2010-07-21x86, UV: Make kdump avoid stack dumpsCliff Wickman
UV NMI callback's should not write stack dumps when a kdump is to be written. When invoking the crash kernel to write a dump, kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus() uses NMI's to get all the cpu's to save their register context and halt. But the NMI interrupt handler runs a callback list. This patch sets a flag to prevent any of those callbacks from interfering with the halt of the cpu. For UV, which currently has the only callback to which this is relevant, the uv_handle_nmi() callback should not do dumping of stacks. The 'in_crash_kexec' flag is defined as an extern in kdebug.h firstly because x2apic_uv_x.c includes it. Secondly because some future callback might need the flag to know that it should not enter the debugger. (Such a scenario was in fact present in the 2.6.32 kernel, SuSE distribution, where a call to kdb needed to be avoided.)

2010-04-07Revert "x86: disable IOMMUs on kernel crash"Chris Wright
This effectively reverts commit 61d047be99757fd9b0af900d7abce9a13a337488. Disabling the IOMMU can potetially allow DMA transactions to complete without being translated. Leave it enabled, and allow crash kernel to do the IOMMU reinitialization properly.

2009-11-08x86: Use x86_platform for iommu_shutdownFUJITA Tomonori
This patch cleans up pci_iommu_shutdown() a bit to use x86_platform (similar to how IA64 initializes an IOMMU driver). This adds iommu_shutdown() to x86_platform to avoid calling every IOMMUs' shutdown functions in pci_iommu_shutdown() in order. The IOMMU shutdown functions are platform specific (we don't have multiple different IOMMU hardware) so the current way is pointless. An IOMMU driver sets x86_platform.iommu_shutdown to the shutdown function if necessary.

2009-06-15x86: disable IOMMUs on kernel crashJoerg Roedel
If the IOMMUs are still enabled when the kexec kernel boots access to the disk is not possible. This is bad for tools like kdump or anything else which wants to use PCI devices. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com>

2008-12-31kdump: forcibly disable VMX and SVM on machine_crash_shutdown()Eduardo Habkost
We need to disable virtualization extensions on all CPUs before booting the kdump kernel, otherwise the kdump kernel booting will fail, and rebooting after the kdump kernel did its task may also fail. We do it using cpu_emergency_vmxoff() and cpu_emergency_svm_disable(), that should always work, because those functions check if the CPUs support SVM or VMX before doing their tasks.

2008-11-12x86: move nmi_shootdown_cpus() to reboot.cEduardo Habkost
Impact: make nmi_shootdown_cpus() available to the rest of the x86 platform Now nmi_shootdown_cpus() is ready to be used by non-kdump code also. Move it to reboot.c. Signed-off-by: Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-11-12x86 kdump: make kdump_nmi_callback() a function ptr on crash_nmi_callback()Eduardo Habkost
Impact: extend nmi_shootdown_cpus() with a callback The reboot code will use a different function on crash_nmi_callback(). Adding a function pointer parameter to nmi_shootdown_cpus() for that. Signed-off-by: Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
