arm64: kexec: have own crash_smp_send_stop() for crash dump for nonpanic cores
Commit 0ee5941 : (x86/panic: replace smp_send_stop() with kdump friendly version in panic path) introduced crash_smp_send_stop() which is a weak function and can be overridden by architecture codes to fix the side effect caused by commit f06e515 : (kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_ notifiers" option). ARM64 architecture uses the weak version function and the problem is that the weak function simply calls smp_send_stop() which makes other CPUs offline and takes away the chance to save crash information for nonpanic CPUs in machine_crash_shutdown() when crash_kexec_post_notifiers kernel option is enabled. Calling smp_send_crash_stop() in machine_crash_shutdown() is useless because all nonpanic CPUs are already offline by smp_send_stop() in this case and smp_send_crash_stop() only works against online CPUs. The result is that secondary CPUs registers are not saved by crash_save_cpu() and the vmcore file misreports these CPUs as being offline. crash_smp_send_stop() is implemented to fix this problem by replacing the existing smp_send_crash_stop() and adding a check for multiple calling to the function. The function (strong symbol version) saves crash information for nonpanic CPUs and machine_crash_shutdown() tries to save crash information for nonpanic CPUs only when crash_kexec_post_notifiers kernel option is disabled. * crash_kexec_post_notifiers : false panic() __crash_kexec() machine_crash_shutdown() crash_smp_send_stop() <= save crash dump for nonpanic cores * crash_kexec_post_notifiers : true panic() crash_smp_send_stop() <= save crash dump for nonpanic cores __crash_kexec() machine_crash_shutdown() crash_smp_send_stop() <= just return.
