** Description changed:
[Impact]
* There is a typo in ERRMSG of function show_mem_usage affecting
Xenial/Zesty, Debian and makedumpfile upstream.
This should be :
"show_mem_usage: No memory is reserved for crashkernel!"
instead of :
"show_mem_usage: No memory is reserved for crashkenrel!"
The typo is located here in src code :
# filename : makedumpfile.c
-
int show_mem_usage(void)
{
uint64_t vmcoreinfo_addr, vmcoreinfo_len;
struct cycle cycle = {0};
if (!is_crashkernel_mem_reserved()) {
==> ERRMSG("No memory is reserved for crashkenrel!\n");
return FALSE;
}
-
[Test Case]
* Take a system with no crashkernel memory reservation set
* run command : makedumpfile --mem-usage /proc/kcore
* Error message :
show_mem_usage: No memory is reserved for crashkenrel!
[Regression Potential]
* No regression, it is a trivial change with no behavioural change.
[Other Info]
* Upstream:
Patch has been submitted upstream (ML :[email protected])
+ - Patch will be merge in upstream version 1.6.2 # See comment #4
* Debian bug :
