2014-03-28x86, kaslr: add alternative way to locate kernel text mapping areaWANG Chao
When kASLR is enabled (CONFIG_RANDOMIZED_BASE=y), kernel text mapping base is randomized. The max base offset of such randomization is configured at compile time through CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MAX_BASE_OFFSET (by default 1G). Currently kexec-tools is using hard code macro X86_64__START_KERNEL_map (0xffffffff80000000) and X86_64_KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (512M) to determine kernel text mapping from kcore's PT_LOAD. With kASLR, the mapping is changed as the following: ffffffff80000000 - (ffffffff80000000+CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET) As Vivek suggested, we can get _stext kernel symbol address from /proc/kallsyms, and search for kcore's PT_LOAD which contains _stext, and we can say that this area represents the kernel mapping area. Let's first use this way to find out kernel text mapping. If failed for whatever reason, fall back to use the old way.

2014-03-06Fix an off-by-one in locate_hole()Matthew Fleming
Fix an off-by-one in locate_hole() that can cause it to return a range that was previously allocated. In upgrading to kexec-tools 2.0.5 I first got the error "Overlapping memory segments at 0xbeff000" Adding some debugging I found locate_hole was returning incorrect values. The below is from the debug I added: XXXMDF: look for hole size 100000, cur range [52b3000, bffffff] size 6d4cfff XXXMDF: look for hole memsz=100000, found beff000 Hmm, if we wanted 0x100000 bytes ending at 0xbffffff, that should be 0xbf00000, not 0xbef000. Continuing to the second invocation: XXXMDF: look for hole size 1000, cur range [52b3000, befefff] size 6c4bfff XXXMDF: look for hole size 1000, cur range [bfff000, bffffff] size fff XXXMDF: look for hole memsz=1000, found bffe000 Now we die with overlapping ranges, since the 0x100000 bytes at 0xbeff000 overlaps 0x1000 bytes at 0xbffe000.

2014-02-06kernel image probe function return value checking fixDave Young
Currently kexec will use the kernel image type when probe function return value >=0. It looks odd, but previously it works. Since commit bf06cf2095 it does not work anymore. During my testing for arm zImage, in 2nd kernel the atags pointer and the machine_id are not valid, I did a lot of debugging in kernel, finally I found this is caused by a kexec tools bug instead. Because uImage will be probed before zImage, also the uImage probe return 1 instead of -1 since bf06cf2095, thus kexec will mistakenly think it is uImage. Fix this issue by regarding it's valid only when probe return 0. Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>

2014-01-16Fix value of mbi->mem_lower for multiboot-x86Peter Chubb
In the multiboot header, there is a field, `mem_lower' that is meant to contain the size of memory starting at zero and ending below 640k. If your kernel is compiled with CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW non zero (the usual case), then a hole is inserted into kernel's physical memory map at zero, so the test to find the size of this region in kexec/arch/i386/kexec-multiboot-x86.c never succeeds, so the value is always zero. On a PC99 architecture, there is always memory at physycal address zero; assume that a region that starts below 64k actually starts at zero, and use it for the mem_lower variable.

2013-11-19kexec/ppc64: bring up new ppc64le architectureLaurent Dufour
This patch provides support for the new Power PC litte endian (LE) mode. The LE mode only differs in the way the instructions and data are stored in memory thus there is no real need to duplicate the ppc64 code. However some compilation's options, especially for the purgatory, differ between little and big endian mode's support. A new "SUBARCH" build variable is introduced which is currently only used for PPC64 to specify the endianness. Another set of changes in this patch is fixing minor endianess issues in the ppc64 code and fix an alignment issue raised on Power7 little endian mode. Among these fixes, the check on the kernel binary endianess is removed, since we can imagine kexecing a LE kernel from a BE environment, as far as the specified root filesystem and initrd file are containing the right binaries. This patch depends on the patch "kexec/ppc64: use common architecture fs2dt.c file" I sent earlier on the kexec mailing list.

Following the commit 'b3c2962 fs2dt: Add a generic copy of fs2dt' which introduced a generic fs2dt file, this patch is removing the ppc64 architecture's one. Tests have been done successfully on Power 7 plateform. Signed-off-by: Laurent Dufour <ldufour@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
2013-11-14arm: add command line option for the total image sizeDaniel Mack
Currently, kexec on arm assumes that it's safe to place binary images such as atags, dtb or initrd at an estimated offset after the load address. That estimated offset is set to 4 times the size of the compressed image, hence assuming a minimum compression ratio of 1:4. While that assumption matches what the in-kernel compressors are able to achive, it doesn't take into account the .bss section the kernel image carries, and which can grow to arbitrary sizes while not accounting to the compressed image size. After decompression, and before the execution of the compressed kernel, the .bss area is initialized to zeros, trampeling over the binary images in case they happen to live in that piece of memory. Unfortunately, determining the full image size is not easiliy possible at runtime, as it would include doing all possible ways of decompression and then walk the ELF sections by hand. For now, allow users to override the static offset with a new, arm specific command line argument. Users are supposed to set this, and determine a sane value by using 'arm-linux-size vmlinux'.

2013-10-17kexec/fs2dt: fix endianess conversionLaurent Dufour
While reviewing fs2dt.c in the common kexec directory, in order to use it to support little endian ppc64 architecture, I found some endianess conversion's issues. In dt_reserve, dt_base is a pointer and thus should not be converted. In checkprop, values read from the device tree are big endian encoded and should be converted if CPU is running in little endian mode. In add_dyn_reconf_usable_mem_property__, fix extraneous endianess conversion of rlen which should be natively used to increase the dt pointer.

2013-10-03kexec: Fix off-by-one errors in locate_hole()Geert Uytterhoeven
When calling locate_hole() with "hole_size" equal to the size of an available memory block, it fails to use that memory block. "end" and "hole_max" point to the last byte within the range, hence - "size = end - start" is one less than "hole_size", - "hole_base + hole_size" is one more than "hole_max". Subtract one from "hole_size" when doing the comparison (adding 1 to "size" could overflow in case of one big range covering the whole address space). But explicitly check if "hole_size" is zero first, to handle this case without causing underflows.
