From 0935288c6e008c0682ab6171fb5605dcc049e7bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vijay Balakrishna Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2020 18:36:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] kdump: append kernel build-id string to VMCOREINFO Make kernel GNU build-id available in VMCOREINFO. Having build-id in VMCOREINFO facilitates presenting appropriate kernel namelist image with debug information file to kernel crash dump analysis tools. Currently VMCOREINFO lacks uniquely identifiable key for crash analysis automation. Regarding if this patch is necessary or matching of linux_banner and OSRELEASE in VMCOREINFO employed by crash(8) meets the need -- IMO, build-id approach more foolproof, in most instances it is a cryptographic hash generated using internal code/ELF bits unlike kernel version string upon which linux_banner is based that is external to the code. I feel each is intended for a different purpose. Also OSRELEASE is not suitable when two different kernel builds from same version with different features enabled. Currently for most linux (and non-linux) systems build-id can be extracted using standard methods for file types such as user mode crash dumps, shared libraries, loadable kernel modules etc., This is an exception for linux kernel dump. Having build-id in VMCOREINFO brings some uniformity for automation tools. Tyler said: : I think this is a nice improvement over today's linux_banner approach for : correlating vmlinux to a kernel dump. : : The elf notes parsing in this patch lines up with what is described in in : the "Notes (Nhdr)" section of the elf(5) man page. : : BUILD_ID_MAX is sufficient to hold a sha1 build-id, which is the default : build-id type today in GNU ld(2). It is also sufficient to hold the : "fast" build-id, which is the default build-id type today in LLVM lld(2).
