From 398ab1fcb960ea0800f40a9c36355855e3e23389 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Ellerman Date: Sun, 4 Dec 2005 18:39:23 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Add CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP This patch adds a Kconfig variable, CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP, which configures the built kernel for use as a Kdump kernel. Currently "all" this involves is changing the value of KERNELBASE to 32 MB.
