Minidump is a best effort mechanism to collect useful and predefined
data for first level of debugging on end user devices running on
Qualcomm SoCs. It is built on the premise that System on Chip (SoC)
or subsystem part of SoC crashes, due to a range of hardware and
software bugs. Hence, the ability to collect accurate data is only
a best-effort. The data collected could be invalid or corrupted,
data collection itself could fail, and so on.
Qualcomm devices in engineering mode provides a mechanism for
generating full system ramdumps for post mortem debugging. But in some
cases it's however not feasible to capture the entire content of RAM.
The minidump mechanism provides the means for selecting region should
be included in the ramdump. The solution supports extracting the
ramdump/minidump produced either over USB or stored to an attached
storage device.
The core of minidump feature is part of Qualcomm's boot firmware code.
It initializes shared memory(SMEM), which is a part of DDR and
allocates a small section of it to minidump table i.e also called
global table of content (G-ToC). Each subsystem (APSS, ADSP, ...) has
their own table of segments to be included in the minidump, all
references from a descriptor in SMEM (G-ToC). Each segment/region has
some details like name, physical address and it's size etc. and it
could be anywhere scattered in the DDR.
Minidump kernel driver adds the capability to add linux region to be
dumped as part of ram dump collection. It provides appropriate symbol
to check its enablement and register client regions.
To simplify post mortem debugging, it creates and maintain an ELF
header as first region that gets updated with upon registration
of a new region.
