[PATCH V2] x86/efi: Add EFI_PGT_DUMP support for x86_32, kexec

From: Sai Praneeth Prakhya
Date: Thu May 11 2017 - 15:24:10 EST


From: Sai Praneeth <sai.praneeth.prakhya@xxxxxxxxx>

EFI_PGT_DUMP, as the name suggests dumps efi page tables to dmesg during
kernel boot. This feature is very useful while debugging page
faults/null pointer dereferences to efi related addresses. Presently,
this feature is limited only to x86_64, so let's extend it to other efi
configurations like kexec kernel, efi=old_map and to x86_32 as well.
This doesn't effect normal boot path because this config option should
be used only for debug purposes.

Changes since v1:
1. Call efi_dump_pagetable() only once from efi_enter_virtual_mode() -
as suggested by Boris
