I tried this one out on linux-x86-tip tree on the mm2 branch
This one already had your patch:
x86, mm: Let "memmap=" take more entries one time
and I additionally added:
x86 e820: Check for exactmap appearance when parsing first memmap option
and the one you posted one mail earlier:
x86 e820: Introduce memmap=resetusablemap for kdump usage
I just re-posted your 2 patches also adding some kernel-parameter
documention, subject:
[PATCH 0/2] Only parse exactmap once, introduce memmap=resetusablemap
I adjusted kexec tools to identify the kernel version from the kernel
it loads.
I posted these patches separately, subject (google should find it
pretty soon):
[PATCH 0/3] Make use of new memmap= kernel parameter syntax
for those who are interested in these to:
- make use of comma separated memmap= option
Let "memmap=" take more entries one time
- Do not pass unusable (ACPI or whatever reserved mem) via memmap=x#y
- Do use memmap=resetusablemap instead of memmap=exactmap
in case the kernel to load is of version 3.9 or newer.
Otherwise there is no change.
Unfortunately I cannot see a proper way to backport this.
The only way may be to:
- In the backported kernel inverse the condition to prefer resetusablemap
over exactmap
- In kexec pass both to older kernels: memmap=exactmap memmap=resetusablemap
and all the ACPI reservation memmap= params
I tried this on a somewhat quicker booting machine with quite some more
memmap= params passed by kexec. I reset the machine hard when it started
kdump:
Copying data : [ 20 %]
as I expect that if it comes that far, things work. In both cases the
kernel was dumped:
