>     The RMO region can only exist in '/memory@0' node in the device tree.

>     With this code in place, kexec on kexec fails. The first kexec
>     works because '/memory@0' node is read after drconf memory and
>     that correctly sets rmo_base and rmo_top from '/memory@0' node.
>     While in the kexec'ed kernel, '/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory'
>     is read after '/memory@xxx' nodes and this incorrectly sets both

>     
>     - A simple hibernation implementation without ACPI support. You can
>       kexec a hibernating kernel, save the memory image of original system
>       and shutdown the system. When resuming, you restore the memory image
>       of original system via ordinary kexec load then jump back.
>     
>     - Kernel/system debug through making system snapshot. You can make
>       system snapshot with kexec/kdump, jump back, do some thing and make
>       another system snapshot.
>     
>     - Cooperative multi-kernel/system. With kexec jump, you can switch
>       between several kernels/systems quickly without boot process except
>       the first time. This appears like swap a whole kernel/system out/in.
>     
>     - A general method to call program in physical mode (paging turning
>       off). This can be used to invoke BIOS code under Linux.

[ANNOUNCE] kexec-tools 2.0.2

[Simon Horman]

[ repost: the first attempt was a reply to nothing ]

Hi all,

I am happy to announce the release of kexec-tools 2.0.2.
There were no changes between 2.0.2-rc2 and 2.0.2.

The release can be downloaded from kernel.org:

http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools-2.0.2.tar.gz
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kexec/

    kexec: extend for large cpu count and memory
    
    The MAX_MEMORY_RANGES of 64 is too small for a very large NUMA machine.
    (A 512 processor SGI UV, for example.)
    
    And fix a temporary workaround (hack) in load_crashdump_segments() that
    assumes that 16k is sufficient for the size of the crashdump elf header.
    This is too small for a machine with a large cpu count. A PT_NOTE is created
    in the elf header for each cpu.

commit 436f1376e1621aeba54d8253244955df4865d5e9

Date:   Fri May 14 14:15:09 2010 +1000

    kexec-tools: Fix option/argument parsing
    
    The argument parsing is currently a bit broken as main()'s getopt_long()
    knows nothing about either the architecture-specific options or, even
    more specifically, the architecture-and-loader-specific options.
    
    This patch introduces new #defines for all architectures,
    KEXEC_ALL_OPTIONS and KEXEC_ALL_OPT_STR.  These contain all possible
    options for a given build, and the getopt_long() passes in main() and
    arch_process_options() will now recognise arch- and loader-specific
    options; these will not be re-ordered in argv[], there is no confusion
    over which argv[] entry is the kernel filename, and using '--opt=foo' and
    '--opt foo' both work.
    
    All architectures have command line options (and #define OPT_BLAHs)
    consolidated into their include/arch/option.h files.  x86_64 builds
    parts of i386/ as well, so now both share a single option.h file (with
    a symlink).

    kexec: implement ARM crashdump support
    
    Implement support for loading dump capture kernels for ARM architecture. ARM
    doesn't need any backup memory regions so only elfcore header is allocated from
    the top of the reserved memory region. Only zImages are supported.
    
    The dump capture kernel needs to be loaded to physical address corresponding to
    the memory region reserved with 'crashkernel=size@start' kernel command line
    parameter.

    This function is used by ELF crashdump code which prepares crash memory headers
    for the dump capture kernel. Most architecture can use default version which
    just adds PAGE_OFFSET to the virtual address but some architectures might need
    some special handling.

    kexec-tools, ppc64: Fix segfault parsing DR memory property
    
    add_dyn_reconf_usable_mem_property() iterates over memory spans
    in /ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory/ibm,dynamic-memory and intersects
    these with usablemem_rgns ranges.  In doing so it used an unchecked
    fixed-size array which will overrun on machines with lots of LMBs.
    
    This patch removes the fixed-sized arrays from
    add_dyn_reconf_usable_mem_property() and add_usable_mem_property(), in lieu of
    malloc/realloc/free.

    powerpc new toolchains fix (crt.S)
    
    Linker does not provide some vital functions when building freestanding
    applications with a new toolchain, so we have to provide our own CRT.
    
    p.s.
    Without the CRT we won't see any build errors (since the purgatory is
    linked with --no-undefined), but the purgatory code won't work,
    'kexec -e' will just hang the board.
    
    I added option to configure to keep code buildable for old toolchais.
    But there should be way to do this automatically.

    These architectures don't have any architecture-specific options
    (note: distinct from loader options, which are more specific), yet
    their arch_process_options() functions contain getopts_long() calls
    followed by no argument processing.  The code doesn't do anything,

    kexec-tools, ppc64: Fix segfault on parsing of large device trees.
    
    ppc64's fs2dt used to use a fixed-size array into which the device tree
    was parsed.  There was no bounds checking, so with a large device tree other
    heap data ended up getting stomped -- SIGSEGV time.
    
    This patch adds a function, 'dt_reserve', to check whether there's enough space
    left prior to writing data to the array.  If not, the array is realloced.

    some kexec MIPS improvements
    
    -  using simple   mips* ) in configure.ac to make it compilable on mips2
       and mips64
    - remove kexec/arch/mips/mips-setup-simple.S which prepares cmdline for
      new kernel, it is better to move this work to kernel code. BTW this code was
      compilable only on o32 because of t4 is not defined on 64-64 or n32 MIPS ABIs.
    - simple put cmdline as string, kernel code should catch cmdline like this
    
    int board_kexec_prepare(struct kimage *image)
    {
        int i;
        char *bootloader = "kexec";
        board_boot_desc_ptr->argc = 0;
        for(i=0;i<image->nr_segments;i++)
        {
            printk("segment %d
            if (!strncmp(bootloader, (char*)image->segment[i].buf,
                    strlen(bootloader)))
            {
                /*
                 * convert command line string to array
                 * of parameters (as bootloader does).
                 */
                int argc = 0, offt;
                char *str = (char *)image->segment[i].buf;
                char *ptr = strchr(str, ' ');
                while (ptr && (ARGV_MAX_ARGS > argc)) {
                    *ptr = '\0';
                    if (ptr[1] != ' ') {
                        offt = (int)(ptr - str + 1);
                        boot_desc_ptr->argv[argc] =
                            image->segment[i].mem + offt;
                        argc++;
                    }
                    ptr = strchr(ptr + 1, ' ');
                }
                boot_desc_ptr->argc = argc;
                break;
            }
        }
       Keep it as string make code simple and more readable.
    
    - add crashdump support
    - do not redefine syscalls numbers if they defined in system
      remove fixups for /proc/iomem. If your board provides wrong /proc/iomem please
      fix kernel, or at least you local version of kexec. No need to support it in
      main line. At least add option --fake-iomem
    - some minor fixes

    powerpc32: add support for uImage
    
    On PowerPC the uImage usually contains the compressed "final" kernel and
    not a tiny wrapper which relocates itself und uncomprosses the final
    kernel to its final position. Instead we uncompress the gzip image and
    put it the its final position.

    powerpc32: add support to fixup the dtb
    
    A few device nodes are dynamically determined by the bootloader (MAC address,
    memory size, ..) and are not part of the device tree. The kernel command line
    is also read from dtb and usually not part of the device tree.
    With the libfdt it is now easy to add/replace nodes in the device tree.
    The user may specify "--reuse-node=/memory/reg" to update the memory/reg
    node to what ever is now. This requires the kernel to export the device
    tree via the procfs in /proc/device-tree.

    powerpc: dtb and purgatory support for ppc32
    
    Some code dtb scanning & filling has been borrowed from ppc64.
    The old behavior is still available if compiled with GameCube,
    other PowerPC platform use the can purgatory and specify a new
    dtb.
    Booting a self contained elf image (incl. dtb / without the need
    for a bd sturct or the like) can be booted. The dtb support is currently
    optional. That means if the elf image does not contain a dtb file then
    the user has to supply a complete dtb (including mem size, command line,
    bus freq., mac addr, ...)

    slurpfile: use lseek() on character nodes instead of fstat() for file size
    
    fstat() is used to determine the filesize before read() and
    it requires a filesystem. That means that it can not be used
    on character nodes. This makes it impossible to obtains the
    kernel from a char node like mtd or more likely ubi.
    We can't use this in every case because files in /proc don't
    support lseek(). This is required by the powerpc part to read
    some device-tree entries.

    kexec/kdump: RMO region does not exist in drconf memory
    
    The RMO region can only exist in '/memory@0' node in the device tree.
    While adding support for '/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory' in
    kexec-tools, I incorrectly extended the code of '/memory@' nodes to
    drconf memory with the assumption that what applies to '/memory@'
    nodes would also apply to drconf memory. This is incorrect and
    hence removing the code from kexec-tools now.
    
    With this code in place, kexec on kexec fails. The first kexec
    works because '/memory@0' node is read after drconf memory and
    that correctly sets rmo_base and rmo_top from '/memory@0' node.
    While in the kexec'ed kernel, '/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory'
    is read after '/memory@xxx' nodes and this incorrectly sets both
    rmo_base and rmo_top from drconf memory.
    
    Sorry for introducing this bug.

    x86_64: use correct PAGE_OFFSET
    
    This fixes a bug when using gdb with vmcore
    as explained by Dave Anderson:
    
    The kexec/arch/x86_64/crashdump-x86_64.h file contains a
    stale PAGE_OFFSET value.  In 2.6.27 it was changed from
    0xffff810000000000UL to 0xffff880000000000UL.  This is
    only a problem when using gdb with the vmlinux/vmcore
    pair, because gdb relies upon the PT_LOAD segment's p_vaddr
    values in the ELF header to be correct.

    Fix --reuse-cmdline so it is usable.
    
    A colleague of mine implemented kdump and it used --reuse-cmdline
    with some rather interesting and unexpected results.
    
    Update the getopt specification so that --reuse-cmdline does not
    attempt to take an argument that it will not use.
    
    Update the processing of --append so that --reuse-cmdline followed
    by --append actually appends the parameters specified by --reuse-cmdline.

    kexec: Move the uImage header to a better place.
    
    This is a completely generic header for uImage support and has no
    place being hidden away in an architecture directory. Move it up
    to the top-level include so that other architectures can trivially
    tie in uImage support, too.

    kexec jump support for x86_64
    
    x86_64 specific support, including crash memory range and purgatory setup.
    Corresponding kernel support has been merged already.
    
    Together with the kexec jump features in Linux kernel, kexec jump can
    be used for following:
    
    - A simple hibernation implementation without ACPI support. You can
      kexec a hibernating kernel, save the memory image of original system
      and shutdown the system. When resuming, you restore the memory image
      of original system via ordinary kexec load then jump back.
    
    - Kernel/system debug through making system snapshot. You can make
      system snapshot with kexec/kdump, jump back, do some thing and make
      another system snapshot.
    
    - Cooperative multi-kernel/system. With kexec jump, you can switch
      between several kernels/systems quickly without boot process except
      the first time. This appears like swap a whole kernel/system out/in.
    
    - A general method to call program in physical mode (paging turning
      off). This can be used to invoke BIOS code under Linux.

    lzma: Move the bulk of kexec-lzma.h into lzma.c
    
    There isn't any need for anything in kexec-lzma.h other
    than a declaration of zlib_decompress_file().
    
    Other being cleaner it also fixes a build problem when
    lzma support isn't being compiled in.
    
    $ make all
    i686-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -Wall -Wextra -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I/home/horms/local/opt/crosstool/i686/gcc-3.4.5-glibc-2.3.6/i686-unknown-linux-gnu/include -I./include -I./util_lib/include -Iinclude/ -I./kexec/arch/i386/include  -c

    kexec/kexec.c: In function `locate_hole':
    kexec/kexec.c:203: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned
    
    It ought to be possible to just provide a stub for zlib_decompress_file()
    in kexec-lzma.h and not compile lzma.c at all in the case where
    lzma support isn't being compiled in. However I see no obvious way
    to do this with the existing build system. So I'd like to deal
    with that as a separate possible change.
    
    Changes as suggested by Eric W. Biederman.

    add support for loading lzma compressed kernels
    
    This patch allows one to load a lzma compressed kernel using kexec -l.
    As I wanted the lzma code to be very similar to the existing
    zlib slurp_decompress I took lzread and associated routines
    from the cpio lzma support. Tested on my x86 laptop using the
    following commands:
    
    lzma e bzImage bzImage.lzma
    kexec -l bzImage.lzma
    
    Having lzma support is particularly useful on some embedded
    systems on which we have the kernel already lzma compressed
    and available on a mtd partition.

    arm: fix architecture detection
    
    There are many variants of arm and it seems to be impractical to
    add them all to the arches array. Instead just match on the
    leading "arm" portion of the utsname.
    
    I have made this specific to arm for now, as I'm not sure what
    fallout might occur if it was made more generic. e.g. arch ppc
    matching utsname ppc64 is a concern.
    
    Based on variants of this patch submitted by Andrea Adami and
    Marc Andre Tanner, and feedback from Magnus Damm.

    autoconf 2.64 redefined AC_MSG_ERROR and now a ";" is required at the
    end of AC_MSG_ERROR macro invocation in configure.ac. Absence of this
    ";" causes an "unexpected end of file" message when configure script

    Increase kernel text size for x86_64
    
    Hi all,
    
    I cannot load a x86_64 kernel with kexec on 2.6.31; the error message is:
    
    Can't find kernel text map area from kcore
    Cannot load /boot/vmlinuz
    
    Digging through the source I found a mismatch between the assumed
    kernel text size; kexec has:
    
    #define KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE  (40UL*1024*1024)
    
    but on the kernel side we have:
    
    include/asm/page_64_types.h:
    #define KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE   (512 * 1024 * 1024)
    
    And, indeed, changing the definition in kexec-tools to the kernel one
    fixed the problem.
    
    Not sure if this has been reported before, if so please ignore
    the noise.
    
    Cheers,
    
    Hannes

>     The RMO region can only exist in '/memory@0' node in the device tree.
>     While adding support for '/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory' in
>     kexec-tools, I incorrectly extended the code of '/memory@' nodes to
>     drconf memory with the assumption that what applies to '/memory@'

>     With this code in place, kexec on kexec fails. The first kexec
>     works because '/memory@0' node is read after drconf memory and
>     that correctly sets rmo_base and rmo_top from '/memory@0' node.
>     While in the kexec'ed kernel, '/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory'
>     is read after '/memory@xxx' nodes and this incorrectly sets both
>     rmo_base and rmo_top from drconf memory.

Simon,

Could you fix the permissions on the tar files. Trying to download
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools-2.0.2.tar.gz
results in "Forbidden
You don't have permission to
access /pub/linux/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools-2.0.2.tar.gz on this
server."
