we should be able to get all of physical memory that the running kernel can access from the kdump kernel already, without needing to special case PAE. Do you have a case in which thats not working? If so, please provide me a reproducer. Ping Chris? Neil, Oops. I never looked back at this one, sorry. I'll have to try again; it certainly may have just been user error. I'll be away for a week, though, so I won't get back to it until the second week in October, though. Thanks for the reminder. Chris Lalancette well, let me know when you finish retesting. chris, any update on this? Its been sitting for some time. Sorry Neil. I just tried this again, and I couldn't get it to fail; it seems that the kdump script is choosing the correct kernel for all of the cases I can come up with. I'll close this as NOTABUG. Thanks for being patient. Chris Lalancette |
