Sorry for the late response, I've been on vacation and unable to read my
email.
Lot of that going around lately... ;-)
Unfortunately I don't have access to any newer ARM hardware that have larger
address space. If someone who has such hardware could provide a sample
vmlinux/vmcore files to me, I can do the implementation.
Hi Mika,
I don't of the existence of any vmcores. Do you know off-hand if kdump would
work, or whether it's currently possible that a 40-bit PAE kernel can kexec itself?
Typically in the past with new arches I have always got crash working on the
live system first.
But anyway, I appreciate the offer -- good to know...
Thanks,
Dave
