This patch tries to extend this syntax to support conditional reservation based on memory size, with the below syntax: fadump_reserve_mem=<range1>:<size1>[,<range2>:<size2>,...] This syntax helps using the same commandline parameter for different system memory sizes.This is basically using the crashkernel= syntax right?
Yep. One of the typical crashkernel syntax..
So can we please reuse the crashkernel= parsing code?
but crashkernel has a few other variants which don't make sense for fadump. To reuse the crashkernel parsing code for fadump, it needs little bit of refactoring. Will try to do that and respin..
