[PATCH v3 21/21] vmcore: introduce mmap_vmcore()

From: HATAYAMA Daisuke
Date: Mon Mar 18 2013 - 22:32:09 EST


This patch introduces mmap_vmcore().

If flag MEM_TYPE_CURRENT_KERNEL is set, remapped is the buffer on the
2nd kernel. If not set, remapped is some area in old memory.

Neither writable nor executable mapping is permitted even with
mprotect(). Non-writable mapping is also requirement of
remap_pfn_range() when mapping linear pages on non-consequtive
physical pages; see is_cow_mapping().

On x86-32 PAE kernels, mmap() supports at most 16TB memory only. This
limitation comes from the fact that the third argument of
remap_pfn_range(), pfn, is of 32-bit length on x86-32: unsigned long.
