kexec failures on ipq4019

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

 



Hi,

  I'm trying to get kexec to work consistently for ipq4019.  I load
the crash kernel like this:

kexec --type zImage -p zImage-initramfs
--dtb=image-qcom-ipq4019-eap1300.dtb --append="maxcpus=1
reset_devices" --image-size=34419456

  I have reserved 64MB of memory for the crash kernel with parameter:
crashkernel=64M

  This seems to work ~70% of the time. When it doesn't work, I see the
"bye!" message followed by a 5-10 second hang without output.  Then
the machine resets.

  I've been testing with:
echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger

  Does anyone have an idea of what may be causing the failures or how
to troubleshoot this?

  I'm using OpenWRT with kernel 4.14.37.   I added the following patch
in order to load the crash kernel:
