Hi Song,

Since RISC-V Linux v6.4, the commit 3335068f8721 ("riscv: Use
PUD/P4D/PGD pages for the linear mapping") changes the
phys_ram_base from the kernel_map.phys_addr to the start of DRAM.


Maybe we could be more explicit here, kernel_map.phys_addr actually points to the physical start of the kernel so maybe something like that:

"changes phys_ram_base from the physical start of the kernel to the actual start of the DRAM."

ok,


The Crash's VTOP() still uses phys_ram_base and kernel_map.virt_addr
to translate kernel virtual address, that made Crash boot failed with
Linux v6.4 and later version.

Let Linux export kernel_map.va_kernel_pa_offset in v6.5 and Crash can
use "va_kernel_pa_offset" to translate the kernel virtual address in
VTOP() correctly.

You can check/test the Linux changes from this link:
https://github.com/sugarfillet/linux/commits/6.5-rc3-crash

And I'll send the Linux changes to riscv/for-next If you're ok with this patch.

Would you mind giving me the instructions on how to reproduce the issue please? So that I can add that to our internal CI and avoid this type of breakage in the future.

You can reproduce this issue via :

1. compile the Linux v6.4 or later version with Kdump support
2. generate the vmcore file via sysrq-trigger
3. start the Crash (crash-utility/crash:master) with namelist(vmlinux) and vmcore with optional "-d" option

Crash would boot failed with some incorrect infos (like: empty cpu_*_mask,utsname ) and some error like: `crash: read error: kernel virtual address: ffffffff80ecb498 type: "linux_banner"`

Thanks,

Alex
