Hi all,

There are currently two competing debug facilities to store kernel
messages in a persistent storage: a generic pstore and Google's
persistent_ram. Not so long ago (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/8/252),
it was decided that we should fix this situation.

Recently ramoops has switched to pstore, which basically means that
it became a RAM backend for the pstore framework.

persistent_ram+ram_console and ramoops+pstore have almost the same
features, except:

1. Ramoops doesn't support ECC. Having ECC is useful when a hardware
   reset was used to bring the machine back to life (i.e. a watchdog
   triggered). In such cases, RAM may be somewhat corrupt, but
   usually it is restorable.

2. 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.

These patches solve the first issue, plus move things to their
proper places. Patches that will fix the second issue are pending.

Thanks,

The 'node' struct member is unused, so remove it.

This is a longstanding bug, almost unnoticeable when calling
persistent_ram_write() for small buffers.

But when called for large data buffers, the write routine behaves
incorrectly, as the size may never update: instead of clamping
the size to the maximum buffer size, buffer_size_add_clamp() returns
an error (which is never checked by the write routine, btw).

To fix this, we now use buffer_size_add() that actually clamps the
size to the max value.

Also remove buffer_size_add_clamp(), it is no longer needed.

Factor post init logic out of __persistent_ram_init(), we'll need
it for the new persistent_ram_new() routine.

The routine just creates a persistent ram zone at a specified address.

For persistent_ram_init_ringbuffer() we'd need to add a
'struct persistent_ram' to the global list, and associate it with a
device. We don't need all this complexity in pstore_ram, so we introduce
the simple function.

Factor out vmap logic out of persistent_ram_buffer_map(), this will
make the code a bit more understandable when we'll add support for
non-bootmem memory.

This includes devices' memory (e.g. framebuffers or memory mapped
EEPROMs on a local bus), as well as the normal RAM that we don't use
for the main memory.

For the normal (but unused) ram we could use kmaps, but this assumes
highmem support, so we don't bother and just use the memory via
ioremap.

As a side effect, the following hack is possible: when used together
with pstore_ram (new ramoops) module, we can limit the normal RAM region
with mem= and then point ramoops to use the rest of the memory, e.g.

	mem=128M ramoops.mem_address=0x8000000

Sure, we could just reserve the region with memblock_reserve() early in
the arch/ code, and then register a pstore_ram platform device pointing
to the reserved region. It's still a viable option if platform wants
to do so.

Also, we might want to use IO accessors in case of a real device,
but for now we don't bother (the old ramoops wasn't using it either, so
at least we don't make things worse).

Since ramoops was converted to pstore, it has nothing to do with character
devices nowadays. Instead, today it is just a RAM backend for pstore.

The patch just moves things around. There are a few changes were needed
because of the move:

1. Kconfig and Makefiles fixups, of course.

2. In pstore/ram.c we have to play a bit with MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX, this
   is needed to keep user experience the same as with ramoops driver
   (i.e. so that ramoops.foo kernel command line arguments would still
   work).

This is a first step for adding ECC support for pstore RAM backend: we
will use the persistent_ram routines, kindly provided by Google.

Basically, persistent_ram is a set of helper routines to deal with the
[optionally] ECC-protected persistent ram regions.

A bit of Makefile, Kconfig and header files adjustments were needed
because of the move.

one step closer to the ECC support.

This is now straightforward: just introduce a module parameter and pass
the needed value to persistent_ram_new().

Yep. Suppose the ring buffer size is 4096 bytes, when somebody tries to
write a data in a 2000 bytes chunk, the first write will succeed (buffer
size will be 2000), but the second now 3000-bytes write will left the
size equal to 2000, instead of clamping it to 4096.

When we had a large buffer but a small writes (e.g. ram_console usage
scenario), this is almost unnoticeable. But when we started using large
writes the bug showed up.

This is a bug fix for a bug introduced in 3.4-rc1, it should go into
3.4 if there is another rc.

I've applied the first 7 patches, as they were localized to the
drivers/staging/android/ directory, but in order for me to apply the
rest, I need acks from the respective subsystem maintainers.

pstore developers, what do you say about these changes, are you ok with
them?

Good to see this work get done. Anton beat me to it. :) I have been
talking to pstore developers (Tony Luck) and ramoops maintainers (Kees
Cook) about this re-architecture work since I first floated this idea on
ce-android mailing list. I have been working on this rec-architecture
focusing on the second feature "Pstore doesn't support logging kernel
messages in run-time" and didn't get to ECC even though it is on my
feature list to do bring ramconsole features into ramoops.

Anton! Is it safe to assume you are planning to cover the second feature
as well, in which case I can drop my plans to get this work done.

Yep, absolutely. I'm fully committed to add runtime logging support

Cool. Do you need any testing help? I have an interest in seeing this

This consolidation seems good. I might prefer the move separated from
the changes, just to make review easier, but I have no idea what
that'll do to a bisect. :P

"ram.ko" seems like an awfully generic modbule name. Should this be
called pstore_ram.* instead, like was done for the header file?

And unless anyone objects, I have no problem letting the built-in name
change too.

This define should probably change just to avoid confusion.

Hm, I don't think persistent_ram_free_old() is what's wanted here.
That appears to entirely release the region? I want to make sure the
memory is cleared first. And will this area come back on a write, or
does it stay released?

persistent_ram_new() is marked as __init, so this is unsafe to call if
built as a module. I think persistent_ram_new() will need to lose the
__init marking, or I'm misunderstanding something.

Since neither persistent_ram_new() nor persistent_ram_buffer_map()
report the location of the failure, I'd like to keep the error report
(removed below "pr_err("request mem region (0x%lx@0x%llx)
failed\n",...") for failures, so there is something actionable in
dmesg when the platform data is mismatched for the hardware.

I don't see a reason to re-order these (nothing can use buf yet
because we haven't registered it with pstore yet).

No reason to rename this from "fail_buf".

This can lead to a BUG, since persistent_ram_free() doesn't handle
NULL arguments.

This target (fail_prz) should be removed, and the kfree is redundant
to fail_buf above.

Overall I like this series, but I'm not sure I agree with
persistent_ram_new().  The point of persistent_ram_early_init with the
call to memblock_reserve and the persistent_ram_descriptor list was to
have a single pool of persistent memory that could be parcelled out to
whatever drivers needed it, keeping the code out of the board file.
With persistent_ram_new, the board file is now responsible for making
sure that the memory has been reserved with memblock_reserve(), or,
even worse, mem= from the bootloader.  Mixing the two methods together
would be confusing.  Either persistent_ram_early_init should be
removed completely (or replaced with something that is easier to
register ramoops into), or ramoops should use
persistent_ram_init_ringbuffer like ram_console does.

Anton,

Could you please enhance Kconfig as well as ram.c with information with
the new functionality it supports. Also ram.c in my opinion doesn't
really reflect the feature it currently supports and its future plans.
ramoops doesn't either. ramdesg or ramkmsg probably are better suited.

Also leaving the ABI that ramoops specific might lead confusion in the
long run. It might make sense to update the ABI to reflect its new
features, if it doesn't impact existing ramoops users.

Would you be interested in adding a doc file for usage describing how
users can configure the driver - the details I would like to see are how
to pick a ram address especially when mem_address and mem_size are
passed in as module parameters.

Thanks,

Yep, exactly, the point of making the changes together with the
move was to keep things bisectable.

Oh, right you are. Actually, if I'd change the module name via
Makefile (i.e. ramoops-objs = ram.o), we can get rid of
MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX hack. So, I'd just name the module ramoops.ko
name, but keep the ram.c source file name.

Thanks for the hint.

Yes, mixing is discouraged. The mem= hack is mostly useful for
developers, for hacking random kernels. Even on x86 it is
useful, when you want to grab an oops, but you don't have say
netconsole, or HW really screwed up and you don't have any
means to get the oops log, ramoops may become quite useful.

But in the Android phone scenario, if you want to have this
feature into production kernels, platforms should register
the ramoops platform driver, as they were doing before.

Yep, this was indeed my original idea: persistent_ram_early_init
should go.

Boards (or generic arch/ or arch/mach-* code that knows memory
layout) will have to just do two things:

1. Wisely and early call memblock_reserve().
2. Register a ramoops platform device pointing to the reserved
   memory.

This is actually exactly the same as you were doing with
ram_console:

1. Platform were adding an entry to the global list of persistent
   ram zones, and then were calling persistent_ram_early_init()
   somewhere in the arch/ code (at least that's how I understood
   the idea of the code, as there are currently no in-tree users).
2. Then platforms were registering a ram_console platform device,
   and the driver would find out the needed zone by matching on
   the device name.

Thinking about it, the whole thing was actually abusing
the device-driver model a little bit. So things are just easier
now.

Thanks!

It just releases ECC-restored memory region (a copy). The original
(persistent) region is still fully reusable after that call.

(It is a pity that pstore internals can't use the restored copy
directly, as pstore expects that it will release the region itself
after pstore_mkfile(), so we somewhat duplicate the memory during
psi->read(). We'd better fix it some day, but it's a minor issue
so far.)

Um. ramoops' probe routine is also __init. persistent_ram_new is a
part of ramoops module, so their __init functions will be discarded
at the same time.

ram_console can't be a module, so it is also fine.

So I think it's all fine.

Sure thing, will do. I'll also start using dev_err() for new
code, that way it's more clearer which module reported the error.

The for loop has 'cxt->przs[i]' condition. :-)

Thanks for the review!

Sure, will do.

No, I actually think we shouldn't mention neither dmesg nor kmsg in
the name of the module. We might support MCE messages, tracing
messages and so on, and this all will be handled by ram.c.

So, ram.c is a generic backend for pstore.

We can do this, I can prepare a separate patch to change the ABI, but
so far I tend to not break any ABIs. We can always do it later -- it is
easy. :-D

We actually have Documentation/ramoops.txt already, but I'll add
a documentation for the new ecc option.

Thanks!

Ah-ha, okay. So this still needs to clear the memory in the "real"
copy then. Thanks for the clarification.

This is what I get for staring at patches instead of applying them. :)
Yeah, if it's all built together, it's no problem. It looked to me
like they were in different modules.

Okay, fair enough. :)

Sure thing! Thanks for doing this work; I'm excited to have access in
ramoops to the new interfaces. :)

Yes it can be done later.

Thanks for doing this. One thing that would be helpful for users is some
kind of guidance/tips on how to pick ram range for module parameter
passing, which is missing from the current ramoops.txt

This is long merged, but I remembered why I moved away from using
ioremap.  The current code uses atomics to track the ringbuffer
positions, which results in ldrex and strex instructions on ARM.
ldrex and strex on memory that is mapped as Device memory (which is
what ioremap maps as) is implementation defined, and is unpredictable
at the architecture level.

Makes sense, thanks for sharing! Fortunately, we still map things
w/ vmap if pfn appears to be valid. :-)
