[PATCH] arm: make kexec depend on MMU
From: Michal Hocko
Date: Fri Aug 25 2017 - 02:40:09 EST
arm nommu config with KEXEC enabled doesn't compile
arch/arm/kernel/setup.c: In function 'reserve_crashkernel':
arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:1005:25: error: 'SECTION_SIZE' undeclared (first
use in this function)
crash_size, SECTION_SIZE);
since 61603016e212 ("ARM: kexec: fix crashkernel= handling") which is
over one year without anybody noticing. I have only noticed beause of
my testing nommu config which somehow gained CONFIG_KEXEC without
an intention. This suggests that nobody is actually using KEXEC
on nommu ARM configs. It is even a question whether kexec works with
nommu.
Make KEXEC depend on MMU to make this clear. If somebody wants to enable
there will be probably more things to take care.
