Hello,
[ Andrew, you might want to wait until the kexec maintainers say whether
they agree with patch 4 before picking up this version. ]
v10 addresses two requests from Michael Ellerman: build the
purgatory as a Position Independent Executable binary to reduce the
number of relocation types that we have to deal with, and remove code
that is not strictly necessary from the purgatory.
The first objective is made possible by patch 4, which is new in this
version and adds the support in generic code that arch-specific code
needs if it wants to use a PIE purgatory. Now it's not necessary
anymore to refactor code in module_64.c to reuse its implementation
of the relocations.
I also added a script which checks purgatory.ro and warns if it has
a relocation type that is not supported.
The second objective is met by removing code for printing messages
to the console. Everything else that is in the purgatory is to implement
the checksum verification of the kexec image.
The gory details are in the detailed changelog at the end of this email.
Original cover letter:
This patch series implements the kexec_file_load system call on PowerPC.
This system call moves the reading of the kernel, initrd and the device tree
from the userspace kexec tool to the kernel. This is needed if you want to
do one or both of the following:
1. only allow loading of signed kernels.
2. "measure" (i.e., record the hashes of) the kernel, initrd, kernel
command line and other boot inputs for the Integrity Measurement
Architecture subsystem.
The above are the functions kexec already has built into kexec_file_load.
Yesterday I posted a set of patches which allows a third feature:
3. have IMA pass-on its event log (where integrity measurements are
registered) accross kexec to the second kernel, so that the event
history is preserved.
Because OpenPower uses an intermediary Linux instance as a boot loader
(skiroot), feature 1 is needed to implement secure boot for the platform,
while features 2 and 3 are needed to implement trusted boot.
This patch series starts by removing an x86 assumption from kexec_file:
kexec_add_buffer uses iomem to find reserved memory ranges, but PowerPC
uses the memblock subsystem. A hook is added so that each arch can
specify how memory ranges can be found.
Also, the memory-walking logic in kexec_add_buffer is useful in this
implementation to find a free area for the purgatory's stack, so the
next patch moves that logic to kexec_locate_mem_hole.
The kexec_file_load system call needs to apply relocations to the
purgatory but adding code for that would duplicate functionality with
the module loading mechanism, which also needs to apply relocations to
the kernel modules. Therefore, this patch series factors out the module
relocation code so that it can be shared.
One thing that is still missing is crashkernel support, which I intend
to submit shortly. For now, arch_kexec_kernel_image_probe rejects crash
kernels.
This code is based on kexec-tools, but with many modifications to adapt
it to the kernel environment and facilities. Except the purgatory,
which only has minimal changes.
