    RISC-V: Add fast call path of crash_kexec() · 3f190111
    Xianting Tian authored
    Currently, almost all archs (x86, arm64, mips...) support fast call
    of crash_kexec() when "regs && kexec_should_crash()" is true. But
    RISC-V not, it can only enter crash system via panic(). However panic()
    doesn't pass the regs of the real accident scene to crash_kexec(),
    it caused we can't get accurate backtrace via gdb,
    	$ riscv64-linux-gnu-gdb vmlinux vmcore
    	Reading symbols from vmlinux...
    	[New LWP 95]
    	#0  console_unlock () at kernel/printk/printk.c:2557
    	2557                    if (do_cond_resched)
    	(gdb) bt
    	#0  console_unlock () at kernel/printk/printk.c:2557
    	#1  0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
    
    With the patch we can get the accurate backtrace,
    	$ riscv64-linux-gnu-gdb vmlinux vmcore
    	Reading symbols from vmlinux...
    	[New LWP 95]
    	#0  0xffffffe00063a4e0 in test_thread (data=<optimized out>) at drivers/test_crash.c:81
    	81             *(int *)p = 0xdead;
    	(gdb)
    	(gdb) bt
    	#0  0xffffffe00064d5c0 in test_thread (data=<optimized out>) at drivers/test_crash.c:81
    	#1  0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
    
    Test code to produce NULL address dereference in test_crash.c,
    	void *p = NULL;
    	*(int *)p = 0xdead;
