Title:
  Merge kexec-tools 2.0.16-1 from Debian: System hung with Kernel panic
  -not syncing: Out of memory message when crash is triggered.

Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project:
  Fix Released
Status in kexec-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in kexec-tools source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released
Status in kexec-tools source package in Artful:
  Fix Released
Status in kexec-tools source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Latest kexec-tools is needed to load/kexec recent kernels. For older 
releases, like xenial, it's needed to support linux-hwe kernels.

  [Regression Potential]
  It might fail to load the GA kernels, like a 4.4 kernel on xenial.

  [Test case]
  Different kernels on different architectures have been tested.

  Hi Urvashi,

  Tried triggering crash with higher crash kernel parameter like 16384M
  and i see issue recreated like it throws similar messages like
  "uevent: failed to send synthetic uevent" but it rebooted and hangs
  this time while booting.

  This is due to checkstop that occurs on systems with GPUs connected.
  The below two patches are need to fix this:

      kexec-tools: ppc64: avoid adding coherent memory regions to crash
  memory ranges

      Accelerator devices like GPU and FPGA cards contain onboard memory. This
      onboard memory is represented as a memory only NUMA node, integrating it
      with core memory subsystem. Since, the link through which these devices
      are integrated to core memory goes down after a system crash and they are
      meant for user workloads, avoid adding coherent device memory regions to
      crash memory ranges. Without this change, makedumpfile tool tries to save
      unaccessible coherent device memory regions, crashing the system.

      kexec-tools: powerpc: fix command line overflow error

      Since kernel commit a5980d064fe2 ("powerpc: Bump COMMAND_LINE_SIZE
      to 2048"), powerpc bumped command line size to 2048 but the size
      used here is still the default value of 512. Bump it to 2048 to
      fix command line overflow errors observed when command line length
      is above 512 bytes. Also, get rid of the multiple definitions of
      COMMAND_LINE_SIZE macro in ppc architecture.

      kexec-tools: ppc64: fix how RMA top is deduced

      Hang was observed, in purgatory, on a machine configured with
      single LPAR. This was because one of the segments was loaded
      outside the actual Real Memory Area (RMA) due to wrongly
      deduced RMA top value.

      Currently, top of real memory area, which is crucial for loading
      kexec/kdump kernel, is obtained by iterating through mem nodes
      and setting its value based on the base and size values of the
      last mem node in the iteration. That can't always be correct as
      the order of iteration may not be same and RMA base & size are
      always based on the first memory property. Fix this by setting
      RMA top value based on the base and size values of the memory
      node that has the smallest base value (first memory property)
      among all the memory nodes.

      Also, correct the misnomers rmo_base and rmo_top to rma_base
      and rma_top respectively.

      While how RMA top is deduced was broken for sometime, the issue
      may not have been seen so far, for couple of possible reasons:

          1. Only one mem node was available.
          2. First memory property has been the last node in
             iteration when multiple mem nodes were present.

  Hi Indira,

  Installed updated kexec tools (which includes all the 4 patches) in
  the whip system. Please retest and update us with your findings.

  Hi Urvashi,

  I have tried the kdump (triggering crash) test scenario and observed
  below findings

  -->> For both default and 4096M crash kernel parameters system did not
  hang when triggered crash and it booted it up properly but did not
  find /var/crash logs saved.

  Regards,
  Indira

  Hi,
  Urvashi/Indira, that is probably because of the below..

  >[  154.241351] Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000792f88

  The above shows that kdump kernel has failed with OOM.
  Can you try using "crashkernel=8192M" and see if dump capture is successful 
with that?

  Thanks
