[PATCH v15 01/23] riscv: kexec_file: Fix crashk_low_res not exclude bug

From: Jinjie Ruan <hidden>
Date: 2026-06-01 09:48:45
Also in: kexec, linux-devicetree, linux-doc, linux-riscv, lkml, loongarch
Subsystem: risc-v architecture, the rest · Maintainers: Paul Walmsley, Palmer Dabbelt, Albert Ou, Linus Torvalds

As done in commit 944a45abfabc ("arm64: kdump: Reimplement crashkernel=X")
and commit 4831be702b95 ("arm64/kexec: Fix missing extra range for
crashkres_low.") for arm64, while implementing crashkernel=X,[high,low],
riscv should have excluded the "crashk_low_res" reserved ranges from
the crash kernel memory to prevent them from being exported through
/proc/vmcore, and the exclusion would need an extra crash_mem range.

Just simply tested on qemu with crashkernel=4G with kexec in [1] mentioned
in [2]. And the second kernel can be started normally.

	# dmesg | grep crash
	[    0.000000] crashkernel low memory reserved: 0xf8000000 - 0x100000000 (128 MB)
	[    0.000000] crashkernel reserved: 0x000000017fe00000 - 0x000000027fe00000 (4096 MB)
