Subject: Fix OOPS in crash_kernel_shrink
Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2010 15:21:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87iq7n8toc.wl%vmayatsk@redhat.com> (raw)
Two "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size" OOPSes kernel. Also
content of this file is invalid after first shrink to zero: it shows 1
instead of 0.
This patch fixes it.
