Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] Workaround for segfault by "makedumpfile --mem-usage"
|
||
|
on PPC64
|
||
|
|
||
|
"makedumpfile --mem-usage /proc/kcore" can cause a segmentation fault on
|
||
|
PPC64, because the readmem() of the following code path uses cache
|
||
|
before it's initialized in initial().
|
||
|
|
||
|
show_mem_usage
|
||
|
get_page_offset
|
||
|
get_versiondep_info_ppc64
|
||
|
readmem
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
initial
|
||
|
cache_init
|
||
|
|
||
|
The get_page_offset() is needed to get vmcoreinfo from /proc/kcore data,
|
||
|
so we can avoid calling it when a vmcoreinfo exists in the ELF NOTE
|
||
|
segment of /proc/kcore, i.e. on Linux 4.19 and later.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(Note: for older kernels, we will need another way to fix it.)
