Hello Thanks but I have already read those documentation. I search to know why the kernel cannot find 8M of memory ouf of 128. Regards

crashkernel reservation failed - No suitable area found on a cortina/gemini SoC
Hello I try to do kexec on a cortina/gemini SoC. On a "normal" boot, kexec fail to find memory so I added crashkernel=8M to cmdline. (kernel size is ~6M).
