Add loongson_kexec_prepare(), loongson_kexec_shutdown() and
loongson_kexec_crashdown() for passing the parameters of kexec_args.
To start loongson64, CPU0 needs 3 parameters:
fw_arg0: the number of cmd.
fw_arg1: cmd structure which seems strange, the cmd array[index]'s
value is cmd string's address, index >= 1.
fw_arg2: environment.
Secondary CPUs do not need parameter at once. They query their
mailbox to get PC, SP and GP in a loop before CPU0 brings them up
and passes these parameters via mailbox.
loongson_kexec_prepare(): Alloc new memory to save cmd for kexec.
Combine the kexec append option string as cmd structure, and the cmd
struct will be parsed in fw_init_cmdline() of
arch/mips/fw/lib/cmdline.c.
image->control_code_page need pointing to a safe memory page. In
order to
maintain compatibility for the old firmware the low 2MB is reserverd
and safe for Loongson. So let it points here.
loongson_kexec_shutdown(): Wake up all present CPUs and let them go
to reboot_code_buffer. Pass the kexec parameters to kexec_args.
loongson_crash_shutdown(): Pass the kdump parameters to kexec_args.
The assembly part provide a way like BIOS doing to keep secondary
CPUs in a querying loop.

Please avoid hardcoded SMP information. You're breaking Loongson
3B support.
Ok, I see. Since my machine is Loongson 3A. I'll send v2
after I test it in 3B.
1, My original version can work on both Loongson-3A and Loongson-3B,
why you modify my patch and hadn't discuss with me?
2, With this single patch both kexec and kdump cannot work reliably,
because kexec need this patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11695929/
and kdump need my first patch in my original version:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10799215/
You may argue that you have tested. Yes, I believe that, I'm not
saying that you haven't test, and I'm not saying that your patch
cannot work, I'm just saying that your patch is not robust.
3, I'm the original author and paying attention to kexec/kdump
continuosly, I will send a new version once the above two patches be
accepted. But you re-send my patch without any communication with me,
why you so impatient?
Huacai
1, Your original version:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10799217/
This patch can work on Loongson-3A, I tested it.
But it works wrong after the follow behaviors,
kexec -l vmlinux --append=cmdline_kexec
kexec -p vmlinux --append=cmdline_kdump
kexec -e
What 's wrong with you Loongson guys? Why do you always send patches
with the same functions as the original author withou any
communication with the original author? Especially the original author
of the patch is the maintainer of Loongson64 architecture.
Hi,
Just take it easy, try to keep calm and do not panic.
You do not understand the story, the background, what happened before,
and what happens next, so please let me express my opinion.
When I use the mainline kernel on the Loongson platform, I find kexec
can not work well and I feel depressed, so I analyse and debug the
related code, the initial aim of all my effort is to make it work well.
In order to create the positive environment of community participation,
I have two questions to discuss:
(1) If there exists a similar patch which is submitted more than one
year ago but has not been merged into the mainline tree, could the
newcomers do the similar work to support the same feature? I think the
answer is yes, right?
(2) When the newcomers submit the new patch to community, what should
be done to avoid an unhappy time? I think this is the nature of the
problem, add "Originally-by:" tag? What do you think of it?
I think we should consider what is the proper attitude to welcome and
encourage newcomers, however terrible or wrong things they did,
everyone needs to have a process of growth, right?
Positive and well-meant suggestions would be much more helpful and
useful to the community in the long run.
In the past year, Loongson employees have been very active. This is a
happy thing, but at the same time, it is confusing that, in addition
to always sending patches that others have already sent, many patches
send by Loongson employees often with only a few lines (less than 10
lines). I don't think this is a normal phenomenon, is this caused by
any other factors? Such as KPIs? If the patches are submitted for this
purpose, it is not advisable, this behavior will harm the entire
Loongson.
Each patch we submitted is to make the kernel code better and better,
even if it is a small cleanup patch.
It works but cmdline_kdump merged cmdline_kexec.
And this patch memcpy from fw_arg2 to kexec_envp and later memcpy from
kexec_envp to fw_arg2 when fw_arg2 was not changed, it's redundant.
However, I have not Loongson-3B now, and did not test it. For this
patch,
does it work well on Loongson-3B3000/Loongson-3B4000?
2, I have known that problem before your patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11695929/
I also did efforts although I had't committed my patch. It's due to the
hardware issues, and I removed pcie_port_device_remove(). Kexec works
normally on GUI. But it works terriblely on CLI. After this discuss:
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1304917/
What Lukas said helped me. I removed
drivers/pci/pci-driver.c: pci_device_shutdown(): pci_clear_master...
Kexec works well on CLI also.
For another patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10799215/
I have not 2way or 4way machine, and I did not test it.
3, I try to fix Loongson64 kexec function since I joined the community.
I fell sorry to not do enough research on Loongson64 kexec. My first
patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11684849/
It fixed problem about "Crash kernel" which can be traced back to
linux-5.4.
At that time, I thought there is no developer work on Kexec. Thus, I
did a
lot on Kexec. Are you really continuosly paying attention to
kexec/kdump?
With the exploring and developing deep, I found your patch several
days ago
after I did a draft patch witch referenced:
arch/mips/cavium-octeon/setup.c
https://gitee.com/loongsonlab/qemu/blob/master/hw/mips/loongson3a_rom.h
There is no doubt that your patch gives me confidence and suggestion
while
it gives me worry. As a newcomer, I do not know if should communicate
with
you since your patch was committed one year ago. And now it may be a
good
chance to do some communication.
Thanks,
- Jinyang.
