Without the elfcorehdr/usable-memory-range arm64 needs to explicitly forbid kdump via kexec_file_load. (like powerpc does already). Without this kdump works, but the second kernel overwrites the first as those DT properties are missing. I'll post a patch momentarily, Thanks, James _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
