2 * kernel/crash_dump.c - Memory preserving reboot related code.
4 * Created by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
5 * Original code moved from kernel/crash.c
6 * Original code comment copied from the i386 version of this file
9 #include <linux/errno.h>
10 #include <linux/types.h>
13 #include <asm/uaccess.h>
16 * copy_oldmem_page - copy one page from "oldmem"
17 * @pfn: page frame number to be copied
18 * @buf: target memory address for the copy; this can be in kernel address
19 * space or user address space (see @userbuf)
20 * @csize: number of bytes to copy
21 * @offset: offset in bytes into the page (based on pfn) to begin the copy
22 * @userbuf: if set, @buf is in user address space, use copy_to_user(),
23 * otherwise @buf is in kernel address space, use memcpy().
25 * Copy a page from "oldmem". For this page, there is no pte mapped
26 * in the current kernel. We stitch up a pte, similar to kmap_atomic.
28 * Calling copy_to_user() in atomic context is not desirable. Hence first
29 * copying the data to a pre-allocated kernel page and then copying to user
30 * space in non-atomic context.
