It includes changes in 3 source code as below: I think the reason this patchkit is difficult to follow is that it spends a lot of time describing a chosen solution, but not enough time describing the problem and the tradeoffs. For example why is updating /proc/vmcore with pmem metadata the chosen solution? Why not leave the kernel out of it and have makedumpfile tooling aware of how to parse persistent memory namespace info-blocks and retrieve that dump itself? This is what I proposed here: http://lore.kernel.org/r/641484f7ef780_a52e2940@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.notmuch ...but never got an answer, or I missed the answer. _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
