Hi Eric, Thank you for your quick response!
>Disabling interrupts is fine, Thanks! >However that call to kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC) is a bug as it introduces >locks >into a path that should not be taking locks. I'd like to find a way that kexec coexists with kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC) because kmsg_dump is a useful troubleshooting feature as well. So, I will improve kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC) if there are some bugs. Could you please let me know your concern? It is helpful for me if you have an example scenario kexec fails. >Nothing in the crash_kexec path should even have the option of blocking. Do you mean I need to change kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC) to lockless?
