Subject: [PATCH 29/29] crashdump-linear-raw-format-dump-file-access
Date: Wed, 19 Jan 2005 0:31:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <crashdump-linear-raw-format-dump-file-access-1106119897387@ebiederm.dsl.xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <crashdump-elf-format-dump-file-access-11061198971254@ebiederm.dsl.xmission.com>


From: Hariprasad Nellitheertha <hari@in.ibm.com>

This patch contains the code that enables us to access the previous kernel's
memory as /dev/oldmem.
