[Impact]
Linux kernel 6.2 includes patches with structural changes that may render the crash utility unable to parse the dump file.
==========
d122019bf061 mm: Split slab into its own type
401fb12c68c2 mm: Differentiate struct slab fields by sl*b implementations
07f910f9b729 mm: Remove slab from struct page
0d9b1ffefabe arm64: mm: make vabits_actual a build time constant if possible
e36ce448a08d mm/slab: use kmalloc_node() for off slab freelist_idx_t array allocation
130d4df57390 mm/sl[au]b: rearrange struct slab fields to allow larger rcu_head
ac3b43283923 module: replace module_layout with module_memory
b69f0aeb0689 pid: Replace struct pid 1-element array with flex-array
==========
[Fix]
It is advisable to adopt commits that address the structural changes issue.
==========
[v8.0.0]
14f8c460473c memory: Handle struct slab changes on Linux 5.17-rc1 and later
5f390ed811b0 Fix for "kmem -s|-S" and "bt -F[F]" on Linux 5.17-rc1
b89f9ccf511a Fix for "kmem -s|-S" on Linux 5.17+ with CONFIG_SLAB
[v8.0.1]
f02c8e87fccb arm64: use TCR_EL1_T1SZ to get the correct info if vabits_actual is missing
[v8.0.2]
d83df2fb66cd SLUB: Fix for offset change of struct slab members on Linux 6.2-rc1
df1f0cba729f x86_64: Fix for move of per-cpu variables into struct pcpu_hot
120d6e89fc14 SLAB: Fix for "kmem -s|-S" options on Linux 6.1 and later
ac96e17d1de5 SLAB: Fix for "kmem -s|-S" options on Linux 6.2-rc1 and later
7750e61fdb2a Support module memory layout change on Linux 6.4
88580068b7dd Fix failure of gathering task table on Linux 6.5-rc1 and later
4ee56105881d Fix compilation error due to new strlcpy function that glibc added
==========
[Test Plan]
1. Install the required packages and then proceed to reboot the machine.
# sudo apt install crash linux-crashdump -y
# reboot
2. To check the status of kdump, use the `kdump-config show` command.
# kdump-config show
DUMP_MODE: kdump
USE_KDUMP: 1
KDUMP_COREDIR: /var/crash
crashkernel addr: 0x64000000
/var/lib/kdump/vmlinuz: symbolic link to /boot/vmlinuz-6.2.0-33-generic
kdump initrd:
/var/lib/kdump/initrd.img: symbolic link to /var/lib/kdump/initrd.img-6.2.0-33-generic
current state: ready to kdump
kexec command:
/sbin/kexec -p --command-line="BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-6.2.0-33-generic root=UUID=3e72f5d5-870b-4b8e-9a0d-8ba920391379 ro console=tty1 console=ttyS0 reset_devices systemd.unit=kdump-tools-dump.service nr_cpus=1 irqpoll usbcore.nousb" --initrd=/var/lib/kdump/initrd.img /var/lib/kdump/vmlinuz
3. To trigger a crash dump forcefully, execute the `echo c | sudo tee /proc/sysrq-trigger` command.
4. Download the kernel .ddeb file, which will be used for analyzing the dump file.
# sudo -i
# cd /var/crash
# pull-lp-ddebs linux-image-unsigned-$(uname -r)
# dpkg-deb -x linux-image-unsigned-$(uname -r)-*.ddeb dbgsym-$(uname -r)
5. Utilize the "crash" utility to parse and analyze the dump file.
