Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] crash: Exclude crash kernel memory in crash core
Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2026 17:37:26 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260204093728.1447527-2-ruanjinjie@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260204093728.1447527-1-ruanjinjie@huawei.com>
The exclude of crashk_res, crashk_low_res and crashk_cma memory
are almost identical across different architectures, so handling them
in the crash core would eliminate a lot of duplication, so do
them in the common code.
