2014-06-07powerpc, kexec: Fix "Processor X is stuck" issue during kexec from ST modeSrivatsa S. Bhat
commit 011e4b02f1da156ac7fea28a9da878f3c23af739 upstream. If we try to perform a kexec when the machine is in ST (Single-Threaded) mode (ppc64_cpu --smt=off), the kexec operation doesn't succeed properly, and we get the following messages during boot: [ 0.089866] POWER8 performance monitor hardware support registered [ 0.089985] power8-pmu: PMAO restore workaround active. [ 5.095419] Processor 1 is stuck. [ 10.097933] Processor 2 is stuck. [ 15.100480] Processor 3 is stuck. [ 20.102982] Processor 4 is stuck. [ 25.105489] Processor 5 is stuck.

Note that only the sibling threads are stuck, while the primary threads (0, 8, 16 etc) boot just fine. Looking closer at the previous step of kexec, we observe that kexec tries to wakeup (bring online) the sibling threads of all the cores, before performing kexec: [ 9464.131231] Starting new kernel [ 9464.148507] kexec: Waking offline cpu 1. [ 9464.148552] kexec: Waking offline cpu 2. [ 9464.148600] kexec: Waking offline cpu 3. [ 9464.148636] kexec: Waking offline cpu 4. [ 9464.148671] kexec: Waking offline cpu 5. [ 9464.148708] kexec: Waking offline cpu 6. [ 9464.148743] kexec: Waking offline cpu 7. [ 9464.148779] kexec: Waking offline cpu 9. [ 9464.148815] kexec: Waking offline cpu 10.

[ 9464.148994] kexec: Waking offline cpu 15. [ 9464.149030] kexec: Waking offline cpu 17. Instrumenting this piece of code revealed that the cpu_up() operation actually fails with -EBUSY. Thus, only the primary threads of all the cores are online during kexec, and hence this is a sure-shot receipe for disaster, as explained in commit e8e5c2155b (powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across kexec), as well as in the comment above wake_offline_cpus(). It turns out that cpu_up() was returning -EBUSY because the variable 'cpu_hotplug_disabled' was set to 1; and this disabling of CPU hotplug was done by migrate_to_reboot_cpu() inside kernel_kexec(). Now, migrate_to_reboot_cpu() was originally written with the assumption that any further code will not need to perform CPU hotplug, since we are anyway in the reboot path. However, kexec is clearly not such a case, since we depend on onlining CPUs, atleast on powerpc. So re-enable cpu-hotplug after returning from migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in the kexec path, to fix this regression in kexec on powerpc. Also, wrap the cpu_up() in powerpc kexec code within a WARN_ON(), so that we can catch such issues more easily in the future.

2014-01-23kexec: add sysctl to disable kexec_loadKees Cook
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.

2013-12-18kexec: migrate to reboot cpuVivek Goyal
Commit 1b3a5d02ee07 ("reboot: move arch/x86 reboot= handling to generic kernel") moved reboot= handling to generic code. In the process it also removed the code in native_machine_shutdown() which are moving reboot process to reboot_cpu/cpu0. I guess that thought must have been that all reboot paths are calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu(), so we don't need this special handling. But kexec reboot path (kernel_kexec()) is not calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() so above change broke kexec. Now reboot can happen on non-boot cpu and when INIT is sent in second kerneo to bring up BP, it brings down the machine. So start calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in kexec reboot path to avoid this problem. Bisected by WANG Chao.

2013-12-07PCI: Disable Bus Master only on kexec rebootKhalid Aziz
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"). This patch is based on discussion at http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=138425645204355&w=2 Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63861 Reported-by: Chang Liu <cl91tp@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Khalid Aziz <khalid.aziz@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Acked-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <koct9i@gmail.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v3.5+

2013-02-27kexec: add the values related to buddy system for filtering free pages.Atsushi Kumagai
tAdd adds the values related to buddy system to vmcoreinfo data so that makedumpfile (dump filtering command) can filter out all free pages with the new logic. It's faster than the current logic because it can distinguish free page by analyzing page structure at the same time as filtering for other unnecessary pages (e.g. anonymous page). OTOH, the current logic has to trace free_list to distinguish free pages while analyzing page structure to filter out other unnecessary pages. The new logic uses the fact that buddy page is marked by _mapcount == PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE. But, _mapcount shares its memory with other fields for SLAB/SLUB when PG_slab is set, so we need to check if PG_slab is set or not before looking up _mapcount value. And we can get the order of buddy system from private field. To sum it up, the values below are required for this logic. Required values: - OFFSET(page._mapcount) - OFFSET(page.private) - NUMBER(PG_slab) - NUMBER(PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE) Changelog from v1 to v2: 1. remove SIZE(pageflags) The new logic was changed after I sent v1 patch. Accordingly, SIZE(pageflags) has been unnecessary for makedumpfile. What's makedumpfile: makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile by excluding unnecessary pages for the analysis. To distinguish unnecessary pages, makedumpfile gets the vmcoreinfo data which has the minimum debugging information only for dump filtering.

2012-01-29PM / Sleep: Introduce "late suspend" and "early resume" of devicesRafael J. Wysocki
The current device suspend/resume phases during system-wide power transitions appear to be insufficient for some platforms that want to use the same callback routines for saving device states and related operations during runtime suspend/resume as well as during system suspend/resume. In principle, they could point their .suspend_noirq() and .resume_noirq() to the same callback routines as their .runtime_suspend() and .runtime_resume(), respectively, but at least some of them require device interrupts to be enabled while the code in those routines is running. It also makes sense to have device suspend-resume callbacks that will be executed with runtime PM disabled and with device interrupts enabled in case someone needs to run some special code in that context during system-wide power transitions. Apart from this, .suspend_noirq() and .resume_noirq() were introduced as a workaround for drivers using shared interrupts and failing to prevent their interrupt handlers from accessing suspended hardware. It appears to be better not to use them for other porposes, or we may have to deal with some serious confusion (which seems to be happening already). For the above reasons, introduce new device suspend/resume phases, "late suspend" and "early resume" (and analogously for hibernation) whose callback will be executed with runtime PM disabled and with device interrupts enabled and whose callback pointers generally may point to runtime suspend/resume routines.

2012-01-12kdump: crashk_res init check for /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_sizeMichael Holzheu
Currently it is possible to set the crash_size via the sysfs /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size even if no crash kernel memory has been defined with the "crashkernel" parameter. In this case "crashk_res" is not initialized and crashk_res.start = crashk_res.end = 0. Unfortunately resource_size(&crashk_res) returns 1 in this case. This breaks the s390 implementation of crash_(un)map_reserved_pages(). To fix the problem the correct "old_size" is now calculated in crash_shrink_memory(). "old_size is set to "0" if crashk_res is not initialized. With this change crash_shrink_memory() will do nothing, when "crashk_res" is not initialized. It will return "0" for "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size" and -EINVAL for "echo [not zero] > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size". In addition to that this patch also simplifies the "ret = -EINVAL" vs. "ret = 0" logic as suggested by Simon Horman.

2012-01-12kdump: add missing RAM resource in crash_shrink_memory()Michael Holzheu
When shrinking crashkernel memory using /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size for the newly added memory no RAM resource is created at the moment. Example: $ cat /proc/iomem 00000000-bfffffff : System RAM 00000000-005b7ac3 : Kernel code 005b7ac4-009743bf : Kernel data 009bb000-00a85c33 : Kernel bss c0000000-cfffffff : Crash kernel d0000000-ffffffff : System RAM $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size $ cat /proc/iomem 00000000-bfffffff : System RAM 00000000-005b7ac3 : Kernel code 005b7ac4-009743bf : Kernel data 009bb000-00a85c33 : Kernel bss <<-- here is System RAM missing d0000000-ffffffff : System RAM One result of this bug is that the memory chunk can never be set offline using memory hotplug. With this patch I insert a new "System RAM" resource for the released memory. Then the upper example looks like the following: $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size $ cat /proc/iomem 00000000-bfffffff : System RAM 00000000-005b7ac3 : Kernel code 005b7ac4-009743bf : Kernel data 009bb000-00a85c33 : Kernel bss c0000000-cfffffff : System RAM <<-- new rescoure d0000000-ffffffff : System RAM And now I can set chunk c0000000-cfffffff offline.

2011-10-30[S390] kdump: Add infrastructure for unmapping crashkernel memoryMichael Holzheu
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.

2011-10-30[S390] kdump: Initialize vmcoreinfo note at startupMichael Holzheu
Currently the vmcoreinfo note is only initialized in case of kdump. On s390 it is possible to create kernel dumps with other dump mechanisms than kdump (e.g. via hypervisor dump or stand-alone dump tools). For those dumps it would also be desirable to include the vmcoreinfo data. To accomplish this, with this patch the vmcoreinfo ELF note is always initialized, not only in case of a (kdump) crash. On s390 we will add an ABI defined pointer at a well known address to vmcoreinfo so that dump analysis tools are able to find this information. In particular on s390 we have a tool named zgetdump. With this tool it is possible to convert dump formats on the fly using fuse. E.g. you can mount a s390 stand-alone dump as ELF dump. When this is done, the tool finds the vmcoreinfo in the stand-alone dump via the well known ABI defined address and it creates the respective VMCOREINFO ELF note in the output ELF dump. This then can be used e.g. by makedumpfile for dump filtering. No more need for a vmlinux file with debug information. So this will look like the following: $ zgetdump --mount standalone.dump -f elf /mnt $ ls /mnt dump.elf $ readelf -n /mnt/dump.elf $ ... VMCOREINFO 0x00000474 Unknown note type: (0x00000000) $ makedumpfile -c -d 31 /mnt/dump.elf dump.kdump Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
