2018-01-02dump: fix note_name_equal()Marc-André Lureau
Use the function argument "name" instead of hardcoded "VMCOREINFO". All callers use "VMCOREINFO" as argument, so this isn't an exposed bug, thankfully. Simplify a little bit the code while touching this.

2014-11-02dump: Fix dump-guest-memory termination and use-after-closeGonglei
dump_iterate() dumps blocks in a loop. Eventually, get_next_block() returns "no more". We then call dump_completed(). But we neglect to break the loop! Broken in commit 4c7e251a. Because of that, we dump the last block again. This attempts to write to s->fd, which fails if we're lucky. The error makes dump_iterate() return failure. It's the only way it can ever return. Theoretical: if we're not so lucky, something else has opened something for writing and got the same fd. dump_iterate() then keeps looping, messing up the something else's output, until a write fails, or the process mercifully terminates. The obvious fix is to restore the return lost in commit 4c7e251a. But the root cause of the bug is needlessly opaque loop control. Replace it by a clean do ... while loop. This makes the badly chosen return values of get_next_block() more visible. Cleaning that up is outside the scope of this bug fix.

Considering the current targets that support dumping, cpu_get_dump_info() works as follows: - target-s390x/arch_dump.c: (EM_S390, ELFCLASS64) only - target-ppc/arch_dump.c (EM_PPC64, ELFCLASS64) only - target-i386/arch_dump.c: sets (EM_X86_64, ELFCLASS64) vs. (EM_386, ELFCLASS32) keying off the same Long Mode Active flag.

2014-06-11dump: eliminate DumpState.page_size ("guest's page size")Laszlo Ersek
Use TARGET_PAGE_SIZE and ~TARGET_PAGE_MASK instead. "DumpState.page_size" has type "size_t", whereas TARGET_PAGE_SIZE has type "int". TARGET_PAGE_MASK is of type "int" and has negative value. The patch affects the implicit type conversions as follows: - create_header32() and create_header64(): assigned to "block_size", which has type "uint32_t". No change. - get_next_page(): "block->target_start", "block->target_end" and "addr" have type "hwaddr" (uint64_t). Before the patch, - if "size_t" was "uint64_t", then no additional conversion was done as part of the usual arithmetic conversions, - If "size_t" was "uint32_t", then it was widened to uint64_t as part of the usual arithmetic conversions, for the remainder and addition operators. After the patch, - "~TARGET_PAGE_MASK" expands to ~~((1 << TARGET_PAGE_BITS) - 1). It has type "int" and positive value (only least significant bits set). That's converted (widened) to "uint64_t" for the bit-ands. No visible change. - The same holds for the (addr + TARGET_PAGE_SIZE) addition. - write_dump_pages(): - TARGET_PAGE_SIZE passed as argument to a bunch of functions that all have prototypes. No change. - When incrementing "offset_data" (of type "off_t"): given that we never build for ILP32_OFF32 (see "-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" in configure), "off_t" is always "int64_t", and we only need to consider: - ILP32_OFFBIG: "size_t" is "uint32_t". - before: int64_t += uint32_t. Page size converted to int64_t for the addition. - after: int64_t += int32_t. No change. - LP64_OFF64: "size_t" is "uint64_t". - before: int64_t += uint64_t. Offset converted to uint64_t for the addition, then the uint64_t result is converted to int64_t for storage. - after: int64_t += int32_t. Same as the ILP32_OFFBIG/after case. No visible change. - (size_out < s->page_size) comparisons, and (size_out = s->page_size) assignment: - before: "size_out" is of type "size_t", no implicit conversion for either operator. - after: TARGET_PAGE_SIZE (of type "int" and positive value) is converted to "size_t" (for the relop because the latter is one of "uint32_t" and "uint64_t"). No visible change. - dump_init(): - DIV_ROUND_UP(DIV_ROUND_UP(s->max_mapnr, CHAR_BIT), s->page_size): The innermost "DumpState.max_mapnr" field has type uint64_t, which propagates through all implicit conversions at hand: #define DIV_ROUND_UP(n,d) (((n) + (d) - 1) / (d)) regardless of the page size macro argument's type. In the outer macro replacement, the page size is converted from uint32_t and int32_t alike to uint64_t. - (tmp * s->page_size) multiplication: "tmp" has size "uint64_t"; the RHS is converted to that type from uint32_t and int32_t just the same if it's not uint64_t to begin with.

functions are used to write 1st and 2nd dump_bitmap of kdump-compressed format, which is used to indicate whether the corresponded page is existed in vmcore. 1st and 2nd dump_bitmap are same, because dump level is specified to 1 here.

the functions are used to write header of kdump-compressed format to vmcore.

2014-02-28dump: add API to write elf notes to bufferqiaonuohan
the function can be used by write_elf32_notes/write_elf64_notes to write notes to a buffer. If fd_write_vmcore is used, write_elf32_notes/write_elf64_notes will write elf notes to vmcore directly. Instead, if buf_write_note is used, elf notes will be written to opaque->note_buf at first.

Function is used to write vmcore in flatten format. In flatten format, data is written block by block, and in front of each block, a struct MakedumpfileDataHeader is stored there to indicate the offset and size of the data block. struct MakedumpfileDataHeader { int64_t offset; int64_t buf_size; }; Signed-off-by: Qiao Nuohan <qiaonuohan@cn.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Laszlo Ersek <lersek@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com>

flatten format will be used when writing kdump-compressed format. The format is also used by makedumpfile, you can refer to the following URL to get more detailed information about flatten format of kdump-compressed format: http://sourceforge.net/projects/makedumpfile/ The two functions here are used to write start flat header and end flat header to vmcore, and they will be called later when flatten format is used. struct MakedumpfileHeader stored at the head of vmcore is used to indicate the vmcore is in flatten format. struct MakedumpfileHeader { char signature[16]; /* = "makedumpfile" */ int64_t type; /* = 1 */ int64_t version; /* = 1 */ }; And struct MakedumpfileDataHeader, with offset and buf_size set to -1, is used to indicate the end of vmcore in flatten format. struct MakedumpfileDataHeader { int64_t offset; /* = -1 */ int64_t buf_size; /* = -1 */ }; Signed-off-by: Qiao Nuohan <qiaonuohan@cn.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Laszlo Ersek <lersek@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com>
