I tired this patch series with mentioned Geoff's kexec patches and
your kdump patches, but unfortunately it doesn't work for me.
While I can successfully load and kexec the kernel ('kexec --load' +
'kexec -e'), same combination of kernel+ramdisk+dtb doesn't boot
if I do kdump combination ('kexec -p' + sysrq crash), there is no
any output after sysrq crash trace.
Unfortunately I don't have any debugger here for deep investigation
of this issue.
Also for some reason in case of 'load and kexec the kernel' it
takes 1-2 minutes to start booting after I do kexec -e, need to
investigate it further.
Which hardware do you use for validating your patches?
Also, could you please share exact commands you use for
kdump validation?
Best regaerds,
Ruslan
