Subject: [PATCH 9/10] kdump: read previous kernel's memory
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2005 18:59:44 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051117132944.GM3981@in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20051117132850.GL3981@in.ibm.com>



o Moving the crash_dump.c file to arch dependent part as 
  kmap_atomic_pfn is specific to i386 and highmem may not 
  exist in other archs.

o Use ioremap for x86_64 to map the previous kernel memory.

o In copy_oldmem_page(), we now directly copy to the user/kernel
  buffer and avoid the unneccesary copy to a kmalloc'd page.
