Fixes boot failures on 6.9 on PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines using Open Firmware.
On these machines, the kernel refuses to boot from non-zero
PHYSICAL_START, which occurs when CRASH_DUMP is on.
Since most PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines boot via Open Firmware, it should
default to off for them. Users booting via some other mechanism can still
turn it on explicitly.
Does not change the default on any other architectures for the
time being.

kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
|
|
current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
|
|
but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
|
|
you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
|
|
|
|
The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
|
|
|
|
It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
|
|
is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
|
|
initially work for you. As of this writing the exact hardware
|
|
interface is strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be
|
|
made.

This option makes the kexec_file_load() syscall check for a valid

signature of the kernel image. The image can still be loaded without

a valid signature unless you also enable KEXEC_SIG_FORCE, though if
|
|
there's a signature that we can check, then it must be valid.

In addition to this option, you need to enable signature

verification for the corresponding kernel image type being

Generate crash dump after being started by kexec.

This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels
|
|
which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into
|
|
a specially reserved region and then later executed after
|
|
a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
|
|
to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using
|
|
PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image
|
|
(CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y).

For s390, this option also enables zfcpdump.

|
|
For the kexec_file_load() syscall path, specify the maximum number of
|
|
memory regions that the elfcorehdr buffer/segment can accommodate.
|
|
These regions are obtained via walk_system_ram_res(); eg. the
|
|
'System RAM' entries in /proc/iomem.
|
|
This value is combined with NR_CPUS_DEFAULT and multiplied by
|
|
sizeof(Elf64_Phdr) to determine the final elfcorehdr memory buffer/
|
|
segment size.
|
|
The value 8192, for example, covers a (sparsely populated) 1TiB system
|
|
consisting of 128MiB memblocks, while resulting in an elfcorehdr
|
|
memory buffer/segment size under 1MiB. This represents a sane choice
|
|
to accommodate both baremetal and virtual machine configurations.
|
|
|
|
For the kexec_load() syscall path, CRASH_MAX_MEMORY_RANGES is part of
|
|
the computation behind the value provided through the
|
|
/sys/kernel/crash_elfcorehdr_size attribute.
