* move die notifier handling to common codeChristoph Hellwig2007-05-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place) arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

* [PATCH] Kexec / Kdump: Unify elf note codeMagnus Damm2006-12-071-64/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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] i386 kexec: allow the kexec on panic support to compile on voyagerEric W. Biederman2006-07-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the foolish assumption that SMP implied local apics. That assumption is not-true on the Voyager subarch. This makes that dependency explicit, and allows the code to build. What gets disabled is just an optimization to get better crash dumps so the support should work if there is a kernel that will initialization on the voyager subarch under those harsh conditions. Hopefully we can figure out how to initialize apics in init_IRQ and remove the need to disable io_apics and this dependency. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* | [PATCH] x86_64: Standardize i386/x86_64 handling of NMI_VECTORKeith Owens2006-06-261-6/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | x86_64 and i386 behave inconsistently when sending an IPI on vector 2 (NMI_VECTOR). Make both behave the same, so IPI 2 is sent as NMI. The crash code was abusing send_IPI_allbutself() by passing a code instead of a vector, it only worked because crash knew about the internal code of send_IPI_allbutself(). Change crash to use NMI_VECTOR instead, and remove the comment about how crash was abusing the function. This patch is a pre-requisite for fixing the problem where sending an IPI as NMI would reboot some Dell Xeon systems. I cannot fix that problem while crash continus to abuse send_IPI_allbutself(). It also removes the inconsistency between i386 and x86_64 for NMI_VECTOR. That will simplify all the RAS code that needs to bring all the cpus to a clean stop, even when one or more cpus are spinning disabled.

* [PATCH] kdump: save registers early (inline functions)Vivek Goyal2006-01-101-44/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - If system panics then cpu register states are captured through funciton crash_get_current_regs(). This is not a inline function hence a stack frame is pushed on to the stack and then cpu register state is captured. Later this frame is popped and new frames are pushed (machine_kexec). - In theory this is not very right as we are capturing register states for a frame and that frame is no more valid. This seems to have created back trace problems for ppc64. - This patch fixes it up. The very first thing it does after entering crash_kexec() is to capture the register states. Anyway we don't want the back trace beyond crash_kexec(). crash_get_current_regs() has been made inline - crash_setup_regs() is the top architecture dependent function which should be responsible for capturing the register states as well as to do some architecture dependent tricks. For ex. fixing up ss and esp for i386. crash_setup_regs() has also been made inline to ensure no new call frame is pushed onto stack.

* [PATCH] kdump: dynamic per cpu allocation of memory for saving cpu registersVivek Goyal2006-01-101-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is dangerous to shutdown the apics in machine_crash_shutdown. With my previous patch to initialize apics in init_IRQ we should be able to boot a kernel without this. As long as we reinitialize the APICs we don't care what state they were in during bootup. This should make machine_crash_shutdown noticeably more reliable. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] kdump: Use real pt_regs from exceptionAlexander Nyberg2005-06-251-12/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Problem: Kexec on panic hangs if first kernel is booted with nmi_watchdog command line parameter. This problem occurs because kexec crash shutdown code replaces the NMI callback handler. This handler saves the cpu register states and halts the cpu. If system is booted with nmi_watchdog parameter, then crashing cpu also runs this nmi handler and halts itself. o This patch fixes the problem by keeping a track of crashing cpu and not executing the new nmi handler on crashing cpu. o There is a dependence on smp_processor_id() function which might return insane value for cpu, if cpu field of thread_info is corrupted.

* [PATCH] kexec: x86 shutdown APICs during crash_shutdownEric W. Biederman2005-06-251-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the case of a crash/panic an architecture specific function machine_crash_shutdown is called. This patch adds to the x86 machine_crash function the standard kernel code for shutting down apics. Every line of code added to that function increases the risk that we will call code after a kernel panic that is not safe. This patch should not make it to the stable kernel without a being reviewed a lot more. It is unclear how much a hardned kernel can take when it comes to misconfigured apics. So since a normal kernel has problems this patch does a clean shutdown. It is my expectation this patch will be dropped from future generations of the kexec work. But for the moment it is a crutch to keep from breaking everything.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the dangers when switching from one kernel to another is what happens to all of the other cpus that were running in the crashed kernel. In an attempt to avoid that problem this patch adds a nmi handler and attempts to shoot down the other cpus by sending them non maskable interrupts. The code then waits for 1 second or until all known cpus have stopped running and then jumps from the running kernel that has crashed to the kernel in reserved memory. The kernel spin loop is used for the delay as that should behave continue to be safe even in after a crash.
