[RESEND PATCH v5 09/11] ppc64/kexec_file: prepare elfcore header for crashing kernel

Hari Bathini hbathini at linux.ibm.com
Mon Jul 27 05:39:47 AEST 2020


Prepare elf headers for the crashing kernel's core file using
crash_prepare_elf64_headers() and pass on this info to kdump
kernel by updating its command line with elfcorehdr parameter.
Also, add elfcorehdr location to reserve map to avoid it from
being stomped on while booting.

Tested-by: Pingfan Liu <piliu at redhat.com>
Reviewed-by: Thiago Jung Bauermann <bauerman at linux.ibm.com>
---

v4 -> v5:
* Unchanged. Added Reviewed-by tag from Thiago.

v3 -> v4:
* Added a FIXME tag to indicate issue in adding opal/rtas regions to
  core image.
* Folded prepare_elf_headers() function into load_elfcorehdr_segment().

v2 -> v3:
* Unchanged. Added Tested-by tag from Pingfan.

v1 -> v2:
* Tried merging adjacent memory ranges on hitting maximum ranges limit
  to reduce reallocations for memory ranges and also, minimize PT_LOAD
  segments for elfcore.
* Updated add_rtas_mem_range() & add_opal_mem_range() callsites based on
  the new prototype for these functions.
