如何手动触发物理机panic，并产生vmcore
如何手动触发物理机panic，并产生vmcore?
1. 配置kdump
1.1 el6
如果是CentOS 6 则编辑/boot/grub/grub.conf配置在内核参数中添加 crashkernel=auto 类似如下
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-xxx.el6.x86_64 ro root=LABEL=/ crashkernel=auto ...
1.2 el7
如果是CentOS 7 则编辑/etc/default/grub修改GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX行添加crashkernel=auto类似如下
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="crashkernel=auto ..."
1.3 只要修改/etc/default/grub修改GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX行 ,就需要重新生成grub配置：
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
如果你遇到服务器极不稳定，需要在系统hung住时候立即crash掉系统生成kernel core dump，则需要使用NMI watchdog，则需要在内核参数中再加上 nmi_watchdog=1 激活watchdog（这样就不需要时时盯着服务器来手工触发core）
重启服务器使得以上配置生效
2. kdump涉及的sysctl 配置
查阅了网上很多有关kdump的资料，发现在配置kdump时，对sysctl.conf 内的一些配置也进行了调整。这里也列举下，可以根据具体的情况酌情进行修改。
如下参数也都可以在/etc/default/grub修改GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX行添加
kernel.sysrq=1
kernel.unknown_nmi_panic=1
kernel.softlockup_panic=1
2.1 sysrq
kernel.sysrq=1，如果通过/proc文件配置 ，上面的配置等价于echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq .
默认SysRQ(/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq)设置值是16. 修改这个值为1激活SysRq来触发core dump
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
此时在带外可以看到
[1290981.013642] SysRq : Trigger a crash
[1290981.018405] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
[1290981.028007] IP: [<ffffffff813ed756>] sysrq_handle_crash+0x16/0x20
然后切换到kdump内核并进行 vmcore 存储
Starting Kdump Vmcore Save Service...
[ 7.200189] BTRFS info (device sda4): disk space caching is enabled
kdump: saving to /kdumproot/data//127.0.0.1-2017-01-18-23:33:42/
kdump: saving vmcore-dmesg.txt
kdump: saving vmcore-dmesg.txt complete
kdump: saving vmcore
Copying data : [100.0 %] \
kdump: saving vmcore complete
打开sysrq键的功能以后，有终端访问权限的用户将会拥有一些特别的功能。如果系统出现挂起的情况或在诊断一些和内核相关，
使用这些组合键能即时打印出内核的信息。
因此，除非是要调试，解决问题，一般情况下，不要打开此功能。如果一定要打开，请确保你的终端访问的安全性。
2.2 kernel.unknown_nmi_panic
kernel.unknown_nmi_panic=1 ,如果系统已经是处在Hang的状态的话，那么可以使用NMI按钮来触发Kdump。
开启这个选项可以：echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/unknown_nmi_panic 需要注意的是，启用这个特性的话，是不能够同时启用NMI_WATCHDOG的！否则系统会Panic！
2.3 kernel.softlockup_panic
kernel.softlockup_panic=1,其对应的是/proc/sys/kernel/softlockup_panic的值，值为1可以让内核在死锁或者死循环的时候可以宕机重启。如果你的机器中安装了kdump，在重启之后，你会得到一份内核的core文件，这时从core文件中查找问题就方便很多了，而且再也不用手动重启机器了。如果你的内核是标准内核的话，可以通过修改/proc/sys/kernel/softlockup_thresh来修改超时的阈值，如果是CentOS内核的话，对应的文件是/proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_thresh。
2.4 nmi watchdog
2.4.1 编译支持
在很多x86/x86-64类型的硬件中提供了一个功能可以激活watchdog NMI interrupts（NMI：不可屏蔽中断在系统非常困难时依然可以执行）。这个功能可以用来debug内核异常。通过周期性执行MNI中断，内核可以见识任何CPU思索并且打印出相应的debug信息。
为了使用NMI watchdog，你需要在内核激活APIC支持。对于SMP内核，APIC支持已经自动编译进内核。即在内核配置中：
CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC (Processor type and features -> Local APIC support on uniprocessors)
或
CONFIG_X86_UP_IOAPIC (Processor type and features -> IO-APIC support on uniprocessors)
2.4.2 开启
在 x86 平台，nmi_watchdog默认是关闭的，你需要在启动参数中激活它。
动态修改：
也可以通过对/proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog写入0来在运行时关闭NMI watchdog。而写入1这个文件则可以重新激活NMI watchdog。
永久修改：
需要在启动时使用nmi_watchdog=X参数来激活NMI watchdog，否则无法动态修改。
#grep NMI /proc/interrupts
NMI: 2 1 0 5 1 0 1 1 0 1 2 0 0 12 1 1 0 0 0 5 1 1 0 0 Non-maskable interrupts
2.4.3 nmi watchdog触发kernel crash
当系统挂起并且通常中断都被禁止的故障时，可以通过不可屏蔽中断（non maskable interrupt, NMI）来触发一个panic以及获得crash dump。有两种方式来触发一个NMI，不过这两个方法不能同时使用。
3. 手动触发有两个方法：
3.1 方法1：使用/proc/sysrq-trigger
echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
echo c | sudo tee /proc/sysrq-trigger
3.2 方法2: 开启nmi
假如，希望机器A 接受nmi后panic
登录A：
echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/unkown_nmi_panic
A的oob IP： 100.126.xx.xx
登录A的机房所在的oob跳板机：
接下来就可以通过网络使用IPMI远程发送unknown_nmi_panic信号给服务器触发kernel core dump

4. crash进行结果分析
crash包需要yum -y install crash 单独安装过，另外crash 命令需要依赖kernel-debuginfo 包（该包又依赖kernel-debuginfo-common包），该包的下载地址：http://debuginfo.centos.org/6/x86_64/ 。
下载前先要确认下自己主机的内核版本。我在测试机上是通过下面的命令执行的：
el6
# uname -r
2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64
# wget http://debuginfo.centos.org/6/x86_64/kernel-debuginfo-common-x86_64-2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64.rpm
# wget http://debuginfo.centos.org/6/x86_64/kernel-debuginfo-2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64.rpm
el7
http://debuginfo.centos.org/7/x86_64/
crash分析案例1
下载完成后，通过rpm -ivh将这两个包安装。然后通过下面的命令进行crash分析
# pwd
