Subject: [PATCH] mips: kdump: Crash kernel should be able to see old memories
Date:   Mon, 19 Apr 2021 18:56:47 +0800
Message-Id: <1618829807-12522-1-git-send-email-tangyouling@loongson.cn>
Precedence: bulk

From: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com>

kexec-tools use mem=X@Y to pass usable memories to crash kernel, but in
commit a94e4f24ec836c8984f83959 ("MIPS: init: Drop boot_mem_map") all
BIOS passed memories are removed by early_parse_mem(). I think this is
reasonable for a normal kernel but not for a crash kernel, because a
crash kernel should be able to see all old memories, even though it is
not supposed to use them.

Fixes: a94e4f24ec836c8984f83959 ("MIPS: init: Drop boot_mem_map")
