Subject: why does CONFIG_NONSTATIC_KERNEL affect the boot kernel?
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2013 17:33:40 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5179BD54.2000409@genband.com> (raw)
Hi,
Looking at the kdump code for powerpc, I see that if
CONFIG_NONSTATIC_KERNEL is not set then the load address for the capture
kernel is fixed at 32MB.
Why is this?
When using a separate capture kernel I don't see why that should
restrict where I allocate space in the boot kernel.
Chris
