Then user need know the system information, e.g how much is the high
memory, low memory, if CONFIG_ZONE_DMA|DMA32 is enabled. And we need
describe these cases in document. Any corner case or exception need
be noted if we don't handle it in code.
Caring about this very much because we have CI with existed test cases
to run on the system, and QA will check these manually too. Support
engineer need detailed document if anything special but happened.
Anything unclear or uncovered will be reported as bug to our kernel dev.
Guess your company do the similar thing like this.
This crashkerne,high and crashkernel,low reservation is special if we
allow ,high, ,low existing in the same zone. Imagine on system with
CONFIG_ZONE_DMA|DMA32 disabled, people copy the crashkernel=512M,high
and crashkernel=128M,low from other system, and he could get
crash_res at [5G, 5G+512M], while crash_low_res at [6G, 6G+128M]. Guess
how they will judge us.
