The following interrelated definitions and ranges are needed by the kdump
crash tool, they are exported by "arch/riscv/kernel/crash_core.c":
     VA_BITS,
     PAGE_OFFSET,
     phys_ram_base,
     MODULES_VADDR ~ MODULES_END,
     VMALLOC_START ~ VMALLOC_END,
     VMEMMAP_START ~ VMEMMAP_END,
     KASAN_SHADOW_START ~ KASAN_SHADOW_END,
     KERNEL_LINK_ADDR ~ ADDRESS_SPACE_END

Document these RISCV64 exports above.

+RISCV64
+=======
+
+VA_BITS
+-------
+
+The maximum number of bits for virtual addresses. Used to compute the
+virtual memory ranges.
+
+PAGE_OFFSET
+-----------
+
+Indicates the virtual kernel start address of direct-mapped RAM region.
Apologies for not seeing this sooner, but should there not be a "the"
prior to "direct-mapped"?
will fix in v3

+
+phys_ram_base
+-------------
+
+Indicates the start physical RAM address.
+
+MODULES_VADDR|MODULES_END|VMALLOC_START|VMALLOC_END|VMEMMAP_START|VMEMMAP_END|KASAN_SHADOW_START|KASAN_SHADOW_END|KERNEL_LINK_ADDR|ADDRESS_SPACE_END
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Used to get the correct ranges:
+
+  * MODULES_VADDR ~ MODULES_END : Kernel module space.
+  * VMALLOC_START ~ VMALLOC_END : vmalloc() / ioremap() space.
+  * VMEMMAP_START ~ VMEMMAP_END : vmemmap region, used for struct page array.
Since I'm in pedant mode, it does look a little odd that you're using
region for vmemmap but space for the others but idc that much.

Sorry, I didn't get your point :(

it contains vmemmap area with reference wth arch/arm64/kernel/crash_core.c.


Thanks,
Conor.

+  * KASAN_SHADOW_START ~ KASAN_SHADOW_END : kasan shadow space.
+  * KERNEL_LINK_ADDR ~ ADDRESS_SPACE_END : Kernel link and BPF space.
