<+How a kernel client driver can register region with minidump <+------------------------------------------------------------ <+ <+Client driver can use ``qcom_minidump_region_register`` API's to register <+and ``qcom_minidump_region_unregister`` to unregister their region from <+minidump driver. <+ <+Client needs to fill their region by filling ``qcom_minidump_region`` <+structure object which consists of the region name, region's virtual <+and physical address and its size.
Hi, Mukesh, wish you a good holiday :) I have the following idea, please help me to assess whether this can be implemented or not. As we all know, most of the kernel objects are allocated by the slab sub-system.I wonder if we can dump all memory keeped by the slab sub-system? If so, we got most of the kernel objects which will be helpful to fix problems when we run with system issues. How can we do this? From the description above, I think we should register one region for each slab, for each slab will have some pages, and the memory between each slab is non-continuous. As we all know, there are millions of slabs in the system, so if we dump slabs in this way, it will introduce a heavy overhead. I am not very familiar with qualcomm minidump, maybe my thought is wrong. Looking forward to your reply! Best Regards Ruipeng
