Hi, all
(Sorry for this late update. I was occupied with something else)
This patchset enables passing memory map via E820 map on x86 platform instead
of memmap=exactmap. It's a better design and will solve the following problem
so far:
- kernel cmdline is limited resource and large machines tend to have many
memory ranges that may excceed kernel cmdline limit size.
- kASLR doesn't work with memmap=exactmap, because kASLR happens early than
user defined memmap=exactmap takes effect.
Unfortunately, saved_max_pfn still got its user out there (calgry pci, it looks
like the only one). So for backward compatibility, I'm introducing a new option
--pass-memmap-cmdline to force kexec-tools to pass memmap=exactmap, the old way.
This patchset contains massive updates from the previous one. I take some
suggestions from reviewers. I try to split the changes into smaller pieces and
keep the whole change as minimal as I can so it wouldn't be too harsh to review
the patch.
Any comment is appreciate!
v5->v4:
Dave:
- separate add_setup_data() to another patch.
Vivek:
- adding comments for setup_data.
- store crash memory range info golobally in kexec_info.
me:
-remove dbgprint_mem_range defination, Simon has merged the patch.
v3->v4:
Linn: check return value of malloc (use xmalloc).
me: fix dbgprintf_mem_range.
v2->v3:
Linn:
- do not free sd (setup_data) buffer.
- reuse code in setup_e820 and setup_e820_ext.
v1->v2:
Vivek:
- Use function instead of macro for dbgprint_mem_range
- Do not pass reserved memory range for kdump. It could addressed later
separately.
WANG Chao (10):
x86, cleanup: fix indent
x86, cleanup: add extra arguments to add_memmap() and delete_memmap()
x86, cleanup: add other types of memory range for 2nd kernel boot to
memmap_p
x86, cleanup: add_memmap() only do alignment check on RANGE_RAM
x86, cleanup: use dbgprint_mem_range for memory range debugging
x86, cleanup: increase CRASH_MAX_MEMMAP_NR up to
CRASH_MAX_MEMORY_RANGES
x86, cleanup: Store crash memory ranges kexec_info
x86, cleanup: Add a funtion add_setup_data()
x86: add --pass-memmap-cmdline option
x86: Pass memory range via E820 for kdump

CRASH_MAX_MEMMAP_NR now is defined (KEXEC_MAX_SEGMENTS + 2) which is way
lower than the memmap we can pass to 2nd kernel.

int nr_crash_ranges;
crash_range contains the memory ranges used to boot 2nd kernel.
nr_crash_ranges contains the count of the crash memory ranges.

--pass-memmap-cmdline is used for pass memmap=exactmap cmdline for 2nd
kernel. Later we will use this option to disable passing E820 memmap
method but use the old exactmap method.

To: horms, vgoyal, ebiederm, hpa, trenn, dyoung, linn; +Cc: kexec
command line size is restricted by kernel, sometimes memmap=exactmap has
too many memory ranges to pass to cmdline. And also memmap=exactmap and
kASLR doesn't work together.
A better approach, to pass the memory ranges for crash kernel to boot
into, is filling the memory ranges into E820.
boot_params only got 128 slots for E820 map to fit in, when the number of
memory map exceeds 128, use setup_data to pass the rest as extended E820
memory map.
kexec boot could also benefit from setup_data in case E820 memory map
exceeds 128.
Now this new approach becomes default instead of memmap=exactmap.
saved_max_pfn users can specify --pass-memmap-cmdline to use the
exactmap approach.

Could you please explain why this is necessary.
Also, it seems to me that it would make sense to move this
patch so that is is immediately after patch 2 in the series.

add_memmap() will also add memory range with type RANGE_ACPI and
RANGE_ACPI_NVS (RANGE_RESERVED in the future) besides RANGE_RAM to
memmap_p.
Among these types of memory range, only RANGE_RAM needs to
be aligned with certain alignment. RANGE_ACPI, RANGE_ACPI_NVS and
RANGE_RESERVED doesn't have to be aligned.
I'll add above comment to the patch description.

In load_crashdump_segments(), memmap_p used to contain RANGE_RAM memory
range for booting 2nd kernel. Now adding types of RANGE_ACPI and
RANGE_ACPI_NVS to memmap_p, so later we can pass all the types of memory
range to 2nd kernel. These all types of memory ranges are all stored in
memmap_p.
I'll add above comment to patch description.

memmap_p[] is statically allocated for a certain amount. It will be used
later when mapping these memory maps to e820 map.
It's convenient to keep track of the count of memmap_p (nr_memmap) in
add_memmap and delete_memmap, because the counting has already been
taken care of in these two functions.
The original add_memmap() can only add memory range of RANGE_RAM type.
For adding other types of memory range, add another argument for
indicating the type.

* [PATCH RESEND v5 00/10] kexec-tools, x86: E820 memmap pass for kdump

Hi, all
(Sorry for this late update. I was occupied with something else)
This patchset enables passing memory map via E820 map on x86 platform instead
of memmap=exactmap. It's a better design and will solve the following problem
so far:
- kernel cmdline is limited resource and large machines tend to have many
memory ranges that may excceed kernel cmdline limit size.
- kASLR doesn't work with memmap=exactmap, because kASLR happens early than
user defined memmap=exactmap takes effect.
Unfortunately, saved_max_pfn still got its user out there (calgry pci, it looks
like the only one). So for backward compatibility, I'm introducing a new option
--pass-memmap-cmdline to force kexec-tools to pass memmap=exactmap, the old way.
This patchset contains massive updates from the previous one. I take some
suggestions from reviewers. I try to split the changes into smaller pieces and
keep the whole change as minimal as I can so it wouldn't be too harsh to review
the patch.
Any comment is appreciate!
v5->v4:
Dave:
- separate add_setup_data() to another patch.
Vivek:
- adding comments for setup_data.
- store crash memory range info golobally in kexec_info.
me:
-remove dbgprint_mem_range defination, Simon has merged the patch.
v3->v4:
Linn: check return value of malloc (use xmalloc).
me: fix dbgprintf_mem_range.
v2->v3:
Linn:
- do not free sd (setup_data) buffer.
- reuse code in setup_e820 and setup_e820_ext.
v1->v2:
Vivek:
- Use function instead of macro for dbgprint_mem_range
- Do not pass reserved memory range for kdump. It could addressed later
separately.
WANG Chao (10):
x86, cleanup: fix indent
x86, cleanup: add extra arguments to add_memmap() and delete_memmap()
x86, cleanup: add other types of memory range for 2nd kernel boot to
memmap_p
x86, cleanup: add_memmap() only do alignment check on RANGE_RAM
x86, cleanup: use dbgprint_mem_range for memory range debugging
x86, cleanup: increase CRASH_MAX_MEMMAP_NR up to
CRASH_MAX_MEMORY_RANGES
x86, cleanup: Store crash memory ranges kexec_info
x86, cleanup: Add a funtion add_setup_data()
x86: add --pass-memmap-cmdline option
x86: Pass memory range via E820 for kdump
