When CPU or memory is hot un/plugged, or off/onlined, the crash elfcorehdr, which describes the CPUs and memory in the system, must also be updated. A new elfcorehdr is generated from the available CPUs and memory and replaces the existing elfcorehdr. The segment containing the elfcorehdr is identified at run-time in crash_core:crash_handle_hotplug_event(). No modifications to purgatory (see 'kexec: exclude elfcorehdr from the segment digest') or boot_params (as the elfcorehdr= capture kernel command line parameter pointer remains unchanged and correct) are needed, just elfcorehdr. For kexec_file_load(), the elfcorehdr segment size is based on NR_CPUS and CRASH_MAX_MEMORY_RANGES in order to accommodate a growing number of CPU and memory resources. For kexec_load(), the userspace kexec utility needs to size the elfcorehdr segment in the same/similar manner. To accommodate kexec_load() syscall in the absence of kexec_file_load() syscall support, prepare_elf_headers() and dependents are moved outside of CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE.

Linux kernel
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or
make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
