[PATCH 4/4] x86/platform/UV: Fix kernel panic running RHEL kdump kernel on UV

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

 



The latest UV kernel support panics when RHEL7 kexec's the kdump kernel
to make a dumpfile.  This patch fixes the problem by turning off all UV
support if NUMA is off.
