kernel.h: split out panic and oops helpers

2021-07-01T18:06:04Z

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and oops helpers. There are several purposes of doing this: - dropping dependency in bug.h - dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h - unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

kexec: dump kmessage before machine_kexec

2021-05-07T07:26:32Z

kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_SHUTDOWN) is called before machine_restart(), machine_halt(), and machine_power_off(). The only one that is missing is machine_kexec(). The dmesg output that it contains can be used to study the shutdown performance of both kernel and systemd during kexec reboot. Here is example of dmesg data collected after kexec: root@dplat-cp22:~# cat /sys/fs/pstore/dmesg-ramoops-0 | tail ...

kernel: kexec: remove the lock operation of system_transition_mutex

2021-01-25T17:40:37Z

Function kernel_kexec() is called with lock system_transition_mutex held in reboot system call. While inside kernel_kexec(), it will acquire system_transition_mutex agin. This will lead to dead lock. The dead lock should be easily triggered, it hasn't caused any failure report just because the feature 'kexec jump' is almost not used by anyone as far as I know. An inquiry can be made about who is using 'kexec jump' and where it's used. Before that, let's simply remove the lock operation inside CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP ifdeffery scope.

elf_prstatus: collect the common part (everything before pr_reg) into a struct

2021-01-06T13:38:29Z

Preparations to doing i386 compat elf_prstatus sanely - rather than duplicating the beginning of compat_elf_prstatus, take these fields into a separate structure (compat_elf_prstatus_common), so that it could be reused. Due to the incestous relationship between binfmt_elf.c and compat_binfmt_elf.c we need the same shape change done to native struct elf_prstatus, gathering the fields prior to pr_reg into a new structure (struct elf_prstatus_common). Fortunately, offset of pr_reg is always a multiple of 16 with no padding right before it, so it's possible to turn all the stuff prior to it into a single member without disturbing the layout.

crypto: sha - split sha.h into sha1.h and sha2.h

2020-11-20T03:45:33Z

Currently contains declarations for both SHA-1 and SHA-2, and contains declarations for SHA-3. This organization is inconsistent, but more importantly SHA-1 is no longer considered to be cryptographically secure. So to the extent possible, SHA-1 shouldn't be grouped together with any of the other SHA versions, and usage of it should be phased out. Therefore, split into two headers and , and make everyone explicitly specify whether they want the declarations for SHA-1, SHA-2, or both. This avoids making the SHA-1 declarations visible to files that don't want anything to do with SHA-1. It also prepares for potentially moving sha1.h into a new insecure/ or dangerous/ directory.

kexec: add machine_kexec_post_load()

2020-01-08T16:32:55Z

It is the same as machine_kexec_prepare(), but is called after segments are loaded. This way, can do processing work with already loaded relocation segments. One such example is arm64: it has to have segments loaded in order to create a page table, but it cannot do it during kexec time, because at that time allocations won't be possible anymore.
