[PATCH v2 03/12] powerpc/kexec_file: add helper functions for getting memory ranges

Hari Bathini hbathini at linux.ibm.com
Thu Jul 2 15:54:46 EDT 2020


In kexec case, the kernel to be loaded uses the same memory layout as
the running kernel. So, passing on the DT of the running kernel would
be good enough.

But in case of kdump, different memory ranges are needed to manage
loading the kdump kernel, booting into it and exporting the elfcore
of the crashing kernel. The ranges are exlude memory ranges, usable
memory ranges, reserved memory ranges and crash memory ranges.

Exclude memory ranges specify the list of memory ranges to avoid while
loading kdump segments. Usable memory ranges list the memory ranges
that could be used for booting kdump kernel. Reserved memory ranges
list the memory regions for the loading kernel's reserve map. Crash
memory ranges list the memory ranges to be exported as the crashing
kernel's elfcore.

Add helper functions for setting up the above mentioned memory ranges.
This helpers facilitate in understanding the subsequent changes better
and make it easy to setup the different memory ranges listed above, as
and when appropriate.

Changes in v2:
* Added an option to merge ranges while sorting to minimize reallocations
  for memory ranges list.
* Dropped within_crashkernel option for add_opal_mem_range() &
  add_rtas_mem_range() as it is not really needed.
