[PATCH v15 00/20] arm64 kexec kernel patches v15

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series adds the core support for kexec re-boot and kdump on ARM64.  This
version of the series combines Takahiro's kdump patches with my kexec patches.
Please consider all patches for inclusion.

To load a second stage kernel and execute a kexec re-boot or to work with kdump
on ARM64 systems a series of patches to kexec-tools [2], which have not yet been
merged upstream, are needed.  Please update to the latest if you have been using
an older version.

To examine vmcore (/proc/vmcore), you should use
  - gdb v7.7 or later
  - crash v7.1.1 or later

Changes for v15 (Mar 14, 2016, 22m):

  o Rebase to Linux-4.5.
  o Remove DEBUG conditional in 'Add pr_debug output'.

Changes for v14 (Mar 4, 2016, 22m):

  o Rebase to Linux-4.5-rc6.
  o Rename setup_mm_for_reboot to cpu_install_idmap.
  o kdump: leave non-boot cpus online at crash dump
    As we don't have to make non-boot (crashed) cpus offline at crash dump,
    this patch adds a variant of smp_send_stop().
  o kdump: use a new device-tree property, "linux,elfcorehdr", instead of
    traditional "elfcorehdr=" kernel parameter
  o limit memory regions based on DT property, "usable-memory", instead of
    "mem=" kernel parameter
  o kdump: fix a build error when !CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE
  o kvm: use generic kvm_call_hyp() interface instead of kvm_cpu_reset()
  o kvm: initialize only a primary cpu at init_hyp_mode()

Changes for v13 (Jan 15, 2016, 20m):

  o Rebase to Linux-4.4.
  o Remove align directive from cpu_reset.c.
  o Use inline C wrapper for cpu_soft_restart.
  o Revert the new image d-cache flush changes of v10.
  o Add SCTLR cleanup patch.
  o Change pr_devel to pr_debug.
  o Call flush_icache_range() for reboot_code_buffer.
  o Add .ltorg directive to arm64_relocate_new_kernel.
  o Make new asm macro copy_page.
  o Change cache maintenence from inner-shareable to non-shareable.
  o Rename KEXEC_ARCH_ARM64 to KEXEC_ARCH_AARCH64.

  o arm64: kvm: allows kvm cpu hotplug
    - remove some garbage code from kvm_host.h
  o arm64: kdump: reserve memory for crash dump kernel
    - change CONFIG_KEXEC to CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE
    - don't panic on crash kernel alloc failure
      (thanks to Mark Salter, RH)
  o arm64: kdump: implement machine_crash_shutdown()
    - change "boot/non-boot cpu" to "crashing/non-crashing cpu"
    - introduce is_in_crash_kexec() for readability
    - re-introduce machine_kexec_mask_interrupts(), as arch/arm has,
      to discard unexpected interrupts
    - call crash_save_cpu() before making cpus offline to avoid a possible race
      (thanks to Pratyush Anand/Mark Salter, RH)
  o arm64: kdump: update a kernel doc
    - clarify that we support "Image" format as well as vmlinux in kdump.txt
  o arm64: kdump: relax BUG_ON() if more than one cpus are still active
    - change a warning message at the failure of shooting down non-crahsing cpus

Changes for v12 (Nov 24, 2015, 18m):

  o No changes, rebase to Linux-4.4-rc2.

Changes for v11 (Nov 6, 2015, 18m):

  o Rebase to Linux-4.3.
  o Move the new image d-cache flush from arm64_relocate_new_kernel to machine_kexec.
  o Pass values to arm64_relocate_new_kernel in registers, not in global variables.
  o Fixups to setting the sctlr_el1 and sctlr_el2 flags.

Changes for v10 (Oct 18, 2015, 17m):

  o Rebase to Linux-4.3-rc6.
  o Move tcr_set_idmap_t0sz to assembler.h.
  o Add back simplified cpu_reset routines.
  o Combine kexec + kdump patches.

Changes for v9 (Apr 7, 2015, 11m):

  o Use new upstream flag IND_FLAGS.

Changes for v8 (Mar 19, 2015, 10m):

  o Rebase to Linux-4.0-rc4.
  o Re-boot using purgatory only.

  o Rebase to Linux-3.17-rc4.
  o Move macros from proc-macros.S to assembler.h.
  o Convert hcalls to use ISS field.
  o Add new hcall HVC_CALL_FUNC.
  o Add EL2 switch to soft_restart.

First submission v1 (May 13, 2014):

  o Based on Linux-3.15-rc4.
