This just gives examples of basic configation for each ARCH. The detailed configuration of all crashkernel setting can be found in "crashkernel syntax" section, I don't think arm64 is so special to need a specific one. > > Load the Dump-capture Kernel > ============================ > diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt b/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt > index f5a27f067db9ed9..65780c2ca830be0 100644 > --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt > +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt > @@ -792,6 +792,9 @@ > [KNL, X86-64] Select a region under 4G first, and > fall back to reserve region above 4G when '@offset' > hasn't been specified. > + [KNL, ARM64] Try low allocation in DMA zone and fall back > + to high allocation if it fails when '@offset' hasn't been > + specified. > See Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/kdump.rst for further details.
