Subject: [PATCH v10 8/8] x86/crash: Add x86 crash hotplug support
Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2022 14:17:47 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220721181747.1640-9-eric.devolder@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220721181747.1640-1-eric.devolder@oracle.com>
For x86_64, when CPU or memory is hot un/plugged, the crash
elfcorehdr, which describes the CPUs and memory in the system,
must also be updated.
When loading the crash kernel via kexec_load or kexec_file_load,
the elfcorehdr is identified at run time in
crash_core:handle_hotplug_event().
To update the elfcorehdr for x86_64, a new elfcorehdr must be
generated from the available CPUs and memory. The new elfcorehdr
is prepared into a buffer, and then installed over the top of
the existing elfcorehdr.
In the patch 'kexec: exclude elfcorehdr from the segment digest'
the need to update purgatory due to the change in elfcorehdr was
eliminated. As a result, no changes to purgatory or boot_params
(as the elfcorehdr= kernel command line parameter pointer
remains unchanged and correct) are needed, just elfcorehdr.
To accommodate a growing number of resources via hotplug, the
elfcorehdr segment must be sufficiently large enough to accommodate
changes, see the CRASH_MAX_MEMORY_RANGES configure item.
With this change, crash hotplug for kexec_file_load syscall
is supported. The kexec_load is also supported, but also
requires a corresponding change to userspace kexec-tools.
