[PATCH v5 16/31] powernv/fadump: process the crashdump by exporting it as /proc/vmcore

Hari Bathini hbathini at linux.ibm.com
Tue Aug 20 22:06:05 AEST 2019


Add support in the kernel to process the crash'ed kernel's memory
preserved during MPIPL and export it as /proc/vmcore file for the
userland scripts to filter and analyze it later.
