Date: Wed, 25 Jan 2017 10:14:34 +0530 From: Pratyush Anand <panand@...hat.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: bhe@...hat.com, dyoung@...hat.com, anderson@...hat.com, kexec@...ts.infradead.org, Pratyush Anand <panand@...hat.com> Subject: [PATCH] /proc/kcore: Update physical address for kcore ram and text Currently all the p_paddr of PT_LOAD headers are assigned to 0, which is not true and could be misleading, since 0 is a valid physical address. User space tools like makedumpfile needs to know physical address for PT_LOAD segments of direct mapped regions. Therefore this patch updates paddr for such regions. It also sets an invalid paddr (-1) for other regions, so that user space tool can know whether a physical address provided in PT_LOAD is correct or not.
