From 06a7f711246b081afc21fff859f1003f1f2a0fbc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amerigo Wang Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2009 16:47:46 -0800 Subject: kexec: premit reduction of the reserved memory size Implement shrinking the reserved memory for crash kernel, if it is more than enough. For example, if you have already reserved 128M, now you just want 100M, you can do: # echo $((100*1024*1024)) > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size Note, you can only do this before loading the crash kernel.
