This implies a root cause. (See arch/arm64/mm/init.c) Hint: add memblock=debug to kernel parameters of crash dump kernel Thanks for the hint. I will try this out One thing which comes to my mind is that I am using the production kernel image for crash kernel and Documentation/kdump doesn't mention that arm64 supports that. Can this be a cause for the above problem? Regards Harry++
