* kexec: allocate the kexec control page with KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_GFPMartin Schwidefsky2015-04-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_GFP to allow the architecture code to override the gfp flags of the allocation for the kexec control page. The loop in kimage_alloc_normal_control_pages allocates pages with GFP_KERNEL until a page is found that happens to have an address smaller than the KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT. On systems with a large memory size but a small KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT the loop will keep allocating memory until the oom killer steps in.

* kexec: simplify conditionalGeoff Levand2015-02-171-7/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Simplify the code around one of the conditionals in the kexec_load syscall routine. The original code was confusing with a redundant check on KEXEC_ON_CRASH and comments outside of the conditional block. This change switches the order of the conditional check, and cleans up the comments for the conditional. There is no functional change to the code.

* kexec: remove never used member destination in kimageBaoquan He2015-02-171-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct kimage has a member destination which is used to store the real destination address of each page when load segment from user space buffer to kernel. But we never retrieve the value stored in kimage->destination, so this member variable in kimage and its assignment operation are redundent code. I guess for_each_kimage_entry just does the work that kimage->destination is expected to do. So in this patch just make a cleanup to remove it. Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

* kexec: take the segment adding out of locate_mem_hole functionsBaoquan He2014-10-141-21/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In locate_mem_hole functions, a memory hole is located and added as kexec_segment. But from the name of locate_mem_hole, it should only take responsibility of searching a available memory hole to contain data of a specified size. So in this patch add a new field 'mem' into kexec_buf, then take that kexec segment adding code out of locate_mem_hole_top_down and locate_mem_hole_bottom_up. This make clear of the functionality of locate_mem_hole just like it declars to do. And by this locate_mem_hole_callback chould be used later if anyone want to locate a memory hole for other use. Meanwhile Vivek suggested opening code function __kexec_add_segment(), that way we have to retreive ksegment pointer once and it is easy to read. So just do it in this patch and remove __kexec_add_segment() since no one use it anymore. Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Eric W.

* kexec: create a new config option CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE for new syscallVivek Goyal2014-08-291-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently new system call kexec_file_load() and all the associated code compiles if CONFIG_KEXEC=y. But new syscall also compiles purgatory code which currently uses gcc option -mcmodel=large. This option seems to be available only gcc 4.4 onwards. Hiding new functionality behind a new config option will not break existing users of old gcc. Those who wish to enable new functionality will require new gcc. Having said that, I am trying to figure out how can I move away from using -mcmodel=large but that can take a while. I think there are other advantages of introducing this new config option. As this option will be enabled only on x86_64, other arches don't have to compile generic kexec code which will never be used. This new code selects CRYPTO=y and CRYPTO_SHA256=y. And all other arches had to do this for CONFIG_KEXEC. Now with introduction of new config option, we can remove crypto dependency from other arches. Now CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is available only on x86_64. So whereever I had CONFIG_X86_64 defined, I got rid of that. For CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE, instead of doing select CRYPTO=y, I changed it to "depends on CRYPTO=y". This should be safer as "select" is not recursive. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: H.

* kexec: verify the signature of signed PE bzImageVivek Goyal2014-08-081-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the final piece of the puzzle of verifying kernel image signature during kexec_file_load() syscall. This patch calls into PE file routines to verify signature of bzImage. If signature are valid, kexec_file_load() succeeds otherwise it fails. Two new config options have been introduced. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled. But that will happen when secureboot patches are merged. Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option enables signature verification support on bzImage. If this option is not set and previous one is set, kernel image loading will fail because kernel does not have support to verify signature of bzImage. I tested these patches with both "pesign" and "sbsign" signed bzImages. I used signing_key.priv key and signing_key.x509 cert for signing as generated during kernel build process (if module signing is enabled). Used following method to sign bzImage. pesign ====== - Convert DER format cert to PEM format cert openssl x509 -in signing_key.x509 -inform DER -out signing_key.x509.PEM -outform PEM - Generate a .p12 file from existing cert and private key file openssl pkcs12 -export -out kernel-key.p12 -inkey signing_key.priv -in signing_key.x509.PEM - Import .p12 file into pesign db pk12util -i /tmp/kernel-key.p12 -d /etc/pki/pesign - Sign bzImage pesign -i /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ -o /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.pesign -c "Glacier signing key - Magrathea" -s sbsign ====== sbsign --key signing_key.priv --cert signing_key.x509.PEM --output /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.sbsign /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ Patch details: Well all the hard work is done in previous patches. Now bzImage loader has just call into that code and verify whether bzImage signature are valid or not. Also create two config options. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled. But that will happen when secureboot patches are merged. Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option enables signature verification support on bzImage. If this option is not set and previous one is set, kernel image loading will fail because kernel does not have support to verify signature of bzImage.

Relocation code has been inspired by module relocation code and purgatory relocation code in kexec-tools. Also compute the checksums of loaded kexec segments and store them in purgatory.

* kexec: use common function for kimage_normal_alloc() and kimage_crash_alloc()Vivek Goyal2014-08-081-71/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kimage_normal_alloc() and kimage_crash_alloc() are doing lot of similar things and differ only little. So instead of having two separate functions create a common function kimage_alloc_init() and pass it the "flags" argument which tells whether it is normal kexec or kexec_on_panic. And this function should be able to deal with both the cases. This consolidation also helps later where we can use a common function kimage_file_alloc_init() to handle normal and crash cases for new file based kexec syscall.

* kexec: move segment verification code in a separate functionVivek Goyal2014-08-081-82/+100
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously do_kimage_alloc() will allocate a kimage structure, copy segment list from user space and then do the segment list sanity verification. Break down this function in 3 parts. do_kimage_alloc_init() to do actual allocation and basic initialization of kimage structure. copy_user_segment_list() to copy segment list from user space and sanity_check_segment_list() to verify the sanity of segment list as passed by user space. In later patches, I need to only allocate kimage and not copy segment list from user space. So breaking down in smaller functions enables re-use of code at other places.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PG_head_mask was added into VMCOREINFO to filter huge pages in b3acc56bfe1 ("kexec: save PG_head_mask in VMCOREINFO"), but makedumpfile still need another symbol to filter *hugetlbfs* pages. If a user hope to filter user pages, makedumpfile tries to exclude them by checking the condition whether the page is anonymous, but hugetlbfs pages aren't anonymous while they also be user pages. We know it's possible to detect them in the same way as PageHuge(), so we need the start address of free_huge_page(): int PageHuge(struct page *page) { if (!PageCompound(page)) return 0; page = compound_head(page); return get_compound_page_dtor(page) == free_huge_page; } For that reason, this patch changes free_huge_page() into public to export it to VMCOREINFO.

* kexec: save PG_head_mask in VMCOREINFOPetr Tesarik2014-06-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To allow filtering of huge pages, makedumpfile must be able to identify them in the dump. This can be done by checking the appropriate page flag, so communicate its value to makedumpfile through the VMCOREINFO interface. There's only one small catch. Depending on how many page flags are available on a given architecture, this bit can be called PG_head or PG_compound. I sent a similar patch back in 2012, but Eric Biederman did not like using an #ifdef. So, this time I'm adding a common symbol (PG_head_mask) instead.

Note that only the sibling threads are stuck, while the primary threads (0, 8, 16 etc) boot just fine. Looking closer at the previous step of kexec, we observe that kexec tries to wakeup (bring online) the sibling threads of all the cores, before performing kexec: [ 9464.131231] Starting new kernel [ 9464.148507] kexec: Waking offline cpu 1.

[ 9464.148994] kexec: Waking offline cpu 15. [ 9464.149030] kexec: Waking offline cpu 17. Instrumenting this piece of code revealed that the cpu_up() operation actually fails with -EBUSY. Thus, only the primary threads of all the cores are online during kexec, and hence this is a sure-shot receipe for disaster, as explained in commit e8e5c2155b (powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across kexec), as well as in the comment above wake_offline_cpus(). It turns out that cpu_up() was returning -EBUSY because the variable 'cpu_hotplug_disabled' was set to 1; and this disabling of CPU hotplug was done by migrate_to_reboot_cpu() inside kernel_kexec(). Now, migrate_to_reboot_cpu() was originally written with the assumption that any further code will not need to perform CPU hotplug, since we are anyway in the reboot path. However, kexec is clearly not such a case, since we depend on onlining CPUs, atleast on powerpc. So re-enable cpu-hotplug after returning from migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in the kexec path, to fix this regression in kexec on powerpc. Also, wrap the cpu_up() in powerpc kexec code within a WARN_ON(), so that we can catch such issues more easily in the future.

* kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of module_init in core codePaul Gortmaker2014-04-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code that is obj-y (always built-in) or dependent on a bool Kconfig (built-in or absent) can never be modular. So using module_init as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading. Fix these up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing. The audit targets the following module_init users for change: kernel/user.c obj-y kernel/kexec.c bool KEXEC (one instance per arch) kernel/profile.c bool PROFILING kernel/hung_task.c bool DETECT_HUNG_TASK kernel/sched/stats.c bool SCHEDSTATS kernel/user_namespace.c bool USER_NS Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of subsys_initcall (which makes sense for these files) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level 4-subsys (i.e. slightly earlier). However no observable impact of that difference has been observed during testing. Also, two instances of missing ";" at EOL are fixed in kexec.

* kexec: add sysctl to disable kexec_loadKees Cook2014-01-231-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For general-purpose (i.e. distro) kernel builds it makes sense to build with CONFIG_KEXEC to allow end users to choose what kind of things they want to do with kexec. However, in the face of trying to lock down a system with such a kernel, there needs to be a way to disable kexec_load (much like module loading can be disabled). Without this, it is too easy for the root user to modify kernel memory even when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM and modules_disabled are set. With this change, it is still possible to load an image for use later, then disable kexec_load so the image (or lack of image) can't be altered. The intention is for using this in environments where "perfect" enforcement is hard. Without a verified boot, along with verified modules, and along with verified kexec, this is trying to give a system a better chance to defend itself (or at least grow the window of discoverability) against attack in the face of a privilege escalation. In my mind, I consider several boot scenarios: 1) Verified boot of read-only verified root fs loading fd-based verification of kexec images. 2) Secure boot of writable root fs loading signed kexec images. 3) Regular boot loading kexec (e.g. kcrash) image early and locking it. 4) Regular boot with no control of kexec image at all. 1 and 2 don't exist yet, but will soon once the verified kexec series has landed. 4 is the state of things now. The gap between 2 and 4 is too large, so this change creates scenario 3, a middle-ground above 4 when 2 and 1 are not possible for a system.

* kexec: migrate to reboot cpuVivek Goyal2013-12-181-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 1b3a5d02ee07 ("reboot: move arch/x86 reboot= handling to generic kernel") moved reboot= handling to generic code. In the process it also removed the code in native_machine_shutdown() which are moving reboot process to reboot_cpu/cpu0. I guess that thought must have been that all reboot paths are calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu(), so we don't need this special handling. But kexec reboot path (kernel_kexec()) is not calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() so above change broke kexec. Now reboot can happen on non-boot cpu and when INIT is sent in second kerneo to bring up BP, it brings down the machine. So start calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in kexec reboot path to avoid this problem. Bisected by WANG Chao.

* PCI: Disable Bus Master only on kexec rebootKhalid Aziz2013-12-071-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a flag to tell the PCI subsystem that kernel is shutting down in preparation to kexec a kernel. Add code in PCI subsystem to use this flag to clear Bus Master bit on PCI devices only in case of kexec reboot. This fixes a power-off problem on Acer Aspire V5-573G and likely other machines and avoids any other issues caused by clearing Bus Master bit on PCI devices in normal shutdown path. The problem was introduced by b566a22c2332 ("PCI: disable Bus Master on PCI device shutdown").

* kexec: add the values related to buddy system for filtering free pages.Atsushi Kumagai2013-02-271-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tAdd adds the values related to buddy system to vmcoreinfo data so that makedumpfile (dump filtering command) can filter out all free pages with the new logic. It's faster than the current logic because it can distinguish free page by analyzing page structure at the same time as filtering for other unnecessary pages (e.g. anonymous page). OTOH, the current logic has to trace free_list to distinguish free pages while analyzing page structure to filter out other unnecessary pages. The new logic uses the fact that buddy page is marked by _mapcount == PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE. But, _mapcount shares its memory with other fields for SLAB/SLUB when PG_slab is set, so we need to check if PG_slab is set or not before looking up _mapcount value. And we can get the order of buddy system from private field. To sum it up, the values below are required for this logic. Required values: - OFFSET(page._mapcount) - OFFSET(page.private) - NUMBER(PG_slab) - NUMBER(PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE) Changelog from v1 to v2: 1. remove SIZE(pageflags) The new logic was changed after I sent v1 patch. Accordingly, SIZE(pageflags) has been unnecessary for makedumpfile. What's makedumpfile: makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile by excluding unnecessary pages for the analysis. To distinguish unnecessary pages, makedumpfile gets the vmcoreinfo data which has the minimum debugging information only for dump filtering.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During kdump kernel's booting stage, it need to find low ram for swiotlb buffer when system does not support intel iommu/dmar remapping. kexed-tools is appending memmap=exactmap and range from /proc/iomem with "Crash kernel", and that range is above 4G for 64bit after boot protocol 2.12. We need to add another range in /proc/iomem like "Crash kernel low", so kexec-tools could find that info and append to kdump kernel command line. Try to reserve some under 4G if the normal "Crash kernel" is above 4G. User could specify the size with crashkernel_low=XX[KMG]. -v2: fix warning that is found by Fengguang's test robot. -v3: move out get_mem_size change to another patch, to solve compiling warning that is found by Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> -v4: user must specify crashkernel_low if system does not support intel or amd iommu.
