[RFC PATCH v5 5/9] fadump: Convert firmware-assisted cpu state dump data into elf notes.
Mahesh J Salgaonkar

Wed Nov 16 02:14:03 EST 2011
From: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh at linux.vnet.ibm.com>
When registered for firmware assisted dump on powerpc, firmware preserves
the registers for the active CPUs during a system crash. This patch reads
the cpu register data stored in Firmware-assisted dump format (except for
crashing cpu) and converts it into elf notes and updates the PT_NOTE program
header accordingly. The exact register state for crashing cpu is saved to
fadump crash info structure in scratch area during crash_fadump() and read
during second kernel boot.
Change in v5:
- Added 'fadump_' prefix to all static function defined.
Change in v4:
- Fixes a issue where memblock_free() is invoked from build_cpu_notes()
function during error_out path. Invoke cpu_notes_buf_free() in error_out
path instead of memblock_free().
Change in v2:
- Moved the crash_fadump() invocation from generic code to panic notifier.
- Introduced cpu_notes_buf_alloc() function to allocate cpu notes buffer
using get_free_pages(). The reason is, with the use of subsys_initcall
the setup_fadump() is now called after mem_init(). Hence use of
get_free_pages() to allocate memory is more approriate then using
memblock_alloc().
