[PATCH] x86/boot/KASLR: Skip relocation handling in no kaslr case
From: Baoquan He
Date: Sat Jun 24 2017 - 10:16:44 EST
Kdump kernel will reset to firmware after crash is trigered when
crashkernel=xxM,high is added to kernel command line. Kexec has the
same phenomenon. This only happened on system with kaslr code
compiled in and kernel option 'nokaslr'is added. Both of them works
well when kaslr is enabled.
When crashkernel high is set or kexec case, kexec/kdump kernel will be
put above 4G. Since we assign the original loading address of kernel to
virt_addr as initial value, the virt_addr will be larger than 1G if kaslr
is disabled, it exceeds the kernel mapping size which is only 1G. Then
it will cause relocation handling error in handle_relocations().
In fact this is a known issue and fixed in commit:
... f285f4a ("x86, boot: Skip relocs when load address unchanged")
But above fix was lost carelessly in later commit:
... 8391c73 ("x86/KASLR: Randomize virtual address separately")
To fix it, just assign LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR to virt_addr as initial value.
If no kaslr is taken, it will skip the relocation handling and jump out.
Fixes: 8391c73 ("x86/KASLR: Randomize virtual address separately")
