[PATCH v6 07/11] ppc64/kexec_file: setup backup region for kdump kernel
Hari Bathini

Wed Jul 29 07:42:58 EDT 2020
Though kdump kernel boots from loaded address, the first 64KB of it is
copied down to real 0. So, setup a backup region and let purgatory
copy the first 64KB of crashed kernel into this backup region before
booting into kdump kernel. Update reserve map with backup region and
crashed kernel's memory to avoid kdump kernel from accidentially using
that memory.

v5 -> v6:
* Added Reviewed-by tag from Thiago.
* The comment explaining why a source buffer is needed for backup segment
is moved to appropriate place.
* Used the special branching instruction mpe suggested instead of "bl 0f"
* Added local labels & space between arguments in assembler code.
v4 -> v5:
* Did not add Reviewed-by tag from Thiago yet as he might want to reconsider
it with the changes in this patch.
* Wrote backup region copy code in assembler. Also, dropped the patch that
applies RELA relocations & the patch that sets up stack as they are no
longer needed.
* For correctness, updated fdt_add_mem_rsv() to take "BACKUP_SRC_END + 1"
as start address instead of BACKUP_SRC_SIZE.
v3 -> v4:
* Moved fdt_add_mem_rsv() for backup region under kdump flag, on Thiago's
suggestion, as it is only relevant for kdump.
v2 -> v3:
* Dropped check for backup_start in trampoline_64.S as purgatory() takes
care of it anyway.
v1 -> v2:
* Check if backup region is available before branching out. This is
to keep `kexec -l -s` flow as before as much as possible. This would
eventually change with more testing and addition of sha256 digest
verification support.
* Fixed missing prototype for purgatory() as reported by lkp.
