Hello, I have for consideration a makedumpfile patch that can exclude the ZFS file data cache pages. This is similar in capability as the exclusion of the VFS page cache pages. My question to this list is how to proceed? Should I post a patch or should I first explain how the ZFS pages are being marked and see if others here can recommend a better approach? Long term, ZFS should participate in the VFS page cache. However, that is a significant change and won't be available in the foreseeable future. There is an immediate benefit from excluding ZFS file cache pages that will benefit crash dump users that use ZFS. Thanks in advance for your help! -Don -- DON BRADY Staff Engineer Delphix.com _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
