魔术键:Linux Magic System Request Key Hacks

当Linux 系统不能正常响应用户请求时, 可以使用SysRq小工具控制Linux.

一 SysRq的启用与关闭

要想启用SysRq, 需要在配置内核时设置Magic SysRq key (CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ)为Y. 对于支持SysRq的内核, /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq控制SysRq的启用与否. 如果/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq内容为0, 则SysRq被禁用; 如果/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq内容为1, 则SysRq被启用. 关于/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq的更多描述, 请参考<Kernel Source>/Documentation/sysrq.txt

可通过运行命令echo "0" >/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq和echo "1" >/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq暂时启用或禁用SysRq. 如果需要永久启用或者禁用SysRqs, 则可在/etc/sysctl.conf中设置kernel.sysrq = 1 (启用SsyRq)或kernel.sysrq = 0 (禁用SysRq)

二 SysRq的使用

SysRq的命令键有

'r'     - Turns off keyboard raw mode and sets it to XLATE.

'k'     - Secure Access Key (SAK) Kills all programs on the current virtual 
          console. NOTE: See important comments below in SAK section.

'b'     - Will immediately reboot the system without syncing or unmounting 
          your disks.

'o'     - Will shut your system off (if configured and supported).

's'     - Will attempt to sync all mounted filesystems.

'u'     - Will attempt to remount all mounted filesystems read-only.

'p'     - Will dump the current registers and flags to your console.

't'     - Will dump a list of current tasks and their information to your 
          console.

'm'     - Will dump current memory info to your console.

'0'-'9' - Sets the console log level, controlling which kernel messages 
          will be printed to your console. ('0', for example would make 
          it so that only emergency messages like PANICs or OOPSes would 
          make it to your console.)

'e'     - Send a SIGTERM to all processes, except for init.

'i'     - Send a SIGKILL to all processes, except for init.

'l'     - Send a SIGKILL to all processes, INCLUDING init. (Your system 
          will be non-functional after this.)

'h'     - Will display help ( actually any other key than those listed 
          above will display help. but 'h' is easy to remember :-)

在终端上同时按Alt, SysRq和命令键则会执行SysRq命令, SysRq键就是"Prent Screen"健. 比如Alt+SysRq+b则重启机器.

如果使用telnet 或ssh连接到服务器则可以使用echo '<SysRq命令键>' > /proc/sysrq-trigger的方式执行SysRq命令, 比如echo 'b' > /proc/sysrq-trigger重启系统.

三 常用的SysRq命令(序列)

3.1 重启机器的SysRq命令序列是 k(SAK) s(sync) u(umount) b(reboot)

3.2 显示内存信息的SysRq命令是m(memory)

3.3 显示当前任务信息的SysRq命令是t(task)

Linux Magic System Request Key Hacks

Documentation for sysrq.c

*  What is the magic SysRq key?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is a 'magical' key combo you can hit which the kernel will respond to

regardless of whatever else it is doing, unless it is completely locked up.

*  How do I enable the magic SysRq key?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You need to say "yes" to 'Magic SysRq key (CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ)' when

configuring the kernel. When running a kernel with SysRq compiled in,

/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq controls the functions allowed to be invoked via

the SysRq key. By default the file contains 1 which means that every

possible SysRq request is allowed (in older versions SysRq was disabled

by default, and you were required to specifically enable it at run-time

but this is not the case any more). Here is the list of possible values

in /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq:

0 - disable sysrq completely

1 - enable all functions of sysrq

>1 - bitmask of allowed sysrq functions (see below for detailed function

description):

2 - enable control of console logging level

4 - enable control of keyboard (SAK, unraw)

8 - enable debugging dumps of processes etc.

16 - enable sync command

32 - enable remount read-only

64 - enable signalling of processes (term, kill, oom-kill)

128 - allow reboot/poweroff

256 - allow nicing of all RT tasks

You can set the value in the file by the following command:

echo "number" >/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq

Note that the value of /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq influences only the invocation

via a keyboard. Invocation of any operation via /proc/sysrq-trigger is always

allowed (by a user with admin privileges).

*  How do I use the magic SysRq key?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On x86   - You press the key combo 'ALT-SysRq-<command key>'. Note - Some

keyboards may not have a key labeled 'SysRq'. The 'SysRq' key is

also known as the 'Print Screen' key. Also some keyboards cannot

handle so many keys being pressed at the same time, so you might

have better luck with "press Alt", "press SysRq", "release SysRq",

"press <command key>", release everything.

On SPARC - You press 'ALT-STOP-<command key>', I believe.

On the serial console (PC style standard serial ports only) -

You send a BREAK, then within 5 seconds a command key. Sending

BREAK twice is interpreted as a normal BREAK.

On PowerPC - Press 'ALT - Print Screen (or F13) - <command key>,

Print Screen (or F13) - <command key> may suffice.

On other - If you know of the key combos for other architectures, please

let me know so I can add them to this section.

On all -  write a character to /proc/sysrq-trigger.  e.g.:

echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger

*  What are the 'command' keys?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'b'     - Will immediately reboot the system without syncing or unmounting

your disks.

'c' - Will perform a system crash by a NULL pointer dereference.

A crashdump will be taken if configured.

'd' - Shows all locks that are held.

'e'     - Send a SIGTERM to all processes, except for init.

'f' - Will call oom_kill to kill a memory hog process.

'g' - Used by kgdb (kernel debugger)

'h'     - Will display help (actually any other key than those listed

here will display help. but 'h' is easy to remember :-)

'i'     - Send a SIGKILL to all processes, except for init.

'j'     - Forcibly "Just thaw it" - filesystems frozen by the FIFREEZE ioctl.

'k'     - Secure Access Key (SAK) Kills all programs on the current virtual

console. NOTE: See important comments below in SAK section.

'l'     - Shows a stack backtrace for all active CPUs.

'm'     - Will dump current memory info to your console.

'n' - Used to make RT tasks nice-able

'o'     - Will shut your system off (if configured and supported).

'p'     - Will dump the current registers and flags to your console.

'q'     - Will dump per CPU lists of all armed hrtimers (but NOT regular

timer_list timers) and detailed information about all

clockevent devices.

'r'     - Turns off keyboard raw mode and sets it to XLATE.

's'     - Will attempt to sync all mounted filesystems.

't'     - Will dump a list of current tasks and their information to your

console.

'u'     - Will attempt to remount all mounted filesystems read-only.

'v' - Forcefully restores framebuffer console

'v' - Causes ETM buffer dump [ARM-specific]

'w' - Dumps tasks that are in uninterruptable (blocked) state.

'x' - Used by xmon interface on ppc/powerpc platforms.

'y' - Show global CPU Registers [SPARC-64 specific]

'z' - Dump the ftrace buffer

'0'-'9' - Sets the console log level, controlling which kernel messages

will be printed to your console. ('0', for example would make

it so that only emergency messages like PANICs or OOPSes would

make it to your console.)

*  Okay, so what can I use them for?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, un'R'aw is very handy when your X server or a svgalib program crashes.

sa'K' (Secure Access Key) is useful when you want to be sure there is no

* program running at console which could grab your password

when you would try to login. It will kill all programs on given console,

thus letting you make sure that the login prompt you see is actually

the one from init, not some * program.

IMPORTANT: In its true form it is not a true SAK like the one in a :IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT: c2 compliant system, and it should not be mistaken as   :IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT: such.                                                   :IMPORTANT

It seems others find it useful as (System Attention Key) which is

useful when you want to exit a program that will not let you switch consoles.

(For example, X or a svgalib program.)

re'B'oot is good when you're unable to shut down. But you should also 'S'ync

and 'U'mount first.

'C'rash can be used to manually trigger a crashdump when the system is hung.

Note that this just triggers a crash if there is no dump mechanism available.

'S'ync is great when your system is locked up, it allows you to sync your

disks and will certainly lessen the chance of data loss and fscking. Note

that the sync hasn't taken place until you see the "OK" and "Done" appear

on the screen. (If the kernel is really in strife, you may not ever get the

OK or Done message...)

'U'mount is basically useful in the same ways as 'S'ync. I generally 'S'ync,

'U'mount, then re'B'oot when my system locks. It's saved me many a fsck.

Again, the unmount (remount read-only) hasn't taken place until you see the

"OK" and "Done" message appear on the screen.

The loglevels '0'-'9' are useful when your console is being flooded with

kernel messages you do not want to see. Selecting '0' will prevent all but

the most urgent kernel messages from reaching your console. (They will

still be logged if syslogd/klogd are alive, though.)

t'E'rm and k'I'll are useful if you have some sort of runaway process you

are unable to kill any other way, especially if it's spawning other

processes.

"'J'ust thaw it" is useful if your system becomes unresponsive due to a frozen

(probably root) filesystem via the FIFREEZE ioctl.

*  Sometimes SysRq seems to get 'stuck' after using it, what can I do?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That happens to me, also. I've found that tapping shift, alt, and control

on both sides of the keyboard, and hitting an invalid sysrq sequence again

will fix the problem. (i.e., something like alt-sysrq-z). Switching to another

virtual console (ALT+Fn) and then back again should also help.

*  I hit SysRq, but nothing seems to happen, what's wrong?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are some keyboards that produce a different keycode for SysRq than the

pre-defined value of 99 (see KEY_SYSRQ in include/linux/input.h), or which

don't have a SysRq key at all. In these cases, run 'showkey -s' to find an

appropriate scancode sequence, and use 'setkeycodes <sequence> 99' to map

this sequence to the usual SysRq code (e.g., 'setkeycodes e05b 99'). It's

probably best to put this command in a boot script. Oh, and by the way, you

exit 'showkey' by not typing anything for ten seconds.

*  I want to add SysRQ key events to a module, how does it work?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In order to register a basic function with the table, you must first include

the header 'include/linux/sysrq.h', this will define everything else you need.

Next, you must create a sysrq_key_op struct, and populate it with A) the key

handler function you will use, B) a help_msg string, that will print when SysRQ

prints help, and C) an action_msg string, that will print right before your

handler is called. Your handler must conform to the prototype in 'sysrq.h'.

After the sysrq_key_op is created, you can call the kernel function

register_sysrq_key(int key, struct sysrq_key_op *op_p); this will

register the operation pointed to by 'op_p' at table key 'key',

if that slot in the table is blank. At module unload time, you must call

the function unregister_sysrq_key(int key, struct sysrq_key_op *op_p), which

will remove the key op pointed to by 'op_p' from the key 'key', if and only if

it is currently registered in that slot. This is in case the slot has been

overwritten since you registered it.

The Magic SysRQ system works by registering key operations against a key op

lookup table, which is defined in 'drivers/char/sysrq.c'. This key table has

a number of operations registered into it at compile time, but is mutable,

and 2 functions are exported for interface to it:

register_sysrq_key and unregister_sysrq_key.

Of course, never ever leave an invalid pointer in the table. I.e., when

your module that called register_sysrq_key() exits, it must call

unregister_sysrq_key() to clean up the sysrq key table entry that it used.

Null pointers in the table are always safe. :)

If for some reason you feel the need to call the handle_sysrq function from

within a function called by handle_sysrq, you must be aware that you are in

a lock (you are also in an interrupt handler, which means don't sleep!), so

you must call __handle_sysrq_nolock instead.

*  When I hit a SysRq key combination only the header appears on the console?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sysrq output is subject to the same console loglevel control as all

other console output.  This means that if the kernel was booted 'quiet'

as is common on distro kernels the output may not appear on the actual

console, even though it will appear in the dmesg buffer, and be accessible

via the dmesg command and to the consumers of /proc/kmsg.  As a specific

exception the header line from the sysrq command is passed to all console

consumers as if the current loglevel was maximum.  If only the header

is emitted it is almost certain that the kernel loglevel is too low.

Should you require the output on the console channel then you will need

to temporarily up the console loglevel using alt-sysrq-8 or:

echo 8 > /proc/sysrq-trigger

Remember to return the loglevel to normal after triggering the sysrq

command you are interested in.

*  I have more questions, who can I ask?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And I'll answer any questions about the registration system you got, also

responding as soon as possible.
