We can add it later if needed, once the core changes are in. Thinking about this, if one requires a crashkernel reservation that allocates all of the ZONE_DMA, it would probably be noticed and explicit ,high/,low options can be used. Note that we are also trying to make ZONE_DMA full 32-bit on non-RPi4 hardware. -- Catalin _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
