I created the patchset for your comments and some corrections. The patchset is for linux-2.6.23-rc4-mm1. [1/3] Cleanup the coding style according to Andrew's comments: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2007-August/000522.html - vmcoreinfo_append_str() should have suitable __attribute__s so that the compiler can check its use. - vmcoreinfo_max_size should have size_t. - Use get_seconds() instead of xtime.tv_sec. - Use init_uts_ns.name.release instead of UTS_RELEASE. [2/3] Add nodemask_t's size and NR_FREE_PAGES's value to vmcoreinfo_data. The dump filetering command 'makedumpfile'(v1.1.6 or before) had assumed the above values, and it was not good from the reliability viewpoint. So makedumpfile v1.2.0 came to need these values and I created the patch to let the kernel output them. makedumpfile site: https://sourceforge.net/projects/makedumpfile/ [3/3] Use the existing ia64_tpa() instead of asm code.
