When kexec is utilized in a Xen environment, it has an explicit
run-time dependency on libxenctrl.so. This dependency occurs
during the configure stage and when building kexec-tools.
When kexec is utilized in a non-Xen environment (either bare
metal or KVM), the configure and build of kexec-tools omits
any reference to libxenctrl.so.
Thus today it is not currently possible to configure and build
a *single* kexec that will work in *both* Xen and non-Xen
environments, unless the libxenctrl.so is *always* present.
For example, a kexec configured for Xen in a Xen environment:
# ldd build/sbin/kexec
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007ffdeba5c000)
libxenctrl.so.4.4 => /usr/lib64/libxenctrl.so.4.4 (0x00000038d8000000)
libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00000038d6c00000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00000038d6000000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x00000038d6400000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00000038d6800000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x000055e9f8c6c000)
# build/sbin/kexec -v
kexec-tools 2.0.16
However, the *same* kexec executable fails in a non-Xen environment:
# copy xen kexec to .
# ldd ./kexec
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fffa9da7000)
libxenctrl.so.4.4 => not found
liblzma.so.0 => /usr/lib64/liblzma.so.0 (0x0000003014e00000)
libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x000000300ea00000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x000000300de00000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x000000300e200000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000558cc786c000)
# ./kexec -v
./kexec: error while loading shared libraries:
libxenctrl.so.4.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
At Oracle we "workaround" this by having two kexec-tools packages,
one for Xen and another for non-Xen environments. At Oracle, the
desire is to offer a single kexec-tools package that works in either
environment. To achieve this, kexec-tools would either have to ship
with libxenctrl.so (which we have deemed as unacceptable), or we can
make kexec perform run-time linking against libxenctrl.so.
This patch is one possible way to alleviate the explicit run-time
dependency on libxenctrl.so. This implementation utilizes a set of
macros to wrap calls into libxenctrl.so so that the library can
instead be dlopen() and obtain the function via dlsym() and then
make the call. The advantage of this implementation is that it
requires few changes to the existing kexec-tools code. The dis-
advantage is that it uses macros to remap libxenctrl functions
and do work under the hood.
Another possible implementation worth considering is the approach
taken by libvmi. Reference the following file:
https://github.com/libvmi/libvmi/blob/master/libvmi/driver/xen/libxc_wrapper.h
The libxc_wrapper_t structure definition that starts at line ~33
has members that are function pointers into libxenctrl.so. This
structure is populated once and then later referenced/dereferenced
by the callers of libxenctrl.so members. The advantage of this
implementation is it is more explicit in managing the use of
libxenctrl.so and its versions, but the disadvantage is it would
require touching more of the kexec-tools code.
The following is a list libxenctrl members utilized by kexec:
Functions:
xc_interface_open
xc_kexec_get_range
xc_interface_close
xc_kexec_get_range
xc_interface_open
xc_get_max_cpus
xc_kexec_get_range
xc_version
xc_kexec_exec
xc_kexec_status
xc_kexec_unload
xc_hypercall_buffer_array_create
xc__hypercall_buffer_array_alloc
xc_hypercall_buffer_array_destroy
xc_kexec_load
xc_get_machine_memory_map
Data:
xc__hypercall_buffer_HYPERCALL_BUFFER_NULL
These were identified by configuring and building kexec-tools
with Xen support, but omitting the -lxenctrl from the LDFLAGS
in the Makefile for an x86_64 build.
The above libxenctrl members were referenced via these source
files.
kexec/crashdump-xen.c
kexec/kexec-xen.c
kexec/arch/i386/kexec-x86-common.c
kexec/arch/i386/crashdump-x86.c
This patch provides a wrapper around the calls to the above
functions in libxenctrl.so. Every libxenctrl call must pass a
xc_interface which it obtains from xc_interface_open().
So the existing code is already structured in a manner that
facilitates graceful dlopen()'ing of the libxenctrl.so and
the subsequent dlsym() of the required member.
The patch creates a wrapper function around xc_interface_open()
and xc_interface_close() to perform the dlopen() and dlclose().
For the remaining xc_ functions, this patch defines a macro
of the same name which performs the dlsym() and then invokes
the function. See the _xc_call() macro for details.
There was one data item in libxenctrl.so that presented a
unique problem, HYPERCALL_BUFFER_NULL. It was only utilized
once, as
set_xen_guest_handle(xen_segs[s].buf.h, HYPERCALL_BUFFER_NULL);
I tried a variety of techniques but could not find a general
macro-type solution without modifying xenctrl.h. So the
solution was to declare a local HYPERCALL_BUFFER_NULL, and
this appears to work. I admit I am not familiar with libxenctrl
to state if this is a satisfactory workaround, so feedback
here welcome. I can state that this allows kexec to load/unload/kexec
on Xen and non-Xen environments that I've tested without issue.
With this patch applied, kexec-tools can be built with Xen
support and yet there is no explicit run-time dependency on
libxenctrl.so. Thus it can also be deployed in non-Xen
environments where libxenctrl.so is not installed.
# ldd build/sbin/kexec
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fff7dbcd000)
liblzma.so.0 => /usr/lib64/liblzma.so.0 (0x00000038d9000000)
libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00000038d6c00000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x00000038d6400000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00000038d6000000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00000038d6800000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000562dc0c14000)
# build/sbin/kexec -v
kexec-tools 2.0.16
Currently this feature is enabled with the following:
./configure --with-xen-dl --with-xen=no
This is a bit clunky. I welcome feedback such as better names
and/or usage of --with, as well as if we might make this feature
the default.

I would do it in a bit different way. If somebody specifies --with-xen
then kexec-tools should build as usual. However, if somebody specifies
with-xen-dl itself or --with-xen-dl and --with-xen then --with-xen-dl
should have a precedence.

Please call AC_CHECK_LIB() from AC_CHECK_HEADER(). You can find more details
if you take a look at zlib, lzma and even xenctrl config in configure.ac.

Just "void *xc_dlhandle;". Compiler will do work for you.

static?

I would prefer __xc_interface_open() instead of _xc_interface_open()
(two underscores at the beginning of the function). Same applies to

Too long line. Please try to not exceed 80 characters.
> +#define _xc_data(DTYPE, NAME) ({ DTYPE *value = (DTYPE *)dlsym(xc_dlhandle, #NAME); value; } )
I would export e.g. __xc_dlsym(const char *symbol) which calls
dlsym(xc_dlhandle, symbol). Then you can make xc_dlhandle static.
Hmmm... xc_dlhandle -> xc_dl_handle -> xc_dlh or even xdlh?

Could you try to make this more readable? Alignment, line wraps
if needed, etc. And of course too long lines in many places...
Really kexec-tools use all of them?

Daniel,
Thanks for the feedback, see responses inline below.
I've posted v3 of the patch.

I have cleaned this up, the previous ---with-xen=no or --with-xen=yes
are preserved and I added --with-xen=dl for this new "mode".

Done. I also made some slight changes to make this more sane and
maintainable.

This I can not do since it results in a compiler warning about use of an
uninitialized variable.

The previous two comments result in a slight functional change to the
handling of NULL return values in this function that would break it.

I could do this, but do note that this type is only utilized once and is
for the express purpose of this one function. It seems better to leave
it in scope, but if that is unacceptable I will move it.

This I can not do as these are used to create in-scope expression
evaluation statements with each instance having unique types. At one
point in time I had explicit wrapper functions for each xc_*() where I
did as you suggest, but that created alot of new code that was very
prone to typos and a maintenance burden. The result was this technique...
