kernel 报错:
FATAL: kernel too old
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00007f00
根本原因是由于 kernel 和 其它软件 版本不匹配造成的。
这里的 “其它软件” 就是 glibc ,因为这行错误是 glibc 报的。
报错代码位置:
第一句报错是glibc的报错:
glibc\sysdeps\unix\sysv\linux\dl-osinfo.h
#define DL_SYSDEP_OSCHECK(FATAL) \
do { \
/* Test whether the kernel is new enough. This test is only performed \
if the library is not compiled to run on all kernels. */ \
\
int version = _dl_discover_osversion (); \
if (__glibc_likely (version >= 0)) \
{ \
if (__builtin_expect (GLRO(dl_osversion) == 0, 1) \
|| GLRO(dl_osversion) > version) \
GLRO(dl_osversion) = version; \
\
/* Now we can test with the required version. */ \
if (__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION > 0 && version < __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION) \
/* Not sufficent. */ \
FATAL ("FATAL: kernel too old\n"); \
} \
else if (__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION > 0) \
FATAL ("FATAL: cannot determine kernel version\n"); \
} while (0)
也就是说,报错的是 /lib/libc-2.xx.so 库。
第二句是kernel自己报的错:
void panic(const char *fmt, ...)
{
static char buf[1024];
va_list args;
long i, i_next = 0;
int state = 0;
int old_cpu, this_cpu;
bool _crash_kexec_post_notifiers = crash_kexec_post_notifiers;
...
...
console_verbose();
bust_spinlocks(1);
va_start(args, fmt);
vsnprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), fmt, args);
va_end(args);
pr_emerg("Kernel panic - not syncing: %s\n", buf);
kernel版本过低导致:一般都是因为 glibc 升级了,而 kernel 还保留旧版本。
kernel 的版本号过高导致:也就是版本号超过了一个字节 256 导致计算错误。比如 4.5.256 就会被 glibc 报错。 这是glibc的代码bug,不是版本不匹配的问题。
问题代码在:
glibc\sysdeps\unix\sysv\linux\dl-sysdep.c:
int
attribute_hidden
_dl_discover_osversion (void)
{
...
char bufmem[64];
char *buf = bufmem;
unsigned int version;
int parts;
char *cp;
struct utsname uts;
/* Try the uname system call. */
if (__uname (&uts))
{
/* This was not successful. Now try reading the /proc filesystem. */
int fd = __open64_nocancel ("**/proc/sys/kernel/osrelease**", O_RDONLY);
if (fd < 0)
return -1;
ssize_t reslen = __read_nocancel (fd, bufmem, sizeof (bufmem));
__close_nocancel (fd);
if (reslen <= 0)
/* This also didn't work. We give up since we cannot
make sure the library can actually work. */
return -1;
buf[MIN (reslen, (ssize_t) sizeof (bufmem) - 1)] = '\0';
}
else
buf = uts.release;
/* Now convert it into a number. The string consists of at most
three parts. */
version = 0;
parts = 0;
cp = buf;
while ((*cp >= '0') && (*cp <= '9'))
{
unsigned int here = *cp++ - '0';
while ((*cp >= '0') && (*cp <= '9'))
{
here *= 10;
here += *cp++ - '0';
}
++parts;
version <<= 8;
version |= here; // 错误代码位置,举例:这里或上 256 的时候,加入中间版本号是奇数,例如 5 ,就变成了加 0 ,导致 4.5.256 被计算成了 4.5.0
if (*cp++ != '.' || parts == 3)
/* Another part following? */
break;
}
if (parts < 3)
version <<= 8 * (3 - parts);
return version;
}
可以拷贝上面代码自己写一个粗略脚本:
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
int
_dl_discover_osversion (void)
{
char bufmem[64];
char *buf = bufmem;
unsigned int version;
int parts;
char *cp;
struct utsname uts;
/* Try the uname system call. */
/* This was not successful. Now try reading the /proc filesystem. */
int fd = open ("./osrelease", O_RDONLY);
if (fd < 0)
return -1;
ssize_t reslen = read (fd, bufmem, sizeof (bufmem));
close (fd);
if (reslen <= 0)
/* This also didn't work. We give up since we cannot
make sure the library can actually work. */
return -1;
buf[MIN (reslen, (ssize_t) sizeof (bufmem) - 1)] = '\0';
/* Now convert it into a number. The string consists of at most
three parts. */
version = 0;
parts = 0;
cp = buf;
while ((*cp >= '0') && (*cp <= '9'))
{
unsigned int here = *cp++ - '0';
while ((*cp >= '0') && (*cp <= '9'))
{
here *= 10;
here += *cp++ - '0';
}
++parts;
version <<= 8;
version |= here;
if (*cp++ != '.' || parts == 3)
/* Another part following? */
break;
}
if (parts < 3)
version <<= 8 * (3 - parts);
return version;
}
int main(){
printf("version=%d\n\n",_dl_discover_osversion());
}
version |= here;
改为:
version += here;
计算就正常,但我还没测试是否会引起其它问题,暂时不这样做。
如果是因为 kernel 版本太低导致不匹配,无法匹配高版本的glibc库,则提高 kernel 版本号或者降低 glibc库 的版本号
解决办法:编译高版本的 kernel,或者替换到更低版本的 libc-2.xx.so 即可。
如果是因为 kernel 小版本号太高导致溢出,可以降低 kernel 版本号。
解决办法:kernel 版本号太高,glibc又不方便改动,有一个治标不治本的办法:恢复 kernel 的小版本号到旧版。
如何修改呢?
只需要将 linux 目录下Makefile文件的 小版本号 改掉重新编译即可,比如将 4.5.270 改为 4.5.255 即可:
因为小版本号一般不影响功能,所以修改了也没关系。当然这是治标不治本的办法。
正规的途径是在编译 glibc 的时候,参数中添加上 --enable-kernel=4.5.0
这样就不会运行到这段代码了。
