In need of saving DMA zone memory while allocating a relatively large crash kernel region, allocating the reserved memory top down in high memory, without overlapping the DMA zone, is a mature solution. Hence this patchset introduces the parameter option crashkernel=X,[high,low]. One can reserve the crash kernel from high memory above DMA zone range by explicitly passing "crashkernel=X,high"; or reserve a memory range below 4G with "crashkernel=X,low". Besides, there are few rules need to take notice: 1. "crashkernel=X,[high,low]" will be ignored if "crashkernel=size" is specified. 2. "crashkernel=X,low" is valid only when "crashkernel=X,high" is passed and there is enough memory to be allocated under 4G. 3. When allocating crashkernel above 4G and no "crashkernel=X,low" is specified, a 128M low memory will be allocated automatically for swiotlb bounce buffer. See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt for more information. To verify loading the crashkernel, adapted kexec-tools is attached below: https://github.com/chenjh005/kexec-tools/tree/build-test-riscv-v2 Following test cases have been performed as expected: 1) crashkernel=256M //low=256M 2) crashkernel=1G //low=1G 3) crashkernel=4G //high=4G, low=128M(default) 4) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=256M,high //high=4G, low=128M(default), high is ignored 5) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=256M,low //high=4G, low=128M(default), low is ignored 6) crashkernel=4G,high //high=4G, low=128M(default) 7) crashkernel=256M,low //low=0M, invalid 8) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=256M,low //high=4G, low=256M 9) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=4G,low //high=0M, low=0M, invalid 10) crashkernel=512M@0xd0000000 //low=512M 11) crashkernel=1G@0xe0000000 //high=0M, low=0M, no enough low memory, failed Changes since [v3]: 1. Update to print warning and return explicitly on failure when crashkernel=size@offset is specified. Not changing the result in this case but making the logic more straightforward. 2. Some minor cleanup. Changes since [v2]: 1. Update the allocation logic to ensure the high crashkernel region is reserved strictly above dma32_phys_limit. 2. Clean up some minor format problems.
