Description of Problem: This is a REGRESSION issue. At fedora makedumpfile has been updated toward v1.5.4. Unfortunately, this version fails calculating phys_base on sadump format and then fails converting vmcore. x86_64 kernel is relocatable kernel and there can be a gap between the physical address statically assigned to kernel data and texts and the address that is really assigned to each object corresponding to the kernel symbols. The gap is phys_base. makedump calculates the phys_base in an ad-hoc way that comparing the addresses of some of occurrences of "Linux kernel" strings in certain range of vmcore. Resolution: Fix patch has already been posted in upstream. so just back port. The commit ID are: commit e23dc0a1aa5fa7a4429f72ff1c2fe87a87291065 commit 92563d7a7a5175ef78c4a94ee269b1b455331b4c Signed-off-by: arthur <zzou@redhat.com> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com>

Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH 1/2] cache: Allocate buffers at initialization to
|
|
detect malloc() failure.
|
|
|
|
malloc() is used in cache_alloc() but there's no check for it. If I
|
|
added check in cache_alloc() directly, cache_alloc() needs to return
|
|
one more error status and code gets somewhat complicated. Instead, I
|
|
move malloc() in initial() to detect allocation failure at
|
|
initialization. By this change, 8 buffers are allocated at the same
|
|
time, no longer incrementally. However, 8 buffers are almost always
|
|
used throughout execution. There's essential differnece from the
|
|
incremental one.
