Hi Coiby, can you share the kdump.conf file and how did you trigger the initqueue failure? Previously QE configured kdump to dump to another partition and wiped the partition before the dump start so kdump will fail to setup the partition. How did you created the dump failure?

The iniqueque failure happened without doing anything. I changed failture_action to dump_to_rootfs because I knew your patch and wanted to know if kdump works for ARM in this situcation.
