2021-11-16Revert "mark pstore-blk as broken"Kees Cook1-1/+0
This reverts commit d07f3b081ee632268786601f55e1334d1f68b997. pstore-blk was fixed to avoid the unwanted APIs in commit 7bb9557b48fc ("pstore/blk: Use the normal block device I/O path"), which landed in the same release as the commit adding BROKEN.

2021-06-14mark pstore-blk as brokenChristoph Hellwig1-0/+1
pstore-blk just pokes directly into the pagecache for the block device without going through the file operations for that by faking up it's own file operations that do not match the block device ones. As this breaks the control of the block layer of it's page cache, and even now just works by accident only the best thing is to just disable this driver.

2020-12-01pstore: Move kmsg_bytes default into KconfigVasile-Laurentiu Stanimir1-0/+8
While kmsg_bytes can be set for pstore via mount, if a crash occurs before the mount only partial console log will be stored as kmsg_bytes defaults to a potentially different hardcoded value in the kernel (PSTORE_DEFAULT_KMSG_BYTES). This makes it impossible to analyze valuable post-mortem data especially on the embedded development or in the process of bringing up new boards. Change this value to be a Kconfig option with the default of old PSTORE_DEFAULT_KMSG_BYTES Signed-off-by: Vasile-Laurentiu Stanimir <vasile-laurentiu.stanimir@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

2020-05-30pstore/blk: Introduce backend for block devicesWeiXiong Liao1-0/+64
pstore/blk is similar to pstore/ram, but uses a block device as the storage rather than persistent ram. The pstore/blk backend solves two common use-cases that used to preclude using pstore/ram: - not all devices have a battery that could be used to persist regular RAM across power failures. - most embedded intelligent equipment have no persistent ram, which increases costs, instead preferring cheaper solutions, like block devices. pstore/blk provides separate configurations for the end user and for the block drivers. User configuration determines how pstore/blk operates, such as record sizes, max kmsg dump reasons, etc. These can be set by Kconfig and/or module parameters, but module parameter have priority over Kconfig. Driver configuration covers all the details about the target block device, such as total size of the device and how to perform read/write operations. These are provided by block drivers, calling pstore_register_blkdev(), including an optional panic_write callback used to bypass regular IO APIs in an effort to avoid potentially destabilized kernel code during a panic.

This turns the sub-options into 'tristate' ones so the dependencies are honored, and makes the pstore itself select the crypto core if necessary.

2018-03-09pstore: Use crypto compress APIGeliang Tang1-19/+15
In the pstore compression part, we use zlib/lzo/lz4/lz4hc/842 compression algorithm API to implement pstore compression backends. But there are many repeat codes in these implementations. This patch uses crypto compress API to simplify these codes. 1) rewrite allocate_buf_for_compression, free_buf_for_compression, pstore_compress, pstore_decompress functions using crypto compress API. 2) drop compress, decompress, allocate, free functions in pstore_zbackend, and add zbufsize function to get each different compress buffer size. 3) use late_initcall to call ramoops_init later, to make sure the crypto subsystem has already initialized. 4) use 'unsigned int' type instead of 'size_t' in pstore_compress, pstore_decompress functions' length arguments. 5) rename 'zlib' to 'deflate' to follow the crypto API's name convention.

2016-06-02pstore: add lzo/lz4 compression supportGeliang Tang1-2/+29
Like zlib compression in pstore, this patch added lzo and lz4 compression support so that users can have more options and better compression ratio. The original code treats the compressed data together with the uncompressed ECC correction notice by using zlib decompress. The ECC correction notice is missing in the decompression process. The treatment also makes lzo and lz4 not working. So I treat them separately by using pstore_decompress() to treat the compressed data, and memcpy() to treat the uncompressed ECC correction notice.

2012-09-06pstore/ftrace: Convert to its own enable/disable debugfs knobAnton Vorontsov1-0/+1
With this patch we no longer reuse function tracer infrastructure, now we register our own tracer back-end via a debugfs knob. It's a bit more code, but that is the only downside. On the bright side we have: - Ability to make persistent_ram module removable (when needed, we can move ftrace_ops struct into a module). Note that persistent_ram is still not removable for other reasons, but with this patch it's just one thing less to worry about; - Pstore part is more isolated from the generic function tracer. We tried it already by registering our own tracer in available_tracers, but that way we're loosing ability to see the traces while we record them to pstore. This solution is somewhere in the middle: we only register "internal ftracer" back-end, but not the "front-end"; - When there is only pstore tracing enabled, the kernel will only write to the pstore buffer, omitting function tracer buffer (which, of course, still can be enabled via 'echo function > current_tracer').

2012-07-17pstore: Add persistent function tracingAnton Vorontsov1-0/+12
With this support kernel can save function call chain log into a persistent ram buffer that can be decoded and dumped after reboot through pstore filesystem. It can be used to determine what function was last called before a reset or panic. We store the log in a binary format and then decode it at read time. p.s. Mostly the code comes from trace_persistent.c driver found in the Android git tree, written by Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> (according to sign-off history).

2012-06-13pstore: Add console log messages supportAnton Vorontsov1-0/+7
Pstore doesn't support logging kernel messages in run-time, it only dumps dmesg when kernel oopses/panics. This makes pstore useless for debugging hangs caused by HW issues or improper use of HW (e.g. weird device inserted -> driver tried to write a reserved bits -> SoC hanged. In that case we don't get any messages in the pstore. Therefore, let's add a runtime logging support: PSTORE_TYPE_CONSOLE.
