I would like to get the list's opinion about which kernel tree I should use to backport the kexec/kdump functionality into a Montavista 2.6.10 kernel tree.
I am in a project that is wed to the MVL tool chain/kernel tree for now. MVL isn't going to support this function until about the middle of next year (2.6.16 kernel). I believe that I have functional change sets (which none apply cleanly) from 2.6.9 through 2.6.12. I have actually been able to get this partially working from the 2.6.9-mm1 but it doesn't get me a valid core dump (kexec -e and kexec -p both work). The file is marked correctly as a core but it is the size of all memory and gdb determine anything about the file. The lastest version of crash (with and outof data gdb) doesn't understand the file either. I am using the kexec-tools-1.101 with the kdump patch and gcc 3.4.3. Also, is there other resources I should be looking at to examine the core dump. thank you for your time, Larry Brigman _______________________________________________ fastboot mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/fastboot
