From 76ef964c78797f9baed7c2f9a58f696e86d8a048 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Holzheu Date: Thu, 22 Apr 2010 17:17:07 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [S390] zcore: Fix reipl device detection The reipl device information is passed from the kernel to zfcpdump using a pointer in the lowcore (0xe00) that points to the reipl information Currently if that pointer is not zero, we copy the reipl information. If the pointer is not initialized and points outside the accessible memory, it can happen that the memory copy fails. In that case we currently stop the initialization of zcore which leads to a failing kernel dump. The correct behavior is to disable the reipl after dump and continue with zcore intialization.
