Subject: [RFC/PATCH 9/17][Kdump] Kconfig for kdump
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2005 18:57:03 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1112016423.4001.80.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1 bytes --]
[-- Attachment #2: crashdump-x86-kconfig.patch --]
[-- Type: text/x-patch, Size: 975 bytes --]
o config option CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP
o Made it dependent on HIGHMEM. This is required as capture kernel treats the
previous kernel's memory as high memmory and stitches a PTE for accessing
it.
