[PATCH v6 02/36] powerpc/fadump: add helper functions

Hari Bathini hbathini at linux.ibm.com
Thu Sep 12 00:46:36 AEST 2019


Add helper functions to setup & free CPU notes buffer and to find if a
given memory area is contiguous. Also, use boolean as return type for
the function that finds if boot memory area is contiguous. While at
it, save the virtual address of CPU notes buffer instead of physical
address as virtual address is used often.

* New patch to add a few helper functions. Also, save vaddr for CPU notes
  buffer in fw_dump structure.
