Previously this series was two separate series: * Arch section support Adds the possibility for arch code to add custom section data.
* s390 PV dump support Adds PV dump data to the custom arch sections. I've chosen to merge them so it's easier to understand why the arch section support has been implement the way it is. Additionally I've added cleanup patches beforehand which clean up the GuestPhysBlock usage. v4: * Moved the ELF note type introduction to the header sync * Split the iteration re-work into more patches * Added missing Rev-bys * Moved the introduction of section_offset to the patch where it's first used * Removed the buffer from prepare_elf_section_hdr_zero() * Removed buff argument from prepare_elf_section_hdr_zero() * Renamed some of the pv functions v3: * I forgot to reserve the new ELF note so I'm currently discussing its name and over which tree it will be pulled with the kernel devs * Split code into "dump: Rename write_elf_loads to write_elf_phdr_loads" * Refined a lot of the commit messages * Split the string table patch into two: the swap of the section/segment and the string table support * Renamed write_elf_section_hdr_zero() to prepare_elf_section_hdr_zero() * Removed rogue code from "dump/dump: Add arch section support" v2: * Added "dump: Cleanup memblock usage" * Fixed whitespace problems and review comments * Added missing *errp check in dump_end Janosch Frank (17): dump: Rename write_elf_loads to write_elf_phdr_loads dump: Introduce GuestPhysBlock offset and length filter functions dump: Convert GuestPhysBlock iterators and use the filter functions dump: Rework get_start_block dump: Cleanup and annotate guest memory related DumpState struct members dump: Rework dump_calculate_size function dump: Allocate header dump: Split write of section headers and data and add a prepare step dump: Reorder struct DumpState dump: Swap segment and section header locations dump/dump: Add section string table support dump/dump: Add arch section support linux header sync s390x: Add protected dump cap s390x: Introduce PV query interface s390x: Add KVM PV dump interface s390x: pv: Add dump support dump/dump.c | 458 +++++++++++++++++++++++------------ hw/s390x/pv.c | 112 +++++++++ hw/s390x/s390-virtio-ccw.c | 5 + include/elf.h | 2 + include/hw/s390x/pv.h | 18 ++ include/sysemu/dump-arch.h | 27 +++ include/sysemu/dump.h | 37 ++- linux-headers/linux/kvm.h | 54 +++++ target/s390x/arch_dump.c | 248 ++++++++++++++++--- target/s390x/kvm/kvm.c | 7 + target/s390x/kvm/kvm_s390x.h | 1 + 11 files changed, 767 insertions(+), 202 deletions(-) -- 2.34.1
