OPAL loads kernel & initrd at 512MB offset (256MB size), also exported as ibm,opal/dump/fw-load-area. So, if boot memory size of FADump is less than 768MB, kernel memory to be exported as '/proc/vmcore' would be overwritten by f/w while loading kernel & initrd. To avoid such a scenario, enforce a minimum boot memory size of 768MB on OPAL platform and skip using FADump if a newer F/W version loads kernel & initrd above 768MB. Also, irrespective of RMA size, set the minimum boot memory size expected on pseries platform at 320MB. This is to avoid inflating the minimum memory requirements on systems with 512M/1024M RMA size.

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.
