PStore parameters can be set in U-Boot configuration file, or at run-time using "pstore set" command. Records size should be the same as the ones used by kernel, and should be a power of 2. This command allows: - to display uncompressed logs - to save compressed or uncompressed logs, compressed logs are saved as a compressed stream, it may need some work to be able to decompress it, e.g. adding a fake header: "printf "\x1f\x8b\x08\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" | cat - dmesg-ramoops-0.enc.z | gzip -dc" - ECC part is not used to check memory corruption - only 1st FTrace log is displayed or saved Signed-off-by: Frédéric Danis --- cmd/Kconfig | 71 +++++++ cmd/Makefile | 1 + cmd/pstore.c | 505 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ doc/index.rst | 7 + doc/pstore.rst | 74 ++++++++ 5 files changed, 658 insertions(+) create mode 100644 cmd/pstore.c create mode 100644 doc/pstore.rst diff --git a/cmd/Kconfig b/cmd/Kconfig index 6403bc45a5..cd202bf7fb 100644 --- a/cmd/Kconfig +++ b/cmd/Kconfig @@ -1736,6 +1736,77 @@ config CMD_QFW feature is to allow easy loading of files passed to qemu-system via -kernel / -initrd +config CMD_PSTORE + bool "pstore" + help + This provides access to Linux PStore with Rammoops backend.

This command allows to read those records from U-Boot command +line. + +Ramoops is an oops/panic logger that writes its logs to RAM before the system +crashes. It works by logging oopses and panics in a circular buffer. Ramoops +needs a system with persistent RAM so that the content of that area can survive +after a restart. + +Ramoops uses a predefined memory area to store the dump. + +Ramoops parameters can be passed as kernel parameters or through Device Tree, +i.e.:: + ramoops.mem_address=0x30000000 ramoops.mem_size=0x100000 ramoops.record_size=0x2000 ramoops.console_size=0x2000 memmap=0x100000$0x30000000 + +The same values should be set in U-Boot to be able to retrieve the records. +This values can be set at build time in U-Boot configuration file, or at runtime. + +The PStore configuration parameters are: + +======================= ========== + Name Default +======================= ========== +CMD_PSTORE_MEM_ADDR +CMD_PSTORE_MEM_SIZE 0x10000 +CMD_PSTORE_RECORD_SIZE 0x1000 +CMD_PSTORE_CONSOLE_SIZE 0x1000 +CMD_PSTORE_FTRACE_SIZE 0x1000 +CMD_PSTORE_PMSG_SIZE 0x1000 +CMD_PSTORE_ECC_SIZE 0 +======================= ========== + +Records sizes should be a power of 2. +The memory size and the record/console size must be non-zero. + +Multiple 'dump' records can be stored in the memory reserved for PStore. +The memory size has to be larger than the sum of the record sizes, i.e.:: + MEM_SIZE >= RECORD_SIZE * n + CONSOLE_SIZE + FTRACE_SIZE + PMSG_SIZE + +Usage +----- + +Generate kernel crash +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +For test purpose, you can generate a kernel crash by setting reboot timeout to +10 seconds and trigger a panic:: + $ sudo sh -c "echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq" + $ sudo sh -c "echo 10 > /proc/sys/kernel/panic" + $ sudo sh -c "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger" + +Retrieve logs in U-Boot +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +First of all, unless PStore parameters as been set during U-Boot configuration +and match kernel ramoops parameters, it needs to be set using 'pstore set', e.g.:: + => pstore set 0x30000000 0x100000 0x2000 0x2000 + +Then all available dumps can be displayed +using:: + => pstore display + +Or saved to an existing directory in an Ext2 or Ext4 partition, e.g. on root +directory of 1st partition of the 2nd MMC:: + => pstore save mmc 1:1 /
