[PATCH 0/2] makedumpfile: Adapt code to get value of phys_base

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

 



This patchset is on top of Pratyush's patchset:
**x86_64: Fix page_offset for randomized base enabled**

Because exporting virtual address of phys_base is really helpless for Crash
and Makedumpfile, so has posted a kernel patch to export value of phys_base
instead. Patch 2/1 is used to adapt code for that.

Patch 2/2 is a clean up patch, it's based on Pratyush's patchset. MODULES_VADDR
is used to judge if a virtual address in inside kernel text region or direct
mapping region. And MODULES_VADDR is decided by KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE. With Pratyush's
above patchset, KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE is not needed. Remove it here. But Crash needs
it to check if kaslr is enabled. It still need be exported.
