[PATCH v6 11/12] powerpc/fsl_booke/kaslr: export offset in VMCOREINFO ELF notes

From: Jason Yan <yanaijie@huawei.com>
Date: 2019-08-09 10:07:54
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

Like all other architectures such as x86 or arm64, include KASLR offset
in VMCOREINFO ELF notes to assist in debugging. After this, we can use
crash --kaslr option to parse vmcore generated from a kaslr kernel.

Note: The crash tool needs to support --kaslr too.
