[PATCH v6 7/8] vmcore: calculate vmcore file size from buffer sizeand total size of vmcore objects
From: HATAYAMA Daisuke
Date: Wed May 15 2013 - 05:06:31 EST
The previous patches newly added holes before each chunk of memory and
the holes need to be count in vmcore file size. There are two ways to
count file size in such a way:
1) supporse m as a poitner to the last vmcore object in vmcore_list.
, then file size is (m->offset + m->size), or
2) calculate sum of size of buffers for ELF header, program headers,
ELF note segments and objects in vmcore_list.
Although 1) is more direct and simpler than 2), 2) seems better in
that it reflects internal object structure of /proc/vmcore. Thus, this
patch changes get_vmcore_size_elf{64, 32} so that it calculates size
in the way of 2).
