Yes, everything. |
Due to the possible huge size of the kdump on a machine with a lot of RAM (even when using the minimum kdump option, each dump can take up several GB of data, which leads to not enough space for logs and user data in /persist) and the general uselessness of the kdump for our kernel debugging process (usually the dmesgs kernel is enough for debugging), this patch disables the generation of kdumps and keeps dmesgs only.
