This is a good catch. Guess it's observed from code exploring. The runtime effects is that crashkernel high memory is successfully reserved, whereas the crashkernel low memory is bypassed in this case, then kdump kernel bootup will fail because of no low memory under 4G. _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
