Subject: kdump: kdump can't boot in this case
Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:34:26 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <52561232.2060505@huawei.com> (raw)
I write a module, and find kdump can't boot in this case.
kernel version is 3.12, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5620
struct timer_list g_timer;
void tmrhnd_invtssfault(unsigned long data)
{
long __res;
printk(KERN_EMERG "invalid TSS fault in interrupt context.\n");
__asm__ volatile("int $0x0A" : "=a"(__res):);
}
{
...
init_timer(&g_timer);
g_timer.expires = jiffies + 10;
g_timer.data = 0;
g_timer.function = tmrhnd_invtssfault;
add_timer(&g_timer);
...
}
If access NULL pointer instead of "__asm__ volatile("int $0x0A" : "=a"(__res):);"
in tmrhnd_invtssfault(), kdump can boot.
And if not use timer, just do "__asm__ volatile("int $0x0A" : "=a"(__res):);" only
once in module, kdump can boot too.
