[PATCH v3 0/2] x86/mm/sme: fix the kdump kernel breakage on SME system when CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC=y

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, distros like Fedora/RHEL have enabled CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC by
default. This makes kexec/kdump kernel always fail to boot up on SME
platform because of a code bug. By debugging, the root cause is found
out and bug is fixed with this patchset.

Changelog:
v2->v3:
=======
- Add how the miscaculation is caused into patch 2 log according to
  Tom's suggestion.
- Add Tom's tag.

v1->v2:
=======
- Add patch 1 to clean up the confusing local varibale naming because
  people may mix up the local variable 'size' with the passed in parameter
  in function early_memremap_is_setup_data(). Suggested by Dave and Tom
  during v1 patch reviewing.

Baoquan He (2):
  x86/mm: rename the confusing local variable in
    early_memremap_is_setup_data()
  x86/mm/sme: fix the kdump kernel breakage on SME system when
    CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC=y
