Subject: [PATCH 07/11] of: reserved_mem: add no-dump crash_mem exclusion helpers
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 14:58:27 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260429065831.1510858-8-chenwandun@lixiang.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260429065831.1510858-1-chenwandun@lixiang.com>
Provide two kdump-oriented helpers so that arch kexec_file code does
not have to open-code the no-dump filtering loop:
- of_reserved_mem_no_dump_nr_ranges() returns the number of reserved
regions flagged with linux,no-dump. Each exclusion may split one
existing crash_mem range into two, so callers use this count to
pre-size their crash_mem allocation.
- of_reserved_mem_exclude_no_dump() walks the reserved_mem[] array
and calls crash_exclude_mem_range() for each no-dump region.
Both helpers are guarded by CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE; empty inline stubs are
provided for the !KEXEC_FILE case so architecture code can call them
unconditionally.
The consumers are added in the following arm64, riscv and loongarch
patches in this series.
