Confirmed that this patch does resolve the boot issue with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y for me. Thank you for the patch and hopefully it will get included in -rc7. Thanks. Robert LeBlanc PGP Fingerprint 79A2 9CA4 6CC4 45DD A904 C70E E654 3BB2 FA62 B9F1 On Wed, Nov 23, 2016 at 1:53 PM

Looks like Linus pushed cd3caefb4663e3811d37cc2afad3cce642d60061 a few days ago effectively disabling modversions. I like this fix much better, probably need an additional patch to reverse this new one as well. You can add me as well if needed. Acked-by: Robert LeBlanc Tested-by: Robert LeBlanc

ting how much crashkernel can reserve? I also verified on my test desktop with 8GB of RAM that setting crashkernel=1024M also fails to allocate memory with 4.9-rc8, but works fine with 128M for instance. Thanks, ---- Robert LeBlanc PGP Fingerprint 79A2 9CA4 6CC4 45DD A904 C70E E654 3BB2 FA62 B9F1
