Ingo stated in the past that he's happy to ack the x86 changes as long as there's no functional change (and that's the case AFAICT). Ingo, does your conditional ack still stand? In terms of merging, I'm happy to take it all through the arm64 tree with acks from the x86 maintainers. Alternatively, with the change I mentioned for patch 8, the first 5 patches could be queued via the tip tree on a stable branch and I can base the rest of the arm64 on top. Thomas, Ingo, Peter, any preference? Thanks.

Normally the reviews stand even if the series is rebased. You only drop them if there were non-trivial changes to the patches, not just because of a rebase. Ingo acked the x86 changes in the past but there were some functional changes to the minimum alignment, so the series had to be reworked and the ack not applied. https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200806133627.GB2077191@gmail.com > Can we get this acked and placed in a build so others can test and start > using it ? If Ingo's conditional ack (no functional changes, just a move) still stands over the five x86 patches now, I'm happy to queue them all via the arm64 tree. The latest series here: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211210065533.2023-1-thunder.leizhen@huawei.com
There are following issues in arm64 kdump: 1. We use crashkernel=X to reserve crashkernel below 4G, which will fail when there is no enough low memory. 2. If reserving crashkernel above 4G, in this case, crash dump kernel will boot failure because there is no low memory available for allocation. To solve these issues, change the behavior of crashkernel=X. crashkernel=X tries low allocation in DMA zone and fall back to high allocation if it fails. We can also use "crashkernel=X,high" to select a high region above DMA zone, which also tries to allocate at least 256M low memory in DMA zone automatically and "crashkernel=Y,low" can be used to allocate specified size low memory. When reserving crashkernel in high memory, some low memory is reserved for crash dump kernel devices. So there may be two regions reserved for crash dump kernel. In order to distinct from the high region and make no effect to the use of existing kexec-tools, rename the low region as "Crash kernel (low)", and pass the low region by reusing DT property "linux,usable-memory-range". We made the low memory region as the last range of "linux,usable-memory-range" to keep compatibility with existing user-space and older kdump kernels. Besides, we need to modify kexec-tools: arm64: support more than one crash kernel regions(see [1]) Another update is document about DT property 'linux,usable-memory-range': schemas: update 'linux,usable-memory-range' node schema(see [2]) This patchset contains the following 11 patches: 0001-0004 are some x86 cleanups which prepares for making functionsreserve_crashkernel[_low]() generic. 0005 makes functions reserve_crashkernel[_low]() generic. 0006-0008 reimplements arm64 crashkernel=X. 0009-0010 adds memory for devices by DT property linux,usable-memory-range. 0011 updates the doc. Changes since [v15] - Aggregate the processing of "linux,usable-memory-range" into one function. Only patch 9-10 have been updated. Changes since [v14] - Recovering the requirement that the CrashKernel memory regions on X86 only requires 1 MiB alignment. - Combine patches 5 and 6 in v14 into one. The compilation warning fixed by patch 6 was introduced by patch 5 in v14. - As with crashk_res, crashk_low_res is also processed by crash_exclude_mem_range() in patch 7. - Due to commit b261dba2fdb2 ("arm64: kdump: Remove custom linux,usable-memory-range handling") has removed the architecture-specific code, extend the property "linux,usable-memory-range" in the platform-agnostic FDT core code. See patch 9. - Discard the x86 description update in the document, because the description has been updated by commit b1f4c363666c ("Documentation: kdump: update kdump guide"). - Change "arm64" to "ARM64" in Doc. Changes since [v13] - Rebased on top of 5.11-rc5. - Introduce config CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_RESERVE_CRASH_KERNEL. Since reserve_crashkernel[_low]() implementations are quite similar on other architectures, so have CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_RESERVE_CRASH_KERNEL in arch/Kconfig and select this by X86 and ARM64. - Some minor cleanup. Changes since [v12] - Rebased on top of 5.10-rc1. - Keep CRASH_ALIGN as 16M suggested by Dave. - Drop patch "kdump: add threshold for the required memory". - Add Tested-by from John. Changes since [v11] - Rebased on top of 5.9-rc4. - Make the function reserve_crashkernel() of x86 generic. Suggested by Catalin, make the function reserve_crashkernel() of x86 generic and arm64 use the generic version to reimplement crashkernel=X. Changes since [v10] - Reimplement crashkernel=X suggested by Catalin, Many thanks to Catalin. Changes since [v9] - Patch 1 add Acked-by from Dave. - Update patch 5 according to Dave's comments. - Update chosen schema. Changes since [v8] - Reuse DT property "linux,usable-memory-range". Suggested by Rob, reuse DT property "linux,usable-memory-range" to pass the low memory region. - Fix kdump broken with ZONE_DMA reintroduced. - Update chosen schema. Changes since [v7] - Move x86 CRASH_ALIGN to 2M Suggested by Dave and do some test, move x86 CRASH_ALIGN to 2M. - Update Documentation/devicetree/bindings/chosen.txt. Add corresponding documentation to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/chosen.txt suggested by Arnd. - Add Tested-by from Jhon and pk. Changes since [v6] - Fix build errors reported by kbuild test robot. Changes since [v5] - Move reserve_crashkernel_low() into kernel/crash_core.c. - Delete crashkernel=X,high. - Modify crashkernel=X,low. If crashkernel=X,low is specified simultaneously, reserve spcified size low memory for crash kdump kernel devices firstly and then reserve memory above 4G. In addition, rename crashk_low_res as "Crash kernel (low)" for arm64, and then pass to crash dump kernel by DT property "linux,low-memory-range". - Update Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/kdump.rst. Changes since [v4] - Reimplement memblock_cap_memory_ranges for multiple ranges by Mike. Changes since [v3] - Add memblock_cap_memory_ranges back for multiple ranges. - Fix some compiling warnings. Changes since [v2] - Split patch "arm64: kdump: support reserving crashkernel above 4G" as two. Put "move reserve_crashkernel_low() into kexec_core.c" in a separate patch. Changes since [v1]: - Move common reserve_crashkernel_low() code into kernel/kexec_core.c. - Remove memblock_cap_memory_ranges() i added in v1 and implement that in fdt_enforce_memory_region(). There are at most two crash kernel regions, for two crash kernel regions case, we cap the memory range [min(regs[*].start), max(regs[*].end)] and then remove the memory range in the middle.
