Subject: [PATCH 06/11] of: reserved_mem: save /memreserve/ entries into reserved_mem array
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 14:58:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260429065831.1510858-7-chenwandun@lixiang.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260429065831.1510858-1-chenwandun@lixiang.com>

Save /memreserve/ entries from the FDT header into the reserved_mem
array so they can be consumed as vmcore filtering metadata by kdump.

/memreserve/ regions hold firmware or bootloader state that is not
useful for kernel crash analysis, so saved /memreserve/ entries
default to no_dump=true and are tagged with name="memreserve" so
consumers can distinguish them from /reserved-memory/ child nodes.

Some DTBs declare the same or overlapping range in both
/memreserve/ and a /reserved-memory/ child. Commit b41328187629
("of: fdt: Scan /memreserve/ last") describes one such case on
Khadas Vim3 where the range is in /memreserve/ and also in a
/reserved-memory/ child carrying no-map. The /reserved-memory/
node's attributes (no-map, reusable, linux,no-dump) are the
explicit declaration and must win over the firmware default,
fdt_reserved_mem_save_memreserve() therefore inherits no_dump from
the overlapping /reserved-memory/ entry rather than silently
applying no_dump=true.
