l bzImage.lzma
Having lzma support is particularly useful on some embedded
systems on which we have the kernel already lzma compressed
and available on a mtd partition.

To make static compilation work with
LDFLAGS=-static ./configure
make
we have to move $(LIBS) on the end of the compiler line. Static compilation has
been requested by "Yinghai Lu" <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com>. Although I don't see the
practical benefit in most cases, I don't think we should not support it. Since
kexec does not use name resolution functions of libc, it's valid to use static
linking.

After the patch that provides /sys/firmware/memmap has been merged in the 'tip'
tree by Ingo Molnar, kexec should use that interface.
This patch implements architecture-independent parsing in a new file called
firmware_memmap.c. The x86 part is ported to use that memory map for
kexec. We don't use that memory map for building the ELF core headers,
that was the intention for that new interface.

This code was copy-pasted into every architecture and was basically
identical.
Besides producing a nice net reduction in code, this factors a
portability challenge into a single function that can be easily replaced
at build-time.

This reduces the kexec-tools' demands on the capabilities of the
toolchain, and improves standards conformance, without really changing
maintenance complexity.

[ Reposted with correct linux-mips address ]
Hi,
this patch switches the mips support in kexec-tools around a little bit.
All the files and directories containing "mipsel" have been renamed
to contain "mips" instead.
This is kind of consistent with the way that ARCH=mips in the kernel
works for both big and little endian.
After a small amount of tweaking, which is also included in this patch, the
code compiles and works fine for big endian mips as well as small endian
mips. All you need to do is compile using an appropriate compiler.
That is to say, kexec-tools's build system doesn't need to
be told about which endienness the code is being compiled for.
I have added kept mipsel as a supported "architecture" via ./configure,
though its just an alias for mips now. This is consistent with how
other architectures such as sh are treated. But I'm happy to remove
mipsel from ./configure if the mips people want that.
I tested this patch using qemu and the 2.6.24.3 tag of the mips-2.6 git
tree compiled for the qemu machine type for both big and little endian.
The qemu machine type has subsequently been removed, and kexec-tools
needs some work in order to function with qemu - as far as I understand
the way the boot parameters are passed needs to be fixed, likely
in purgatory. However, this is not related to the changes
introduced in this patch.
I intend to merge this patch into kexec-tools-testing if
no alarm bells are sounded.

With the recent build changes a number of unneded files
crept into tarballs, including .o and .d files.
This patch is farily verbose, but hopefully in the long
run this system will be obvious enough to be maintainable.

Hi,
This fixes a minor regression that occured with Jeremy's recent
reworking of the build system. I guess he wasn't dealing with
compressed images and thus didn't notice that zlib support had
been disabled.
The fix involves updating an #ifdef to use the new symbol,
and ensuring that -lz is passed to the linker as neccessary.

This change makes kexec-tools work more like a standard configure-make-
make-install-type project:
* Remove $(OBJDIR) stuff. To do an out-of-tree build, just configure
from a different directory.
* Use the implicit Makefile rules more, and just edit the compiler
flags for specific targets.
* Simplify compiler/linker flags - no need for EXTRA_*
* Add TARGET_CC, and improve checks for BUILD_CC too.
* Set arch-specific flags in arch-specific makefiles, not conditional
on $(ARCH).
* Generate dependency files in the main compile, rather than as a
separate step.
* Don't #include sha256.c, but re-build it into the purgatory.
Still a work-in-progress.

kexec-tools: Introduce crashdump-xen.c and Xen support V2
This patch adds the new file crashdump-xen.c that implements Xen support. The
Xen support is not complete yet in the sense that a special program header
for the hypervisor isn't created. Crash notes for physical cpus are created
so basic support is at least provided by this patch.
Version 2 of this patch includes a cleaner implementation for crashdump-elf.c
together with a bugfix for xen_get_nr_phys_cpus().

kexec-tools: Introduce kexec-iomem.c and /proc/iomem parsing code V2
This patch adds the new file kexec-iomem.c that implements code to parse
/proc/iomem line-by-line. The following patches make use of this code
- especially the Xen-code that use /proc/iomem to get crash note information.
This version renames a function to parse_iomem_single() as suggested by Vivek.
We also now export kexec_iomem_for_each_line() in a header file.

[BUILD] CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS and LDFLAGS fixes
* Set internal CPPFLAGS as EXTRA_CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS as EXTRA_CFLAGS,
and LDFLAGS as EXTRA_LDFLAGS
- Don't overwrite CPPFLAGS, LDLFAGS or CFLAGS from the environment
- They are irrelevant for BUILD_CC
- When cross-compiling for a ppc64 host on a non-ppc64 host,
EXTRA_CFLAGS, which is included in BUILD_CPPFLAGS contains
-mcall-aixdesc, which does not work on i386 at least
* Use LDFLAGS when linking kexec
- Append rather than overwrite in purgatory/Makefile
The purpose of these changes is three-fold.
* CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS and LDFLAGS from the environment really ought
to be honoured. For one thing;
* Without these changes, the confgiure taget in
the toplevel makefile can't work
* Without these changes, cross compiling does not work -
well, I can't work out how to get it to work anyway.

o With relocatable kernel in picture, the kernel text map offset
(__START_KERNEL_map) is no longer constant. It depends on where kernel
is loaded.
o Now /proc/kcore is read to determine the virtual address the kernel
is mapped at and /porc/iomem is read for determining the physical
address where kernel is loaded at. This information is enough to
create to fill virtual address and phy addr info for elf header
mapping kernel text and data.
o Virtual address for kernel text are needed by gdb as well as crash to
retrieve the meaningful data from core file.
o This patch requires "elf note memsz" fix in the kernel. Currently
that fix is in -mm tree. It will still work with older kernels. It will
display the warning messages (/proc/kcore could not be parsed) and hardcode
the kernel virtual address and size.

[BUILD] Don't do a partial build on clean
$(OBJDIR)/kexec/purgatory.c is a target and needs special treatment,
else calling make clean on an already clean tree will cause it -
and as a result a whole bunch of other stuff - to be built only
to be immediately cleaned.
There are some more pathological cases, where users manually
removed .d files, and then these are regenerated (but not removed)
on make clean. However this change does ensure that the following
is a bit more sensible.
make clean; make clean

Only i386 port of kdump was available when crash_notes was exported
through /sys/kernel/crash_notes. Rest of the architectures see new arch-
independent percpu crash_notes sysfs interface only. Hence thought no
point copying backward compatibility code in generic code.

The error paths which do not set address to zero are non return path. They
call die() which inturn calls exit(1) after printing appropriate error
messasge.

In that case kexec will fail much earlier. There will be no reserved
memory area for loading second kernel (crashkernel=X&Y) hence attempt to
load the second kernel will fail and control will not reach this place at
all.
Modifed patch appended.

o This patch moves per cpu interface to retrieve crash_notes address to
architecture independent section. (As suggested by Haren)
o For i386, kernels older than 2.6.15-rc1-mm2 used to export crash_notes
through /sys/kernel/crash_notes. This patch also provides backward
compatibility with older kernel versions.
o Definition of MAX_NOTE_BYTES moved to architecture independent header
file as everybody is using same definition.
o Definition of MAX_LINE moved to architecture independent header file.
Seems to be a better option than defining it in many C files.
