X-Git-Tag: v2.6.28-rc1~128 X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=acd99dbf54020f5c80b9aa2f2ea86f43cb285b02;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git kdump: add vmlist.addr to vmcoreinfo for x86 vmalloc translation. Add the symbols 'vmlist' and offset 'vm_struct.addr' to the vmcoreinfo[1] data for i386 vmalloc translation. makedumpfile[2] needs VMALLOC_START value for distinguishing a vmalloc address or not, because it should choose suitable translation method. If applying this patch, makedumpfile will be able to take VMALLOC_START value from 'vmlist.addr'. vmcoreinfo[1]: The vmcoreinfo data has the minimum debugging information only for dump filtering. makedumpfile[2] uses it to distinguish unnecessary pages and creates a small dumpfile. makedumpfile[2]: dump filtering command https://sourceforge.net/projects/makedumpfile/ Signed-off-by: Ken'ichi Ohmichi Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- diff --git a/kernel/kexec.c b/kernel/kexec.c index aef265325cd..777ac458ac9 100644 --- a/kernel/kexec.c +++ b/kernel/kexec.c @@ -1371,6 +1371,7 @@ static int __init crash_save_vmcoreinfo_init(void) VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(node_online_map); VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(swapper_pg_dir); VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(_stext); + VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(vmlist); #ifndef CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(mem_map); @@ -1406,6 +1407,7 @@ static int __init crash_save_vmcoreinfo_init(void) VMCOREINFO_OFFSET(free_area, free_list); VMCOREINFO_OFFSET(list_head, next); VMCOREINFO_OFFSET(list_head, prev); + VMCOREINFO_OFFSET(vm_struct, addr); VMCOREINFO_LENGTH(zone.free_area, MAX_ORDER); VMCOREINFO_LENGTH(free_area.free_list, MIGRATE_TYPES); VMCOREINFO_NUMBER(NR_FREE_PAGES);
