b82449261b makedumpfile, ppc: Support to filter dump for kernels that use CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.
This is a backport of commit bcdba92 ("[PATCH v5] Support to filter dump
for kernels that use CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP."):

commit bcdba92
Author: Hari Bathini <hbathini@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

    [PATCH v5] Support to filter dump for kernels that use CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.

    Makedumpfile tool fails to filter dump for kernels that are build with
    CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP set, as it fails to do address translations
    for vmemmap regions that are mapped out of zone normal. This patch
    provides support in makedumpfile to do vmemmap to physical address
    translations when they are mapped outside zone normal. Some kernel
    symbols are needed in vmcoreinfo for this changes to be effective.
    The kernel patch that adds the necessary symbols to vmcoreinfo has
    been posted to linuxppc devel mailing list. This patch is influenced
    by vmemmap to physical address translation support code in crash tool.
    This patch has been tested successfully at all dump filtering levels
    on kernels with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP set/unset. Also, tested dump
    filtering on already filtered vmcores (re-filtering).

    Changes from v4 to v5:
    Trimmed patch description to be compact and readable.

    Changes from v3 to v4:
    Rebased to devel branch.

On PPC platform, filter facility is broken since we use
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. This patch fixes this issue but also needs kernel
counterpart fix to get makedumpfile filter working.

59934ba188 kdumpctl: Avoid leaking fd to subshell
We only allow one instance of kdump service running at each time by
flock /var/lock/kdump which is opened as fd 9 in kdumpctl script.

However a leaking fd issue has been discovered by SELinux:

When executing a specific shell command (not the shell built-in but
provided by other packages, in this case - restorecon) in kdumpctl,
current shell will fork a new subshell for executing and
the subshell will inherit open fd 9 from parent shell. And SELinux
detects that subshell is holding the open fd and consider fd 9 is
leaked.

To avoid this kind of leaking, the most easy way seems to be breaking our
kdumpctl code out into two parts:
- A top level parent shell, which is only used to deal with the lock and
  invoking the subshell below.
- A 2nd tier level subshell, which is closing the inherited open fd at
  very first and doing the rest of the kdumpctl job. So that it isn't
  leaking fd to its subshell when executing like restorecon, etc.

To be easy to understand, the callgraph is roughly like below:
[..]
--> open(9)
--> flock(9)
--> fork
  --> close(9)      <-- we close 9 right here
  --> main()        <-- we're now doing the real job
  --> [..]
  --> fork()
    --> restorecon  <-- we don't leak fd 9 to child process
  --> [..]
--> [..]

As shown above, a wrapper main() is added as the 2nd tier level shell in
this kind of call model. So we can completely avoid leaking fd to
subshell.

Description:
   Currently we only added memdebug code before different dracut
hooks ie. pre-udev pre-pivot etc. Add memdebug in kdump.sh before
capturing vmcore is also good for debugging.

d43f2a8502 fix sadump format phys_base calculating error
Description of Problem:

  This is a REGRESSION issue.

  At fedora makedumpfile has been updated toward v1.5.4. Unfortunately,
  this version fails calculating phys_base on sadump format and then
  fails converting vmcore.

  x86_64 kernel is relocatable kernel and there can be a gap between
  the physical address statically assigned to kernel data and texts
  and the address that is really assigned to each object corresponding
  to the kernel symbols. The gap is phys_base. makedump calculates the
  phys_base in an ad-hoc way that comparing the addresses of some of
  occurrences of "Linux kernel" strings in certain range of vmcore.

Resolution:
  Fix patch has already been posted in upstream. so just back port.

bb3f341fb2 kdump, x86: Process multiple Crash kernel in /proc/iomem
Boot with "crashkernel=128M,high", kernel now uses "Crash kernel" in
/proc/iomem for crash kernel memory reservations at both low and high:

commit 157752d
Author: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>

    kexec: use Crash kernel for Crash kernel low

But kexec is still scanning for "Crash kernel low" in /proc/iomem, and
will fail immediately when load/unload crash kernel.

So let's pull the following commit from kexec upstream to make
it compatible with our kernel:

commit e25e6e7
Author: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>

    kdump, x86: Process multiple Crash kernel in /proc/iomem

55c7158d16 makedumpfile: wrong cyclic buffer size recalculation causes bitmap data corruption
Description of Problem:

In cyclic mode, makedumpfile recalculates cyclic buffer size as the
largest multiple of the largest block size managed by buddy
allocator, i.e. 4MB, smaller than the cyclic buffer size in order to
enable to process each unit of blocks managed by buddy allocator in
each cycle.

However, makedumpfile does two wrong things in the recalculations:

1) While updating size of cyclic buffer, makedumpfile doesn't update
length of range of cycle in page frame numbers, due to which, if
cyclic buffer size is updated, because cyclic buffer size is always
reduced during udpate, some buffer overrun can happen on the cyclic
buffer. This can cause segmentation violation in the worst case.

2) roundup() is used to calculate bitmap size for maximum block size
managed by buddy allocator, here divideup() is correct, due to
which, although memory filtering is not affected, cyclic buffer size
get too much aligned and less efficient.

Fix patches has already been posted and merged in makedumpfile
development devel branch.

6a56c56743 Fix max_mapnr issue on system has over 44-bit addressing.
The dumpfile header has this field, which was inherited from
the old "diskdump" facility:

 struct disk_dump_header {
 ...
        unsigned int            max_mapnr;      /* = max_mapnr */
 ...
and which, among other things, is used by the crash utility as a
delimiter to determine whether a physical address read request is
legitimate.  And obviously the field cannot handle PFN values greater
than 32-bits.

The makedumpfile source code does have its own max_mapnr representation
in its DumpInfo structure in "makedumpfile.h":

 struct DumpInfo {
 ...
        unsigned long long      max_mapnr;   /* number of page descriptor */
 ...
But in its "diskdump_mod.h" file, it carries forward the old diskdump
header format, which has the 32-bit field:

 struct disk_dump_header {
 ...
        unsigned int            max_mapnr;      /* = max_mapnr */
 ...
And here in "makedumpfile.c", the inadvertent truncation occurs
when the PFN is greater than 32-bits:

 int
 write_kdump_header(void)
 {
 ...
        dh->max_mapnr      = info->max_mapnr;
 ...
Now upstream has below commit to fix this, back port it:

7c48f71b6f kdump.sysconfig: default to "nofail" mount
Currently we have two issues against mounting filesystems by systemd.
1. If any failure in sysroot.mount, initrd.target won't be reached.
2. If any failure in mounting /etc/fstab, initrd.target won't be reached

Our kdump.sh is in dracut-pre-pivot hook which is ordered after
initrd.target. That means if systemd doesn't reach initrd.target,
pre-pivot service will not run.

Based on above, we can conclude that in order to run kdump.sh,
initrd.target must be reached.

To fix issue 1), we can add rootflags=nofail to 2nd kernel cmdline, so
that initrd.target will not require sysroot.mount. initrd.target
wouldn't care about the failures in sysroot.mount. That means
initrd.target can always be reached whether or not sysroot.mount fails.
So when initrd.target is reached, kdump.sh can be run.

To fix issue 2), we can append "nofail" mount options to every entry in
/etc/fstab. It has almost the same affects as to sysroot.mount.
initrd.target can be reached whether or not mount /etc/fstab fails. So
when initrd.target is reached, kdump.sh can be run.

If the mount failures block kdump from working properly (for example,
the dump target isn't mounted), the error handling will be done by
"default" action specified in /etc/kdump.conf. Otherwise kdump will
ignore the mount failures and dump as expected.

6a0fb27687 kdump.service: Start kdump after network is online and remote fs is mounted
Now kdump.service runs "After" network.target. But network.target
doesn't mean network is setup and online[1]. We should use
network-online.target instead for ssh/nfs dump.

And also because nfs dump requires a mounted nfs when rebuilding kdump
initrd, kdump.service should also run "After" remote-fs.target (this
means all remote fs configured in /etc/fstab is mounted).

The downside of this patch is we always need to wait for network-online.target
even when dump target is a local disk. If network fails to come up,
kdump.service have to be stuck until network-online.target timeout (90
seconds by default).

d4ce7e5d97 remove 98selinux dependency
Chaowang measured the selinux load_policy memory usage, it need ~50M
It's too much under kdump 2nd kernel, it cause more OOM then before.

Here is the findings from Vivek:
- If we don't load policy or don't do restorecon, kernel automatically
  uses a label for file as specified by file
  /sys/fs/selinux/initial_contexts/file

  On my system this value is "system_u:object_r:file_t:s0". Kernel
  enforces this label on a file if it is not labeled. That's the reason
  that you see above label on vmcore file when selinux policy was not
  loaded in second kernel or restorecon was not done.

  Note: I did some testing with rhel6 and there also I see file_t context.
  Not sure why that's the case.

- Relabeling of root file system over boot happens if there is a file
  /.autorelabel present. This file is touched by systemd service
  fedora-autorelabel-mark.service. And this file comes from initscritps
  package.

  So if this service thinks that system was booted with selinux disabled
  it will put this file on root and when next time system boots with
  selinux enabled, relabeling is enforced by fedora-autorelabel.service
  service.

- In our case relabeling is not happening after saving vmcore because
  there does not seem be any fedora-autorelabel-mark.service running
  from initramfs context. Looks like this service runs after switching
  to real root.

  Aug 08 10:44:13 vm9-f19 systemd[1]: Started Mark the need to relabel after reboot.

- selinux poicy is now loaded by systemd after root switch has taken
  place.

  Aug 08 10:44:10 vm9-f19 systemd[1]: Successfully loaded SELinux policy in 357.693ms.

So now we know that why selinux relabeling is not taking place. Reason
being that systemd service which marks the file system for autorelabeling
does not run from initramfs context.

And it might not make to run this service from initramfs context before
switch root. In general it makes sense to first switch to root, load
selinux policy if needed and then check whether to mark this filesystem
for relabel or not. Ideally root is mourted read only before that. It is
just that we break this rule for kdump. So as long as we make sure we
relabel files created by kdump after booting back, things should be fine.

Since we will relabel the vmcore dir after reboot so let's remove
the selinux dracut module dependency to avoid load_policy in 2nd kernel.
If in the future load_policy memory usage shrinks to an acceptable level
or there's a better solution we can add selinux load_policy back later.

0aee2a0072 dracut-module-setup.sh: setup correct system time and time zone in 2nd kernel.

1. Add description of remove_cmdline_param() per Vivek.
2. Remove_cmdline_param() will take kernel cmdline as $1, then strip it
   and print the result.

cc4abf52c9 Use /lib/dracut/no-emergency-shell to control action on fail
Currently when action_on_fail is enabled, the emergency_shell won't be called
either. In kdump even though user specify the default action as emergency_shell,
dracut still skip it. Now change the implementation of action_on_fail to depend
on a file which is created by kdump when making kdump initrd, then remove it
at the beginning of kdump. This can solve the explicit emergency_shell problem.

070a561da5 Revert: kdump.sysconfig: Add option action_on_fail and set its default as continue
This reverts commit 9e964ff4c6.

Currently, because of dracut implementation, in kdump 'default shell' will
call emergency_shell of dracut. If action_on_fail is enabled, emergency_shell
is skipped. Then 'default shell' won't work either.

Here revert the old commit 9e964ff4 so that take other implementation.

a88f0848dc dracut-kdump.sh: Redirect kdump script stdout/stderr to /dev/console
Currently in kdump.sh, we redirect stdout to stderr, because dracut
pre-pivot service (which kdump.sh is running within) only output stderr
to console. That behavior is defined in dracut-pre-pivot.service:

[Service]
...
StandardInput=null
StandardOutput=syslog
StandardError=syslog+console
...

But during testing, it has been observed that systemd will cache stderr
buffer, and first record to syslog (and it's own journal), then copy the
logs to /dev/console. And this practice is somehow unexpected in our
kdump script. We may have suppressed stdout/stderr that hasn't been
write to /dev/console before we run a force reboot.

With this change of redirecting stdout/stderr to /dev/console, kdump.sh
will output everything immediately to console, not cached/hidden by
systemd.

791706939e mkdumprd: check return value of subshell
Currently some functions are used in subshell to assign string to a
variable. For example:
 _mnt=$(to_mount "$1")

In this case if we call perror_exit in the subshell, subshell will exit
1, but the parent process (mkdumprd) won't exit.

So we should handle the exit code of a subshell if the subshell calls
perror_exit over a failure.

43da5c516d mkdumprd: get_persistent_dev() return original dev if no persistent dev exists.
kvm virtio-blk device, for example /dev/vdb, doesn't have serial id by
default. So there's no persistent device node under /dev/disk/ for
/dev/vdb.
In case no persistent dev for dump target, we should use the original
device name directly, not failing the mkdumprd.

v2: update warn message from Vivek.

ee7d1588f4 dracut-kdump.sh: Merge dump_to_rootfs() to dump_fs()
dump_to_rootfs is a special handling of dump_fs. It's better we merge them
together to cleaup code.

Now dump_fs() function takes two types of $1, a mount point like
/sysroot or a dump target device like /dev/mapper/vg-lv_kdump.

e779fc632b monitor-dd-progress fix
stdout if line buffered, thus even it's redirect to stderr, it will not show
on console automaticly. Because monitor_dd_progress is only for rawdump
currently, so I think we can just use "echo" instead of "echo -n".

Another problem is sometimes CURRENT_SIZE does not get value when it's used
in $(($CURRENT_SIZE / 1048576)), fix this issue as well.

In this patch just call monitor_dd_progress when core_collector is not

bdb3042f07 kexec-tools.spec: replaces scriptlets with new systemd macros
Fedora 18 changes the way how to work with services in spec files.
It introduces new macros - %systemd_post, %systemd_preun and
%systemd_postun. These macros are functionally equivalent to the
manual scriptlets used in older versions of Fedora.

By using the new unified RPM macros the .spec file code is
simplified a lot.
