## Filter config file
##
## Description:
## Configuration file to specify filter commands to filter out desired
## kernel data from vmcore. It supports erasing of symbol data and
## it's members of any data type. In case of filtering of data pointed by
## void * pointer, user needs to provide size to filter out.
##
## Please refer to manpage makedumpfile.conf(5) for more details.
##
##
## - Module section
## =========================================================
## Syntax:
## [ModuleName]
##
## Define the module section where the symbols specified in subsequent erase
## commands belong to. The section name is a kernel module name (including
## vmlinux). The unnamed section defaults to [vmlinux] section.
##
## NOTE: There should not be any whitespaces before or after the ModuleName.
##
## e.g.
## [vmlinux] # Symbols in erase command belongs to main kernel (vmlinux)
## erase modules
## erase cred_jar.name
## erase cred_jar.name size 10
## erase cred_jar.array
## erase vmlist.addr nullify
##
## [z90crypt] # Symbols in erase command belongs to kernel module z90crypt
## erase ap_device_list
##
## # erase entire CPRBX structure
## erase static_cprbx
##
##
## - To erase kernel data referred through a kernel Symbol
## =========================================================
## Syntax:
## erase <Symbol>[.member[...]] [size <SizeValue>[K|M]]
## erase <Symbol>[.member[...]] [size <SizeSymbol>]
## erase <Symbol>[.member[...]] [nullify]]
##
## where
## <Symbol>
## A variable name from the kernel or module, which is part of
## global symbols '/proc/kallsyms'.
## <SizeValue>
## Integer value that specifies size of data to be erased. The
## suffixes 'K' and 'M' can be used to specify kilobytes and
## megabytes respectively where, K means 1024 bytes and M means
## 1024 ^ 2 = 1048576 bytes.
## <SizeSymbol>
## A simple axpression of the form <Symbol>[.member[...]] that
## denotes a symbol which contains a positive integer value as a
## size of the data in bytes to be erased.
##
## Filter out the specified size of the data referred by symbol/member.
## If size option is not provided then the size of <Symbol> will be calculated
## according to it's data type. For 'char *' data type, string length will be
## determined with an upper limit of 1024.
##
## If specified <Symbol> is of type 'void *', then user needs to provide
## either 'size' or 'nullify' option. Otherwise erase command will not have
## any effect.
##
## The option 'nullify' will work only if filter symbol/member is a pointer and
## is used to set NULL value to the pointer type symbol/member.
##
## NOTE: Please note that by nullifying pointer values will affect the
## debug ability of created DUMPFILE. Use 'nullify' option only when size of
## data to be filter out is not known e.g. data pointed by 'void *'.
##
## e.g.
## [vmlinux]
## erase modules
## erase cred_jar.name
## erase cred_jar.name size 10
## erase cred_jar.array
## erase vmlist.addr nullify
##
##
## - To filter kernel data referred through Array/list_head Symbol
## =================================================================
## Syntax:
## for <id> in { <ArrayVar> |
## <StructVar> via <NextMember> |
## <ListHeadVar> within <StructName>:<ListHeadMember> }
## erase <id>[.MemberExpression] [size <SizeExpression>|nullify]
## [erase <id> ...]
## [...]
## endfor
##
## where
## <id>
## Arbitrary name used to temporarily point to elements of the
## list. Referred as iteration variable.
## <ArrayVar>
## A simple expression in the form of <Symbol>[.member[...]] that
## results into an array variable.
## <StructVar>
## A simple expression in the form of <Symbol>[.member[...]] that
## results into a variable that points to a structure.
## <NextMember>
## Member within <StructVar> that points to an object of same
## type that of <StructVar>.
## <ListHeadVar>
## A simple expression in the form of <Symbol>[.member[...]] that
## results into a variable of type struct list_head.
## <StructName>
## Name of the structure type that can be traversed using
## HEAD variable <ListHeadVar> and contains a member named
## <ListHeadMember>.
## <ListHeadMember>
## Name of a member in <StructName>, of type struct list_head.
## <MemberExpression>
## A simple expression in the form of [.member[...]] to specify a
## member or component of a member in <ArrayVar>, <StructVar> or
## <StructName>.
## <SizeExpression>
## One of the following:
## - An integer value.
## - <Symbol>[.member[...]]
## - <id>[.MemberExpresion]
##
## The <ArrayVar>, <StructVar> and <ListHeadVar> is also referred as LIST
## entry
##
## Filter out the specified size of the data accessible through LIST entries.
## e.g.
## [vmlinux]
## # Traversing <ListHeadVar>
## for m in modules.next within module:list
## erase m.holders_dir.name
## endfor
## # Traversing <ArrayVar>
## for lc in lowcore_ptr
## erase lc
## endfor
## # Traversing link-list
## for cj in cred_jar via slabp_cache
## erase cj.name
## endfor
## [z90crypt]
## for ap_dev in ap_device_list.next within ap_device:list
## erase ap_dev.reply.message size ap_dev.reply.length
## endfor
