Subject: [PATCH v5 3/6] crash: add phdr for possible CPUs in elfcorehdr
Date: Mon, 21 Nov 2022 04:55:05 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221120232508.327554-4-sourabhjain@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221120232508.327554-1-sourabhjain@linux.ibm.com>
On architectures like PowerPC the crash notes are available for all
possible CPUs. So let's populate the elfcorehdr for all possible
CPUs having crash notes to avoid updating elfcorehdr during in-kernel
crash update on CPU hotplug events.
The similar technique was used in kexec-tool for kexec_load case.
