[PATCH 2/2] x86, e820 disable ACPI Memory Hotplug if memory mapping is specified by user

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

 



kdump uses memmap=exactmap and mem=X values to configure the memory
mapping for the kdump kernel.  If memory is hotadded during the boot of
the kdump kernel it is possible that the page tables for the new memory
cause the kdump kernel to run out of memory.

Since the user has specified a specific mapping ACPI Memory Hotplug should be
disabled in this case.
