[PATCH 2/3] LoongArch: Add kdump support

Youling Tang tangyouling at loongson.cn
Sun Aug 28 21:37:02 PDT 2022


This patch adds support for kdump, the kernel will reserve a region
for the crash kernel and jump there on panic.

Arch-specific functions are added to allow for implementing a crash
dump file interface, /proc/vmcore, which can be viewed as a ELF file.

A user space tool, like kexec-tools, is responsible for allocating a
separate region for the core's ELF header within crash kdump kernel
memory and filling it in when executing kexec_load().

Then, its location will be advertised to crash dump kernel via a new
device-tree property, "linux,elfcorehdr", and crash dump kernel preserves
the region for later use with fdt_reserve_elfcorehdr() at boot time.

At the same time, it will also limit the crash kdump kernel to the
crashkernel area via a new device-tree property, "linux, usable-memory-range",
so as not to destroy the original kernel dump data.

On crash dump kernel, /proc/vmcore will access the primary kernel's memory
with copy_oldmem_page().

I tested this on  LoongArch 3A5000 machine and works as expected (Suggest
crashkernel parameter is "crashkernel=512M at 2320M"), you may test it by
triggering a crash through /proc/sysrq_trigger:

 $ sudo kexec -p /boot/vmlinux-kdump --reuse-cmdline --append="nr_cpus=1"
 # echo c > /proc/sysrq_trigger
