[PATCH] riscv: export kaslr offset and satp in VMCOREINFO ELF notes
Posted by Austin Kim 1 week, 4 days ago 
From: Austin Kim <austin.kim@lge.com>

The following options are required by the kdump crash utility for RISC-V 
based vmcore file:

- kaslr: If the vmcore is generated from a KASLR-enabled Linux kernel, 
         the KASLR offset is required for the crash utility to load 
         the vmcore. Without the proper kaslr option, the crash utility 
         fails to load the vmcore file.
- satp: The exact root page table address helps determine the correct base 
        PGD address.

With this patch, RISC-V VMCOREINFO ELF notes now include both kaslr 
and satp information.

First, I apologize for the inconvenience.

This link error occurs when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is disabled.
In the RISC-V kernel, kaslr_offset() is only defined under
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE.

I will submit a new patch shortly to avoid this kind of error.

BR,
Austin Kim
