Fix for the replacements made to the kernel's cpu_possible_mask,
cpu_online_mask, cpu_present_mask and cpu_active_mask symbols in
this kernel commit for Linux 4.5 and later kernels:
commit 5aec01b834fd6f8ca49d1aeede665b950d0c148e
kernel/cpu.c: eliminate cpu_*_mask
Without the patch, behavior is architecture-specific, dependent upon
whether the cpu mask values are used to calculate the number of cpus.
For example, ARM64 crash sessions fail during session initialization
with the error message "crash: zero-size memory allocation! (called
from <address>)", whereas X86_64 sessions come up normally, but
cpu mask values of zero are stored internally.

With the introduction of radix MMU in Power ISA 3.0, there are
changes in kernel page table management accommodating it. This patch
series makes appropriate changes here to work for such kernels.
Also, this series fixes a few bugs along the way:
ppc64: fix vtop page translation for 4K pages
ppc64: Use kernel terminology for each level in 4-level page table
ppc64/book3s: address changes in kernel v4.5
ppc64/book3s: address change in page flags for PowerISA v3.0
ppc64: use physical addresses and unfold pud for 64K page size
ppc64/book3s: support big endian Linux page tables
The patches are needed for Linux v4.5 and later kernels on all
ppc64 hardware.

2. The following makedumpfile commits are needed:
commit 5bc1f520cc7ab6e18abdd5af21c80ecda6339eb5

Date: Tue Jan 26 10:11:33 2016 +0900
[PATCH] Looking for page.compound_order/compound_dtor to exclude hugepages
* Required for kernel 4.4
Due to some changes in struct page, hugepages wouldn't be removed on
linux 4.4. makedumpfile reads page.lru.prev to get "order" (number of hugepages)
and page.lru.next to get "dtor" (destructor for hugepages) to detect hugepages,
but the offsets of the two was changed in linux 4.4.
kernel version | where is order | where is dtor
----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------
- v3.19 | lru.prev | lru.next
v4.0 - v4.3 | compound_order(=lru.prev) | compound_dtor(=lru.next)
v4.4 - | compound_order | compound_dtor
As above, OFFSET(page.compound_order) and OFFSET(page.compound_dtor) are
definitely necessary in VMCOREINFO on linux 4.4 and later.
Further, the content of page.compound_dtor was changed from direct address
of dtor to the ID of it in linux 4.4.

[PATCH] Skip examining compound tail pages
* Required for kernel 4.5
For filtering user pages, we check whether each page's
page->mapping have PAGE_MAPPING_ANON bit.
However, unexcludable compound tail pages can have
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON since kernel 4.5, they can be excluded
as user page wrong.
Now, we don't need to check compound tail pages because
excludable compound pages must be excluded at a time by
exclude_range() when the corresponding head page is checked.
So just skipping tail pages can avoid wrong filtering.

3. The linux-image dbgsym version installed must be pulled from a different repo
instead of the one meant for 16.04.2 because the gcc version of kernel
image (/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic) and the vmlinux with debug
symbols(usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic) don't match.
Please use the following repos

Applied crash utility's missing patches on top of
crash-7.1.4-1ubuntu4 and makedumpfile tool's missing patches on top of
makedumpfile-1.5.9-5ubuntu0.3. Did some sanity testing of the
patched binaries. The binaries were working as expected. |
[SRU justification]
This fix is required to make the crash tool usable. It does also improve makedumpfile filtering of pages.
[Impact]
Kernel crashes cannot be analysed with the crash tool.
[Fix]
Cherry-pick upstream commits fixing those issues.
[Test Case]
Running crash tool on a kernel crash file will display something like :
# crash -s usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic
crash: read error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff81e29ff0 type: "pv_init_ops"
crash: this kernel may be configured with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, which
renders /dev/mem unusable as a live memory source.
crash: trying /proc/kcore as an alternative to /dev/mem
crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff81e29ff0 type: "pv_init_ops"
crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff82166130 type: "shadow_timekeeper xtime_sec"
crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff81e0d304 type: "init_uts_ns"
crash: usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic and /var/crash/201701191308/dump.201701191308 do not match!
With the fix, the crash command will work as expected
[Regression]
None expected as those modifications are part of the Zesty and upstream version.
[Original description of the problem]
vmcore captured by kdump cannot be opened with crash:
% sudo crash -d1 /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic /var/crash/201612282137/dump.201612282137

linux 4.4. makedumpfile reads page.lru.prev to get "order" (number of hugepages)
and page.lru.next to get "dtor" (destructor for hugepages) to detect hugepages,
but the offsets of the two was changed in linux 4.4.
kernel version | where is order | where is dtor
----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------
- v3.19 | lru.prev | lru.next
v4.0 - v4.3 | compound_order(=lru.prev) | compound_dtor(=lru.next)
v4.4 - | compound_order | compound_dtor
As above, OFFSET(page.compound_order) and OFFSET(page.compound_dtor) are
definitely necessary in VMCOREINFO on linux 4.4 and later.
Further, the content of page.compound_dtor was changed from direct address
of dtor to the ID of it in linux 4.4.

[PATCH] Skip examining compound tail pages
* Required for kernel 4.5
For filtering user pages, we check whether each page's
page->mapping have PAGE_MAPPING_ANON bit.
However, unexcludable compound tail pages can have
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON since kernel 4.5, they can be excluded
as user page wrong.
Now, we don't need to check compound tail pages because
excludable compound pages must be excluded at a time by
exclude_range() when the corresponding head page is checked.
So just skipping tail pages can avoid wrong filtering.

[SRU justification]
This fix is required to make the crash tool usable. It does also improve makedumpfile filtering of pages.
[Impact]
Kernel crashes cannot be analysed with the crash tool.
[Fix]
Cherry-pick upstream commits fixing those issues.
[Test Case]
Running crash tool on a kernel crash file will display something like :
# crash -s usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic
crash: read error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff81e29ff0 type: "pv_init_ops"
crash: this kernel may be configured with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, which
renders /dev/mem unusable as a live memory source.
crash: trying /proc/kcore as an alternative to /dev/mem
crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff81e29ff0 type: "pv_init_ops"
crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff82166130 type: "shadow_timekeeper xtime_sec"
crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff81e0d304 type: "init_uts_ns"
crash: usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic and /var/crash/201701191308/dump.201701191308 do not match!
With the fix, the crash command will work as expected
[Regression]
None expected as those modifications are part of the Zesty and upstream version.
[Original description of the problem]
vmcore captured by kdump cannot be opened with crash:

With the introduction of radix MMU in Power ISA 3.0, there are
changes in kernel page table management accommodating it. This patch
series makes appropriate changes here to work for such kernels.
Also, this series fixes a few bugs along the way:
ppc64: fix vtop page translation for 4K pages
ppc64: Use kernel terminology for each level in 4-level page table
ppc64/book3s: address changes in kernel v4.5
ppc64/book3s: address change in page flags for PowerISA v3.0
ppc64: use physical addresses and unfold pud for 64K page size
ppc64/book3s: support big endian Linux page tables
The patches are needed for Linux v4.5 and later kernels on all
ppc64 hardware.

Fix for Linux commit 0139aa7b7fa12ceef095d99dc36606a5b10ab83a, which
renamed the page._count member to page._refcount. Without the patch,
certain "kmem" commands fail with the "kmem: invalid structure member
offset: page_count".

Fix for Linux commit edf14cdbf9a0e5ab52698ca66d07a76ade0d5c46, which
has appended a NULL entry as the final member of the pageflag_names[]
array. Without the patch, a message that indicates "crash: failed to
read pageflag_names entry" is displayed during session initialization
in Linux 4.6 kernels.

[PATCH] Looking for page.compound_order/compound_dtor to exclude hugepages
* Required for kernel 4.4
Due to some changes in struct page, hugepages wouldn't be removed on
linux 4.4. makedumpfile reads page.lru.prev to get "order" (number of hugepages)
and page.lru.next to get "dtor" (destructor for hugepages) to detect hugepages,
but the offsets of the two was changed in linux 4.4.
kernel version | where is order | where is dtor
----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------
- v3.19 | lru.prev | lru.next
v4.0 - v4.3 | compound_order(=lru.prev) | compound_dtor(=lru.next)
v4.4 - | compound_order | compound_dtor
As above, OFFSET(page.compound_order) and OFFSET(page.compound_dtor) are
definitely necessary in VMCOREINFO on linux 4.4 and later.
Further, the content of page.compound_dtor was changed from direct address
of dtor to the ID of it in linux 4.4.

[PATCH] Skip examining compound tail pages
* Required for kernel 4.5
For filtering user pages, we check whether each page's
page->mapping have PAGE_MAPPING_ANON bit.
However, unexcludable compound tail pages can have
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON since kernel 4.5, they can be excluded
as user page wrong.
Now, we don't need to check compound tail pages because
excludable compound pages must be excluded at a time by
exclude_range() when the corresponding head page is checked.
So just skipping tail pages can avoid wrong filtering.

3. The linux-image dbgsym version installed must be pulled from a different repo
instead of the one meant for 16.04.2 because the gcc version of kernel
image (/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic) and the vmlinux with debug
symbols(usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic) don't match.
Please use the following repos
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ddebs.list << EOF
deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/ $(lsb_release -cs) main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/ $(lsb_release -cs)-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/ $(lsb_release -cs)-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/ $(lsb_release -cs)-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
EOF
to install linux-image-4.8.0-34-generic-dbgsym package.
Thanks

Applied crash utility's missing patches on top of
crash-7.1.4-1ubuntu4 and makedumpfile tool's missing patches on top of
makedumpfile-1.5.9-5ubuntu0.3. Did some sanity testing of the
patched binaries. The binaries were working as expected. |
