Subject: Save PG_compound or PG_head value in VMCOREINFO
Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2012 15:13:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3774326.lMtTTFYZT3@azariah.suse.cz> (raw)
To allow filtering of huge pages, makedumpfile must be able to identify
them in the dump. This can be done by checking for the appropriate
page flag, so communicate its value to makedumpfile through the VMCOREINFO
interface.
