[RFC v2 15/43] PKRAM: provide a way to ban pages from use by PKRAM

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

 



Not all memory ranges can be used for saving preserved over-kexec data.
For example, a kexec kernel may be loaded before pages are preserved.
The memory regions where the kexec segments will be copied to on kexec
must not contain preserved pages or else they will be clobbered.
