Subject: [PATCH] add additional symbols to /sys/kernel/vmcoreinfo data for ppc(64)
Date: Thu, 9 Oct 2008 11:20:27 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081009151408.GA25268@hmsendeavour.rdu.redhat.com> (raw)
Hey-
The makdumpdile dump filtering program, in some modes of operation needs
the node_data and/or contig_page_data symbols to function properly. These
symbols are missing from the powerpc kernel. This patch adds those symbols in
properly. Tested successfully by myself and the reporter.
Regards
Neil
