[RESEND][PATCH v2 2/2] powerpc/fadump: parse fadump reserve memory size based on memory range

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

 



Currently, memory for fadump can be specified with fadump_reserve_mem=size,
where only a fixed size can be specified. Add the below syntax as well, to
support conditional reservation based on system memory size:

	fadump_reserve_mem=<range1>:<size1>[,<range2>:<size2>,...]

This syntax helps using the same commandline parameter for different system
memory sizes.
