Now that kexec_walk_memblock() can do the crash-kernel placement itself architectures that don't support kdump via kexe_file_load() need to explicitly forbid it. We don't support this on arm64 until the kernel can add the elfcorehdr and usable-memory-range fields to the DT. Without these the crash-kernel overwrites the previous kernel's memory during startup. Add a check to refuse crash image loading. Reviewed-by: Bhupesh Sharma <bhsharma@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morse <james.morse@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
