This patchset implement kexec_file_load() support on riscv, Most of the code is based on the kexec-tool-patch repo developed by Nick Kossifids.
This patch series enables us to load the riscv vmlinux by specifying its file decriptor, instead of user-filled buffer via kexec_file_load() syscall. `` Contrary to kexec_load() system call, we reuse the dt blob of the first kernel to the 2nd explicitly.
To use kexec_file_load() system call, instead of kexec_load(), at kexec command, '-s' options must be specified. The patch for kexec_tools has to be apply to riscv architecture source like this:
int elf_riscv_load(int argc, char **argv, const char *buf, off_t len, ... if (info->file_mode) { return prepare_kexec_file_options(info); } ...
Add following routine to prepare cmdline_ptr, cmdline_len and initrd_fd for syscall kexec_file_load:
int prepare_kexec_file_options(struct kexec_info *info) { int fd; ssize_t result; struct stat stats;
if (arch_options.cmdline) { info->command_line = (char *)arch_options.cmdline; info->command_line_len = strlen(info->command_line) + 1; }
if (!arch_options.initrd_path) { info->initrd_fd = -1; return 0; }
fd = open(arch_options.initrd_path, O_RDONLY | _O_BINARY); if (fd < 0) { fprintf(stderr, "Cannot open `%s': %s\n", arch_options.initrd_path, strerror(errno)); return -EINVAL; } result = fstat(fd, &stats); if (result < 0) { close(fd); fprintf(stderr, "Cannot stat: %s: %s\n", arch_options.initrd_path, strerror(errno)); return -EINVAL; } info->initrd_fd = fd; return 0; }
The basic usage of kexec_file is: 1) Reload capture kernel image: $ kexec -s -l <riscv-vmlinux> --reuse-cmdline
2) Startup capture kernel: $ kexec -e
For kdump: 1) Reload capture kernel image: $ kexec -s -p <riscv-vmlinux> --reuse-cmdline
2) Do something to crash, like: $ echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
v3: * Rebase on v5.18-rc1 * Workaround for -Wmissing-prototypes
v2: * Support kdump * Support purgatory * Minor cleanups
