[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH v3] xen: add support for automatic debug key actions in case of crash
When the host crashes it would sometimes be nice to have additional
debug data available which could be produced via debug keys, but
halting the server for manual intervention might be impossible due to
the need to reboot/kexec rather sooner than later.
Add support for automatic debug key actions in case of crashes which
can be activated via boot- or runtime-parameter.
Depending on the type of crash the desired data might be different, so
support different settings for the possible types of crashes.
The parameter is "crash-debug" with the following syntax:
crash-debug-<type>=<string>
with <type> being one of:
panic, hwdom, watchdog, kexeccmd, debugkey
and <string> a sequence of debug key characters with '+' having the
special semantics of a 10 millisecond pause.
So "crash-debug-watchdog=0+0qr" would result in special output in case
of watchdog triggered crash (dom0 state, 10 ms pause, dom0 state,
domain info, run queues).

V2:
- switched special character '.' to '+' (Jan Beulich)
- 10 ms instead of 1 s pause (Jan Beulich)
- added more text to the boot parameter description (Jan Beulich)
V3:
- added const (Jan Beulich)
- thorough test of crash reason parameter (Jan Beulich)
- kexeccmd case should depend on CONFIG_KEXEC (Jan Beulich)
- added dummy get_irq_regs() helper on Arm

+> Can be modified at runtime
+
+Specify debug-key actions in cases of crashes. Each of the parameters applies
+to a different crash reason. The `<string>` is a sequence of debug key
+characters, with `+` having the special meaning of a 10 millisecond pause.
+
+`crash-debug-debugkey` will be used for crashes induced by the `C` debug
+key (i.e. manually induced crash).
+
+`crash-debug-hwdom` denotes a crash of dom0.
+
+`crash-debug-kexeccmd` is an explicit request of dom0 to continue with the
+kdump kernel via kexec. Only available on hypervisors built with CONFIG_KEXEC.
+
+`crash-debug-panic` is a crash of the hypervisor.
+
+`crash-debug-watchdog` is a crash due to the watchdog timer expiring.
+
+It should be noted that dumping diagnosis data to the console can fail in
+multiple ways (missing data, hanging system, ...) depending on the reason
+of the crash, which might have left the hypervisor in a bad state.
+
+So e.g. `crash-debug-watchdog=0+0r` would dump dom0 state twice with 10
+milliseconds between the two state dumps, followed by the run queues of the
+hypervisor, if the system crashes due to a watchdog timeout.
+
+These parameters should be used carefully, as e.g. specifying
+`crash-debug-debugkey=C` would result in an endless loop. Depending on the
+reason of the system crash it might happen that triggering some debug key
+action will result in a hang instead of dumping data and then doing a
+reboot or crash dump.
