* pstore: pass allocated memory region back to callerKees Cook2011-11-171-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The buf_lock cannot be held while populating the inodes, so make the backend pass forward an allocated and filled buffer instead. This solves the following backtrace. The effect is that "buf" is only ever used to notify the backends that something was written to it, and shouldn't be used in the read path. To replace the buf_lock during the read path, isolate the open/read/close loop with a separate mutex to maintain serialized access to the backend. Note that is is up to the pstore backend to cope if the (*write)() path is called in the middle of the read path.

* pstore: change mutex locking to spin_locksDon Zickus2011-08-161-7/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pstore was using mutex locking to protect read/write access to the backend plug-ins. This causes problems when pstore is executed in an NMI context through panic() -> kmsg_dump(). This patch changes the mutex to a spin_lock_irqsave then also checks to see if we are in an NMI context. If we are in an NMI and can't get the lock, just print a message stating that and blow by the locking. All this is probably a hack around the bigger locking problem but it solves my current situation of trying to sleep in an NMI context. Tested by loading the lkdtm module and executing a HARDLOCKUP which will cause the machine to panic inside the nmi handler.

* pstore: defer inserting OOPS entries into pstoreLuck, Tony2011-08-163-14/+82
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Life is simple for all the kernel terminating types of kmsg_dump call backs - pstore just saves the tail end of the console log. But for "oops" the situation is more complex - the kernel may carry on running (possibly for ever). So we'd like to make the logged copy of the oops appear in the pstore filesystem - so that the user has a handle to clear the entry from the persistent backing store (if we don't, the store may fill with "oops" entries (that are also safely stashed in /var/log/messages) leaving no space for real errors. Current code calls pstore_mkfile() immediately. But this may not be safe. The oops could have happened with arbitrary locks held, or in interrupt or NMI context. So allocating memory and calling into generic filesystem code seems unwise. This patch defers making the entry appear. At the time of the oops, we merely set a flag "pstore_new_entry" noting that a new entry has been added. A periodic timer checks once a minute to see if the flag is set - if so, it schedules a work queue to rescan the backing store and make all new entries appear in the pstore filesystem.

* Some fixes for pstoreTony Luck2011-03-171-60/+56
| | | | | | | | | | 1) Change from ->get_sb() to ->mount() 2) Use mount_single() instead of mount_nodev() 3) Pulled in ramfs_get_inode() & trimmed to what I need for pstore 4) Drop the ugly pstore_writefile() Just save data using kmalloc() and provide a pstore_file_read() that uses simple_read_from_buffer().

* pstore: new filesystem interface to platform persistent storageTony Luck2010-12-285-0/+509
Some platforms have a small amount of non-volatile storage that can be used to store information useful to diagnose the cause of a system crash. This is the generic part of a file system interface that presents information from the crash as a series of files in /dev/pstore. Once the information has been seen, the underlying storage is freed by deleting the files. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
