Hi,
Following set of patches is an update to kdump on i386 and x86_64. Changes arises mainly due to review comments received during last posting of kdump for x86_64.
Vivek Goyal: - i386 save ss esp bug fix - dynamic per cpu allocation of memory for saving cpu registers - export per cpu crash notes pointer through sysfs - save registers early (inline functions)
Murali M: - x86_64 add memmmap command line option - x86_64 add elfcorehdr command line option - x86_64 kexec on panic - x86_64 save cpu registers upon crash
Rachita Kothiyal: - read previous kernel's memory - kexec increase max segment limit
This set of patches has been tested on i386 and em64t x86_64 machine. Crash dumps can be captured and opened using gdb and crash-4.0-2.12.
Corresponding kexec-tools patches are being posted in a separate set on fastboot mailing list.
