No specific reason. Just our current usage of vmcoreinfo_data is enough to cover our need. I don't see why you can't enlarge it to, e.g 2 pages or more. Have you tried? E.g allocate more pages and change VMCOREINFO_BYTES to the corresponding value. _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
