kexec Cannot Locate hole of 0x1000 bytes...

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

 



Hello
I am trying to use kexec on an armv5 board to load a crash kernel.
Loading a non crash kernel works ok.

bootargs for uboot are
console=ttySAC0,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootwait init=/linuxrc
panic=2 mac=00:12:E5:04:81:93 crashkernel=60M@32M

kexec version is 2.0.16

kexec -p -t zImage /mnt/zImage-ramdisk  --append="console=ttySAC0,115200 root=
/dev/mmcblk0p2 initrd rw rootwait init=/linuxrc panic=2
mac=00:12:E5:04:81:93 crashkernel=60M@32M"

kexec documentation says that crashkernel for arm processors isn't
required but when I tried to run kexec without this parameter it said
it could not load it.

I have played around with this code intensively trying to get it to
work but alas it isn't
Here is the output:

# kexec -d -p -t zImage /mnt/zImage-ramdisk  --append="console=ttySAC0,115200 ro
ot=/dev/mmcblk0p2 initrd rw rootwait init=/linuxrc panic=2
mac=00:12:E5:04:81:93"

I have also tried with --mem-min and --mem-max arguements as well

I tried messing around with the kexec to get the holes to align
properly and this is the output
