To support crash hotplug, a mechanism is needed to update the crash
elfcorehdr upon CPU or memory changes (eg. hot un/plug or off/
onlining).
To track CPU changes, callbacks are registered with the cpuhp
mechanism via cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls(CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN). The
crash hotplug elfcorehdr update has no explicit ordering requirement
(relative to other cpuhp states), so meets the criteria for
utilizing CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN. CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN is a dynamic
state and avoids the need to introduce a new state for crash
hotplug. Also, this is the last state in the PREPARE group, just
prior to the STARTING group, which is very close to the CPU
starting up in an plug/online situation, or stopping in a unplug/
offline situation. This minimizes the window of time during an
actual plug/online or unplug/offline situation in which the
elfcorehdr would be inaccurate.
Note, that when a CPU is being unplugged/offlined, the CPU is still
in the foreach_present_cpu() during the regeneration of the
elfcorehdr. Thus there is a need to explicitly check and exclude
the soon-to-be offlined CPU. See patch 'kexec: exclude hot remove
cpu from elfcorehdr notes'.
To track memory changes, a notifier is registered to capture the
memblock MEM_ONLINE and MEM_OFFLINE events via register_memory_notifier().
The cpu callbacks and memory notifiers invoke handle_hotplug_event()
which performs needed tasks and then dispatches the event to the
architecture specific arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event() to update the
elfcorehdr with the current state of CPUs and memory. During the
process, the kexec_lock is held.
