Fri Jun 1 09:20:03 UTC 2012 - dmair@suse.com
- Update to crash 6.0.7 from upstream and adjust patches to apply
without offsets. Upstream changes:
o Enhanced the search command to allow the searched-for value to
be entered as a crash (expression) or a kernel symbol name. The
resultant value of an (expression) or kernel symbol value must
fit into in the designated value size if -w or -h are used, and
neither variant may be used with the -c option. If found, both
the resultant value and the argument input string will be
displayed next to the target address(es).
o Added a new "search -t" option that will restrict the search to
the kernel stack pages of all tasks. If one or more matches
are found in a task's kernel stack, the output is preceded with
a task-identifying header.
o Fix for the s390x "bt -[tT]" options when run on an active task
on a live system. Without the patch, the options fail with the
message "bt: invalid/stale stack pointer for this task: 0".
o Fix for s390x "vm -p" option, which may show invalid user to
physical address translation data if a page is not mapped.
Without the patch, a page's translation may indicate
"<address> SWAP: (unknown swap location) OFFSET: 0",
or show an incorrect swap offset on an actual swap device.
o Added new "vm -[xd]" options to be used in conjunction with
"vm -[mv]", which override the current default output format
with hexadecimal or decimal format for just the command instance.
Without the patch, it would require changing the default output
format with "hex" or "dec" prior to executing "vm -[mv]". The
new flags may also be used with "foreach vm -[mv]".
o Fix for the s390x "vm -p" and "vtop -u <user-address>" commands
if the page containing the relevant PTE is not mapped. Without
the patch, the commands fail with the error message "vm: read
error: kernel virtual address: 0 type: entry" or "vtop: read
error: kernel virtual address: 0 type: entry"
o Fix for the s390x "vm -p" command and "vtop -u <user-address>"
commands to properly translate pages that are swapped out into
their swap file and offset. Without the patch, the swap file
and offset would not be displayed.
o Added new "list -[xd]" options to be used in conjunction with
"list -s", which override the current default output format
with hexadecimal or decimal format for just the command instance.
Without the patch, it would require changing the default output
format with "hex" or "dec" prior to executing "list -s".
o Added new "net -[xd]" options to be used in conjunction with
"net -S", which override the current default output format
with hexadecimal or decimal format for just the command instance.
Without the patch, it would require changing the default output
format with "hex" or "dec" prior to executing "net -S". The new
flags may also be used with "foreach net -S".
o Added new "mach -[xd]" options to be used in conjunction with
"mach -c", which override the current default output format
with hexadecimal or decimal format for just the command instance.
Without the patch, it would require changing the default output
format with "hex" or "dec" prior to executing "mach -c".
o If the value read from the cpu online, present, or possible masks
contains a cpu bit value that is outside the architecture's maximum
NR_CPUS value, print a warning message during invocation. Without
the patch, a corrupt vmcore containing a bogus mask value could
quietly corrupt heap memory.
o Add support to for reading dumpfiles compressed by LZO using
makedumpfile version 1.4.4 or later. This feature is disabled by
default. To enable this feature, build the crash utility in the
following manner:
(1) Install the LZO libraries by using the host system's package
manager or by directly downloading libraries from author's
website. The packages required are:
- lzo
- lzo-minilzo
- lzo-devel
The author's website is: http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo
(2) Create a CFLAGS.extra file and an LDFLAGS.extra file in top-level
crash sources directory:
- enter -DLZO in the CFLAGS.extra file
- enter -llzo2 in the LDFLAGS.extra file.
(3) Build crash with "make" as always.
* Only available as a source option for manual build in this
environment
o Fix for the included "trace" extension module. Without the patch,
if the module initialization sequence fails, a double-free in the
module may lead to a subsequent malloc() segmentation violation
in the crash session.
o Incorporated the "ipcs" extension module written by Qiao Nuohan
as a built-in command. The command displays the kernel's usage
of the System V shared memory, semaphore and message queue IPC
facilities. It differs from the original extension module by
fixing a failure scenario if the current task is exiting, and
adds a "-n pid|task" option, which displays the IPCS facilities
with respect to the namespace of a given pid or task.
o Fix for a gdb-7.3.1 regression that causes the line number capability
to fail with certain ranges of x86 base kernel text addresses.
Without the patch, the "dis -l <symbol>" or "sym <symbol>"
commands would fail to show line number information for certain
ranges of base kernel text addresses.
o Added a new "printm" command to the embedded gdb module. It
is currently only used by the "pstruct" extension module, but
can be used to dump the type, size, offset, bitpos and bitsize
values of an expression.
o Added a new "runq -t" option that displays the timestamp information
of each cpu's runqueue, which consists of either the rq.clock, the
rq.most_recent_timestamp or rq.timestamp_last_tick value, whichever
applies. Following each cpu timestamp is the last_run or timestamp
value of the active task on that cpu, whichever applies, along with
the task identification.
o Fix for an initialization-time warning when running on a live system
with the most recent version of the modprobe command, which no longer
supports the -l and --type options. The modprobe is used to detect
whether the crash.ko memory driver is part of the distribution.
Without the patch, a warning message is issued that indicates
"/sbin/modprobe: invalid option -- 'l'". If the driver is built into
the kernel, the message is harmless. If the driver is not built into
kernel, then the crash.ko (/dev/crash) driver would not be selected
as the live memory source.

- delete crash-foreach-match-running.patch: upstream
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May 14 20:24:51 UTC 2012 - dmair@suse.com
- Update to crash 6.0.6 from upstream
o Extend the supported cross-architecture build capability so
that it applies to the SIAL extentension module. Without the
patch, when building the SIAL module an environment where the
overlying crash utility was built with "make target=ARM",
"make target=PPC", or "make target=X86", the SIAL extension
module would continue to be built for the host architecture
o Fixes for memory leaks and possible segmentation violations
when unloading SIAL extension module scripts.
o Fix for the new "foreach RU" task state qualifier. Without the
patch, the runnable tasks are not selected.
o Fix to disallow multiple task states from being entered using
the "foreach <task-state>" qualifier. Without the patch, if
multiple states were entered, the last one on the command line
would be honored.
o Fix for the "extend" command to allow the usage of 32-bit PPC
extension modules. Without the patch, the command fails with the
message: "extend: <object>.so: not an ELF format object file".
o If an input line starts with "#" or "//", then the line will be
saved as a comment that is visible when re-cycling through the
command history list.
o Fix for a crash-5.1.9 regression that broke the "bt -g" option.
Without the patch, the option is ignored completely.
o Fix for s390x virtual-to-physical translation of virtual
addresses that are backed by 1MB pages.
o The s390x has a dumpfile method that creates "live dumps", where
the kernel continues to run while the dumpfile is being created.
The initial system banner display and the "sys" command will
inform the user that the dumpfile is a "[LIVE DUMP]", and the
"bt -a" option will fail with the message "bt: -a option not
supported on a live system or live dump".
o Newly-created dumpfiles generated by the "snap.c" extension module
will now be recognized as "live dumps". Accordingly, the initial
system banner display and the "sys" command will inform the user
that the dumpfile is a "[LIVE DUMP]", and the "bt -a" option will
fail with the message "bt: -a option not supported on a live
system or live dump".
o If "bt" alone is attempted on an active task in a "live dump", it
will indicate "(active)", i.e., the same as if it were attempted
on a live system.
o If an extension module does not define the appropriate architecture,
i.e., "-DX86", "-DX86_64", etc., then the inclusion of "defs.h"
will generate a compiler failure indicating "error: 'NR_CPUS'
undeclared here (not in a function)". In that case, the
architecture will now default to that of the host machine.
o Prevent a highly-unlikely incorrect calculation of the maximum
cpudata array length of a kmem_cache during initialization of
of CONFIG_SLAB kernels.
o Prevent an infinite loop during the initialization of the
kmem_cache subsystem in CONFIG_SLAB kernels if the cache list or
the vmcore is corrupt. If the kmem_cache list links back into
itself, messages showing the first "duplicate" entry in the list
and "crash: unable to initialize kmem slab cache subsystem" will
be displayed.
o Update to the "mod" command to additionally search for module
object files in the directory containing the kernel namelist
(vmlinux) file. This will allow an alternate module-debuginfo
directory tree to be set up like so:
# cd <directory>
# rpm2cpio kernel-debuginfo-<release>.rpm | cpio -idv
Having done that, and by referencing the vmlinux file in that
directory tree directly or by symbolic link, the "mod" command
will search for module object files starting from the directory
containing the vmlinux file if they are not found in the standard
/lib/modules/<release> directory.
o Update to the s390x "bt" command if a task was running in
userspace. Without the patch, the back trace display ended at the
kernel entry function frame; with the patch, the user space PSW
register is displayed with a "(user space)" tag, followed by the
general purpose register set.
o In the unlikely event that the access of ARM or x86_64 kernel
unwind table data fails during crash invocation, print a warning
message and allow the crash session to continue. Without the
patch, the crash session would fail immediately.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Mar 27 16:30:23 UTC 2012 - dmair@suse.com
- Update to crash 6.0.5 from upstream and adjust patch positions
to match current crash source.
6.0.5 changelog is:
o Enhancement to the "foreach" command to allow any of the "name"
arguments to be POSIX extended regular expressions. The
expression string must be encompassed by "'" characters, and
will be matched against the names of all tasks.
o Fix for the embedded gdb module's "ptype" command, and by
extension, the crash utility's "struct" command, to be able to
fully display embedded structure or union members of a
structure/union. Without the patch, if a structure or union is
a member of a structure or union that is a member of a
structure or union, then it is displayed as "struct {...}" or
"union {...}".
o Extend the "ps -l" output to also display the task state next
to its last_run/timestamp value.
o Enhancement to the "foreach" command which adds a new "state"
task-indentifier argument that filters tasks by their task
state. The state argument may be any of the task states
displayed by the "ps" command: RU, IN, UN, ST, ZO, SW or DE.
o Implemented a new pc->cmd_cleanup function pointer and an
optional pc->cmd_cleanup_arg argument that will allow any
command to register a function and an optional argument that
will be called after a command has completed successfully, or
more likely, unsuccessfully. Normally the only cleanup required
for a command is the freeing of buffers that were allocated
with GETBUF(), but that is performed automatically after each
command is run. However, with the introduction of the new
POSIX regular expression functionality of the "foreach"
command, there needed to be a way to call regfree() in the case
where where regcomp() was called successfully, but then the
command later encountered one of several fatal error
conditions. This facility is also available for use by
extension module commands.
o Enforce the usage of a kernel thread's pgd from its active_mm
for the ARM "vtop -c" command; if its active_mm is NULL, make
the command fail similarly to the other architectures,
displaying the error message "vtop: no active_mm for this
kernel thread".
o Fix for the x86_64 "bt" command running against recent kernels
if an active task was operating on its IRQ stack when the crash
occurred. Without the patch, the determination of the IRQ
exception frame was off-by-8, displaying invalid register data
and the error message "bt: WARNING: possibly bogus exception
frame".
o Update to handle the vfsmount structure change in 3.3 kernels,
in which most members of the vfsmount structure have been moved
into a new "struct mount", and the vfsmount structure has been
embedded in the new mount structure. Without the patch, the
following commands will fail, displaying the following error
messages:
mount: "mount: invalid structure member offset: vfsmount_mnt_list"
files: "files: invalid structure member offset: dentry_d_covers"
vm: "vm: invalid structure member offset: dentry_d_covers"
swap: "swap: invalid structure member offset: dentry_d_covers
fuser: "files: invalid structure member offset: dentry_d_covers"
The "fuser" command generates the above error because it uses
the "files" command behind the scenes.
o Fix for the "ps" command to prevent the display of "??" under
the ST (task state) column. Without the patch, in more recent
kernels, if more than one bit were set in the task_struct.state
field, the state would display "??". With the fix, the primary
state will always be displayed.
o Update to the output of the "set" command when it displays a
task's state. Without the patch, if more than one bit was set
in the task_struct.state field, "STATE: (unknown)" would be
displayed. With the fix, all bits in both the task_struct.state
and task_struct.exit_state fields are translated.
o Implemented a new "vm -P <vma-address>" option, which is similar
to "vm -p", but only does the page translations of the specified
VM area of a context.
o Add support for the Freescale PowerPC e500mc version of the E500
processor chipset, and rework the PPC platform-specific code in
order to more easily support new processors.
o Implemented a new "gdb" crash environment variable that can be
used to alter a crash session's behavior such that all commands
are passed directly to the embedded gdb module. The new mode
is turned on and off by entering "set gdb on" and "set gdb off".
When running in this mode, the command prompt will be "gdb>".
In order to execute native crash commands while running in this
mode, precede the command with the "crash" directive, for
example, "crash ps".
o Fix for a "*** stack smashing detected ***: crash terminated"
failure during the initial system banner display on a 32-bit
PPC platform.
o Redesigned/simplified the internal read_string() function to
prevent a potential segmentation violation.
o Updates for the 32-bit PPC "vtop" command output:
(1) Translate kernel virtual addresses for FSL BOOKE by using
the TLBCAM setting
(2) Remove the PMD line from the display
(3) Fix the displayed PHYSICAL values of FSL BOOKE PTE format
o Fix for crash invocation failure on 3.3-era kernels in which
the former standalone "xtime" timespec structure has been moved
into the "timekeeper" structure. Without the patch, the crash
session would fail early on with the message "crash: cannot
resolve: xtime". The patch also prevents the crash session
failure in the unlikely event that the timespec access fails.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Feb 29 22:12:17 UTC 2012 - dmair@suse.com
- Update to crash 6.0.4 from upstream and adjust patch locations
to match current crash source.
6.0.4 changelog is:
o Fix to allow the recently-added "mod -g" and "mod -r" options
to be used together.
o Additional update for 3.1.x and later kernels configured with
CONFIG_SLAB, which have replaced the kmem_cache.nodelists[]
array with a pointer to an outside array.
o Document the "crash [-h|--help] all" option in the crash.8 man
page and in the "crash [-h|--help]" output.
o Fix the S390/S390X-specific "s390dbf" command's "hex_ascii"
debug data printing routine to prevent the display of
non-ASCII characters.
o Fix for ARM stack unwinding on 3.2 and later kernels due to
commit:
http://git.kernel.org/linus/de66a979012dbc66b1ec0125795a3f79ee667b8a
o Implemented a new "search -x <count>" option that displays the
memory contents before and after any found search target.
o Fix for the x86_64 Xen hypervisor "bt" command. Without the
patch, the contents of the RDX register in exception frames
incorrectly shows the contents of the RCX register.
o Implementation of a platform-based vmalloc address translation
scheme for the 32-bit PPC architecture, introducing suppport
for the PPC44X platform while maintaining the current default
platform.
o Fix for the usage of native gdb commands where the command
output is redirected to a pipe and then redirected to a file.
o Fix to prevent a crash session that is run over a network
connection that is killed/removed from going into 100%
cpu-time loop.
o Fix for the support of PPC64 compressed kdumps, a regression
that was introduced in crash-6.0.3 when support for 32-bit PPC
compressed kdumps was implemented.
o Fix for the x86_64 "bt" command to prevent the possible
skipping of the stack frame just above an exception frame that
indicates "[exception RIP: unknown or invalid address]".
Patches with modified target locations are:
crash-make-emacs-default.diff
crash-sles9-time.patch
crash-crosscrash-hint.diff
crash-missing-declarations.patch
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 7 16:31:37 UTC 2012 - dmair@suse.com

data
o Fix for the "kmem -[sS]", "kmem -[fF]" and "kmem <address>"
options in 3.2 kernels
o Addition of a set of dumpfile read diagnostic debug statements
o Fix for X86 kernels that have CONFIG_X86_32,
CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM, CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM_MANUAL and CONFIG_NUMA
all configured
o Fix for the "vtop" command on large NUMA X86 kernels where a
node's starting physical address is larger than 32-bits
o Update for the ARM architecture to recognize a recent change
of its vmlinux section name from ".init" to ".init.text"
o Significant speed increase of the "kmem -p" command, especially
on large-memory systems
o Implemented new "irq -a" and "irq -s" options
o Removal of a redundant read of the kernel's __per_cpu_offset
pointers in the ARM architecture's arm_get_crash_notes()
function
o Fix for an ARM architecture segmentation violation because of a
stack overflow due to recursion in the page table translation
code
o Fix for the the "FREE HIGH" tally in the X86 "kmem -i" display
o Fix for the "kmem -n" output display for 32-bit architectures
that are configured with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM
o Cleanup of several SIAL extension module files to address bison
2.5 and gcc 4.4.3 compile-time warnings
o Fix for "net -[sS]" command options on the ARM architecture
o Fix for the ARM "bt" command to allow the core kernel unwind
tables to be used in cases where the module unwind tables are
inaccessible
o Implementation of a new "dev -d" option that displays disk
device I/O statistics
o Update for 3.1.x and later kernels configured with CONFIG_SLAB,
which have replaced the kmem_cache.nodelists[] array with a
pointer to an outside array
o Implemented build and code for analysis of 32-bit PPC
compressed kdump vmcores
o Prevent the "runq" command from dumping an unending loop of
tasks if the CFS runqueue has been corrupted
o Repurposed/renamed the rarely-used and rarely-needed "mod -r"
option to "mod -R"
o Implemented a new "mod -r" option, which will pass the
"-readnow" flag to the embedded gdb module, which will override
the two-stage strategy that it uses for reading symbol tables
from module object files
o Performance increase for the "kmem -s <address>" option on
kernels configured with CONFIG_SLAB, most notably on kernels
whose kmem_cache.array[NR_CPUS] array is several pages in size
o Require that the "<slabname>" argument to "kmem -s <slabname>"
be escaped with a '\' character in two situations:
(1) in the highly-unlikely case of a kmem_cache slab named
"list", to prevent the ambiguity with the "kmem -s list"
command option.
(2) if the first character of the <slabname> actually is a '\'
character
Modifications to compile are as follows:
o Replacement of crash-6.0.2.tar.gz with crash-6.0.3.tar.gz
o Remove crash-wrong-memset.patch the fix is present in 6.0.3

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 3 20:09:41 UTC 2011 - dmair@novell.com
- Update to 5.1.1
o Fix for the potential to miss tasks when walking the pid_hash
table in 2.6.24 and later kernels. Without the patch, the task
will simply not be seen in the gathered task list.
o Enhancement for the ARM architecture's "bt" command to print
out the user space register set for tasks entering the kernel
via the syscall entry point.
o Rework of the handling of "set" commands that are put in
.crashrc files so that only the following options are resolved
prior to session initialization: silent, console, core, edit,
namelist, and zero_excluded. All others are resolved
immediately after session initialization is complete.
Accordingly, the use of "set -c <cpu>", "set -p",
"set -a [task|pid]" and set [pid|task]" are now acceptable
.crashrc commands.
o The entering of "set -v" in a .crashrc file would cause an
immediate segmentation violation. The "set" command rework
above defers the command until session initialization is
complete.
o The entering of "set dumpfile <filename>" in a .crashrc file
would cause a fatal "seek" error during session initalization
with most most dumpfile types, so the "dumpfile" option has
been removed from the "set" command.
o The execution of "alias" commands from a .crashrc file used to
be performed immediately; that behavior has been changed so
that they are executed immediately after session initialization
is complete.
o Enhancement of the "repeat" command to allow command aliases.
o Fix for running "kmem -s" on a live system if an offline cpu is
brought back online while the command is executing. Without
the patch, the online operation may cause a segmentation
violation.
o Change the behavior of "bt -[tT]" to allow the command options
to be run on active tasks on live systems. Without the patch,
both command options would display the task data banner
followed by "(active)".
o Fix for the ARM architecuture's "irq" command when run on
2.6.36 and later kernels. Without the patch, the command fails
with the error message "irq: invalid kernel virtual address: 23
type: irq_chip typename". The fix replaces the custom ARM IRQ
dumping function with the architecture-neutral version.
o Introduced support for using /proc/kcore as an alternative
source of live memory to /dev/mem. Doing so allows vmalloc
memory access on 32-bit architectures when the underlying
mapped physical memory is in highmem, which is not allowed by
the /dev/mem driver. It would also be usable on systems that
are configured with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM but still configured
with CONFIG_PROC_KCORE. To enforce the use of /proc/kcore, it
may be entered on the command line.
o If a live crash session attempts to use /dev/mem as a live
memory source, and it is determined that the system is
configured with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, /proc/kcore will
automatically be tried as an alternative.
o Fix to allow "/dev/crash" to be entered on the command line for
live sessions. Because it is used automatically if it exists,
it is never necessary to enter it on the command line. However,
if it is used, without the patch, the session fails during
initializaion with the error message "crash: /dev/crash: No
such file or directory" if the crash.ko driver is a module, or
"crash: /dev/crash: not a supported file format" if the driver
is built into the kernel.
o Fix for the ARM "bt" command to address the issue behind faulty
warning messages that indicate "WARNING: UNWIND: unsupported
personality routine".
o Fix for the ARM "bt" command to address the issue behind faulty
warning messages that indicate "bt: WARNING: UNWIND: cannot
find index for <address>".

corrupt, or in a state of flux, and cannot be followed.
o Support newer "virsh dump"-generated KVM formats that may
contain "block" and "kvmclock" devices in the dumpfile header.

which no longer prefixes "per_cpu__" to declared per-cpu symbol
names.
o Fix for "swap" and "kmem -i" commands on 2.6.29 or later,
big-endian, ppc64 kernels, where the swap_info_struct.flags
member was changed from an int to a long.
o Fix for the "vm" and "ps" command's task RSS value on 2.6.34
or later kernels.
o Fixed "possible aternatives" spelling typo used in informational

o New option "ps -G" to restrict the process status output to the thread
group leader of a thread group
o Several fixes for the "repeat" command when used in conjunction
with an input file. Without the patch:
- Depending upon the command executed from the input file, a SIGINT
would kill the command currently being executed from the input file,
but the "repeat" command would then restart it.
- If a command in the input file redirected its output to a pipe, the
repeat operation could stop prematurely after executing that particular
command.
- If a command in the input file redirected its output to a pipe, the
zombies of the command being piped to would not be cleaned up until the
repeat command was stopped.
- If the last command in the input file redirected its output to a pipe,
all subsequent executions of the input file would only display the
output of that last command.

descriptor structures that are located beyond a 4GB file offset
in the vmcore file
o Fix the "sym <address>" command option when the address references
a symbol in the vsyscall FIXMAP virtual address page in certain
x86_64 kernel versions
o Multiple fixes for the "bt" command on x86_64:
- properly recognize vsyscall FIXMAP virtual addresses when
encountered as the RIP in an exception frame.
- always use the NMI exception stack when available, not the per-cpu
IRQ stack of an active non-crashing task
- correctly determine the frame just above an IRQ interrupt exception
frame, or above an exception frame that gets handled on the process
stack, such as a page fault
- correctly calculate the frame size to differentiate between text
return addresses and the precise text RIP address of an exception
o Fix usage of a System.map file argument with 2.6.30 and later kernels
to avoid "crash: symbol count overflow (trace_kmalloc)" messages

a page structure address to avoid the annoying "kmem: WARNING:
sparsemem: invalid section number: 8192" messages
o Fix the snap.so extension module when run on pre-2.6.31 x86_64
kernels with more than 4GB of physical memory
o Fix build of the snap.so extension module on older systems

kernels in the reading or translation of vmalloc addresses that are
not in kernel module vmalloc address space
o New command line option "-x" to automatically load extension modules

file referenced by a file descriptor, but the file structure's
f_dentry field is NULL.
