pstore/platform: Pass max_reason to kmesg dump

2020-05-30T17:34:03+00:00

Add a new member to struct pstore_info for passing information about
kmesg dump maximum reason. This allows a finer control of what kmesg
dumps are sent to pstore storage backends.

Those backends that do not explicitly set this field (keeping it equal to
0), get the default behavior: store only Oopses and Panics, or everything
if the printk.always_kmsg_dump boot param is set.

pstore/platform: Switch pstore_info::name to const

2020-05-30T17:34:02+00:00

In order to more cleanly pass around backend names, make the "name" member
const. This means the module param needs to be dynamic (technically, it
was before, so this actually cleans up a minor memory leak if a backend
was specified and then gets unloaded.)

pstore: Convert buf_lock to semaphore

2018-12-04T01:11:02+00:00

Instead of running with interrupts disabled, use a semaphore. This should
make it easier for backends that may need to sleep (e.g. EFI) when
performing a write:

pstore: Map PSTORE_TYPE_* to strings

2018-12-04T00:52:35+00:00

In later patches we will need to map types to names, so create a
constant table for that which can also be used in different parts of
old and new code. This saves the type in the PRZ which will be useful
in later patches.

Instead of having an explicit PSTORE_TYPE_UNKNOWN, just use ..._MAX.

This includes removing the now redundant filename templates which can use
a single format string. Also, there's no reason to limit the "is it still
compressed?" test to only PSTORE_TYPE_DMESG when building the pstorefs
filename. Records are zero-initialized, so a backend would need to have
explicitly set compressed=1.

pstore: Improve and update some comments and status output

2018-12-04T00:52:35+00:00

This improves and updates some comments:
 - dump handler comment out of sync from calling convention
 - fix kern-doc typo

and improves status output:
 - reminder that only kernel crash dumps are compressed
 - do not be silent about ECC infrastructure failures

pstore/ram: Correctly calculate usable PRZ bytes

2018-11-29T21:46:43+00:00

The actual number of bytes stored in a PRZ is smaller than the
bytes requested by platform data, since there is a header on each
PRZ. Additionally, if ECC is enabled, there are trailing bytes used
as well. Normally this mismatch doesn't matter since PRZs are circular
buffers and the leading "overflow" bytes are just thrown away. However, in
the case of a compressed record, this rather badly corrupts the results.

This corruption was visible with "ramoops.mem_size=204800 ramoops.ecc=1".
Any stored crashes would not be uncompressable (producing a pstorefs
"dmesg-*.enc.z" file), and triggering errors at boot:

  [    2.790759] pstore: crypto_comp_decompress failed, ret = -22!

Backporting this depends on commit 70ad35db3321 ("pstore: Convert console
write to use ->write_buf")

pstore: Populate pstore record->time field

2017-05-31T17:13:44+00:00

The current time will be initially available in the record->time field
for all pstore_read() and pstore_write() calls. Backends can either
update the field during read(), or use the field during write() instead
of fetching time themselves.
