Hi, I am using linux-2.6.29-rt23 on freescale MPC8308 based board. It is a POWERPC 32 bit processor. Physical memory = 512MB of which 128MB at 32MB is reserved for cashkernel I have cross-compiled kexec-tools 2.0.10 for this board with --without-zlib and --without-xen options. I have 2 kernels: 1. production kernel with CONFIG_KEXEC, CONFIG_SYSFS, CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO, CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE enabled 2. capture kernel with CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP, CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE, CONFIG_SYSFS, CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO set. when I give : kexec -l vmlinux kexec -e this successfully loads the crash kernel however when using the kexec -p option and triggering a crashdump? does not load the same crashkernel. The output that comes on screen is just these 2 lines: SysRq : Trigger a crashdump Bye! I am unable to find out what may be the reason. Please help.
