I have plan to put kdump_disable_iosapic into purgatory code. However it is a relatively light function. For the ioc_iova_disable code, I need HP people to verify it is safe to remove the code on HP platform with IOMMU. > > +} > > + > > +static inline Elf64_Word > > +*append_elf_note(Elf64_Word *buf, char *name, unsigned type, void *data, > > + size_t data_len) > > +{ > > All this ELF stuff looks like something that could be split into > a separate patch. > > > + ia64_dump_cpu_regs(dst); > > + cfm = dst[43]; > > + sol = (cfm >> 7) & 0x7f; > > + sof = cfm & 0x7f; > > + dst[46] = (unsigned long)ia64_rse_skip_regs((unsigned long *)dst[46], > > + sof - sol); > > + > > + buf = (u64 *) per_cpu_ptr(crash_notes, cpu); > > Funny indentation above (spaces rather than tab, I guess). > > > -static unsigned long mem_limit = ~0UL, max_addr = ~0UL; > > +static unsigned long mem_limit = ~0UL, max_addr = ~0UL, min_addr = 0UL; > > > > #define efi_call_virt(f, args...)
