For fadump to work successfully there should not be any holes in reserved
memory ranges where kernel has asked firmware to move the content of old
kernel memory in event of crash. Now that fadump uses CMA for reserved
area, this memory area is now not protected from hot-remove operations
unless it is cma allocated. Hence, fadump service can fail to re-register
after the hot-remove operation, if hot-removed memory belongs to fadump
reserved region. To avoid this make sure that memory from fadump reserved
area is not hot-removable if fadump is registered.
However, if user still wants to remove that memory, he can do so by
manually stopping fadump service before hot-remove operation.

One of the primary issues with Firmware Assisted Dump (fadump) on Power
is that it needs a large amount of memory to be reserved. On large
systems with TeraBytes of memory, this reservation can be quite
significant.
In some cases, fadump fails if the memory reserved is insufficient, or
if the reserved memory was DLPAR hot-removed.
In the normal case, post reboot, the preserved memory is filtered to
extract only relevant areas of interest using the makedumpfile tool.
While the tool provides flexibility to determine what needs to be part
of the dump and what memory to filter out, all supported distributions
default this to "Capture only kernel data and nothing else".
We take advantage of this default and the Linux kernel's Contiguous
Memory Allocator (CMA) to fundamentally change the memory reservation
model for fadump.
Instead of setting aside a significant chunk of memory nobody can use,
this patch uses CMA instead, to reserve a significant chunk of memory
that the kernel is prevented from using (due to MIGRATE_CMA), but
applications are free to use it. With this fadump will still be able
to capture all of the kernel memory and most of the user space memory
except the user pages that were present in CMA region.
Essentially, on a P9 LPAR with 2 cores, 8GB RAM and current upstream:
[root@zzxx-yy10 ~]# free -m
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 7557 193 6822 12 541 6725
Swap: 4095 0 4095
With this patch:
[root@zzxx-yy10 ~]# free -m
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 8133 194 7464 12 475 7338
Swap: 4095 0 4095
Changes made here are completely transparent to how fadump has
traditionally worked.
Thanks to Aneesh Kumar and Anshuman Khandual for helping us understand
CMA and its usage.

Crash memory ranges is an array of memory ranges of the crashing kernel
to be exported as a dump via /proc/vmcore file. The size of the array
is set based on INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS, which works alright in most cases
where memblock memory regions count is less than INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS
value. But this count can grow beyond INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS value since
commit 142b45a72e22 ("memblock: Add array resizing support").
On large memory systems with a few DLPAR operations, the memblock memory
regions count could be larger than INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS value. On such
systems, registering fadump results in crash or other system failures

There are quite a few machine check exceptions that can be caused by
kernel bugs. To make debugging easier, use the kernel crash path in
cases of synchronous machine checks that occur in kernel mode, if that
would not result in the machine going straight to panic or crash dump.
There is a downside here that die()ing the process in kernel mode can
still leave the system unstable. panic_on_oops will always force the
system to fail-stop, so systems where that behaviour is important will
still do the right thing.
As a test, when triggering an i-side 0111b error (ifetch from foreign
address) in kernel mode process context on POWER9, the kernel currently
dies quickly like this:

To register fadump, boot memory area - the size of low memory chunk that
is required for a kernel to boot successfully when booted with restricted
memory, is assumed to have no holes. But this memory area is currently
not protected from hot-remove operations. So, fadump could fail to
re-register after a memory hot-remove operation, if memory is removed
from boot memory area. To avoid this, ensure that memory from boot
memory area is not hot-removed when fadump is registered.

By default, 5% of system RAM is reserved for preserving boot memory.
Alternatively, a user can specify the amount of memory to reserve.
See Documentation/powerpc/firmware-assisted-dump.txt for details. In
addition to the memory reserved for preserving boot memory, some more
memory is reserved, to save HPTE region, CPU state data and ELF core
headers.
Memory Reservation during first kernel looks like below:
Low memory Top of memory
0 boot memory size |
| | |<--Reserved dump area -->|
V V | Permanent Reservation V
+-----------+----------/ /----------+---+----+-----------+----+
| | |CPU|HPTE| DUMP |ELF |
+-----------+----------/ /----------+---+----+-----------+----+
| ^
| |
\ /
-------------------------------------------
Boot memory content gets transferred to
reserved area by firmware at the time of
crash
This implicitly means that the sum of the sizes of boot memory, CPU
state data, HPTE region, DUMP preserving area and ELF core headers
can't be greater than the total memory size. But currently, a user is
allowed to specify any value as boot memory size. So, the above rule
is violated when a boot memory size around 50% of the total available
memory is specified. As the kernel is not handling this currently, it
may lead to undefined behavior. Fix it by setting an upper limit for
boot memory size to 25% of the total available memory. Also, instead
of using memblock_end_of_DRAM(), which doesn't take the holes, if any,
in the memory layout into account, use memblock_phys_mem_size() to
calculate the percentage of total available memory.

Firmware Assisted Dump is a facility to dump kernel core with assistance
from firmware. As part of this process the kernel ELF ABI version is
stored in the core file.
Currently fadump.h defines this to 0 if it is not already defined. This
clashes with a define in elf.h which sets it based on the current task -
not based on the kernel's ELF ABI version.
Use the compiler-provided #define _CALL_ELF which tells us the ELF ABI
version of the kernel to set e_flags, this matches what binutils does.
Remove the definition in fadump.h, which becomes unused.

The four cpumasks cpu_{possible,online,present,active}_bits are exposed
readonly via the corresponding const variables cpu_xyz_mask. But they are
also accessible for arbitrary writing via the exposed functions
set_cpu_xyz. There's quite a bit of code throughout the kernel which
iterates over or otherwise accesses these bitmaps, and having the access
go via the cpu_xyz_mask variables is nowadays [1] simply a useless
indirection.
It may be that any problem in CS can be solved by an extra level of
indirection, but that doesn't mean every extra indirection solves a
problem. In this case, it even necessitates some minor ugliness (see
4/6).
Patch 1/6 is new in v2, and fixes a build failure on ppc by renaming a
struct member, to avoid problems when the identifier cpu_online_mask
becomes a macro later in the series. The next four patches eliminate the
cpu_xyz_mask variables by simply exposing the actual bitmaps, after
renaming them to discourage direct access - that still happens through
cpu_xyz_mask, which are now simply macros with the same type and value as
they used to have.
After that, there's no longer any reason to have the setter functions be
out-of-line: The boolean parameter is almost always a literal true or
false, so by making them static inlines they will usually compile to one
or two instructions.
For a defconfig build on x86_64, bloat-o-meter says we save ~3000 bytes.
We also save a little stack (stackdelta says 127 functions have a 16 byte
smaller stack frame, while two grow by that amount). Mostly because, when
iterating over the mask, gcc typically loads the value of cpu_xyz_mask
into a callee-saved register and from there into %rdi before each
find_next_bit call - now it can just load the appropriate immediate
address into %rdi before each call.
[1] See Rusty's kind explanation
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/2047078/focus=2047722 for
some historic context.
This patch (of 6):
As preparation for eliminating the indirect access to the various global
cpu_*_bits bitmaps via the pointer variables cpu_*_mask, rename the
cpu_online_mask member of struct fadump_crash_info_header to simply
online_mask, thus allowing cpu_online_mask to become a macro.

This patch introduces an sysfs interface '/sys/kernel/fadump_release_mem' to
invalidate the last fadump registration, invalidate '/proc/vmcore', release
the reserved memory for general use and re-register for future kernel dump.
Once the dump is copied to the disk, unlike phyp dump, the userspace tool
can release all the memory reserved for dump with one single operation of
echo 1 to '/sys/kernel/fadump_release_mem'.
Release the reserved memory region excluding the size of the memory required
for future kernel dump registration. And therefore, unlike kdump, Fadump
doesn't need a 2nd reboot to get back the system to the production
configuration.

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.

Build the crash memory range list by traversing through system memory during
the first kernel before we register for firmware-assisted dump. After the
successful dump registration, initialize the elfcore header and populate
PT_LOAD program headers with crash memory ranges. The elfcore header is
saved in the scratch area within the reserved memory. The scratch area starts
at the end of the memory reserved for saving RMR region contents. The
scratch area contains fadump crash info structure that contains magic number
for fadump validation and physical address where the eflcore header can be
found. This structure will also be used to pass some important crash info
data to the second kernel which will help second kernel to populate ELF core
header with correct data before it gets exported through /proc/vmcore. Since
the firmware preserves the entire partition memory at the time of crash the
contents of the scratch area will be preserved till second kernel boot.
Since the memory dump exported through /proc/vmcore is in ELF format similar
to kdump, it will help us to reuse the kdump infrastructure for dump capture
and filtering. Unlike phyp dump, userspace tool does not need to refer any
sysfs interface while reading /proc/vmcore.
NOTE: The current design implementation does not address a possibility of
introducing additional fields (in future) to this structure without affecting
compatibility. It's on TODO list to come up with better approach to
address this.

Reserve the memory during early boot to preserve CPU state data, HPTE region
and RMA (real mode area) region data in case of kernel crash. At the time of
crash, powerpc firmware will store CPU state data, HPTE region data and move
RMA region data to the reserved memory area.
If the firmware-assisted dump fails to reserve the memory, then fallback
to existing kexec-based kdump.
Most of the code implementation to reserve memory has been
adapted from phyp assisted dump implementation written by Linas Vepstas
and Manish Ahuja
This patch also introduces a config option CONFIG_FA_DUMP for firmware
assisted dump feature on Powerpc (ppc64) architecture.
