[PATCH] kexec-tools: powerpc: dt_reserve doesn't allocate enough memory for large properties

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On a large ppc64 box I got the following error from kexec -l: 

unrecoverable error: could not read "/proc/device-tree/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory/ibm,dynamic-memory": Bad address

dt_reserve was assuming a property was never larger than
INIT_TREE_WORDS (65536), but on this box ibm,dynamic-memory is
119995 words.

Allocate INIT_TREE_WORDS or the number of words requested, whatever
is larger.
