[RFC v12][PATCH 06/14] Dump memory address space

Oren Laadan orenl at cs.columbia.edu
Mon Dec 29 01:16:19 PST 2008


For each VMA, there is a 'struct cr_vma'; if the VMA is file-mapped,
it will be followed by the file name. Then comes the actual contents,
in one or more chunk: each chunk begins with a header that specifies
how many pages it holds, then the virtual addresses of all the dumped
pages in that chunk, followed by the actual contents of all dumped
pages. A header with zero number of pages marks the end of the contents.
Then comes the next VMA and so on.

Changelog[v12]:
  - Hide pgarr management inside cr_private_vma_fill_pgarr()
  - Fix management of pgarr chain reset and alloc/expand: keep empty
    pgarr in a pool chain
  - Replace obsolete cr_debug() with pr_debug()

Changelog[v11]:
  - Copy contents of 'init->fs->root' instead of pointing to them.
  - Add missing test for VM_MAYSHARE when dumping memory

Changelog[v10]:
  - Acquire dcache_lock around call to __d_path() in cr_fill_name()

Changelog[v9]:
  - Introduce cr_ctx_checkpoint() for checkpoint-specific ctx setup
  - Test if __d_path() changes mnt/dentry (when crossing filesystem
    namespace boundary). for now cr_fill_fname() fails the checkpoint.

Changelog[v7]:
  - Fix argument given to kunmap_atomic() in memory dump/restore

Changelog[v6]:
  - Balance all calls to cr_hbuf_get() with matching cr_hbuf_put()
    (even though it's not really needed)

Changelog[v5]:
  - Improve memory dump code (following Dave Hansen's comments)
  - Change dump format (and code) to allow chunks of <vaddrs, pages>
    instead of one long list of each
  - Fix use of follow_page() to avoid faulting in non-present pages

Changelog[v4]:
  - Use standard list_... for cr_pgarr
