By splitting CRASH_CORE into CRASH_RESERVE and VMCORE_INFO, and cleaning
up the dependency of FA_DMUMP on CRASH_DUMP, now we can rearrange CRASH_DUMP
to depend on KEXEC_CORE, and select CRASH_RESERVE and VMCORE_INFO.
KEXEC_CORE won't select CRASH_RESERVE and VMCORE_INFO any more because
KEXEC_CO
In kdump kernel, /proc/vmcore is an elf file which maps the crashed kernel's
read_from_oldmemmemory content. Its elf header is constructed in 1st kernel and
passed
to kdump kernel via elfcorehdr_addr. Config CRASH_DUMP enables the code
of 1st kernel's old memory accessing in different architecture
Now only vmcoreinfo handling related code is in crash_core.c, so do the
renaming as follows:
kernel/{crash_core.c => vmcore_info.c}
arch/xxx/kernel/{crash_core.c => vmcore_info.c}
include/linux/{crash_core.h => vmcore_info.h}
CONFIG_CRASH_CORE => CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO
And also update the old if
Both kdump and fa_dump of ppc rely on crashkernel reservation. Move the
relevant codes into separate files:
crash_reserve.c, include/linux/crash_reserve.h.
And also add config item CRASH_RESERVE to control its enabling of the
codes. And update confit items which has relationship with crashkernel

In commit 6f991cc363a3 ("crash: move a few code bits to setup support
of crash hotplug"), some elfcorehdr processing codes were moved to
kernel/crash_core.c so that they can be shared by kexec_load and
kexec_file_load interface. And later in commit 247262756121 ("crash: add

Previously, LKP reported a building error. When investigating, it can't
be resolved reasonablly with the present messy kdump config items.
