If the CC env variable is not set, this is still a problem. We should not
expect that the CC env variable is always defined(or set).
I would suggest parsing the GDB_CONF_FLAGS to get the target gcc version,
which is visible in the configure.c
What do you think?

[PATCH] vmware_guestdump: Version 7 support
by Alexey Makhalov
ESXi 9.0 updated debug.guest format. CPU architecture type was
introduced and several fields of the header not used by the crash
were moved around. It is version 7 now.
Make corresponding changes in debug.guest parser and keep it
backward compatible with older versions.
Fix comment and log messages typos as well.

[PATCH v2] Use CC env var to get compiler version
by kelefa.sane＠smile.fr
From: Kéléfa Sané <kelefa.sane(a)smile.fr>
The source file build_data.c generated at compilation time define a
variable compiler_version which is obtained by calling "gcc --version"
cmd. This call retrieve the native gcc compiler install on host build
machine but not necessarily the compiler use to build the project (ex:
cross compilation).
The CC env variable commonly used in Makefile project define the
compiler to use at build, so this is the appropriate way to retrieve the
compiler version, when the CC env var is define.

[PATCH] Fix the "ps -m" command shows wrong duration of RU task
by Kenneth Yin
The RU/TASK_RUNNING stat means the task is runnable.
It is either currently running or on a run queue waiting to run.
Currently, the crash tool uses the "rq_clock - sched_info->last_arrival" formula to
calculate the duration of task in RU state. This is for the scenario of a task running on a CPU.
But for the scenario of a task waiting in the CPU run queue (due to some reason
for example cfs/rt queue throttled), this formula could cause misunderstanding.
For example:
[ 220 10:36:38.026] [RU] PID: 12345 TASK: ffff8d674ab6b180 CPU: 1 COMMAND: "task"
Looking closer:
crash> rq.clock ffff8de438a5acc0
clock = 87029229985307234,
crash> task -R sched_info,se.exec_start
PID: 12345 TASK: ffff8d674ab6b180 CPU: 1 COMMAND: "task"
sched_info = {
pcount = 33,
run_delay = 0,
last_arrival = 67983031958439673,
last_queued = 87029224561119369
},
se.exec_start = 67983031958476937,
67983031 67983031 87029224 87029229
|<- running on CPU ->| <- IN ->|<- waiting in queue ->|
For this scenario, the "task" was waiting in the run queue of the CPU only for 5 seconds,
we should use the "rq_clock - sched_info->last_queued" formula.
We can trust sched_info->last_queued as it is only set when the task enters the CPU run queue.
Furthermore, when the task hits/runs on a CPU or dequeues the CPU run queue, it will be reset to 0.
Therefore, my idea is simple:
If a task in RU stat and sched_info->last_queued has value (!= 0),
it means this task is waiting in the run queue, use "rq_clock - sched_info->last_queued".
Otherwise, if a task in RU stat and sched_info->last_queued = 0
and sched_info->last_arrival has value (it must be), it means this task is running on the CPU,
use "rq_clock - sched_info->last_arrival".

[PATCH] arm64: Set VA_BITS_ACTUAL to CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS
by Hong YANG 杨红
Load CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS from vmlinux and set to VA_BITS_ACTUAL.
arm64_calc_VA_BITS() can't find correct VA_BITS for a qemu arm64
ramdump file:
1. The 'vabits_actual' symbol doesn't exist
2. There is no VA_BITS in vmcoreinfo
3. No TCR info (from vmcoreinfo)
4. The VA_BITS_ACTUAL not specified from command line arguements
5. The last code try to cacl it from the symboys address such as
swapper_pg_dir which got a wrong VA_BITS which mismatch with
the CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS
Thus we try to parse CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS from vmlinux before
symtab_init() which would mess with the _stext_vmlinux = UNINITIALIZED
condition.
Using kernel_config_data_end symbol to load config data when available
instead of seaching the magic end string, also restructure related code.
Even further, we can always read kernel config from vmlinux, and we
can verify if the config in vmlinux match with the config in the
core file, which also indicate if the vmlinux match with the core file.
Test:
1. Build an ARM64 kernel with CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS set to 39
2. Run the kernel in qemu and capture a ramdump
(enter qmeu console by ctrl+a c, enter dump-guest-memory -z /home/abc/ramdump.elf)
3. Load the ramdump with crash
before:
crash can't load the dump due to VA_BITS set to 38 by arm64_calc_VA_BITS()
after:
crash set VA_BITS_ACTUAL to CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS (39) thus it works
fine

[PATCH] Use CC env var to get compiler version
by kelefa.sane＠smile.fr
From: Kéléfa Sané <kelefa.sane(a)smile.fr>
The source file build_data.c generated at compilation time define a
variable compiler_version which is obtained by calling "gcc --version"
cmd. This call retrieve the native gcc compiler install on host build
machine but not necessarily the compiler use to build the project (ex:
cross compilation).
The CC env variable commonly used in Makefile project define the
compiler to use at build, so this is the appropriate way to retrieve the
compiler version, when the CC env var is define.

[PATCH] Fix incorrect task state during exit
by Stephen Brennan
task_state() assumes that exit_state is a unsigned long, when in
reality, it has been declared as an int since 97dc32cdb1b53 ("reduce
size of task_struct on 64-bit machines"), in Linux 2.6.22. So on 64-bit
machines, task_state() reads 8 bytes rather than 4, and gets the wrong
exit_state value by including the next field.
This has gone unnoticed because directly after exit_state comes
exit_code, which is generally zero while the task is alive. When the
exit_code is set, exit_state is usually set not long after. Since
task_state_string() only checks whether exit_state bits are set, it
never notices the presence of the exit code inside of the state.
But this leaves open a window during the process exit, when the
exit_code has been set (in do_exit()), but the exit_state has not (in
exit_notify()). In this case, crash reports a state of "??", but in
reality, the task is still running -- it's just running the exit()
system call. This race window can be long enough to be observed in core
dumps, for example if the mmput() takes a long time.
This should be considered a bug. A task state of "??" or "(unknown)" is
frequently of concern when debugging, as it could indicate that the
state fields had some sort of corruption, and draw the attention of the
debugger. To handle it properly, record the size of exit_state, and read
it conditionally as a UINT or ULONG, just like the state. This ensures
we retain compatibility with kernel before v2.6.22. Whether that is
actually desirable is anybody's guess.

[PATCH v2 0/5] gdb multi-stack unwinding support
by Tao Liu
This patchset is based on Alexy's work [1], and is the follow-up of the
previous "gdb stack unwinding support for crash utility" patchset.
Currently gdb target analyzes only one task at a time and it backtraces
only straight stack until end of the stack. If stacks were concatenated
during exceptions or interrupts, gdb bt will show only the topmost one.
This patchset will introduce multiple stacks support for gdb stack unwinding,
which can be observed as a different threads from gdb perspective. A
short usage is as follows:
'set <PID>' - to switch to a specific task
'gdb info threads' - to see list of in-kernel stacks of this task.
'gdb thread <ID>' - to switch to the stack.
'gdb bt' - to unwind it.
E.g, with the patchset:
crash> bt
