x86/resctrl: Add task resctrl information display

2020-01-20T15:19:10+00:00

Monitoring tools that want to find out which resctrl control and monitor groups a task belongs to must currently read the "tasks" file in every group until they locate the process ID. Add an additional file /proc/{pid}/cpu_resctrl_groups to provide this information: 1) res: mon: resctrl is not available. 2) res:/ mon: Task is part of the root resctrl control group, and it is not associated to any monitor group. 3) res:/ mon:mon0 Task is part of the root resctrl control group and monitor group mon0. 4) res:group0 mon: Task is part of resctrl control group group0, and it is not associated to any monitor group. 5) res:group0 mon:mon1 Task is part of resctrl control group group0 and monitor group mon1.

vmcore: add a kernel parameter novmcoredd

2019-07-17T02:23:21+00:00

Since commit 2724273e8fd0 ("vmcore: add API to collect hardware dump in second kernel"), drivers are allowed to add device related dump data to vmcore as they want by using the device dump API. This has a potential issue, the data is stored in memory, drivers may append too much data and use too much memory. The vmcore is typically used in a kdump kernel which runs in a pre-reserved small chunk of memory. So as a result it will make kdump unusable at all due to OOM issues. So introduce new 'novmcoredd' command line option. User can disable device dump to reduce memory usage. This is helpful if device dump is using too much memory, disabling device dump could make sure a regular vmcore without device dump data is still available.

proc: Add /proc//arch_status

2019-06-12T09:42:13+00:00

Exposing architecture specific per process information is useful for various reasons. An example is the AVX512 usage on x86 which is important for task placement for power/performance optimizations. Adding this information to the existing /prcc/pid/status file would be the obvious choise, but it has been agreed on that a explicit arch_status file is better in separating the generic and architecture specific information.

proc/kcore: add vmcoreinfo note to /proc/kcore

2018-08-22T17:52:46+00:00

The vmcoreinfo information is useful for runtime debugging tools, not just for crash dumps. A lot of this information can be determined by other means, but this is much more convenient, and it only adds a page at most to the file.

vmcore: add API to collect hardware dump in second kernel

2018-05-14T17:46:04+00:00

The sequence of actions done by device drivers to append their device specific hardware/firmware logs to /proc/vmcore are as follows: 1. During probe (before hardware is initialized), device drivers register to the vmcore module (via vmcore_add_device_dump()), with callback function, along with buffer size and log name needed for firmware/hardware log collection. 2. vmcore module allocates the buffer with requested size. It adds an Elf note and invokes the device driver's registered callback function. 3. Device driver collects all hardware/firmware logs into the buffer and returns control back to vmcore module. Ensure that the device dump buffer size is always aligned to page size so that it can be mmaped. Also, rename alloc_elfnotes_buf() to vmcore_alloc_buf() to make it more generic and reserve NT_VMCOREDD note type to indicate vmcore device dump. Suggested-by: Eric Biederman .
